Did you ever watch that episode of Big Bang Theory with the robots??

Nice stuff Jimbo! Look awesome!

To quote the Simpsons.....(really....any character) I Liiike it!!

Oh and @Andrull , not a stupid question. It really is quite confusing!

There is Skil and Skilsaw now so your absolutely right there! Skilsaw has been rebranded pro grade and they are making high end circular saws not whereas you can get. Skil brand saw that might not be up to snuff! I don't buy Skil brand tools but the Skilsaw I have is a totally different story. I think I added the link, I'm not sure you can review it in your country but those saws are really super nice saws. Absolutely love my SPT77WM magnesium saw. Super nice cutter!

Nice score Comp!

I like the K bodies but I only have two 12"s. I really like the Jets though. Solid and I'll keep buying them as I can. If I happen to score a deal on the k bodies I'll pick them up though. They are nice

Today started a reinforced heavy duty clamp rack for my growing clamp collection. I started with my TS55REQ and a 4x8 sheet of sheathing 1/2" and a smile. Now.......I've got two 48" x7" racks doubled up and gluing. We will see where this leads too shortly

I've had mine for quite some time now and it sinks framing nails pretty darn deep .

Mikey that is absolutely awesome dude! And working with Dad, doesn't get any better than that!

Looks like your a pretty proud dad Fazzman, congratulation dude!

Just got my last shipment of Jets in..... 2-40" Parallel Clamps 4-30" 5-24" and my Knipex End Cutters. I'm not sure if you guys remember the big bedroom Reno my wife and I did last winter but I got a butt load of 65 year old knotty pine wainscoting e bedded with nails I want to re use. I watched a video the other day of how to pull those nails out and that's what I got!

No problem Moze, it's a piece of cake ordering from them and the link is one that will ship to the USA. Have a great weekend!

Nice unboxing Jimbo. Looks pretty slick. I'm still waiting for the teal one but that looks awesome!!

I've bought from UK and Germany, easy from Amazon no fees.

Hey @Moze easy as snot, make sure you do the faster shipping, I added it to my cart and it came up to $154 US no other fees either!!!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ryobi-R18SDS-0-Cordless-Rotary-Hammer/dp/B00VEU9JZC @Moze Amazon UK has it for sale and can get it here Wedensday. Hammer only function too which is what I have been looking for. They also have the Makita for a little bit more and heck of a lot less that Amazon USA

Truthfully, my first drill I got to is my CXS over my T18 or my Bosch 18v. Now those darn Hiltis are making their way onto the assembly table

I've got the clamps, that's a great deal. I heard the centipede is awesome!!!

I'm on the path to recovery dude. Admission of the problem is the path to healing

Your wrong Fazzman. It's a community of sick bastards who crave a constant fix for the tool addictions with no support network resulting in a continuous downwards circle into complete and utter tool destruction. How the heck am I supposed to eat cereal with an impact gun????

Makita also offers a 7-1/4 saw. The thing is a beast.

If your a cabinet maker I'd really look at Bosch, Makita and Dewalt. They have more cordless options for woodworking. I have the Makita 18v brushless barrel grip jigsaw, 18v sander and they are great cordless options. My Bosch MXH brushless multi tool is phenomenal and my corded ROS65VCL sander from Bosch is pretty darn close to my two Festool sanders. As far as the different lines of tools, I get what I need. If they aren't offered from one brand or another, I get another. But my shop is in my base,net and I don't have to haul a ton of tools around. Can you imagine taking my Powermatic jointer out of the shop or my 14" Rikon bandsaw to a work area??

One more thing. A lot of guys here are hardcore fans of their respective brands. But you need to be honest with yourself and ask what it is it that you want. Brand specific guys will go on an on about one brand or another. But what do you need? My shop is diverse. If your a metal fabricator or a commercial installer, a plumber or an electrician. Your needs are different from mine. I just bought a 12v Hilti set that is pretty cool. I actually like it. But I'd take my Festool CXS and Bosch PS22-A2 over those cool little guns. I don't particularly like the Milwaukees, great tools, super powerful. Just a little big for me,and the Makita 12vs are obsolete....or they were until they just popped out some awesome tools. Dewalts 12v line is awesome but limited. I'm hopeful in my Hilti set and am thoroughly impressed with the tools but they don't have any other 12v offerings....yet. Just remember, what do you need. I've got a Dewalt framer, Ryobi Brad and a Makita pin nailer, all cordless. A Makita brushless grinder and a Bosch multi tool. The list goes on. But I won't tout any one brand (except Festool....I mean......really?) because I'm a woodworker and everyone knows that in the cordless line currently Bosch and Makita own that realm. Dewalt is catching up quick and Milwaukee will some day see the merit in increasing their lineup....heck they just introduced a cordless planer for Pete sake!

Loaded question beckoning a BUNCH of loaded answers. Hope your wearing boots Seriously. It's up to you. What do you want your tools to do? What do you do? Do you work in the trades? If so are you in mechanical or carpentry? Are you a woodworker? I have a ton of different brands but Dewalt, Bosch and Makita are my favorites. They all fall behind my Festool tools. Jason mentioned Coptools article. I just read it and it was really informative.. Also welcome to the forum.
