He was wasting so much time with that thing one day. I was so close to handing him 70 dollars and saying its mine now and smashing it against the wall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're pretty good quality, and the swivel action is nice. They're 3/8" drive but that's easily fixed by a 2 dollar 1/2"-to-3/8" adapter...gonna be pretty sweet running these on the Flexzilla compact impact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little dinky cordless vacs always make me giggle. I have a Ryobi 18v vac that's pretty useless except for tidying up the bench and whatnot. It's got decent suck to it but the reservoir is so small you can't vacuum long before you have to stop and dump it out and clean the filter. If it's a small pile of sawdust or something it's okay, but anything substantial and you can't use it. One good thing about it though is when you dump a parts bin of tiny parts, you can vac it all up and don't have to get down on the floor and pick it all up by hand. I dropped a box of electrical connectors once and the vac was a wonder to pick it all up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL yeah the m12 vac is nice for a little bit of drywall dust or sawdust if i have cut a wall apart for plumbing items... but mine has sat idle ever since i got the m18 vac.. i think it's the combination of a huge increase in suction and that i like using a hose that 6 minutes ago, Kato said: Little dinky cordless vacs always make me giggle.

It really saves a ton of dicking around, especially with stuff that's that perfect size of being too small to grab easily with your fingers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much easier than dragging out the shop vac for small clean ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the filters don't cross over from the toolbox vac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the filters don't cross over from the toolbox vac I have never used it as a wet vac, so that is a non issue for me. I would like to try the new one, but I can't see buying it till this one dies. I also have two Ridgid shop vacs. The older one is about 12 years old. The on / off switch broke about a year ago. I emailed Ridgid about it and they sent me a new switch free of charge. Talk about customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, these vacs are not for that, haha. Hell a regular shop vac is too small for that. This is great for small dust, saw dust, and puppy hair pickup. I've been taking the puppy to work and he's shedding in the back seat so I wanted something I could quickly clean up without dealing with a cord. This has plenty of suck for that! It actually holds quite a bit of stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justinkendall Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 I had a few items I won from Bessey during their 12 days of Christmas giveaway on Facebook finally show up this morning. BV-HW45 4.5" Bench Vise I think this will be rather useful for some projects. I have to do something about the jaws since I will be using wood. Maybe make some wooden replacement jaws. D15-SET Compact Aviation Snips Comes with Straight, Left, and Right compact snips. I'm not liking the pouch because the snips being compact means that only about an inch of the snip is visible out of the pocket. It looked fine until I took the snips of the card backs. I think they use the same pouch for the compact and normal size snips. It also has an extra pocket that's rather small I guess it's for a marker. WMS-5 Welder's Magnetic Square (x2) I guess I need to invest in a welder now. They're really nicely made. The 112lbs of pull is rather nice. They're not strong enough to crush your fingers between them but are strong enough that you don't have to worry about them moving around on you. I need to pickup a metal service cart/tool storage cart and my original idea was to stick these to the side but now I'm thinking the better solution is to keep them in their boxes in a drawer. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboS1ice Posted February 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 My new vac came with a muffler and I don't know why I didn't get one a long time ago. Sound reduction isn't all that significant, but eliminating the stream of air from the back blowing shit everywhere is beneficial enough for meYea I think most people think it muffles the motor sound but it's more about the air flow, now it reduces the sound of the air exiting the vac which in itself can be rather loudSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
