  1. Sandpaper sheets with loop/velcro backing?

    Yea they really screw us over on anything multitool related the blades are insanely expensive also. I would do the same thing that's a nice bit of money your saving one of those rolls is a lifetime of sand paper for some people.

    Thats a ton of money you are saving. Say you go to Wal-mart and buy a five pack of whatever grit of sandpaper. They are 8-12 bucks a pop.

    Hey everyone, thanks for the warm welcome!

     

    Aus seem to have a very wide selection of trade tool brands. I would say the popular tools are Makita, Milwaukee, Bosch and Dewalt. But Hitachi, Metabo and Panasonic are also widely available. If you look in the right places even HIlti and Festool etc aren't hard to find.

     

    I'd love to play around with some Milwaukee and Metabo, but having 2 platforms is probably already a bit grand.

     

    ETS7345: i see the dcd790 is your favourite tool. does it have enough torque for most tasks (say even auger bits up to 25mm)?

     

    It has all the torque that I need. I use it for building furniture for the most part. But from what I have seen online it can handle just about anything you throw at it minus masonry work of course.

    I went to lowes today, i am happy and pissed off at the same time, im pissed off because Lowes has brought in china southwire which is complete shit compared to knipex greenlee, i am happy because all the knipex greenlee is on clearence. I got this insulated sethttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000X4PV0C for $39!! Regular price 108, i basically stole it, should i sell it or keep it, and i also picked up some of the deft semi gloss laquer.

    Nice score Chase! I never seem to have any luck finding good deals like this.

    That's pretty awesome. I've got a 68 Cub Lo-Boy, a 62 Cub Cadet Original (currently disassembled), and a brand new Kubota BX2370. Love those old Farmalls or anything IH really. My Lo-Boy needs a hydraulic seal kit (I have the kit, just haven't had time to put it in), and a rear main seal. It had some carb issues but I think I've gotten them lined out. I'll probably sell the Lo-Boy as I really have no need for it.

    Those cub originals are sweet little garden tractors. I have driven a couple of them. I love my red tractors. You know what they say, "If it ain't red leave it in the shed!" Hopefully there aren't any green lovers in here! :)
