  2. Other hobbies

    I've always been interested in a ham radio set up.  Need the license. Maybe when i buy a house instead of rent I'll fulfill that hobby. Like the trees all around the house for seclusion. That's the way to go.

    Well I am selling the ryobi tools Monday so some next time I'll be making my first cordless bosch purchase.  Have a few bosch corded tools. And the radio i bought is bosch. Seems like the logical choice for me.  Thanks for the feedback everyone.

    So I've decided to invest in the 12v line for both the drill/ impact combo plus I'm eventually gonna get the 12v 16gauge shear. Shear is big reason for me.  And the bosch 12v drills are top rated. So I'm selling all my ryobi tools 3 drills and batteries and an older ryobi circular saw to a coworker to fund it. Then I'm gonna choose which brand i wanna invent into for 18v but don't really need 18v especially since I'm usually using a corded drill unless it requires an extention cord simply because I'm lazy lol. Anybody else using the bosch 12v line.  How do you like them?

    I wanted to get that but I just don't want a another different battery considering I'm all ready invested in the Dewalt 20v line and Milwaukees 12v line

    Only 8v line there is currently.

    these things are pretty nice. i have both the straight version and the gun version. out of the two i would say i like the straight version better but only wish the clutch feature was on it. i keep the gun version at home and i use it all the time when taking apart chassis or covers. i also find it easier to use with 3" hex bits or longer without bit holders. that way i never really lose the bit when disengaging from the fastener. 

     

    at first when i got my straight version i thought it would just be a gimmic but its actually a pretty handy tool. 

    grats on ur purchase theultimatehic. i know u will use it more and more. only thing sucks about the dewalt 8v stuff is that there is only like these 2 types of screw guns. straight and gun, and the lame flashlight. also the batteries are like 40-50 bucks. thats where dewalt sticks it to us. :/

     

    This one is both pistol grip and inline. The grip rotates 180 degrees.  Best of both worlds.

    So i bought the dewalt gyroscopic 8v drill package. On Saturday i installed my security system for the shop. 3 cameras all mounted to metal studs behind drywall and 1 installed into 16 gauge steel bracket on bay door. The drill was used for screwing everything in. Don't have drill bits with quarter inch hex end so regular drill for pre drilling steel. The 8v was light, easy to keep in the back pocket and definately is what i expected. A manual drill turned electric. You can change the clutch to do light screwing like switch plates or put a self tapper into a stud. I also liked that the clutch or whatever it is locks so if you lock the trigger switch you can use it like a regular screwdriver such as when i put a 2 inch screw into pine and needed a lil more to get the screw in(it was a test did better then i thought). Overall i would recommend off first impression. Next step is seeing how it last in a shop but a 3 year warranty is included.

    So went to lowes(convienence) to replace my auto center punch. See how this one last lol. But since i was in a tool store and have a problem, my name is aaron and im an addict, i bought the 8v dewalt drill.  And since the dewalt distributor was there i got a 10% off coupon. 40 minutes later i bought the tool i needed and the tool i was gonna buy on amazon next week.  Hopefully the wife doesn't look at the account hahaha.
