    One of the most important things to learn in life is when to use corded tools and when to use cordless.

    Btdt. And then there was the time I sucked up 50' of cord into the electric snowblower. I am not sure whether my wife or I will be the one to slay the first extension cord with the electric chainsaw.

    I didn’t realize until this week that battery chainsaws were a thing.

    Only if I feel like it. On a side note, I have considered getting buckets to store the longer cords in.

    Right, I have better places to put buckets than I do to hang stuff due to layout. Plus the two big fucking heavy cords don't hang well. Looping into a bucket is also easier.

    Pretty sure the LesboStrap 3000 is cordless. PM Rontele for more details.

    I know it’s just a hammer, but from demo to finish the smooth face 14oz Stiletto does it all.

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

    If I didn’t use it for everything id get the 16oz for strictly framing. But have you tried one of the “modern” Ti hammers?

    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.

    My wife contributed a 20 oz hammer to our sum of the parts makes more than the whole. Thing is a beast. However it's got a waffle patterned face, which sucks if you miss and hit something nice. I use it for destruction projects rather than construction.

    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 construction and shock going through it because of it, beating you up, so I put it aside. Fucking thing looks like new still.

    Oh, I was paying attention to you and your corded electric chainsaw. Trying to show you how to avoid another needless cord death.
    Now you take a lap.

    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.
