Bremon Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Planning on a 2755B myself, and was dismayed to see my usual supplier jack their price by 10% to match everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruton Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Grabbed a 60t Diablo on my daily trip to HD. Had a gift card and thought I would try one out for the new miter saw. Getting ready to do the trim work in my bathroom so we will see how she does. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've mainly only used Diablo for my circular saws. I figured with the new miter I might as well broaden my horizons!

Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk i used to use freud/diablo but the ones I linked are the only ones that have a super clean cut on big box ply wood, everyone i know swears by freud but i just use the same hitachi blade I've had for years.

Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Yeah I actually have several tools Kruton. I've got a 6" triangle, a couple of squares, corner clamps, a bevel gauge and this triangle as well as the Paolini rule which is absolutely awesome. I have been lucky and have monitored and subscribed to their site and they have sales occasionally but Toolnut sells their tools too and offers free shipping. Also to note that I have a couple of their one time tools but lately some of them have been super expensive and serve no legitimate purpose that can't be replicated with a cheaper alternative. Regardless, super nice tools that I have and the quality is seriously good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruton Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Was waiting for me when I got home for lunch just now. I don't have the aluminum but I have been pretty satisfied with my Milwaukee pipe wrench. Is that the only Milwaukee pipe wrench you have?

Is that the only Milwaukee pipe wrench you have? Good to hear. Yes, and also the first aluminum one. Don't use them much, other than for the occasional threaded conduit. Have mostly old Ridgids. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no pipe wrench expert, by any means. 2-1/2" capacity for an 18" seems pretty good, as is it only weighing like 3.5 pounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 I actually have no pipe wrenches currently myself. Been going back and forth between ridgid aluminum and the Milwaukee cheater. Cheater seems sort of gimmicky but stores compactly at least. The Ridgid is USA made though. Tough call. No money for that though this month, I'll be ordering a DCN660, an M18 floodlight and the Dewalt USB port within the next 24 hours. I'm disappointed that the USB only outputs 1.5 amp, but it is nice that it has two ports. Two devices at .75 amp is typical Dewalt though, even their USB chargers are slow as hell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
