Hey Guys,
It's 4th of July week in the US and it happens to fall on a Saturday this year so that means a lot of us have Friday off. Short weeks make for busy weeks so I won't take up too much of your time.
This month we have a new head to head article on the best cordless lawnmower. This was a huge test with 14 different mowers evaluated. Click the image above or scroll down to the blurb below. Additionally we have a couple useful shop How-To articles and some new tool reviews that include the new Milwaukee cordless framing
nailer and Makita X2 string trimmer.
Here's a throwback How-To of a pipe clamp rack I built about 5 years ago. The best part is that it's still in use today with 20+ clamps ranging from 30-60". It's as strong as it is compact. The cherry on top is that it only costs about $6 to build. Check out the build at the link below.
When installing trim, often times I need an angle cut that's greater than my miter saw's capabilities. In this How-To article, Rob shows how he handles this situation with a simple jig that anyone can build. Hit up the link below and build your own.
Have you made the switch to a cordless mower yet? Are you thinking about it? This article should answer all your questions and settle the question of who has the best cordless lawn mower. For all the details and results, hit the link below.
Man, it's about time. The Milwaukee cordless framing nailer (both 21 and 30 degree versions) are finally out on the market. We first saw this at NPS19 and it was impressive then but it's more impressive now that we've had time to use it on the job site. Rob has been
using it on his sites, how did he like it? All the details are at the link below.
It's almost getting to the point where if I hear a gas trimmer in my neighborhood, it seems out of place. More and more homeowners and pros are using cordless trimmers. Makita's newest offering, the XRU15, uses 2 of their 18V LXT batteries for up to an amazing 1.5 hrs of runtime. So what else is amazing about this pro level trimmer?
