    For commercial applications, I agree. And if I had a commercial budget I would be right there with ya (milwaukee and all). As it is, I'm B&D and Makita for cordless, plus air tools. Milwaukee is good shit though.

    I have MANY Milwaukee, it’s good enough for factory work. Their arsenal of cordless grows and gets better by the year.

    Also: Jet brand tools. You can’t go wrong.

    Ryobi too. I had a bunch of experience at work with makita so I went with them, but I can vouch for ryobi makita and Milwaukee. All really solid

    Lies.

    One can never have too many tools.

    Unless you’re my wife. She thinks I have too many tools, just like I think she has too many shoes. Agree to disagree.

    hmmm....I work in a factory and we got a Milwaukee electric drill for packaging parts into wood boxes, and I gotta say I'm not that impressed.... maybe we just skimped and bought the wrong model, but it seems pretty platic-y and not long lasting...


    We did buy it through MSC, so.....

    Fuck. Removing. Tile.

    I thought I somehow got dirt all over my arms until I realized it was all dried blood, and at that point my arms were already too destroyed for a long sleeve to have any real effect. That shit is sharper than glass!

    The pneumatic chisel worked great, but it created a mini dust storm so I went to a 4-lbs hammer and various masonry chisels which did the job at about the same speed. Lesson learned.

    The fucking desert. I hate the fucking desert.
    Get a weed burner and heat up the adhesive before chiseling....it should come right off. Besides that, using a small flame thrower in the house....what could possibly go wrong?

    Bullshit. Not possible. That’s right up there with “I have enough clamps” as an outright lie.

    I used to have trouble walking after gigs because I was drunk. Now it's because of all the aches and pains. Those speakers are a lot heavier after a show than they were before.

    Fuck getting older.

    My step-father builds wooden boats as a retirement hobby when he isn't battling cancer. You should see his clamp collection. I know I saw at least 100 of them in use at one time when he was building his chris craft. I'll try to get a picture of them next time I'm in the shop.

    Boat builders clamp collections far dwarf any traditional woodworkers, those 100 are probably his reserves.
