Got any cool tools lately?

Brown truck brought this Monday. I was not impressed. Lenses were hazy.



Took the plastic film off today. So much more betterer.

Won't reach clear across Fugly's hood.

Love the idea of using an existing battery system though.

I wonder if that would handle hydraulic hoses as well.

It's made to cut metal cables, so I would think so. If they get dull, you can replace the cutting head, but its not a lot cheaper than the whole thing.

Is that the stuff I got from you? I really like it as well, makes it really clean.

Yes, same hose. Good stuff, and Made in the USA.

I have enough stand alone, plug in to charge, stuff. Using my batteries was a priority. I have 8 of them in my shop, charged. 4 in my truck, charged.

I finished assembling my tool chest today, my neighbor helped me put it together. I put the tools I use most in it and I plan to add the side flip up table to it.

 

[folkenheath]

Are these items from your suppliers or sourced elsewhere?

I could use them too, I was recently gifted your blasters younger brother and I’m slowly trying to refurbish it.

I got my new Italian white letter race hose and new nozzles from McMaster, the hose doubled the price of the tool, but I can sand blast Ferrari's now...

I'm doing new carpet in my burb. I was trying to figure out how to make decent cuts for bolt holes and thought of this.

It's 1/2" EMT conduit. Then I took three 3/8" nuts and put them on a 4" bolt, staggered the high points, and hammered it into the conduit.
Cut the head off, chucked it up in the drill, and spun it on a file to give it a cutting edge. Then dribbled red lock tite all around the nuts in the spaces between them and the conduit.
First hole went perfect. .

You can get underneath in most spots and stick a hot poker up through, know it will be in exactly the right spot that way also.

 

[shady]

I'm going to poke up from the bottom, then use this over it. Make the hole bigger and keep the carpet out of the threads.

 

[JoshHefnerX]

That is a clean hole for sure.

 

[Fastereddie]

Top box I ordered finally came in.

My home brew tool works pretty good, but dulls quick. Resharpen about every 3rd hole and it's ok.
It'd be much nicer with a block of wood under it, but that's hard to do in the middle of the carpet lol.

That's exactly what I do, slip a block of wood under it. I use a piece of tube and a chamfer tool to sharpen it so the edge is on the outside. Then just smack the tube.
