I very nice set of tools. Those pliers wrenches are great aren't they!! Between your Milwaukee and knipex all in one type pliers which do you like better? I had the Milwaukee but ended up returning them because they didn't strip well.. I went with the ergo grip knipex 14/12ga... they are a thing of beauty

Nice solution for saving some money!

The Bosch does seem like a very nice saw.. I think it would be great it if came to the US just so there was some real competition for festool.. the track looks substantial but it appears that it is in no way compatible with festool

BK, if your considering a track saw and can't go new festool you may want to consider used.. a lot of times you can find very lightly used festools on ebay.. also if it is within 3 years than you can take advantage of festools superb warranty.. you could actually just call festool and say you don't think it's cutting well or that it's out of adjustment and they will pay for the shipping to and from them and do a complete breakdown of the tool and make any repairs necessary. All fully covered within the first 3 years

Sounds like you got a lot going on!! Can't wait to see it all wrapped up (although it will likely never be done, a shop is always under constant improvement)
-
wow NER. I think that's 56 systainers
When you put it that way, it seems like I have a problem.... nahhhhhh. Haha.
The black spot is deceiving, that's actually 2.. a sys1 sortainer and a sys 2.
That and the one that was on another job brings the grand total to 58.. yikes (don't tell my wife)

NER, I just bought two Festool Cooltainers from Uncle Bob. Personally a waste of money but they are Black systainer 4's and he has them marked down to 76! I AM NOT STACKING THEM ALL AGAIN, I'll just add the pic I was having a coronary after six feet, they were swaying.
Add a little over 2' to the stack!! The black and green is really cool. I've got ocd about them all being the same color.
You can take the insulation out and use them for tools also.
Builderbob from over on FOG lives right near me and we work together on occasion.. he uses one for his lunch box
-
That would be a cool pit bike for things like Nascar or motocross
is this a Dewalt product or just something someone put together
-
Nice saw man!! I agree that a recip saw is something to spend a little extra money on.. they are tools that typically see the harder jobs and are pushed to the limit so you will never regret having the extra power
-
Dewalt or not, I've got respect for anyone with a well organized work trailer!! nice look. I'd love to see the whole thing
-
Thanks guys! Being a site contractor and often having to setup and breakdown daily, having the majority of my tools in systainers really save me a lot of time. Also if I am leaving my tools in a customers home then they really appreciate how clean and organized I am.
Thanks for the rotation madman
-
Plus, Chris.... it looks to me that your in a solid second place. Very respectable indeed
-
Wow. That's quite a bit more than I thought. And Holy Smokes! 30' freakin' feet?!?!?!??!?!? That's awesome! Difference.....Chris - Amateur.....John - Professional
Haha. Thanks man! I've got faith in you though.. you will get there soon enough
-
Having a hard time making the picture rotate correctly from my phone. I'll mess with it later from a computer.

So I wasn't able to stack them as of yet due to weather, crazy busy at work and just life but I wanted to submit a placeholder photo so here it is
There is only one of my large open top tool boxes missing from the picture
grand total height if they were all stacked would be 362.2" 30'-2 3/16" or 920cm
I'll try to stack them all somehow as soon as I can-

Chris, nice stack of systainers you have there!! Don't cut yourself short though.. your systainers collection (including the Mirka and minis) measures out to 144.125" or 12'-0 1/8" or 366.08cm!! I don't know the exact sizes of lboxes but I would say your right around 22" so all in you at 13'-10 1/8" or 422cm!!!

Sometimes a relaxation day is a must... sleep in, loaf around on the couch and just chill!!

Very cool!!! I want to walk through a tornado
I'll be in LA in May actually.. I'll have to add the sciencecenter to my to-do list
-
Wow! That must have been a blast to work on!! What kind of power does something like that have? Count you stick your hand in there??
-
You can get tongue and grove bits with 1/4 shank but you will likely have to make the cut in several passes somehow.
These smaller routers are great for flush trimming nosing, small roundovers, shallow cuts like to mortise a hinge or light details like a small v grove in a panel.. when you start wanting to remove more material you can do it but you have to make several passes, increasing your cut depth each time.
-
Top handle will serve you just fine.. and it's honestly easier to use.
-
I'm not sure if you can get them but the Bosch carbide tipped multitool blades are excelent for cutting drywall and plaster, they last forever.. not as fast as rotary but the multitool provides more control and tends to make less of a dust storm
-
I can't see any reason that a cordless cutout tool couldn't double as a "dremmel" tool.. you won't have the variable speed that most rotary tools have but to be honest I usually run mine full speed anyway..
my Milwaukee m12 rotary tool maxes out at 32000rpm. The Makita I'd 30000rpm and the dewalt is 26000rpm. I'd say they all have plenty of speed to spin a little cutoff wheel or grinding bit.
They are a bit more bulky that's the only drawback I can see but it's not necessarily even a drawback. It is nice to have one tool to do both jobs

It's cool to see all that Tekton stuff in there
