Today's deal is an Irwin Quick-Grip 10 piece clamp set for only $29.99. Thats about 10 bucks off the regular price. Be sure to check back everyday to stay up to date on all the tool deals.

Dura-GRIT - Tungsten Carbide cutting for your Dremel

by Chris     October 20, 2008    

Dura-GRIT is one of those "ahhh" tools. Why,  because when I first saw the video of them in action, I said "ahhh"  They are basically tungsten carbide versions of standard rotary cutting and sanding wheels. The video shows you everything, so be sure to take a look.

They are a little expensive at between $10-$15 each, but if they really do everything the video shows, they are probably worth it. If anyone has used these, be sure to leave a review; I am interested to see what they can do. Another interesting product they sell is a carbide sanding disk for your random orbital sander. Maybe with the release of the new oscillating tools from Dremel and Bosch, Dura-GRIT will make some attachments for them. There is always hope.

You can purchase Dura-GRIT products directly from their website.

Good News and Bad News

by Chris     October 18, 2008    

Lets me start with the good news. When I bought the Bosch PS40-2 Impactor set for the Giveaway , Bosch had a promotion to get a free PS20 Drill via mail in rebate. I always  get a little nervous when it comes to rebates, because if you don't follow the requirements to the letter, then they can reject you. I received a letter the other day from Bosch saying that they had an overwhelming response from the promotion, and will be shipping the PS20 by November 1st. So the good news is the PS20 is coming, and as long as it arrives before the contest ends, I am happy.

Now for the bad news. I had plans to start adding some videos to my reviews. Not  full on video reviews, but more like an extra bit of visuial information. Something more then a photo could give you. Too bad I pluged my video camera into the wrong DC power supply and burned the thing up. :( Always check your voltages. The camera was probably 8 years old, so it wasnt a huge loss, but now I need to buy another one.
