  1. 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.

    We have always good luck with Solo brand sprayers. We generally use them on the farm for smaller spot work around fence lines or small areas in the fields that are silly to start up the big sprayer for. We mainly use the backpack sprayers so I'm not sure on the smaller size you are looking for.

    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. 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.

    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.

    So here's my dilemma, maybe you guys can help. I have something like 80+ impact sockets floating around in a bag. They are all Pittsburgh sockets so they didnt come with a case. It is difficult to keep track of them all when they are just in a bag. I bought a bunch of document bags to separate them and it sorta helps,  but isn't that great. They won't stay on socket rails in the bag. What would you guys do to keep them organized? I have to have them in a bag because they always ride shotgun with my impact wrench and need to be able to be pulled out all at once for each job.

    Simple solution that may cost you nothing. You can try looping them on an electrical wire with a twist or double loopthen 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

    That's cool. Springfield MA is about 10 miles over from where I live,

    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.

  9. Id like to get one of these too. Althou a corded one would suite me well. While we are on this subject What do youguys use/recommend?

    what are your opinions on one like this? : http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005SW7N28/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=24XWR4KAKBMNW&coliid=I2H01N81LE9CC8

    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.

  10. I think Dan said it should be on the shelves soon from a periscope video he did.

    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.

  11. Well I didn't buy this but it was bought for me by my bro, he called me this morning and asked if I had one already and said that some lady at a yard sale was selling it for $75 he offered $60 she took it and gave it to me a lil while ago it's still brand freakin new I don't think it was used not one time. Thanks bro!!

    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.

  12. 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!
