  1. Yeah I have an old plastic tool box that I keep all my cleaning stuff in. I figured with the camo it'd be cool but this is too nice a bag to destroy with oil and breakfree!!!
  2. This tool comes with the BC630 Kruton. It's a 30minute rapid charger. The wireless system required the battery to be configured a little differently but you can charge wireless batteries on the regular chargers! Awesome innovation with these tools!
  3. I think lasers are actually a great benefit for sawing. My Kapex is NOT a beginners saw and I have two of them on that. Some people like having that definitive red line especially when the saw might not have a blower and that thin pencil line is obscured by sawdust. My corded Skilsaw Sidewinder doesn't have laser and it's a pro grade saw but they solve the sawdust problem with a great blower that pushes the saw dust out of your line of site and a great port for getting rid of the saw dust in the rear. No doubt though, having a positive line to follow isn't a bad thing either and when a blower or DC isn't available, I wouldn't mind having something to follow.
  4. Yeah and if you look at the side bar it says PROMO. Screwed up. I'd take the plunge and see what I get but money is money.
  5. Right? I'm like paid, done almost hit the PayPal button then when you look it describes everything in the kit, has the model number etc. but the first description is the flashlight.
  6. Everything indicated the impact but if you look at description it says flashlight!
  7. Verify before you buy, the description is the friggin' flashlight!!!!
  8. Dude, have you ever bought from them before?
  9. Yeah Jason, it's really awesome. Samantha's camera and my binoculars held up without any dust which is honestly amazing. I couldn't see crap on some of the trails from the kick up from my brothers Polaris. What's really nice is the rubber bottom is formed so when you open the main pouch no matter what, the bottom opens up into basically a chamber with reinforced walls so there's a lot of room for whatever you may need. I had though about using this as a range bag but it's been keeping my lasers and other electronics in great shape and I decided to keep it for its intended purpose but when we planned this trip I was like."nah, this has to go with me"!
  10. Not only that but they have promised to keep it that way. Really good way of doing things!
  11. Hey Ricky, sorry just saw your reply! Nope! Just a nut setter after I drilled it out with the Tapcon bits the bits kind of suck though. I hadn't thought to get something like that so thank you Sir!
  12. So in checking out that charger, that thing is awesome. It's powerfully fast with the 4.0s and the fan is like the Makita charger. Super powerful. This is doubly awesome because I've got the wireless chargers and batteries but they are 2.0 batteries. These guys will charge just as quickly. Really awesome drill. Thanks Mike! Love doing the Unboxing videos. I'm hoping to post one of this and the Dewlat DCD985 today or tomorrow. Bosch is really kicking it with this brushed super heavy duty model. The chuck and ring are super strong.
  13. I'd love to try one out but.....I'm all drilled out. Now that I've got the new Bosch I have more than enough to conquer any and I mean ANY project. I do like that new Ryobi drill they came out with with the shoe LED light at the base. Looks li,e a vast improvement over the last model and the magnetic base is a cool idea.
  14. Well it's going to be spotting over 90 today with our traditional NE humidity so Chris will be in the basement shop after a small birthday party for a friends daughter. Guaranteed cooler!
  15. Cody, don't know why I didn't see this post, probably so many new posts popping up every couple of hours, it's hard to keep up! But regardless, that is one heck of work set! How're your NiCads holding up and have you switched to the Nano LI 18v batteries for the pod style tools?
  16. It's not an issue with the LI batteries but you are correct on NiCads. Ask my MagLight. I'm on my third battery in two years.I would add though....one of the guys posted on here that his shop got torched by a defective power strip that his battery charger was on. Ever since I read the post my butt clamped shut and I ran down in the shop and cut power to my power strips I ONLY run the power strip and charge batteries when I'm home now
  17. Hey Jason! The pack did awesome! Held up li,e a champ. I think I'm going to ditch my we site gear and keep it in a systainer from now on. The armored upper section kept the huge amounts of dust out too as did the main compartment. And it was REALLY dusty out there! I posted a pic on my other post "it's not a Festool" and you can see my wife and I completely covered in dust and the pack strapped to the back of my Can Am Outlander.
  18. Well, if it's cutting and not binding I'd think you'd be okay. Are blade changes going alright? How "used" is it? What orbital setting have you got it in? Have you tried other orbital settings? If it got a lot of use you might want to change the brushes in the saw. http://www.ereplacementparts.com/brush-p-832116.html I'm not sure which model of saw you have but after researching, here is the brush for the Type 1 Dewalt DW317 Orbital saw. The link is to e replacements which is an awesome company to do business with. Outside of that unfortunately....I haven't a clue as I've never used that guy before! Good luck dude, and keep us posted on what you find out!
  19. I can't comment on your saw Graves as I don't have it. I did recently aquire the new pro brand from Skil. The Skilsaw SPT67-wm22 Sidewinder. Skil is breaking their pro saws off from Skil and they are now trademarked Skilsaw. This saw is 7-1/4 and is all magnesium. The shoe, guard and motor housing. Very lightweight. I'm going to do a review on the saw but it has a built in blower and a depth measurement guide on the housing. Real quality saw but it's not a traditional Skil. The motor is based on the worm drive motor and it is crazy powerful.
  20. Holy smokes 77 that's an awesome deal! Really nice collection too. Your tools will never end up crapped on with that kind of protection either.
  21. Oh and if anybody saw a TiA shirt up north, well yeah that's a TiA shirt! Also, that's the Klein Tradesman Pro pack. I ditched my electronics tools and added a first aid kit, food and some expensive electronics and binoculars. The bag held up quite awesome for being jostled around so much!
  22. Thanks guys! Yup, she's got a sister! As far as the view, you can see the trail kind of go up then disappear. That on account that it drops of the face of the earth. We stayed out for five hours but we finally made the connector to the Wilds trail system which is over a 1k miles of craziness. We ended up on the pavement getting gas about five miles down the road then hitting the Wilds system. The dust was some terrible though. Elevation is awesome up there but we didn't near the Arctic Zone but the trees on the other side were getting noticeably shorter. We will head up there again in the next few weeks for the Wild Trail and spend som time getting north of Berlin and trying some of the trails of the main line.
  23. Just got back from Jericho up in the White Mountains. Awwwwwwwsome!
  24. Nice Mike! Congratulations dude! I remember that feeling! Nothing better Mike, you really deserve this!
