jtkendall Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Decided to order a Dewalt DNP618 edge guide for my 611 compact router. I had ShopYourWay points expiring plus bonus points. Retails for $16 on Sears and Amazon, CPO wanted $22 before it's Presidents Day sale, and Acme wants $25. Cost me $7.91 after points and over $4 of that was shipping. It's always better when I can find things that have free shipping, but I can't complain when it's half price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a pair of Milwaukee but took them back as I pinched my finger the first time using them. I really like Knipex(Germany) and Grip-on(Spain) locking pliers, they're soo smooth and the jaws have no slop. These particular Grip-ons are the first I've had where the jaw is misaligned, I might try to bend them into alignment, I'd normally exchange them...but I'm going to use these little guys soo infrequently it's not worth the hassle. I bought them because I had a need and ended up using some regular pliers because I only had normal sized and larger locking pliers. These are 5" Grip-on also makes Snap-on's and Urrea's locking pliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tx_woodworker Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 I purchased a Hitachi staple gun and a 18 gauge brad nailer. What a world of difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like that idea of having material/consumables like your glue in the same box as the relevant tools! Oh yea I put some more tools in there too it will work out great for my indoor jobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicholasShetley Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 This little gem showed up today. I also did some torque testing on it and it would not loosen a 3/4 inch bolt torqued to 600 ft lbs. I'll get a 7/8 bolt next week and try it again. It is still incredibly powerful though. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justinkendall Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 I'm planning on buying this Anybody know how good it is?It sucks! It's good for vacuuming out a vehicle and cleaning up small amounts of things like saw or drywall dust but that's about it. The filter also clogs quickly. The M18 vacuum is a lot more handy and has stronger suction so it will pickup larger chunks.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnarlyCarl Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Boss got all us guys the Klein 6-1 nut driver, my guess is he got a screaming deal on them because nobody wanted them ON ACCOUNT OF NOT INCLUDING A 1/2" NUT DRIVER... seriously Klein, someone fell asleep at the desk on this one. 3/16" is a strange size for us in the mechanical world, can't think of the last time i used that size .. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it for sawdust, metal shavings, pet hair and my dog's torn up toys(stuffing, torn fabric, shredded rope). It's great for quick jobs and using it as such actually gives you pretty good battery life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milwaukee_man_stan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Guess what I bought at HD yesterday? No not the vac at least not yet I found out the compact tape isn't double sided But the fractions might buy that one off Other than that it's lanyard ready and an amazing tape thus far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
