  8. Posting photos

    Speaking of posting photos.. when I'm on my phone (galaxy note 3) and I try to attach a picture, my phone gives me very limited options from where to choose it from.. none of which are actually places where I store pictures like my gallery or my Google drive.. not sure if I'm being clear about this.. any ideas?

    the answer for that one is easier because tti doesn't own ridgid or ryobi. Only Milwaukee. A good example would be Samsung. They make products of their own brand and are a huge oem. They make the majority of the parts for iPhones for their biggest competitor apple. If this isn't true today it was just a couple of years ago. It wouldn't make sense for Samsung to make interchangeable user replaceable parts between the two brands

    TTI does in fact own Milwaukee, Ryobi and AEG (among others) they make tools for Ridgid but do not own them. Emerson owns Ridgid

  14. hex key L-wrench advise please

    in Hand Tools

    Posted

    Hey, I would like to upgrade the hex keys I carry in my work toolbag. I am seriously considering the Bondhus balldriver goldguard 15pc metric and 13pc imperial. I like the fact that they are made in the USA and seem to be very high quality.

    I am thinking goldgaurd for the main reason that the guy who works for me is not the most observant and I really don't want him mixing my old husky balldriver hex keys with my new ones if they are all black (very likely that he or possibly a sub would mix them up, confuse them for their own or even loose them because they don't stand out) if they were gold there would be no confusion that they were mine and would be easier to find if they were misplaced.

    Is there any downside to the goldgaurd finish?

    Should I be exploring another brand? I was also considering wera as that's what I use for screwdrivers and really like them but they just don't seem to have the selection

    I really don't use them a ton and not in extreme situations.. I'm a remodeling contractor not a mechanic..

    Thanks

  17. any reason to not buy cordless tools from overseas?

    Bare tool it is..      

     

    I was really thinking about the makita TD148D brushless impact and the DJV181Z brushless barrel grip jigsaw... but i think i can wait for those

     

    the DHS680 brushless circ saw, i will have a harder time waiting for

     

    I will Physically not be able to wait more that 1 month for the Supposed new brushless reciprocating saw... if they dont instantly bring that thing to the US i will no doubt buy it from overseas.

    I know Milwaukee has been king of the hill for a while now but Makita has always been very innovative and has a great team of engineers... they may have been quiet for a little while but they were obviously just assembling their new army and are about to storm the hill!  Watch out Milwaukee   Makita's Back!!!

    Been thinking about this just a little... I'm starting to think that both the Fein and the Festool have capibilities so far advance from what I need and/or make use of, that either would be way overkill.

    But then, I like overkill.

    im not sure what your usage is, professional or personal and how frequent, but my guess is that either the supercut or the Vecturo are wayyyy overkill.. if you are considering a Multitool, do yourself the favor and really consider the a Fein.. they are exceptionally engineered tools and do their job very well.. 

    the older style FMM250Q is still awesome and on on sale over at the Tool Nut with all the accessories for $200  that is awesome price (same price as the newer FMM350Q without all the accessories)

    (the picture on tool nut is wrong and is of the newer model.. the part number is correct though, the accessories should be very similar)

    Running joke from last year...Regopit superimposed a pic of me, Eric and Dan on the gay a$5 Bosch Chino dorks model,ing in Prague or something! Don't worry NE...you and me.....Festool! Green Baby.....GREEN!!!!!

     

    Phew!   you had me worried for a minute!!  :)       

     

    after seeing those pictures i must admit, you wear those little pants well my friend  hahahaha     

     

    and as far as the apron goes.. thats a hard one.. yes on one hand an apron is much more at home in "da kitchen" but then again do "da bitches" really deserve a festool apron?? also we dont want them making their kitchen duties faster-easier-smarter.. then they will start finding free time in which they will wander from the kitchen... they will start to want equal rights, ability to vote, real jobs and...... us to cook for them NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!    keem the women away from the festool apron!    its perfectly acceptable for a man to wear a SHOP apron as long as it is made of leather or has a tool/gun/car brand on it    ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

    from my understanding, the Vecturo is based almost 100% off the Fein Supercut..  there is talk that Fein actually makes the bulk of the tool for Festool then Festool adds their own housing, plug it cord and developed their own bases like the plunge base.  

    Im not saying this is 100% factual but its just what i have heard.

     

    Case and point.. it has been proven that the Festool Plunge base will mount directly to the Fein Supercut    so if you already have the Supercut and you are really digging the plunge base, order up!!  also the blades are interchangeable between both units

     

    Sooo   while i would like to see a comparison between the 350 and the Vecturo (to know if and how much better it is for the money)  a comparison between the 350 and the Supercut should yield the same results and might be more feasible in the near future

     

    I posted this in another thread also, but i would love to see a compairson that included the 250, 350 and supercut    to know, if you were only considering Fein, which was the best bet

    I'll have to just take a few deep breaths and be patient! It's good to at least know it's in the works

    They really seem to have woken up big time, it's exciting... some of their stuff was getting a little stale but with all these new releases of great tools they are obviously looking to take back the crown!!

    Alright kornomaniac, you got any more dirt for me?? Can you twist some arms?? :)

    Brushless?

    18v x2?

    Avt tech?

    badass crazy amounts of power!?!?

    Hoping all the normal goodies like rafter hook, led and adjustable shoe are a given..

    also judging by all their new tools I imagine it will have a battery fuel gauge.

    Gimme something... anything! I'm dying over here. Lol
