  1. Those are handy as heck. I use them on treestands for a little extra security, or when the oem straps start to show signs of wear.
  2. I'll sell those shockwave kits for $12 with free shipping lower 48 if anyone is interested. Make me an offer on the other stuff, I guess.
  3. Yeah, $8 it is. USPS cheapest shipping for ol' Jimbo was $4.35. Highway robbery I tell ya, highway robbery!
  4. Well, I'll let them go for $7 each, depending on what shipping looks like. Sending Jimbo's out, so we'll see...
  5. I took advantage of that CPO clearance sale couple weeks ago, most of my order showed up today. Milwaukee 35-Piece Shockwave Drill and Drive Bit Set. - Scored 15 of them for $36.87 Milwaukee 11-in-1 ECX Multi-Tip Screwdriver with 2 Drink Coozies. - 10 for $19.90 Bosch Laser View Enhancing Glasses - 10 for $0.00 Bostitch 3/8" Universal Joint and Adapter Set. - 2 for $0.00 I'm waiting for my free Milwaukee Super Sawzall Blades and a couple bits. eBay, here I come!
  6. Anyone know if Team Yellow has similar nps upcoming? Or maybe the "WTF is this?!" June 21 deal is it.
  7. Yup, just saw the new M18 One Key Sawzall. You guys KNOW I'll be all over that, right?!
  8. That's a good point @MikeInCtown. It seems extremely unlikely to me at this point tat I would get 4 tools with the same problem, unrelated to the Turbo. That said, I will try a different phone and see what happens.
  9. Well, got the tools, but I'm not going to keep them. I was a bit surprised the M12 impact driver is actually bigger than my M18. So, since it was a package deal, I'm going to send the whole shebang back, and get an M18 Fuel Sawzall. The more I see of that bad boy, the more I want/need one!
  10. You probably already purchased, but I am really liking the CLC 5605M. I removed the back pouch and hammer loop. Suspenders are something you can add if you want later. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00004YZN7/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  11. I'm trying to make up my mind on one of the Dewalt ToughSystem options; Either the small DS150, or the new organizer with clear lid. I know, I know... buy both! Anyone have either or both of these?
  12. Very slick. I just made a couple rip guides for my saws, that looks a bit nicer, haha!
  13. Nice review! She looks like a real rippah! ; )
  14. How long after new tool announcements are they typically available? I'm going to need a jigsaw soon... On that note, I've been eying the Bosch corded offerings. What are your thoughts on top handle vs barrel grip?
  15. Wow, that's crazy! I'll likely get a new phone this winter, so probably the issue will go away. Until then, I'm looking forward to putting these tools through their paces on a deck and pergola build!
  16. Happy Birthday! I'm over my disappointment with the One Key aspect of this tool, am VERY impressed with the power and feel of mine. Though I see you have the wrench, not the driver, I imagine they are very similar.
  17. I was very polite, as was he. Very nice guy. Did all he could over the phone, then sent me out a new set. I have no problem whatsoever with Milwaukee customer service. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times. I understand that it is clearly an issue with connecting from a Droid Turbo. However, MY Droid Turbo works flawlessly with every Bluetooth device I have ever encountered. That leads me to believe it is not an issue with my particular phone, rather with my model of phone. Regardless, sorry if I have offended here, somewhat... Those who are in the business of looking to be offended, particularly for other parties, I have zero apology for.
  18. I agree with the above thoughts. I went with a 15ga angled, gives you a lot of options depending on the task. Up to 2 1/2" nails on mine allows me to use it to tack in fairly substantial stuff prior to attaching with screws and the like. Really appreciate the angled design for getting in tight spots. I have an 18 for the small stuff.
  19. I was about to edit my post to assuage your easily offended sensibilities. Then I said, screw that. Have a nice day. Are you from the same country of origin as I referenced? I didn't think so.
  20. A little over a year old. First gen Turbo, not the Turbo II. Lollipop 5.1. Have had zero issues with a multitude of other bluetooth devices. So, while it might be an issue specific to the Droid Turbo, it is not my Droid Turbo that is the problem. Yes, I consider this feature of the newer Milwaukee tools to be junk if they can't get it to work properly across all platforms. You're right, however, when I do eventually upgrade for another 2-yr contract with Verizon, perhaps my issues will disappear. The actual usage of the tools has been just fine. Plenty of power, and I am pleased with the feel. I just don't like paying extra for bells and whistles that don't "ding" or "whistle." I'm simply going to uninstall the app, and pretend I have a regular set of tools.
  21. I will never be an iPhone guy. Certainly not so I can get some ridiculous, hair-brained idea of a tool-phone connection to work. As for holding out for the Dewalt... Too late. Already took the plunge on Milwaukchink stuff, and my projects will not wait for me to try to return this junk and then wait for the beginning of summer to buy some 'merican-made tools.
  22. Well, the fit-and-finish may not be first-rate, but at least the One Key sucks ass!
