  1. He got the box we recommended to you Jason!!!! Now you GOTSTA go out and get one!!!
  2. Hahahahaha nice Mike!!!!! Your going to love that saw. I was using it today, it's a great little machine! For me.... 2 - 40" Jet Bar Clamps 4 - 31" Jet Bar Clamps 4 - 24" Jet Bar Clamps 1k Kreg Screws A Sheffield Coping Saw.
  3. So I got to play around with the set today a little bit. Nice guns, still haven't tried the impact out but the drill is a real powerhouse and distributes battery juice really well. Here are some pics of the guns next to my M12 Fuel impact and my new Bosch PS22-2A which I absolutely love.... I would add the guns are very compact, the grips are very comfortable and the Hilti screwdriver body is actually shorter than my little Bosch. A bit taller but very impressive.
  4. Are you making Christmas trees Comp?
  5. Perfect location. Guys. Tools. Money. Equipment rental. Happy Ending. All is well that ENDS well!
  6. @kdv International tool had them but they are sold out now. Check Woodcraft tomorrow as well as Rockler and Acme. Rockler has free shipping so it might be cheaper.
  7. No problem there kornomaniac, Iand truthfully you wouldn't have known what was going on with him regardless. The guy has issues with TIA and that's all. No reason to elaborate and I certainly won't bad mouth him. Doesn't mean he can't review a tool and truthfully he must have just gotten these in to do a review as they are new to the USA and there aren't any videos out there thus far..
  8. He has been banned from the forum. I won't go into details, but he is not welcome as a member of the Crew here any longer.
  9. That's pretty funny RC, you gotta make a reflector something or other for Dan now
  10. Got 4 - 31" Jet clamps and 2 - 24"ers too!
  11. Happy Thanksgiving guys and gals! For those of you who do not celebrate Happy Thrusday! One more day to the weekend!! My favorite Holiday of the year, time to spend with family and reflect on all of the blessings in our lives. Have a great and safe holiday with your families!
  12. Wow. Looks like I need some graphite. Right friggin' now!!!!!!! Huminahuminhuminahuminahumina........bow chukka wo wow!
  13. Are those the new Improved Milwaukee bits the sales rep was saying we're made here?
  14. It sounds like you got your sliding needs all taken care of with the 20v. That 716 saw is supposedly the bees knees for saws. My Father in Law runs the 12" Bosch and loves it. He does trim work mostly and the 12" suits his needs. Congratulations on the new saw and stand! I know BigMike loves his!

I have a regular Mr Heater kerosene unit I use in my base,met shop but it can get a little stinky. This thing actually looks pretty cool. One bad review you should look at .
  16. Thanks Mike! Also, the drill driver is a HAMMER drill, not just a standard drill driver.
  17. Here the unboxing. Really nice tools. Super comfortable. Not going to drop my CXS but these look to be promising!
  18. I would definitely second that. I don't have any but I did play around with the Ridgid boxes. Really solid design, much like the Toughsystem boxes from Dewalt.
  19. Hey RC. I have a Grizzly air cleaner and two Festool HEPA units attached to most of the tools. The lathe and this guy will not be on DC. The jointer spits out chips so their is no dust associated with it. The lathe does have finer stuff but there's not a lot of options out there. I'm actually going to have a small garbage can set up in front of the Powermatic to collect the chips as they fall out. When I move my shop into my planned outside shop next year hopefully, I will have a dedicated DC unit that will attach to all of my tools.
  20. Although my point of view is a little different from Andrull's, I actually love the l boxxes too. I have a half dozen and my only real gripe is the stack connectors are a little hard to line up perfectly (probably user error) whereas my systainer t locs are a piece of cake. You slide them on top of the bottom one, turn the latch....locked. The Makpacs and older Systainers uses the plastic tabs to positively click onto these nubs. They don't come loose. I can see what Andrull's is saying about the latches too and like Andrull, I have not had any problems with the latches letting go. They seem to be made of a flexible plastic that "feels" like it could break but mine never have! I love the footprint of the l boxx and they are slightly larger. Also Sortimo has a ton of variations for their boxes. All in all expensive like the Systainers but you are buying into a line of storage that will exceed your expectations.
  21. No problem Illini, and I agree with Turner too. My old Systainers open hard. The Makpac I have opens a little easier but it's still a hard pull on the tabs but they don't accidentally open either. I would agree that the prices are right for those tool boxes though! And it's nice knowing I can stick all of these together regardless of color. And if you get real rich you can order the a Sprtainer with all of the drawers. Super nice boxes! If you do decide to get into that line and decide you want the Sortainer, I would order it from Amazon Germany. I did, had it within three days and saved nearly forty dollars!
  22. The Makpac cases are made by Tanos and are what the older Systainers were I have one, decent case, I have a few of the older Systainers too, not a fan of the latch but they are great cases especially for stacking! All the boxes including Festools Systainers and the Makpacs interlock!
  23. Nice job Hilti, I haven't gotten mine in yet but.....
