Not too long ago we saw what happens when a gun and tool enthusiast combines both of his passions; what he came up with was a Glock that was modded to look like a DeWalt 12V Max Drill. This time around we have the flip side to the coin.
Kreg has come out with a new layout tool that just might be good enough to replace your combination square for good. Why? Everything I use my combination square for the Kreg Multi-Mark can do, but it can also do so much more.
You might have noticed that Tool-Rank has teamed up with Coast Portland to giveaway one of their LED Lanterns. Coast also makes LED flashlights (one of which I reviewed here) and they also make knives and multi-tools. What makes up a good LED flashlight is more than just build quality and lumens, and in this LED Flashlight Infographic Coast explains how important the optics are to a flshlight.
Ever wonder how to collect the dust that you make from your drill press? ToolBoxBuzz reviews a flexible dust collector kit that attaches to your collector and drill press and allows you to position the nozzle right where you need it.
Dremel has come out with a couple of new oscillating tool accessories that really expand the versatility of oscillating tools and should give you even more chances to use the Multi-Max on your projects. Both new accessories move away from the standard push blade model and instead cut when you pull the tool.
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.
I have always looked at the Festool MFT (Multi-Function Table) as great little work table, but not practical for jobsite use. I just never liked the idea of having to carry it around on the jobsite along with all of my other tools. But Timothy Wilmots' modified MFTC (Multi-Function Tool Cart) looks like an ideal way to transport both the MFT and your tools.
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.
Do you need a trailer that you can just pull up to the job site and get right to work without having to unload all your tools. The problem with most trailers is the limited access to your tools. If you need something in the back, you have to unload everything in front of it.
