    A whole bunch of shit I don't need. already have m18, now im buying m12. picked up a band saw and a boroscope, have a dead fucking rat in truck. Already ripped out center console and blower, no dice. Sumbitch is probably in my hvac. I hope not, don't feel like yanking dash. Little bastards chewed up half a roll of paper towels, cant find evidence of any shreds anywhere.

    There have only been 3 cats in my life that i took a liking too. All are dead now. I just don't like how they plant their ass on the countertop. That is why I'm a dog person. With that being said, no more dogs for me. Too damn hard when they die. I don't need to be bawling my ass off for 3 days ever again.

    As a ProAm, I also suggest new supply lines for the faucet if it didn’t come with any.

    That puller looks nice. I’m thinking of picking up one of that style because it has that embedded nail recess maker. Comes in handy doing demo.

    Did you check your cabin air filter area inside/behind the glovebox? Had a family of baby chipmunks living in mine earlier this summer, luckily they all made it out alive.

    Yeah I did, first time it was covered in mouse shit and chewed through, I blocked off the holes in windshield cowl. this time it was clean, so I am not really sure how the little bastards got in. This is the fourth time I have had to deal with rodents in this damn truck, wont touch the camry or the supra. Thank God so far so good.

    Bryan, do you have this one? A ton of YouTubers rave about it. Looks a hell of a lot easier to use than an angle grinder for cutting

    I have that cutoff wheel and it is great. I use it quite a bit from cutting smaller rebar, to a quick chop of EMT or 1" conduit, etc..... That is one of my staples in the m12 line.

    You guys are a bad influence. I have a collection of Ryobi 18v and 40v tools that have been good to me. But I just spend $$$:spending: on some new Milwaukee stuff, I got some M12 and M18 tools.

    I have a combo from Ryobi, works fine in most cases, MOST.
    Recently was trying to trim some small trees (under 5 feet and twigs at best not branches) with a 3 inch trunk, the Ryobi almost killed me...
    Also, trying to screw the fence into the 2x2, can't. Was very disappointed, had to break out the good old hammer to hammer the nails home.
    Thought about going after Milwaukees, but man, those are not cheap.... I don't need a lot, just some basics, two or three tools with some batteries.
    Money is tight, and you guys are bad influence...... sigh

    I made the switch from Dewalt to Milwaukee, and havent turned back. I keep transitioning all of my off-brand and random shit for Milwaukee. I am trying to slowly do it, but its pretty much has taken over and I've spent way too much at HD the last few weeks.

    Exactly, I mean, sooner or later I'll have to get Milwaukee, but let me rest a bit, the surgery bill wasn't nice..... Hence, can't do the secret Santa thing this year

    I was building some wainscoting in a basement a couple weeks ago and it sucked trying to hand sand in tight spots. The people really liked it when I was done. So sounds like next year I'll be doing it upstairs in their house. Decided I was going to pick one of these up to make it easier next time.PXL_20241022_195405556.MP.jpg Screenshot_20241114-194701~2.png
