Let us pretend that you have just survived a natural disaster but you can no longer use your house the way you used it just a few days before. The power is out, you have no running water, and you have no heating. This sounds a lot like what has happened, and is still happening, on the East Coast. For these reasons and more, it is a good idea to have a small tool kit that you can use to help you survive until you can rebuild.

12-volt tools are quickly becoming just as powerful as the 18v tools of just a couple of years ago and might soon eliminate the need for the extra voltage. Just as 12v tools are replacing the need for 18v tools, it looks like Milwaukee could be set on making 4v tools the new compact king, and their new M4 screwdriver is just the start.

It is never too early to start shopping for Christmas or to at least start planning for your Christmas shopping. To help you plan your shopping Lowe’s has pre-announced a few of their Black Friday deals, and if you are ready to start shopping now, Lowe’s has a number of tools already marked down. Some of these are really good deals that are much lower than what Amazon is selling them at, including the tools that are on sale right now.

Back when Makita first announced their 36V rotary hammer 3 years ago I wondered why they just didn't make the tool run on two 18v batteries. I am sure they had their reasons, and maybe they expected to have more 36v tools out by now, but the 18v line is super popular and it just makes sense to have a tool that runs on the most popular battery.

Milwaukee first made their new brushless M12 Fuel line of drills and impacts known during their press event way back in June. They then gave us the clue about the winter release date back in August. Now, with winter just around the corner, they have released the specs, and they have us wondering if you really need 18v tools anymore.

It looks like Bosch is one of the first tool companies to start gearing up for the Christmas shopping season by offering some nice discounts on tools. Now through December 25, 2012 Bosch has a number of 18-volt & 12-volt cordless combo kits marked down by $50. Not only is this a great way to save on some tools for yourself or a loved one, but by shopping at Amazon you are also supporting ToolRank. Win, win. Note: The $50 discount will be applied at checkout and is clearly labeled. BUY Bosch $50 Off Tools...

Gorilla Glue Co. makes a few products that I really like and one of those products is the Original Gorilla Polyurethane Glue. But you can't use their glue if you don't have any with you, and who knows when you might need to repair something on the go. To help solve this, Gorilla Glue is introducing Gorilla Glue Single Use packs.

We all need to eat, so having enough food on hand incase of a natural disaster is key. The East Coast is currently being hit by hurricane Sandy and the days leading up to the storm led to crowded stores full of the unprepared looking to stock up on food. Building a disaster kit ahead of time could have saved these people a lot of stress.

Tired of having to fumble around with, and keep track of loose driver bits? Worx took the technology of two handgun types and came up with a way to make changing bits hassle free. It looks pretty cool too.
