Makita 5007FK 15 amp, Great Circular saw for the..

Great Circular saw for the money
I used to use American tools like Sears Craftsman and Skill Saws for 20 years. The problem is that the motors are not well made. They last well, but they start up with a jerk which is not a great thing, you have to wait a second and let them [...]

I found one of these at my local home supply store and immediatly brought it home. I found it to be very useful for putting a hollow grind into the bevel of my chisels and plane blades. The way I use it is to hollow grind the chisel bevel until the [...]

Makita 6935FDWDE, True variable speed

True variable speed
Makita has two 14.4 impact drivers on the market. The older one is the 6932 and the newer the 6935. While both are priced about the same, the older is widely promoted packaged with a drill/driver unit. I chose to forgo the allure of a free drill/driver unit and [...]

DEWALT DW682K Heavy-Duty, A Great Value

A Great Value
First, the rack & pinion design of the fence makes this a very stable and accurate tool. It is powerful and the grip and switch location is convenient. When used without the vacuum attachment, this machince shoots the chips right at the operator. However I always use a vacuum attachment because [...]

They must have some geniuses working at Black and Decker!
This is the best new tool to come along in twenty years. What a great idea and excellent implementation of it. This is the coolest crescent wrench I have ever seen. It makes it so easy to work on projects where you have different size nuts [...]

DEWALT DW7054 Crown, Not worth it!

Not worth it!
Typical of Dewalt accessories, this item is grossly over-priced. It is made of thin metal and I never got a sense of precision when I installed this on my Dewalt 12″ compound miter saw.
Update (2/4/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

A great drill/driver with a Classic look from the 40’s-50’s
I just bought this drill over the weekend. The classic styling of a drill from the 1940’s-1950’s is what sold me at first–it’s a drill just too good looking to pass up. However, more importantly it is a great tool, with some very 21st [...]

Trojan TS-27 27-Inch, Trojan Sawhorses

Trojan Sawhorses
This sawhorse is absolutely the best foldable and portable sawhorse on the market, and it is also one of the most inexpensive. The metal angle iron hinged legs with gripper teeth make these horses extremely strong yet easy to transport. Also, these leg stands can be used with any length of 2X [...]
