Whats the brand on them and where are they made? I never shop at O'Reilys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stercorarius Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Whats the brand on them and where are they made? I never shop at O'ReilysThey are power torque brand. With a name like that I don't really need to say that they were made in China. They do have a lifetime guarantee. I just needed something affordable to take the shift solenoid off and I didn't own any offset box wrenches before so I figured I would kill two birds with one stone. They were $20 and feel pretty solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes them wrenches like that are just rebranded of bigger names, you never know when you find a diamond in the rough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kato Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Power Torque is made by Wilmar. I work for O'Reilly and use Power Torque, Performance Tool, GM Performance (all made by Wilmar) tools every day. They're nice, most of their tools are on par with any of the other brands that make the same types of tools 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khariV Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 For those that are into the Ryobi 18v line up, I present the SureBonder 18v glue gun! No need to wait for Black & Decker to release their cordless glue gun and don't even need a new battery platform because it runs on Ryobi batteries.

DR99 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Got home today and there was a nice, big box o toys waiting for me.More Red!I've been eyeballing the vacuum for a while. It's been a toss up between this one and the corded hybrid dewalt, but team red won out because it was just more powerful. The planer was a "well, I need a planer, might as well get the M18 and not worry about a cord" sort of decision. I do wish it was brushless like the leaked yellow XRP planer, but I probably won't notice the difference.Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI ended up getting the Dewalt only because Amazon had a good price during their holiday specials. It was only 84 dollars then so it was cheaper than the Milwaukee plus it has the corded option. The other thing is I feel like Milwaukee will update the vaccum any time to an awesome fuel version, so I keep waiting to see what happens.

DR99 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 The only tools I have got recently were some Proto combination wrenches because it was a good deal and a PB swiss screwdriver. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khariV Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Yea I think the knob in it directs the chip exhaustJimbo correctI fired it up last night and with my shop vac attached and there was virtually no mess at all. Quite a difference from the flying wood chip storm that I've seen with another planer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Yellow Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Bought me the DCS361B yesterday. The DCS365 might be lighter and have an increased cut capacity, but I don't really need that anyway.Should be here within 2 weeks [emoji2]Sent from somewhere by someone using something. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
