jtkendall Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 @Jronman Correct! I was having a hard time coming up with hints, so I'm glad I don't need to do that any more because the next one was probably going to just be "it's teal". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 @jtkendall I wasn't sure what kind of fence it had if any but knew it has consumables and cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 This one doesn't involve batteries but technically cordless. Name 3 companies other than Tanos/Festool who make systainers compatible with Tanos systainers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Metabo and Makita are correct. Just one more. The other guys listed have Tanos supply the systainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stercorarius Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 The L-boxx is made by tanos too right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D W Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 (I can't be the correct one now) I just googled to check my previous answer. Triton do have Systainers but I don't know if they actually make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record it says Tanos in the top left corner above the black label. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 well Hitachi was the last one. I suppose @dmz2084 , @D W , or @kornomaniac can be up. Far as I know the rest have their systainers provided by Tanos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kornomaniac Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 I can't think of a decent question so one of the other guys can go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D W Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Name 5 types of cordless tools with one of it's features/specifications that always uses imperial units to describe it, regardless of whether its a metric or imperial country? Bonus point: Name one that is the reverse of this (always metric). I can't actually answer this so perhaps it can just generate discussion.

aessu Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Circular saws - blade size Impact wrenches - socket size impact drivers - bit attachment size angle grinders - disc size drill drivers - chuck attachment thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see metric too commonly used for angle grinder discs, at least it's common here in AUS (125mm for 5inch, 115mm for 4.5inch, 100mm for 4inch).

dwain Posted November 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 i guess ratchets, if you count them as separate from wrenches. ooh, ROUTERS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D W Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) I think I'm in over my head with this question. I was counting on Drills always described as 3/8 or 1/2 chucks, however, now I think I've seen metric used somewhere (10mm or 13mm). I'm confident impact wrenches always use imperial. I was also counting on Impact drivers always being described as 1/4 inch, and circular saws and mitre saws as 6.5 inch etc (I should have known this was wrong). Perhaps impact wrenches are the only one. Edited November 11, 2017 by D W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, even Makita product numbers have the inch size. (dga452 is 4.5 inch, dga 504 is 5 inch, dga700 is 7 inch, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 @D W I wouldn't be surprised if there were 5 things always in imperial. I can think of an answer for the bonus question Tool batteries are measured in volts and watts which are both metric. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not implying the size of the chuck, but the thread it uses to attach the chuck. 1/2"-20UNF is definitely imperial. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
