Gonna give yellow a try again. Loved my Bosch 18v brushless impact but didn't like the drill or cordless saw. My partner has red and has has 3 different trigger issues...pass.

The 887 was on special at my Ace and I have the 991 coming. Now if they will just release a 20v 6.5" brushless saw....06fe902d8efa406c0b380f261bb40697.jpg

I picked up 4 Bosch GLM40X LDM's today. I REALLY like them. Small, easy to use and the Real Time measurement is awesome in the remodel business. It's dead on to the 1/32 at 65' so far.

I believe it, if it's anything like the little glm15 I got. It's a 50' one, but I recently got it out to 52'4" and some fraction before it blanked out, so that's cool. And yes, is very accurate. It seems my favorite Bosch tools have lasers lol

I believe it's rated up to 135' indoors. I've only tested its accuracy to 65'

Ditto

 

I just bought this saw a couple weeks ago, LOVE the saw but the blade not so much. Replaced it with a Diablo and all is good.

That's one thing I did notice though for the 6 1/2 there are very few blades at the store to choose from. But for the 7 1/4 version there's a ton... I'm really still on the fence about this one vs swapping for the 7 1/4".

I bought that socket set a while ago, then promptly forgot i had it. LOL

I'm sitting here laughing at what you wrote. I did the same thing. Bought it through it in the tool bag and forgot I had it lol.

No real tool purchases this week, but UPS just came with this Irwin German-made 3-1/2" core bit. Got it for a steal at $38, should have been more like $150+. Would have preferred SDS-Max, but I've got an older spline rotary hammer also. Also this set of sanding blocks and a mess of paper and a bunch of flap discs, as I've got some body work I need to get done.

Look like a great core bit for the price Sparky.. Nice score, I believe Hilti and/or Bosch sells spline to SDS adapters to use a spline bit in an SDS rotary hammer or vice/versa?
