Milwaukee Free 11-N-1 Screwdriver with any Tape or Knife Purchase
We have been very impressed by the new Milwaukee Fastbacks and Heavy Duty Tape Measures however it is also understandable when a new product is launched there might be some reluctance to trash your old tools to trade up. Ohio Power Tool has hopefully come up with a pretty nice program to help you make the switch. They are providing …
Read MoreIngersoll Rand IQv20 Cordless Grease Gun LUB5130
The Ingersoll Rand IQv line of tools just recently expanded greatly with the IQv12 Series launch at SEMA so we were not expecting to see anything else for some time. News of the IQv20 Grease Gun LUB5130-K1 ($349) came as a very nice surprise and a very logical next step for the IR 20 volt platform. For those on the …

We had an opportunity to see all the new Milwaukee Fastback Knives at the media event earlier this summer which was really a delightful surprise to us.

At the recent Milwaukee press event we had the opportunity to test out this compact 5/8” M18 SDS-Plus Rotary 2612-21 ($299, Ohio Power Tool) hammer drill. The purpose of this tool is designed specifically for those folks who do a lot of overhead drill with small diameter holes and don’t need to added cost and weight of the full size …
Read MoreReturn of the Milwaukee Tool Magnetic Tape Measure
Some years ago Milwaukee Tool sold tape measures and they were awesome! The tip had a magnetic end, the units were rugged but still compact and the people loved them. Of course Milwaukee probably didn’t make them themselves as they were not into hand tools or measuring at the time. So for whatever reason those wonderful tape measures were discontinued …
Read MoreLED Floodlights Making their way onto the Jobsites
About 18 months ago we reviewed the 180 LED Voltec LED Floodlight 08-00703 which was a great concept but put out a somewhat wimpy 450 lumens and sold for around $80. In comparison to the Voltec 500W Halogen Worklight 08-00609 ($12) it was pretty wimpy but it began to address the need for a safer, more impact resistant, less hassle, …
