My tool of the day today was my M18 Fuel 1 1/8″ Rotary Hammer. It made quick work of 8 5/8″ holes in a foundation wall today. I would like to add the dust collection attachment if i find a good deal on it.

Woke up to about an inch of snow on the ground, so I had to get the shovel back out of the shed. All the snow melted by the end of the work day and we had a high in the upper 40’s.

Yesterday we had a high of 19 and we got about 2 inches of snow.

Helped my parents put the coats of poly on their floor after spending an extra day resanding and staining the living room because of some deep swirls and some blotches.

On top of the new rafter square, I saw that Milwaukee is also coming out with a framing square. I also saw their expanding plate levels on the same retailers website.

My TOTD was my Fuel leaf blower, it was great for clearing off the sidewalks and driveway today

Got to give a big Thanks to Bosch and BeThePro.

Congrats! It’s awesome not having to get an extension cord out whenever you want to grind something.

We finally got some snow! About 2 inches of powder and it was blowing around all day. High in the teens and a low of -8. Wind chill could get down to the negative 40’s.

Helped my dad sand down his oak floor for refinishing today. He is done with the drum sander so I ran the edger and he used my 6 inch ROS sander to get where I couldn’t.

Cute dog. How old and is it a he or a she and what name are you calling him or her?

He is tens weeks old and his name is Fusion. I joke that he is half panda and half skunk, but he is actually a border collie and Aussie Shepard mix.

All the sanding I did today makes me think twice about getting one of the 6 inch sanders from the list.

Got a keyhole router bit for a couple bucks online and put it to use today.

My tool of the day was my colt router, I used it to cut a keyhole into the back of our unity cross so we could finally hang it on the wall.
