We have a high of 37 today and the sun is out for the first time in a couple days. We have had a lot of ice that is finally starting to melt.

I would think that the dual bevel ability of the Milwaukee would make it much more desirable compared to the other 7 1/4 saws.

Congrats , I would like to hear more about this router , looks like a nice one , I believe it has the electric brake ?
Yup! Just playing with it last night it will take some getting used to, but I love the safety factor of it.

Hopefully I can get a couple of these for my Circular saws, right now there’s not a great packout box to put them in.

FedEx delivered a b9x in 5 inches of snow today, and I was happy it wasn’t delayed! I can’t wait to put this Fuel Router to work!

We got about 5 inches of rain today, followed by freezing rain, and now 50 mph wind gusts

Today I spent a lot of time deciding on the dimensions of the garage I will be building this summer and organizing the tools I keep in the house.

Congrats. Looks like good quality. Did you order them online. I can’t find them at any of the big box stores here.

Yes I did order them online. They were on separate orders that I wanted to get to the free shipping amount, so it was a win-win.

Got a few red squares, the 7” magnetic and 4 1/2 trim.

Road trip in high winds today, I probably used twice as much gas going against the wind that wit it. And the high was in the low 20’s.
At the rev dealer we heard of a customer bringing in a trade and the high winds blew it over. Talk about a bad day…

Spent most of the day today trying to figure out what wiring harness I need to upgrade my 4-pin trailer plug to a fully functional 7-pin plug.

Got some levels for Christmas from my father. They are a lot thinner and shorter than I thought they would be. They are definately cheaper than their regular box levels for a reason.

High of 42 degrees and cloudy/hazey all day. We had light rain off and on today but not much wind.

Congrats! I know a lot of people with that router and they love it.

Today I used my gts1031 table saw to cut down a piece of Masonite so cover some insulating styrofoam in the basement before we have company for Christmas.

I would love to get the MX Fuel inverter for camping, but don’t think I could justify the cost…
The framing nailer, however, I will be taking a long look at.

I wouldn’t say it’s a must have feature, but it’s nice to have it just slows down the rpm’s once the screw starts sinking into the material to prevent from stripping out the metal.

Today’s tool of the day was my mid-torque Milwaukee impact wrench that I used to help someone put their spare tire on.
