Dewalt has finally launched their new lineup of cordless 12V Max lithium ion power tools. When I first previewed these new compact tools, it was love at first touch. We currently have the full range of tools in-hand for review, and will start off the series by discussing the tools’ common handle and battery design.
Porter Cable Quik Jig Pocket Hole System Now Available
Porter Cable’s new Quik Jig pocket hole system has recently hit stores. If you recall, the Quik Jig is a good looking pocket hole drilling jig that Porter Cable recently came out with. The Quik Jig has been praised in early reviews for its repeatability and ease of use. Given its $230 price tag, I hesitate […]

Dewalt just announced their new Impact Clutch (DWHJHLD) accessory holder that they say will help alleviate some of the frustrations encountered in heavy-duty impact driver applications. Common high-torque issues include bit tip breakage, fastener stripping and fastener breakage.
Husky Ratcheting Wrench User Review Temporarily Under Investigation

It has since come to light that this comment/review may have been FAKE. Until we get to the bottom of this, please consider the republished user review to be invalid. In the […]
Home Depot Husky Holiday Tool Gift Guide
This weekend I visited a few major tool and home improvement stores for a sneak peek of their winter holiday tool gift displays.

Husky Ratcheting Rotary Wrench Reader Review
UPDATE: It has come to light that “Jason” may be a shill for Home Depot, Husky or one of their agents. As such, please DISREGARD this post until our investigation is complete.

In case you missed it, we’re huge fans of Bosch jig saws. So of course we’re very eager to hear that Bosch is rolling out a new line of saws, starting with a new flagship model. It’s hard to get excited over specs and fancy marketing phrases, but Bosch has already proved that they know […]
Milwaukee Cordless Palm Nailer Performance Claims
We talked a bit about Milwaukee’s new M12 cordless palm nailer last month, but its performance expectations have just been made available. Milwaukee claims that the palm nailer can drive a 16D 3-1/2” nail in under 2 seconds, and up to 100 nails per battery charge. That sounds pretty darn impressive – let’s hope that it can […]

Milwaukee 18V Cordless Right Angle Drill
Last fall we reviewed Milwaukee’s M12 cordless right angle drill, and found it to be a darn decent tool. It performed well, provided enough torque for RA applications, and had great ergonomics. It looks like a new M18 18-volt version is due to be released soon, so we compared the specs for the two tools.

Milwaukee’s Cordless M12 Hammer Drill!
The above-pictured Milwaukee drill/driver looks similar to their first generation 3/8″ drill/driver, but there is a huge difference between the two tools. This one is a hammer drill. That’s right, Milwaukee managed to cram the necessary hammer/vibratory mechanisms into their compact M12 cordless form factor!
