in that color it would be acceptable to buy Makita
It's certainly better than the white versions!

makita did not have the nicest colors of power tools out there. Through they are good tools. But I have to agree the black is one of the better color schemes they have. The white was ok, better then the makita blue.
noooo
but first Makita copied the Panasonic color scheme with their white series and now they copy the Panasonic EY 7441 Black series with that drill.
But it´s ok
just a observation. I like your drill. nice color

I have never once bought or not bought a tool based on color. If I need it or itis a good deal I will buy it regardless of color. I guess thats why I have green, orange , red and black snap on hand tools. Same with my drills. I do not care about the color. I love my makita drills. My Snap On guy was floored when I bought red torx drivers and green screwdrivers. I told him I bought them to use not look at. I did not want to wait a week just to have them match.

I agree with you, but I may have to draw the line at this one.
Don't think Panasonic have made any in that colour before!

If that was the last one and I needed it I would still buy it. If I had a choice in color I would not. I would then give it to my wife then buy another
Altec.....You need to give that mini to jeff now since he has that driver
Nice pick up to your addition Jeff.
I had mine first, so he has to give his to me.
noooo

For the life of me, I've really been confused about why Panasonics battery powered tools aren't more prolific.

Altec, ain't gonna happen! haha

This time it seems Makita was first because nobody else dares to make a power tool in that color
Hitachi has a nice selction of colors, unfortunately only in Japan

Now those are pretty cool!
I'm surprised some of the tool manufacturers haven't come up with interchangeable parts to allow tool customization!.

You can get the Hitachi green in the US. My good friend uses one at the junkyard all the time. Nice little thing.

Toptul long metric combination wrench set arrived today.
Feel good in the hand, few blemishes to the finish but overall a good purchase for £35 GBP.

Got some gearwrench spark plug sockets and a set of 3/8 vim locking extensions. I can tell straight from taking them out I hate the vim. They feel super cheap and I thought the handles where removable but you hook the ratchet at the bottom of the handle. Worthless in my book might throw them up on ebay.

I was getting an order from the Vim website of the clearance items (socket rails) and saw this for 9.50 and thought ... why not?
have to agree with your comments, but think i'll keep them, i figure i might use them once a month

Going to be getting these as starter boxes for my boys. $60 for both and they look to be in good condition. I feel it is a good deal.

Craigslist is pretty poor in the UK for tools and such.

Picked up some non-marring pry tools and scrapers from the snappy guy. The pliers and cutters are from eBay.

Does snap-on make two different non-marring pry tool sets?
