What new tools have you got lately?

[PrairieDrifter]

Picked up used 18v sawzall(dinosaur I know lol)for $30. I also picked up a used snapon 1/2 inch drive mg725 for $50, they're like 800 new, and on a second gen I think. I don't use air very often, but my Dino 18 volts can't break everything I work on apart. Sometimes I don't feel like manual labor lol

I think that might be the impact I have. I don't know, it's had the rubber cover on it since new. But if it is, you'll definitely like it.

I'd be willing to bet it is. That's been the main 1/2 inch impact for at least a decade now. I've used this model a few times, I really liked it! It's super torquey. Sounds reeallll nice lol

Sounds about right. Iirc, it was the new model when I bought it in maybe '08 or so.

A little nostalgic today. Going through some old toolboxes that were my mom and dad's before they passed. An old drill that doesn't even reverse but still works and probably will forever plus an oil can spout. Can't use that.

Klein MM450 Multimeter, I've been meaning to buy one for quite a while and finally justified the purchase for testing my new fuel sending units before buttoning everything up...glad I did, one was faulty!

I'm wondering if anyone can identify this "tool thing" that the previous owner left behind the seat? It's a 20" long flexible metal band with a threaded plastic knob on one end and an unusual type hole at the other end. "TEM-032" is stamped on it. I'm stumped...

Love mine. Had mine about 10 years now doing all my own tires and some relatives here and there.

Yeah I bet I have done at least 50-60 mounts and dismounts over those 10 years. I finally broke down last year and bought one of those red lube tubs with the lube brush in it. I just fill it with soap and water when I use it.

DeWalt sells a battery adapter for the old tools. I bought one and use it with garage/estate sale finds. The investment has save me a bunch of money on tools.
