Opened a new thread,,, I think Doobie broke the last one…
I’m really diggin the spring loaded door hinge pin remover.I’d like to say my new M18 Super Hawg is amazing, but it hasn’t shipped yet, last I checked. Probably be here next week, with the other items. Not complaining at all, just itching to try it. One goodie will be here Friday, at least.
Might have to order a new Fein MM. Our old 250 that we moved the the truck when we got our new 350 for the van is acting up. I read somewhere the speed swicth goes bad. So today I opened it up and bypassed the swicth….boy did it run really fast…and loud…and hot…lol!
If I can’t get a new switch it will be time to replace it.

I ordered a new Makita XSH03z brushless 18v saw this morning. I already have the 18v 2battery saw, but this one is brushless and has the blade on the left…. And it was calling my name…
It should be here in a week or so.

That’s a nice saw, I’ve been using it for a while now. I love it.
Got the Bosch orbital 5 inch sander today. Had to walk out with a sander, and this one ended up being it. $59, down 10 from the regular price of $69. Hope it holds up.

Have you tried it yet? How’s it for vibration?

Have you tried the 36v version? I’m curious how it compares.

Ever thought of getting a Supercut or Vecturo instead Andrew? I’ve always kinda wanted one, but just never pulled the trigger. I do have two MMs though. An old allen key style and the newer clasp on type.

I used it quite a bit today. It doesn’t seem a whole lot different than my 15 year old Porter Cable was. It does have a variable speed dial, which has me puzzled. Never felt the need to sand slower.

Good luck with that thing….IMO, it’s a dud. The sander itself is good enough, but the hook and loop pad is crap. They are Not flat, so the discs don’t wear well.

I only ended up with it because Home Depot had a poor selection. I wanted the Dewalt 3 amp, but they had none. So I went to Lowes and this seemed to foot the bill.
I stopped by HD this evening. They have 2 packs of Makita 3Ah batteries for $99.

Needed some blades and a new jigsaw for one of the trailers. I have a barrel grip I keep for myself but a cheaper one is better for the trailer. Blades were on sale for a about 25% off The best price I could find.

No I haven’t,, the blades on the wrong side for me.

Removing certain coatings at a lower speed helps keep them from heating up and guming up your sanding pads. Helps them last longer basically.
well hit Lowes and Canadian tire and home depot yesterday, kept my purchasing to a minimum. This lufkin was still plasticky but for 5 dollars i’ll give it a go.
