    T stak

    HD doesn't carry them, but I have noticed them at plumbing and electrical supply stores in my area. You should try check them out if you don't want to purchase online.
  2. I use the echo or solo sprayers as well. They're reliable and easy to maintain. Plus part kits are available at a fair price if a gasket goes and you have to stop a leak.
  3. I've been keeping my blades in the plastic sleeve case they came in or something similar if they came in an odd type package, then drop them into my toolbox like files.
  4. Anyone use the Spyder hole saw set?
  5. 5 Piece Magnetic Impact Ready Nutdrivers Set DeWALT DW1361 Titanium Pilot Point Drill Bit Set (though I wouldn't go with These again as they dull quickly) I liked the Ridgid bits HD used to carry. And my most used is part of an off brand tool box set with an array of bits and hand tools all organized in 4 compact drawers; which I picked up about 15 yrs ago at an automotive supply place and have yet to find anything like it again. All quality stuff used on a regular basis, without dulling or breaking. Probably my best tool buy to date.
  6. Anyone use the Tstak system? I've been thinking of getting a few of those. Seem to be versatile and durable.
  7. I went with the Milwaukee right angle adaptor as it's thinner than the dewalt and makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces like cabinets.
  8. I use the Bosch bits in my hammer drill regularly, but have been seriously considering a cordless SDS so I don't have to bring out my big rotary hammer form mid size drilling.
  9. Simple solution that may cost you nothing. You can try looping them on an electrical wire with a twist or double loop, then you just push them around the wire to the size you need and open the loop at that point to get the socket you need.
  10. I come across this box, the dewalt and the fat max versions, often on job sites and even in other places. I've got a few friends in the design and fashion industry and have seen the on sets for photo shoots and runway events. The simplicity in setup and organization makes them appealing to wide variety of consumers.
  11. 3m are popular and widely available. I typically buy the basic grey wrap around lenses for my guys who do roof coatings. They're lightweight, comfortable, and inexpensive. The price makes replacing them easier on the pocket as lense fall, get dirty or sratched. If you wear prescription glasses, which I do, these won't work. In this case a box type with side shields or goggles do the trick.
  12. Looks like a great mini blower for shop work or woodwork bench cleanup. I've been considering the DCBL720P1 as I'd need one that can clean larger areas w/o have to lug a gas blower to smaller jobs.
  13. Definitely the coolest dust mask on the market
  14. This monkey wrench is awesome. I think I'm going to have to hunt one down. I love old tools. I've got an antique wood handle hand crank drill; which still works.
  15. Looks like someone's been banging through nails and lions and tigers and bears...for Xmas I'd say and good wet stone would serve well.

    Looks decent, http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B016J05NN8/ref=pd_aw_sbs_469_of_10?ie=UTF8&dpID=41NLvJlFyaL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_SL500_SR100%2C100_&refRID=0BEA7AECM6KXQF0N95EW Saw this when I looked up your link. It's the same brand, but works off of the Ryobi Battery. I've found that most glue guns work the some, some a little smoother than others. The cordless option is really the next step.

    That's what I remembered as we'll; just wondering if there's been any update since then. Oddly I've found the need for a glue gun a few times in the last month where plugging in was not the easiest thing to accomplish.
  18. I picked up one of these a few months ago and it's great. The corded/cordless option sets it apart from the others on the market.

    Anyone have any ideas on the release of the B & D cordless hot glue gun the guys reviewed?
  20. Don't own one, but the 36v Makita sounds like a great option for those in that battery platform. I'm on the dewalt platform, so I'd go with that, though I'd like to see it develop to a larger blade or double bevel...or both!
  21. Anything tool free or cordless these days are great to have in a tool lineup. The R A drill would definitely be help in tight areas, though the 12v drills are fairly shot as it is, so it's a start.
  22. Saw the impact metal shear attachment posted above; something great would be a 20v metal shear for roofers and metal workers.
  23. That's news, I had no idea...used them back in school to make models. If he price is reasonable, it would be great to have one at home
  24. Sounds like something great for demolition work. I doubt it would help when precision is the concern.
