    I went to a yard sale and found a decent amount of antique tools for amazingly cheap. A few augers for 25 cents each and some blacksmith tongs. Also bought a toolset for kids that is identical to the one I used as a kid! My son will be ecstatic when he gets home!

    YOU gotta post some pics of them I'm def. curious to see.

    I was at home Depot this morning and saw this portable table, so I picked it up, so far it's nice and all but the legs don't fold you have to pull them out and the clamp holders are supposed to fit any standard clamp I guess none of my clamps are "standard" think I will try it out for a couple days and maybe return it and get something elsed7e82635b32999bf8247fd7b938bb272.jpg

    https://www.amazon.com/Keter-Folding-Workbench-Sawhorse-Capacity/dp/B001CWX26Y  i picked this one up at a garage sale for 25 bucks and even after it was used it still works great for me and the way it folds is what gets me,. the four legs fold down into the bottom panel when you fold it together.   i think sams club has this on sale.

  3. Both my bro in laws prob make more then me so they should think of what to get me...:) But no only because they both live out of state and dunno what they’d need. Prob get my dad some stuff since some of his got stolen :(

    Ah, ok that makes sense then. I just searched again and it looks like the silver one is available from Amazon through third party sellers, though it didn't show up the other day. Amazon says it was released in 2006 and the blue one was released in 2012, so looks like some places just had old stock they were getting rid of and explains why they may have the same SKU.

    Yeah. Because I said to them. Umm your online one is blue and has handles the one on the shelf doesn’t. Shouldn’t I lay less? Or what’s up? They weren’t even sure until someone called someone else who called ...... by then I said forget it I’ll eye ball it.

    Felo bits from @KC_Tool showed up today, USPS apparently had fun getting them here because there were multiple "In Transit to Destination"'s and arrivals/departures to the same place in Kansas.

    1/2" Forstner bit from Rockler and not pictured a gallon of Titebond II since it was $5 cheaper than at Lowe's.

    Last week I received an Empire 98" Cutting Guide that I ordered from Home Depot, it wasn't the product shown in any photos online, instead it was some random silver version with no handle. I spent a good hour looking for that version online. I posted about it on Instagram and Empire reached out and sent me the correct version. Still no explanation about the other one, no return label to ship it to them or mention of it, so I guess I'm keeping the other one too. I'm going to need a bigger bottle of Goo Gone though after trying to remove a sticker from it.

    regarding the empire mistake, home depot has the same sku number for both, I know because i was at the store and i needed a saw guide. and the empire (blue with handles) was an option they didnt even have the silver one anyways i  saw the blue one and saw it was in stock so i went to the isle and all they had was a silver one with no handles so i asked that lady umm online its showing a blue one with handles this ones silver and handleless, she was like hmmm  she had a few blue's on the shelves up top that they got for me,  she says they believe both have the same sku,  so when you ordered yours the shippers saw the SKU and just grabbed whatever.....   btw i only wrote all this because im on a computer lol not my cell.

    Just picked up a second dewalt compressor.

    And I’m showing the machete because I know Eric was talking about wanting to buy one. Well today i noticed the price was 19.99. 4-6 months ago I bought it and the price was 14.99 for the longest time. Home Depot and their random price hikes. Also had to buy a 5 gallon bucket and they were $1 more then last one i bought one. No bueno orange team no bueno.

    I was poking around at the Habitat Restore today and found this belt for a couple bucks, it's made by Wally Bags but in a little bit of googling all I could find is Wally Bags of Maryland that makes garment bag.  Anyway it looks very well made and I'm curious what everyone uses to clean up their belts with?

    Habitat for humanity store is whats up!  i love the one by my house, so many great deals.  I lucked out because this is the only one prob within 300 miles that has good deals, ive been to others and they seem so HIGH priced. I scored simpson strong ties that go for 9 bucks at HD  for 50 cents each, and a rubber maid shed that goes for 299 at costco for 25 bucks... sold as is based on them not knowing if all the parts are in the box, i scored and it had every part!

    To the person that was here before me And placed this beautiful Stiletto hammer in the wrong section..... you're sick, you have no regard getting my hopes up like that. I was off yonder debating what tool I probably shouldn't buy. I spot this beautiful hammer and with that price tag only to see it's not true....

  9. Nice. I haven't decided whether I need a deep cut band saw or not. The M18 Fuel consistently makes it onto my list of tools I want to buy but shouldn't unless a project calls for it. The little M12 one has come in handy more than I thought it would though.


    I cut a few things around to justify my purchase lol. But the price is what got me.

    Have one, not the greatest thing ever but handy when I don't feel like pulling out my compressor... And hey it's cheap!

    the 19.99 price is what got me, and it better work well, since i dont have any ryobi batteries or chargers lol, right now its a top of the line pricy paperweight lol . My buddy let me use his for a few min last week, the only thing i dont like is that the button is so sensitive, when i was trying to take out the needle thats stowed away in the handle i think i hit the trigger button like 5x by accident and it kept going off, just my two cents on what im not crazy about. ANYWAYS, at the moment its doing a BANG-UP job as a paperweight.
