Is there any practical reason for building a riding mower that can travel at 130MPH? Probably not, but that didn't stop Honda from teaming up with their British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) partner, Team Dynamics, to do it anyway. And as unpractical as it is, it can still cut grass.
Blaklader makes some pretty awesome pants, but all that awesomeness comes at a price that is a little higher than your average work pant. But like I said, these pants are above average, and once you try them for yourself, you will probably agree.
So how do you make awesome pants even more awesome? Put them on sale.

These pants normally cost just under $60, so a $25 savings is a pretty big deal. Even with the added cost of shipping, you end up saving $10-$15 over buying them locally. This hot deal ends tomorrow, so you better act now.

When the utensils at the kitchen supply warehouse just didn't cut it, some Chefs turned to power tools to get the job done right. Everything from cordless drills with hole-saws, to putty knives can be used. And since you have the tools in the kitchen, why not have a Craftsman drawer toolbox to store them all in?
All to often I see news reports about tools that are stolen from a jobsite. These tools are required for a person in construction to do his or her job, and a loss of tools can be very damaging. Below I have put together a list of tips – some obvious, some not – on how you can prevent tool theft and how you can recover stolen tools.
A few weeks ago I posted on Facebook about my super simple method for growing hydroponic tomatoes with no electricity; and though this is not tool related, enough people seemed interested about it that I figured I would write up a full article explaining my Kratky hydroponics setup.
We have seen a couple of combination miter/table saws now enjoying freedom in the U.K., one from Bosch with a table mounted on top of a miter saw, and one from Makita that flips to transform. Now it is DeWalt's turn to join in on the fun with their very own flipping combination transformation miter/table saw.
There has been a lot of buzz about Track Saws with both DeWalt, and Makita finally coming out with versions for the USA.

After all, why should you have to buy another circular saw if you already own one, especially if it's a saw you really like? Who needs Festool when you can make a track saw with your own circular...
