Nice collection!
One of the items I do not have is a brace.

The old Sawzalls and Tiger saws rock!.
New stuff is garbage. I have 4 old Milwaukees, 2 tigers, 2 tiger claws. Add some grease to the gear box, as there is minimal in there, and they will last a long time.
New product is garbage. I killed a Milwaukee on one job, only job it was on. The new style blade clamp on the Bosch sucks.

Remember way back when tool manufacturers put everything in a steel case?
Plastic cases are over sized, and nothing but the intended product will fit, and only if arranged by the chimpanzee on the production floor.

Beautiful day today. Went out to my back 40, to clear out and reorganize the shed. Strung out (3) 50' 12 /3 cords to power some tunes. (corded unit sounds way better than my 18V Ridgid). Decided to make some impromptu shelving by using some cleats and zip screwing them to the structure.
Typical........... 18v Ridgid, died after 3 screws. Battery I retrieved after walking back and forth 200' each way............. was dead. (older unit, no 'strength' leds) Walked the walk again. 12v Milwaukee bandsaw. Died after 4 cuts.
Typical. I dragged my corded magnum and a corded deep bandsaw out to the back. Finished the minor job with corded tools.
I dont see how you guys rely on batteries.

He just might be inquiring about cold chisels.
Menards has Wilde (USA) on sale. And if you aint got a store close, they do ship.
or............. call Epsteins.
They both carry wood and cold chisels, among others.

I use Kleins for drivers. However, Menards carries Masterforce, of which their drivers are Pratt Reed / Ideal.
The rubber grips on Kleins and Masterforce are the same. I also do like Wera.
I do not have an issue wearing out tips, however, I consider drivers to be a comsumable.
.
and tool porn? How's about these pics? First are my grab drivers, Kleins, Masterforce, C-man, Second pic, is the collection. Obviously, I dont have room for all. There are 5 generations of Channellock, 2 generations of Diamond, Rosco, Wera, Multi tip, a coupla Williams, and some awls thrown in.
(there's more on another pegboard, btw, and many stored in a toolbox, let alone the ones in the truck, and the carage.)
