  1. My Makita has done real good. It's the corded one. It's around 10 years old and it gets used at least once a week or two. And it's been run hard. And when I bought it it had the longest blade stroke of all the sawsalls. Resips. Or tied with a couple I think. Its been a long time since I have checked the specks of all them. You can't go wrong with Makita or Milwaukee in sawsalls.

  2. I always sharpen a new chisel straight out of the package. They are never as sharp as they can be from the factory. The normal chisel from the hardware stores any way. Never had the money for the high dollar ones. Lol. And I could probley get them sharper too. I shapen stuff on the side. And like a hobie I guess.

  3. I am looking to get a new set of chisels because one of my cheap chisels has disappeared. What kind of Chisels should i get? Keep in mind I don't want to spend to much money.

    Just go with a cheap set if you know how to sharpen stuff. Like with a water stone or dimond stones. If not get the Stanley ones. Best for price for durable and sharpness out of the box.

  4. Thanks brotha! It's a 204pc Dewalt mechanic set  very very awesome kit crew I got it on Black Friday a couple years back when they first released I think people were very hesitant to buy because they weren't used to seeing dewalt brand on mechanic tools but guys seriously it's an awesome kit to have its definitely paid for itself x10's full 

    How much was it when you bought it on sale?

  5. All I use is 16 gauge and 18g. They leave a smaller hole for thinner materials. Like door molding. Its thicker on the out side of the molding than the inside. That fasten to the door casing. So you would use the 18g there. And 16g on the thicker part for more holding power with a bigger nail.

    Oh no I'm sure you've nailed it, that's my opinion anyway...but if you're following, you're never leading. Long term prognosis is stagnation. 

     

    Perfect example is the historical cat and mouse Apple and Samsung. I don't like either much but there's no denying why the secret sauce Apple make tastes so good, they don't move fast but they innovate and polish well while supplying superior product. Samsung plays copycat and pumps out tit for tat the same features in a rewrapped package. 

     

    Which one is worth a half a trillion dollars? It's not Samsung.

    Exactly. I'm glad you think so too hugh.

  7. They're awesome. I have 3 of them. Somehow, I find them as markdowns ALL THE TIME. They're retuned as "defective." Then they test them only to see they work and then mark them down. $15-$20 is about what I've paid.

    Where at? Any where that sells them? Or Amazon. Or you know someone?

    Unfortunately true. Dewalts innovation department is lacking to say the least, they always take the path of least resistance and walk roads already paved. Evolutionary vs Revolutionary seems to be their motto at internal affairs. Still love their products but I wish they'd be first more than once a lifetime. 

    Which if they wait for someone eles to work on the engineering and technology of a new type of tool it would cost the less money to make the tool in the long run. And keep from paying that big enginers payment. Making them able to keep jobs in America. And help the price for consumers.... Maybe. Just guessing and trying to look at it from a big competitive market. I could be off by a million miles.
