New Tool Day

[NashvilleTJ]

Picked up this little 12” battery chain saw from Home-Po this morning. Had a few big limbs come down in a storm the other night, and this thing did the job.

So, so much easier than dragging out my big saw to handle little jobs like this one. No draining the fuel and running it dry when done. Wipe it off and put it away.

Can’t beat it for $199.

Be honest with us...you bought this because it matches your Jeep.

Knowing I have Dewalt tools in my Box...............

Ouch.

So...

Go buy the one on sale, then return it with the higher priced receipt.

Acme stores are only in Mn, Ia and ND. Take off the price of shipping, the time waiting for it to be shipped and it’s not that much of a savings. He has it now and has used it.
Acme stores are like a candy store to a kid. I bought my Kubota L6060 from the Acme Kubota dealership in Grand Forks and got a hell of a deal on it. $15K less than my dealer here in Ca quoted me. Plus I was able to put it all on my CC and got 2 roundtrip flights.

I don’t think Jeff is worried about the $30. That’s like 10 minutes of Hemi’ing down the road on stickies.

I have the M18 version of this and love it. Pretty neat tool that is very accessible.

 

[voodooridr]

The 12 worked well cutting the old exhaust pipe
The 18 must be a beast

It is, I bought it in 2022 after buying my Rubicon. It was on sale and I needed it to cut out the rusted in Lower control arm bolts. with a good diablo blade it ripped through those in about 30 seconds.

2x 20v 5AH batteries

12v right angle die grinder

Plus charger, some new impact sockets, some new drill bits, some grinder discs, and some bigger welding magnets.

Used my 1/2 compact 20v impact to remove the lug nuts off the Kubota tractor. We have never had them off in the 15 years we've owned the tractor.

Zipped them off no problem, I did use the DeWalt 20v max xr Impact to put them back on, because I know the #1 setting will torque to 100ft pounds.

I tried not to buy anything, except a grinder, that my father-in-law (and neighbor) already has in Milwaukee for now. He has the full size 1/2" impact so I figured this would be a good addition for now. It says up to 275 ft-lb. And it's easier to throw in the Jeep.
