I'm getting a cordless impact driver for myself tomorrow. The big orange box has good deals on a Dewalt combo (DCK236C for $149). But I also noticed they have special pricing on Milwaukee with the dr

Not strictly applicable, but I was considerably less than happy with the only Milwaukee I ever bought. It was a professional grade, corded 1/2" drill, over $200 in 1985 or so (including the angle dr

I'm a big fan of DeWalt.. Have two 12V drills and a 10" miter saw. I've had the first drill since sometime in the mid 1990s, and it's survived a fall from atop a 12 foot ladder and will punch a 1" sp

I want to chime in here with my $0.02. I love my Dewalt 18v kit. I've added to it over the years and it is still going strong. I'm pretty tough on tools. I did have to replace some batteries, but the

Lots of people fixate on the "memory effect" and try to run their battery packs all the way down. This is the worst possible usage for a NiCd battery pack! It is far better to recharge the pack soon

I don't know what Scott has, he didn't say. But I believe the DeWalt that Brian was asking about is NiCd, and a quick Google turned up lots of other brands that still offer NiCd. Milwaukee certainly

OK, before you all throw away your tools, I have an idea... First, I got rid of all my corded tools when I first used cordless stuff. They do rock. Then, I think I saw a brand that had this idea, but
