This maul looks a lot like an axe to me.

We have that same one. it would be a lot better if I could somehow teach my wife how you clean the accumulated coffee out of the grinding chute thingie or I could remember to clean it out at night...

For 750' of driveway you need something with an engine I'd say. Well either that or a pack of French-Canadians.

Those look pretty cool, I never heard of them before.

oh I hate gas for my uses. And just would like to simplify shit

Well I don't know it for a fact but the idea is the batteries are usable in all their shit so I would say probably yes.

Yeah but most of the shit is old and kinda shitty, I'm okay with replacing it once, I just don't want to have to replace it again after that.

I'm thinking about taking a deep dive on Stihl cordless shit for yard maintenance, changing everything over to that. Right now I have a combination of effective but fairly shitty stuff that seemed...

He says this one:...

Holy shit I've gone down a rathole of Boltr videos on youtube the last few days, I'd say whatever he uses is the one you should get.

dagnabbit, I just fixed that!

I think cordless chainsaws are awesome mainly because I only have about a half-hour of hard work at a time in me at most.

Well it's for framing. Don't use it for shit you care about how it looks. I've had a 28-oz estwing for like 30 years, I used to love that thing but all the old guys hated on it for the steel...

I get it but the opposite equation works too, and all the old framers I've known, and it's been a few, swing weight.

I actually love framing hammers, but 14 oz? Not positive I'd even call it a framing hammer. Not hating just saying.

Cordless.

No clue what that thing does.

or maybe he just needed to clamp the living fuck out of something.

Like this?

I can definitely see the advantage of yours for confined spaces. Mine works like a champ otherwise though, maybe too good - one time I was hanging insulation in an addition we were working on when...

I don't see how that stapler could be much better than one of these:

Cheap, efficient, fits on a toolbelt

You gotta be leaves I always say.

Those battery chargers^^^ and OBD2 scanners are must-haves, btw. Cheap as shit and can save you big money, buy those. You need those.

Yeah it works, it's cheap, I dunno I don't mind it. Battery lasts quite a long time. I'm not saying it's amazing but it's pretty good.

Gas in an infrequently-used tool just sucks, anything is...

That knife looks cool, I've been buying these Hultafors knifes, they're onlly $13.00 with a sheath and sharp as a bitch but they do rust like crazy.
...

Commonlaw thinks he's on it but you crush that punk.

Dude I pay attention but you are the king of the cross-reference. For sure. Keep it up.

I need one of those. Who makes it?

Harbor Freight is just ridiculous for seldom-used tools. I hate to buy from them but it's hard not to sometimes. Pallet jack that I may never use again? Harbor Freight.

Oh just wreck something random. You're in Ohio, no one will notice.

I have this steel wrecking bar, I don't even know where it came from, I didn't buy it. I guess one of the guys left it behind when they were building the house. I love it and will have it the rest of...

No doubt. I'll count my blessings.

I have some weird blood sugar issue that's completely fine as long as I eat enough protein and stay away from excess sweets and all you can eat in the prep is...

Every time I hear the word "colonoscopy" I have a serious sinking feeling and think, fuck, the next one's one day closer. Fuck. The procedure's nothing, but the prep is just the worst. Fuck.

You're doing yourself a disservice. You know your'e about my favorite person on the planet. But you're wrong on this one.

Plus, I already said Leatherman

Yeah I didn't feel a need to attribute it, everyone should know that joke.

I think it's a Steven Wright line originally.

Chat. And tags. Two simple things. Why can't we have them?

I think I was the Estwing guy back in the day but I'm off their hammers these days. I do however love my little Estwing "Camper's Ax"...

Actually there was. She's painting my house right now.

I have a maybe 25-year-old leatherman that I use all the time, it's a kinda medium one, doesn't have the coffee grinder or the pneumatic drill but does have quite a variety of useful shit.

A real answer! Nice. Amazon has them: https://smile.amazon.com/Knipex-002006S1-3-Piece-10-Inch-12-Inch/dp/B000X4KNTG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1494041675&sr=8-1&keywords=Knipex+Cobra+pliers

Why do...

Honestly the only use I have for a pen is crosswords, but that's big in my world, so rock on.

explain.

@the angry Canadian: hm. I don't think so?

I mean, I own tools on the internet for a living, but this was supposed to be about actual tools that you use to accomplish an actual task.

Or not....

I have a bunch of tools. This Fiskars long pole cutter is pretty good though. It has an 8-foot pole on it, cuts anything up to about an inch like butter. Noticed the driveway looked like Vietnam this...
