rrich1 Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Knipex and witte awl courtesy of sears. If anyone needs Forster bits go check out menards. Those were originally around $15 a piece and got them all for $15. I already have their set and these were the one not included in it.

pancing Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 These things have 30+ ga wire for the windings, i don't think I have ever seen any windings that have used wire this thick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really, really like those wrenches. I agree, I still have my 3/8" set and a separate 1/2" ratchet made by Williams Kobalt. I wish I had picked up the whole lineup but I was still in HS. I really don't know why I picked up the 3/8" set other than it came with a free 1/4" set that I wanted...that alone would be about $95, only $5 less than I paid for both sets.

77Ford01 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Does your HD do the 11% rebate match automatically? Or do they make you send it in. Mine will do the hf coupon and am really wanting to get the dewalt planer. Hf has a 25% off coupon starting tomorrow that I would love to use. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk I still have to mail it in.....but I figured this was the best week to try. As far as my HD......I was turned down last week for the first time ......but I am persistent [emoji6] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bremon Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Ordered a 2701-22CT M18 brushless compact drill kit today. $175 CAD. I must have missed the memo about batteries getting a price hike, 2.0 and 5.0 prices are ridiculous (2.0 was always ridiculous). Ended up getting this kit for cheaper than a pair of 2.0s would have cost me. I'll sell the charger for 15-20 bucks and save even more. Was eyeing up the DCD791 compact Dewalt kit but at $250 everywhere, I'll wait until a decent deal, or a free battery toss-in etc. Not that I need a ton of drills but who can resist. Seems tougher to find the mid-level brushless from Milwaukee, I only seem to see the hammer drill and impact. Must not be a great seller. The 2701 doesn't have the mode selection collar the 2702 Hammer does but it's a larger drill, and I have a 2704 Fuel for the tough stuff anyway. In other news I found a buyer for my 2730 6.5" Fuel saw for $15 less than I bought my new 2731 7.25" Fuel for, and now I'm not sure if I even want to sell lol. Keep thinking "well having options is always a good thing!". Could always sell it and get the 2530 M12 for blade left and lightweight cutting. Decisions, decisions. It ain't easy being addicted to power tools. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 2701 has always attracted me but not enough to buy, and after down sizing my drill pile I use my m12 fuel for the level of work I would use that for Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I've downsized my M12 collection to "accessories" mainly. No drills etc in it anymore. The only tool I have is the 2520 Hackzall, the rest are bluetooth speaker, hoodies, USB power, lights. That may change with the 2530 5-3/8 circular saw. The 2701 was cheaper than an M12 Fuel kit currently lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verktools Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Bought a Milwaukee M18 - 2763-20 off Ebay. Could probably manage with the 2755 model, but always nice with a little extra power Exited to put it to use. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 It's a great impact verktool. I imagine you'll end up with both however. The 2763 is a big beast. Can't imagine running into much it couldn't handle though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its quite heavy its about the same weight of my milwuakee one key hammer drill. I clip the f/r switch sometimes if i dont pay attention but that happens on every tool i have 3xcept my hitachi. The drill feels like any other drill but my hitachi is number 1 in hand comfort. If i had to rate this thing 1 to 10 with my hitachi being 10 and the old 2604 fuel being 1 it would be a 7.

So there is a chance the 2755 end up in my toolshop in the future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
