    A Walmart employee was doing his job hauling carts back to the front of the store to the parking lot he wasn't paying attention and let the stack of carts get too close to my car leading to the damage. He admitted that he wasn't paying close attention to what he was doing. I hope that was is fairly clear as to what happened. The managers admitted fault it was a mess up on the stores behalf, but those are just local managers.

    A Walmart employee not paying attention? That's hard to believe, all they hire are brainiacs.

    In this day and age, we have unlimited access to just about any band , and any album. So let's pretend that you have to choose one. Not for a lifetime, but to complete a project that you have poured your heart and soul into. What album would be your climatic jam to finish the project to?

    Ronnie Montrose--- "Open Fire"

    I'm starting to see the Fuel 18ga brad nailer for sale on a few online dealers. My question is are you willing to pay $329.00 for a bare tool, $379.00 for a kit or just keep using air.

    The next big step for battery operated tools now has to be a huge drop in prices. They have most everything else taken care of . Now it's just a matter of making them affordable for everyone to use. But batteries are the way of the world now. I went to all battery operated tools for outdoor maintaince (EGO) and I can't even give away the old electric ones I have that work great. 

  4. Anybody buying tools when they first come out better have the money to burn. Best to wait a little and see how it all shakes out. And trying to stick to one brand looks to be a little shakey too. Good to see companies expanding their lines but hope they don't orphen everything else.

  5. Haven't worked for anybody since 2007 when I quit my aerospace job. I was in aerospace for 25 years. Now I help my girlfriend who has run her own business for the last 19 years. (RCFE) and we have that on the market as we speak. Time to end the "W" word for good.:D

    Is that a "Festool" makeover on some "Gladiator"  boxes? Sounds like something I would do.

  7. Broke down yesterday and bought the EGO hedge trimmer. I was waiting for it to go on sale but couldn't wait any longer. Used it on our front yard and it worked great. Really nice to not have to deal with a long extension cord any longer. I'll finish the back yard today. The Milwaukee looks like an interesting tool but can't wait a year for that to come out and no matter the amp hours it's still  an 18 volt. Here's some pic's of it's handy work,

  8. Finally got one of those .001 deals at HD, it wasn't much but I really didn't think they were for real. Got a can of sharpening oil that said it was on sale from 5.98 for 1.45 and I thought that was a good deal. When I scanned it it came up at .001!  Now I believe it can happen.

    I have a garage door that could use the new ryobi opener heck yeah!!!  Total epicness. I was actually looking at these in HD last few times i went.   The modules are totally cool,and just the phone app itself would be really useful to me.   My garage is also my man cave area so being able to setup the different modules could help make things easier to use.

     

     

    and my vote goes to KnarlyCarl aka notCarl since i cant vote myself.       #tiacrew    

     

     

    You have to post pictures of the garage before and after the new opener. That's the deal.

  10. Just going by the question you asked I would say go with the small combo router (DeWalt makes a good one as well) that way you would have a plunge too. You can always get a large one if you want to go with a router table at some point.

    I'm a weird mutt I like my Iphone but use pc's only. I hope its a cheap quick fix wigwag

    You and me both. I'll take a PC any day of the week. It's one thing to have a Apple phone but pay that premium for a MAC? No way.
