“Many-in-One” Tools are [Unfortunately] the Way of the Future

Dec 9, 2010 Stuart 13 Comments

I read a frustrating article the other day, In Smartphone Era, Point and Shoots Stay Home, (also via Yahoo), which discusses how people are abondoning their point and shoot (P&S) cameras and using their iPhones, Androids & Blacberry smartphones’ built-in cameras. In a similar way, many DIYers are going gaga over all these “many-in-one” tools […]

Sog PowerLock Multi-Tools

Dec 8, 2010 Stuart 2 Comments

I’ve added a new multi-tool to my daily carry rotation – a Sog PowerLock EOD. It’s quite different in design than the Leatherman Wave I typically carry, so it should be interesting to see how the Sog fares in comparison. Most notably, the tool is somewhat larger than anticipated, and its included leather sheath is enormous! […]

Bosch’s New Heavy Duty 18V Impact Wrenches

Dec 6, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

Bosch recently announced a new line of heavy-duty 18V impact wrenches. These new tools can provide a heck of a punch – 500 ft. lb. of max torque, and are [relatively] lightweight at 6.7lbs with a 10″ head length. Taking a quick look at a few of the other high-torque 18V impact wrenches on the market, […]

Husqvarna is coming out with two new chainsaws, the 555 and 562 XP. On the outside, both saws have slimmed down designs for improved handling. On the inside, key moving parts have been reduced in weight to reduce the gyration of the saws.

Five Steps to Efficient Tool Storage & Organization

Dec 1, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

Right now my work area is in a state of extreme disarray, but I tend to be very particular about how I organize and store my tools. A tool that I cannot find is a tool I may as well not even own. To help get myself reorganized, I’ve come up with a logical 5-step […]
