Written by Chris Rodenius.

I got a copy of the 2018 ACME Tools Black Friday Ad Scan (see below), and they are offering a great selection of deals from many different brands. Many of the deals have already started, but some won't start until tomorrow. Be sure to check the dates in the Ad.

They are offering brand deals like 15% off Jet tools and 10% off Powermatic tools, they also have some specific deals on popular cordless combo kits from the major brands, including DeWalt, Makita, and Milwaukee. 

Like last year, they have instant rebates on Honda generators of $50 or $100 off select models.

Also, note that some of the deals run past Cyber Monday and into December, and there are other Manufacturer-specific deals in addition to these deals, like Makita's $25 off $100 deal and $30 off $149 from Bosch

To see all of the ACME Tools Black Friday and Cyber Monday Deals, check out the Ad scan below. You can click on the products to be taken directly to that page on the ACME Tool website.

Save up to $10 on the Bernzomatic TS8000KC Torch kit this Holiday season

Written by Chris Rodenius.

Starting today and running until November 29, you can save up to $10 on the Bernzomatic TS8000KC Kit, which includes both the torch and a MAP-Pro Cylinder. The TS8000 is an upgrade to the much-loved TS4000. It shares all the great features of the TS4000, like an auto-ignition start/stop trigger and run-lock button. New features include a larger Ultra swirl flame output that is suitable for even bigger projects and a dial-control knob that can lower the flame so it's not much bigger than a bbq lighter.

Additionally, you can save up to $6.59 on a 2-pack of MAP-Pro Cylinders.

But I bet many people don't know that you can turn just about any circular saw into a track saw for a fraction of the cost of a complete track saw package all with a kit from EurekaZone. 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...

Quick Tip: Homemade Pegboard Screwdriver Holder

In an effort to better organize my home workspace I decided that I needed to get some of my non-work tools out of boxes/bags and into places where I could more easily access the ones I use most. My solution was simple, and probably the same solution that many of you use, pegboard.
