Starrett’s New Plastic Miter Saw Protractor

May 5, 2010 Stuart Discuss

It looks like Starrett recently released a new ProSite miter saw protractor, the 505P-7. The new 7″ protractor is made from plastic and includes the same angle-finding features and laser-engraved scales as the aluminum versions. Because it’s made from plastic, the 505P-7 is about half the price of Starrett’s aluminum miter saw protractors, at about […]

May 4, 2010 Stuart 5 Comments

I just checked the prices on Wera’s Zyklop ratchets, and they appear to be the lowest they’ve ever been! Over at ChadsToolbox, the 1/4″ Zyklop ratchet is $54, the 3/8″ ratchet is $60, and the 1/2″ is $$66. If you can find a Wera coupon code, that’ll drop the prices even further! Prices for these […]

Dewalt Magnetic ToughCase Review

May 3, 2010 Stuart 2 Comments

Dewalt’s new magnetic ToughCase is designed to be a highly portable storage case for larger drill bits, saw blades, and other bulky accessories that can be difficult to stow away. Right away, I must tell you that  I absolutely love Dewalt’s various tool and accessory storage cases. They’re tough, well-built, and usually have extremely secure […]

Need Advice!! What To Do About a Shill??

Apr 30, 2010 Stuart 15 Comments

Here’s the deal – the other day someone left a comment posing as a contractor and spoke great things about a company whose product the post was about. I remember seeing this same exact comment on another forum or blog a few weeks ago, so I did some googling. It appears that someone going by […]

Apr 28, 2010 Stuart 14 Comments

You may have noticed a drop in the number of posts here on ToolGuyd, and there’s a good reason for that. Aside from working on a few new reviews, I had been reading up on how to build a small CNC machine.

ZipWall ZipPole Quick & Easy Dust Barrier

Apr 27, 2010 Stuart 2 Comments

ZipWall’s flasgship dust barrier and lower cost steel ZipPole systems are used to put up plastic barriers to control and contain dust during indoor home improvement projects. These poles are extendable and spring-loaded to effortlessly hold plastic sheeting in place. As far as I can tell, the only difference between the two systems is that the lower […]

Ridgid Oscillating Edge Belt and Spindle Sander

Apr 23, 2010 Stuart 9 Comments

Ridgid’s oscillating edge belt and spindle sander (EB4424) is an example of a somewhat gimmicky design that is done right. This 2-in-1 sander can be used to sand both straight edges and curves, and features a 4″ x 24″ belt and set of five sanding drums.

Not Everyone is Cut Out to be a DIYer

Apr 22, 2010 Stuart 2 Comments

I don’t know what is going on in this photo, but clearly someone got a little too carried away with expanding foam insulation. This is NOT how you waterproof a bathtub! Well, not everyone is cut out for DIY home improvement. Spotted on There, I Fixed It, a website that aggregates kludges and disasters like […]

Huot Drill Bit Indexes

Apr 22, 2010 Stuart Discuss

Huot’s USA-made drill bit indexes are about the best that you could find. Good quality bit sets typically come with a case, sometimes a Huot one like this, but there are times when smaller bit sets must be consolidated or flimsy and broken cases replaced. Not only does a good case like these keep drill […]

Henry Vac Spotted in the Wild

Earlier this month I spotted a Henry vacuum at a hotel, which suggests that there may be an affordable distributor of these powerful little vacuums in the USA. If this turns out to be the case, hopefully they can be powered by our 110V outlets.
