  1. hmm do I choose steak or bacon as my favorite candy.
  2. So as many have known I recently purchased a flexvolt miter saw. I had a question about the charger. I was doing my initial testing to make sure the saw is in working order and noticed when I inserted the batteries into the charger it charged like normal but the fans didn't turn on on either port. From what I could see it looked like it had fans because there was a vent in the same location as the single port flexvolt fast charger and the manual, which I actually read, mentioned something about fans turning on when the batteries need cooling down. I tested a battery from the miter saw set in one of my single port flexvolt fast chargers and the fan turned on. Does the dual port flexvolt charger have fans? If yes should they turn on shortly after a battery is inserted like the single port flexvolt fast chargers? I also noticed that there is two versions of the charger. one has the ports with the fan vents and the other has ports that look like the 20v chargers and no vent. Mine has the vents.
  3. yep he might own your tough system boxes too.
  4. bought this the other day for my new DCS388T2 recip. Also bought the DHS790AT2 miter saw. The storage case is quite nice.

    the battery might overload and explode if you gave it monster haha.
  6. @comp56 I was talking about a desktop. I've never built one before and I can't say if its cheaper or not. I was just saying from what I've been told its cheaper.
  7. @DR99 doesn't @77Ford own all tough system boxes?
  8. I wonder if anyone will put festool as the answer for the best bang for your buck question.
  9. my dad was saying the average tradesman working right now is in their 50's. All kids now days want is jobs that pay lots of $$$$ like medical field, lawyer field, entertainment, software, or they are the type who doesn't do anything with their life and is stuck with minimum wage jobs or unemployed. My school in a town of around 3000 people is getting a new school and guess what the wood, metal, and auto shops got smaller and what else is the new school getting, a fancy theater (I don't see a need for it). I don't know how many students in small town america like plays/musicals but I'm sure its less than those who like shop classes. At least when I was in high school theater type stuff was an after school thing. A class wasn't even offered and at most the old theater may have gotten used around 4 or 5 times a semester and that was mostly for student meetings whereas the shops got heavily USED EVERY SINGLE DAY school was in session and we didn't build no birdhouses either. We actually built stuff like full size metal dump trailers to fancy wooden gun cabinets. Its crazy to see how blind administrations are to the importance of shop classes. It keeps students who may not like school or struggling students interested in school because its a way to get away from all the tests and quizzes and homework. It also can teach them basic math skills because you have to figure up materials and even improve communication skills if say they gotta call a store to get some wood or metal.
  10. something about a tundra with white body and black trim/rims/detail that just stands out against any other truck as looking amazing.
  11. @Conductor562 Windows computers are kinda iffy when you buy a prebuilt machine. A cheapo one especially a laptop/tablet will probably not be very reliable or prone to more problems than a higher end computer. The cheaper computer may include "gimicky" features that may not have all the kinks worked out. Also for the price, the performance of a cheap computer can be low and the computer may have extra bloatware. Bloatware is a package of softwares and free trials that computer manufacturers will install onto a computer, and it tends to cause performance issues or make the computer prone to malware. I would suggest spending a little extra cash and getting something a bit more expensive because the performance will be better and reliability will be better.To get the most bang for your buck you should find a friend that knows how to build a computer and have them work with you to build the ideal computer for your wife for her needs. Performance will be higher per dollar than a factory built computer and it won't have bloatware.
  12. oh sweet how do you like it? It reliable? Did it seem pricey to you?
  13. you got around 34 boxes?
  14. quite the small collection you got there haha. Its actually pretty big. Is each box filled with tools?
  15. I take it you have even more dewalt stuff?
  16. cant wait till their early 2017 releases then their june event.
  17. does the flexvolt option have a riving knife? or at least an option to install one?
  18. could the bailout in whenever it was have anything to do with the high truck prices?
  19. You did say dodge so the newest dodge would be a 2009 model or something which would probably be a reasonable price by now.
