  1. I was drilling 18" of poured concrete with the big Hilti, I hit rebar and the drill spun, the handle hit me in the face and knocked me off my 6ft ladder. I am very happy this is starting to be more popular! Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  2. It's about time! Over 1000 inch lbs can ruin your day pretty quick. They could have used Bosch with torque control, but I don't think they were trying to bash anyone else, just show how it worked. They didn't claim to invent torque control. I liked that it was just a simple demo, no sales guy chewing your ear off. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  4. Not a Milwaukee guy, but damn they make the best heated gear. Got a great deal too! Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  5. I have been eyeing it up for a little bit, finally pulled the trigger. Definitely a great item to have in the bag. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  6. I also picked up a multi-bit nut driver for the service bag. Great design and very convenient, the only downside is that it is heavy. Really heavy. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  7. Got myself a new little bag. My back was very pleased. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  8. Very impressive! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. Keep in mind, you should use a "Y" as opposed to hard 90°. It will improve airflow quite a bit. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  10. I have been asking over and over, why should I buy one, what real world benefit would there be? I think you are the first guy with a legit answer. I am not an HVAC guy, but I can see how the ringing would be dramatically reduced. That stuff can get pretty echoey and loud. That's a great point. I am sure it would be helpful in reducing noise in mild steel cabinets as well. Great job, thanks! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. I have been using mine for over a year. I have done about 100 holes with them. The 1/2" KO saw has one broken tooth, but still cuts well. Keep in mind they are for knock outs. They are not a true hole saw, they are made for mild steel cabinets, pvc etc. The end is flared to prevent the saw from going right through the material, into your panel etc. They are cheap and do a great job.

  12. I have the 11-1 Klein which I use daily. The unit is too short and hard to get into small spaces as it is very wide. This thing should be able to get into pretty tight spaces and deeper boxes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  14. Purples all the way. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Unless you are adding membrane to the walls, mudding it wouldn't do a a whole lot. Waterproofing is all or nothing. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

    I dunno, if I see a demo being done with a $30 Walmart B&D tool, i have a hard time taking it seriously. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Lee valley doesn't carry Wera anymore. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  18. Electricians don't like to carry 2 tools to do one job. I have armored cutters that never get used. Cable cutters don't like BX very much. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  19. I loved the quality of the NWS. The only reason I got rid of mine was because the jaws don't open wide enough for cutting standard electrical stuff like BX etc. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  20. I have 2 Makita 36v tools now. Rotary hammer and chainsaw. The runtime is awesome. I like the size and weight. Add a dual bay rapid charger and you are set! Flexvolt is too cumbersome for my taste. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  21. I am pretty impressed by that chainsaw. Tore through an 8" diameter tree like butter. I was expecting less torque and smoothness to be honest. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
  22. Then this... Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

  24. With the newer 4 pole designs, aside from improved speed control, brushed motors are serious competitors. Reliability, reparability and power for much less than brushless. The losses through the commutator are dramatically reduced so the battery life is similar to a brushless. Its great seeing guys being able to easily repair a tool. Good job!
