MY favorite power tool would be a tie between the generation two Milwaukee high torque impact and the m12 soldering iron. My favorite hand tool would have to be the wera tool check plus.

I ordered the new m18 rover floodlight today. Acme had a $20 off $100 sale.

Here are a couple of my
somewhat recent purchases. The new fuel ratchet is a massive improvement over the old one. I have no worries at all about breaking the head on this one under normal use. I also picked up the new Milwaukee generation two high torque impact and it is an absolute monster. When they say that it is a pneumatic replacement they are not kidding. I have done a few side by side tests and it is a tiny bit stronger than an Ingersoll Rand 2135timax at 175 psi.

You can buy metabo online at acme tool. I'd imagine a local welding supply store would carry their grinders and other metalworking tools.

Awesome, you'll have the let us know how it works out! I asked my usual source today for a date and price but was told they asked Milwaukee about it today and haven't heard back yet.
I definitely will. I'll be doing extensive torque testing with it. We have a 3/4 drive torque wrench that can go up to 600 ft pounds. My grandpa is also ordering an independent front end setup for his 39 ford and I guarantee it will get used putting it together.

I'm waiting with bated breath as well. 2861 needs to be in my possession asap, with boot!
Mine is pre ordered. I can't wait for it to get here. I know that there are a couple of projects it wil come in super handy for.

I priced a gearwrench set through work and for a set similar to the Williams chrome set it is almost 500. I think I'd choke down the Shipping for the Williams set.

Since it is AWD can it smoke all four tires at once? I doubt many people expect this car to be that fast.

The shipping is a killer though. It's 55 to get it shipped to my place

I think we have a gearwrench set on sale where I work. I'll check tomorrow and let you know what the price is.

Man I can't understate how excited I am for the 2861. The pics on Milwaukee's site even show it with a boot, so hopefully the boot is more readily available than the compact gen2 boot.
My card is primed and ready for when it's available. The 3/4 inch torque wrench is ready for torque testing too.

Is it a valve guide install tool?

I have used sunex and never had an issue with any of mine. I bought them around two years ago. If you dont need bigger 3/8 sockets here is a good set but it only goes to 19mm and 3/4.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005MVB9Y8/ref=pd_aw_sim_469_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=W9TF723SVF0A9KRMD9TT&dpPl=1&dpID=61UYEqtwYfL
I have these sets since they go all the way up to 22mm and one inch. Here is the metric set https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000LQDB86/ref=pd_aw_sbs_469_of_8?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=5DEPXRF52KJFQHSCV60J Here is the standard set. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000ROE4FQ/ref=pd_aw_sim_469_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=6NCVVH77SWED7Z4ZJQM8&dpPl=1&dpID=615z2yZEr4L

Is it a gasket maker set?

I bought my grandpa that same metabo grinder for Christmas but it has the slide switch. We both love it. It runs very smooth and doesn't vibrate at all. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

I'm betting we will see an m18 battery with 21700 cells. We are probably due for gen 3 m18 drills and impacts and it's rumored that there is a compressor and worm drive saw in the works too.
