  1. I have the 15g angel finish nailer and the Brad nailer and I couldn't be happier with them. The finish nailer could almost be used for framing with the power it has,  leaves a larger hole then the Brad nailer or I would use the finish for all my trim work.  But no ramp up time,  no problem sinking whatever nail in put in it and ive only had one jam between both Guns in 6 months of having them.

  2. Im using a galaxy s6 edge, i have no trouble connecting to my m18 radio and the app worked for a short time.  Hasn't worked at all lately. I was mostly interested because of the ability to track lost or stolen equipment.  The only settings I've ever  needed was  variable potentiometer and my fat digit...what i was really impressed with and moved to the top of the wishlist was the surge impact driver.  That thing is on another level and would definitely be first choice out the truck instead of my m12 hammer drill.

  3. I can't ever seem to link to my 2 tools that are one key compatible.  Even if my phone is touching the tool itself,  if i do its only for a second then they are gone and I can't change any settings.  Ive tried removing the app and reinstalling it a couple times and my inventory ive added is there but nothing when it comes to  near by. 

  4. Thanks, its just led strip lighting. I got 16 ft from ebay and ran 8 ft down each side stuck to the upper portion of the inside boxes.  Best part is because they are leds i can leave them on over night and it wouldn't kill my battery, they were cheep too.

  5. I came across a fine cut saw in a lot of tools i purchased and at first i wasn't even sure what it was or what was missing  (missing blade) 

    So after a quick search on goggle i was in lightened to what appears to be a nice little tool to have in my collection, especially if i pick up the table that it attaches to. But it almost seems like its a dated tool since they don't sell it any more and the fact that I have never seen one.  

    I was almost thinking that it was kinda replaced by the multi tool since the multi tool can flush plunge cut just as well and meny other things the fine cut can't. Either way i like it and im gonna hang on to it and hopefully pick up the table for it but first i gotta get a blade. 

  6. Also have to note im not a Milwaukee snob that only uses red tools,  that's just my cordless lineup,  but in the rest of the truck and the shop i have a lot of porter cable and some choice bosch tools, one or 2 rigid and even a few ryobi  (no shame in my game) oh yeah and a lot of snapon to keep the trucks on the road as i do all my own service work and repairs along with a long list of custom work to make them what I need them to be.  built not bought...

  7.  I got my start doing concrete and masonry work and that grew into exterior contracting but every winter i would be doing more and more interior work  ( finishing basements, additions, kitchens and baths) but always working for someone who didn't appreciate me or what I brought to the table.  Ive always had my own truck and tools and took pride in what I do. So finally i had enough and about a year ago maybe a little more i linked up with a realtor who backed me with a house and a budget, i did everything myself except for the electrical,  and HVAC and i hit a home run.  The house sold before it even went on the market for full asking price of 345k ,and so did the next one for 380. Im finishing up a 3rd house as we speak and i couldn't be happier with what I do each and every day plus the major perk of it all is my collection of tools that is ever expanding!

  8. As someone who has been around snapon boxes all my life and used snapon as a benchmark to compare other boxes to, let me tell you something...IMHO these boxes are almost impossible to beat considering the quality of construction as well as finish compared to the price of the box. Its not just a flashy box, those drawer sliders are meant to handle the weight and again IMO that is the most important part of a box and how it will hold up over a lifetime of tool storage.

    Lol Tony!

    What's up welcome aboard!!

    That is sick!! The organization is quite different than I've seen with them on the door like that, I myself prefer my rolling jobsite box so I don't have to bring in individual tools. Oh and you want to see a guy with a Milwaukee problem look no further than yours truly lol!!!

    Im hoping to start a support group for guy's with the "problem " we have, but everyone i ask to join is to busy drooling over the cordless lineup pamphlet that comes in the packaging of a new tool,to be bothered with anything else...???

    Hi my name is walt and im addicted to Milwaukee tolls....

    I definitely don't have a problem with yellow tools, as a matter of fact I own some serious gear that happens to be yellow but as you can see dewilt is just now getting they're act together as far as a cordless lineup goes. (What a lineup it is?) my jaw hit the floor when i saw the display at home depot,  and then again when I saw the prices...

  12. Hello all, and thanks for letting me be a part of what looks to be an awesome forum.  I look forward to gaining vast amounts of tool knowledge from members and who knows maybe I can share a little myself.  Anyway I've been working in the building trades for 17 years and have ventured out into being in business for myself about a year ago, but tools have long been my passion and I take great pride in my work as well as my tools and i finally have a place to talk with like minded people and show off my tools and how my truck is setup.
