    Had my buddies 8yr old son 3d print me some M18 & M12 battery holders for me. Screwed em to a couple of left over pieces that my niece didn't use from a vanity she bought a while ago. Bought a few Milwaukee decals and here's the final product...

    Much better than having them sitting on a table right below. I keep my batteries inside vs. garage where it's extremely hot/cold.

    A little behind the times. Finally got around to upgrading some old tools

    Gen1 mid torque to the Gen2
    Original M12 ratchet to the high speed ratchet

    I will not make a joke about repiping your mom…

    anyway… check your trigger. I’ve had some issues with the trigger mechanisms on a few of my Milwaukee tools lately. It might be worth a look before you toss it.

    Picked up a pair of M12 3.0 batteries and got an M12 5.0HO for free with the home depot BOGO sale. On Sunday the 2 pack of 3.0s were on sale for $80, not sure if it is still that price in store.

    Pex is complete shit. Stupid mother fuckers in Florida like to run pex in the attic. Had someone who didn't know how to fucking crimp properly. Needless to say a disaster. All to save a few cents and save some time. Lazy Plumbers.

    Same thing would have happened if they ran copper, and probably worse if the installer didn't know how or didn't care to do it right.

    Scrolled back 5 or 6 pages and wanted to ask, what is everyone's opinion on dying your red tools black?

    I love mine but so does the wife. Its the only tool she goes looking for.
    Frustrating because she never puts it back where she found it.
    And When I go to use it the battery is always dead.
    My solution - leave the dead battery in it.

    Built a packout wall on the back side of the cab. I had to lower the mounting brackets because of my Renegade tonneau. Both sides the same. Very nice fit of two packout wall plates. The BedRug provides a tight fit on the bottom.

    Started a tire repair packout to copy you but then realized the need to remove the bracket on the inflator and ran out of time. And the heavy duty impact is too large so I need to put the mid-impact in the kit.
    The second packout will be straps and tie downs. Not very noticeable in images but where the packout wall attached to the rail I added some tie downs hooks to have something to attach the tie downs.

    The inflator bracket should take you 30 seconds or so to remove.
