Anyone have any experience with the old corded 8.5” model?

IIRC Dan @woodman_412 used the 8 1/2″ as his jobsite saw. There may be some discussion around that in the archives somewhere.

He might be busy right now preppin for what will be left of hurricane Dorian. Looks like it’s headed strai…

Here is a Tool Box Buzz video review of the new track saw. It seems very impressive.

I thought so too. Learned some interesting features about it I didn’t know before. I really like that track conjector system. That’s a big advantage over other systems.

Dan Pattison @woodman_412 recently received one…

What brand of contact cement you use?

Thanks! I use Helmitin Helmistick 1685 that I buy from Robert Bury. It’s my favorite contact cement and works very well.

Finally got a new episode out guys! In this latest episode I show step-by-step how to make and install a countertop end cap. This was a technique that I used a lot when I worked in the countertop in PEI. Comes in very handy when you don’t have end cap material available. Hope you guys find it helpful and let me know if you have any…[Read more]

Here’s the link Kevin but it doesn’t look like it’s available on Amazon anymore.

Thanks again Dan, but is this an actual Bosch OEM part that is either hard to find or simply is a discontinued consumable made by Bosch? Or is it a 3rd party product for Bosch vacs?…

I think the shop has everything they need at the moment Lon but I’ll definitely let you guys know if something comes up. Even when I’m not able to make it in to the shop for awhile I usually…[Read more]

It’s great to be able to have a vehicle do double duty. Having doors on both sides of the van is great too. My van has doors on both sides and I love it. So much easier to load and unload.

Hey guys, I just wanted to post a few update photos from the IWK shop. I haven’t been able to make it in to the shop for awhile but one of the volunteers sent me the pics this week. He said that having all the Bosch tools has been great and they make a big difference in the projects they’ve been doing. They’ve been working on creating templates…[Read more]

Boschmanbrian wrote:Thanks Dan , can I ask you where did you find that bag and what is the cost of them.

I think I bought the bag on Amazon Brian. I think it was somewhere around $70 or so.

So you can empty out the fleece bag and reuse it?

I don’t think so with these ones. But I think Dan has bought one that is supposed to be reusable I think it’s slightly thicker than the one I bought and have a zipper ? I forget his profile name and it’s not programmed in my new phone

Or d…

lol I’m hoping so Kevin. I was in the shop this week but I ended up being a mechanic for most of the week. The van needed two new tie rod ends, a lower control arm bushing, and a stabilizer bar link. I got all that done this week and I’m taking it for inspection on Monday. Then t…[Read more]

Yes I am still a moderator Charlie although I don’t get a chance to check in very often anymore. I don’t have the time to stay on top of the latest threads anymore but if you guys are looking for me to chime in on something just tag me and I’ll respond.

The 18V vac has been a real game changer for me. On a lot of smaller jobs I take it along instead of my VAC090S and on bigger jobs I take both. For small jobs it does both clean up and dust extractor duty. I love how small and light it is and the cordless convenience is awesome! I’ll be sharing more thoughts and experiences on Instagram and it…[Read more]

I just released two new videos yesterday, one for the base MPT and one for the MPT accessories. These new videos replace the original videos and present similar information but in a fresh way. The original base MPT video was the first video that I ever did and I wasn’t happy with the production quality of that or the accessories video so it was…[Read more]

Good to hear that your guy’s kids enjoyed watching it too! My girls still enjoy watching it even though they’ve watched it a million times now lol.

lol thanks Dirty. I had fun making the video and having a go at stop motion animation. That would be interesting to see how a bigger blower and a skateboard would work.
