MikeyB Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 I had to find a new case for my Bosch jigsaw. So I picked up another Milwaukee organizer. It fits perfect. I had also picked up a new set of Bosch jig saw blades a couple of weeks ago.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got server all and they are fantastic pliers. Super durable finish and the grips are great. Irwin commissioned NWS to make their high end pliers and they want a turd load more than the NWS for rebranded tools!

Testo can be expensive but they are high quality. I've used UEI and KANE analyzers and the Testo beats them hands down in every way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of the kaizen foam, but not sure how it would work with the power cord? The jig saw actually fits pretty snug in the organizer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bremon Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 I've never seen NWS pliers in person, they look nice and I've heard good things though! Ordered more Knipex today. 12" Cobra (comfort grip), 5" pliers wrench and 5" cobra (both dipped). That puts me at 3 pliers wrenches and 4 cobras. Also ordered and received new high leverage combo pliers but my snipes aren't in yet. Was going to go with new lineman's too but I'm torn between the standard version and the one with crimper and fish tape puller. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnarlyCarl Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 .. I have these hole saws for 1-1/2" and 2" PVC, should have just bought the whole kit then, but now I just had my boss buy me all this. From acme. Still waiting on the m18 compact blower, backordered. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I got rid of mine was because the jaws don't open wide enough for cutting standard electrical stuff like BX etc.Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiltiWpg Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 I have cable cutters for that kind of stuff. Electricians don't like to carry 2 tools to do one job. I have armored cutters that never get used. Cable cutters don't like BX very much.Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
