  1. Bought this little guy and I have to say I am pretty disappointed. The level is one of the most expensive smaller levels out there, and the quality is pretty shoddy. The grind on the edges is pretty inconsistent and the level isn’t true. I compared this to 4 others in Home Depot and picked it because it seemed to be the best one of the bunch. Suffice to say, it’s getting returned. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I like using a block of wood on the other side, stops the blow out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. If it did the tool as well, that might be decent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pliers?

    I use Klein and Knipex. Had NWS, wasn’t a fan of them for what I do. They are very well built and precise, but just a good fit for electrical. Channelock is a good , budget friendly brand. If you can afford it, Knipex is probably one of the best all-purpose brands. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. Coring and non-hammer bits would benefit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. That thing is ugly. It looks like a 90’s corded! Sure is a beast though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I gotta say, that metallic copper look is really growing on me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. You can use several glove bags together, each one can be used for up to 3 linear feet of abatement. It’s not ideal but you can also seal two together for wider diameters. They are very cheap and really, there is no reason not to remove it safely. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  12. What model? If you google “Ryobi XXXX parts list” you will usually find exploded diagrams like this: https://www.ereplacementparts.com/ryobi-be321-belt-sander-parts-c-7931_7932_15013.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. You can use a glove bag, it’s a type 3 remediation. You don’t just use a suit\mask. It’s highly Friable. Asbestos can stay in the air for hours/days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Don’t worry about the wear mark too much. The important thing is not to push into the tool too hard when you hit rebar, let the bit work through. You don’t want to warp the bit or damage it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Working on iOS! Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Waiting for the new Milwaukee Fuel Brushless Coffee Maker, or the new Brushless Pliers,
  17. I like them both. Brushed certainly has a place. The marketing has just gotten out of control. Brushless doesn’t automatically mean more power or longer battery life. Affordable, quality tools have been disappearing to further the “make everything brushless” race. Its nice there are still ass-kicking brushed tools out there.
  18. The triple hammer is pretty damn nice. I still love my DTD154. With a BL1820B it’s the perfect size and weight for my belt. I ran a hundred feet of EMT with 3 self tappers per 10feet. A couple holes in steel and some KOs cut and my battery was at 75%.
  19. Ahh, sorry man. I don’t know anything about the soft shells. I don’t think they would be appropriate for winter though!
  20. Totally agree. I should preface with my typical outerwear set up. -30 I recommend and use the following: Glove liners sock liners - they are awesome. Boot socks - holy crap, even more awesome. Like a slipper you wear over your sock. thermal base layer - like long johns, lighter weight. base layer tshirt/long sleeve Carhartt Extreme Arctic Jacket Carhartt Extreme Arctic Bibs The M12 vest on low is perfect to keep the chill out and lasts all day.
  21. Short answer, no. (I assume you are talking about the 3-1 heated jacket) I use the heated vest now. Can wear it under anything. Stays close to the body. Doesn’t make you sweat like the heated hoodie can. Always toasty and never need to go above low/medium. Putting a hoodie under a jacket just moves the heat farther away from your body and adds another layer of insulation. In severe wind on a -30 to -35 day, the jacket doesn’t keep up unless it’s on high. Which won’t get you through the day. the jacket doesn’t breath well either, I found it too easy to sweat in. Going in and out all day was a bitch because I would get hot too fast inside, then get a chill outside. i wear the M12 vest with a Carhartt extreme arctic jacket. It’s awesome.
  22. Any updates on broken forum access? Both Android Andy iOS down. I really dislike the forums mobile web view. It’s tedious. Unless there is a way to see recent posts by topic and not very single individual post... Please fix Tapatalk access.
  23. I like that Makita still makes an affordable Rotary Hammer. The DHR241z is a great cordless Rotary Hammer and the only one you can buy for under $200 CND! Considering the price, I think it’s fantastic performance for the cost.
