  1. That new track saw looks awesome for construction work.
  2. It's a nice novelty. I've always wanted one for the work trailer since Makita released there's a while back.
  3. Thermal imager and inspection camera would be nice to incorporate BlueTooth. However, I have both current versions and popping an SD card into my iPad SD adapter is pretty darn easy.
  4. Well, I think I'm going to pull the trigger on one. Last week, I filed a warranty claim on a tool I no longer use and received an HD gift card. Today, I received a 15% off HD coupon. It's making the miter saw look very tempting.
  5. Fish Taco. CONGRATS KRUTON ON WINNING THE BOSCH KIT!
  6. Companies like Kohler, Delta and Moen also make exclusive lines for HD & Lowes. Most of the time, it's cheaper parts to keep costs low. The biggest thing big box stores do is attempt to carry the brands the other store doesn't carry. If they can't get brand exclusivity, they sell the tools and models the other store doesn't stock. Even if it's the EXACT same product, they get the model number changed by one character. Minimizes price wars and price matching. It's the best they can do to manipulate free market and competition which keeps prices low. They leave it up to the manufacturers to deal with competition and pricing. Many products aren't even "re-sold" by Lowes and HD. Some are literally on consignment. Many big ticket items are sold at or near cost to HD, and in return, compensated for prime shelf space.
  7. I'm sure it's great for residential use. I'd love to do my whole backyard in that stuff. A massive patio and no major concern for drainage. Wonder how cost effective it is.

  9. Not really. The only difference would have been a single hard case. So I'd much rather have two chargers and 4 batteries all day. I'll probably put them in a DS150 Tough System box with some kaizen foam anyway.
  10. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] [emoji15] I'm expanding my tool chest.
  11. That's wayyyy more than I would have guessed. Combined weight of the kits is 27.21lbs plus the box and packaging. That's pretty close to the shipping weight.
  12. Maybe when it comes to women... But technology and electronics, I don't always abide by that.
