Dude, we are all shopped out. How are you still going? 😉
Stuart
Historically, “we are all shopped out” isn’t true until mid-December. =)
November is a wind-up month, December is a wind-down.
Look at the post archives to see what I mean:

Ok, ok. *I* am all shopped out. 😉
I blitz my shopping like a mad man and then sit back while others fight over the scraps.
Stuart
Is that a challenge for me to find a deal or gift idea cannot resist? (mwahaha)
MFC
No! No! Stop it you monster!

Anyone a big fan of any certain heater 120V 15A? I need to heat my garage but only for times when I’m in there wrenching on a car. Need either 120V or would a propane element that sits atop the tank be better? Next year I’ll wire-in 220V when I build-out the shop but not this Winter. Thanks.
Tom D
I don’t know how well it’d do for a whole garage but I like the oil heater I got from walmart for $cheap. It takes awhile to heat up but once it does it stays warm for a long time unlike others that go cold the moment they turn off.

I use a Mr Heater with a 20lb propane tank. It’s the most efficient and easiest way to do it. 1 tank usually lasts me the winter.
Rich R
Wow! Great to hear. I thought I might be going through many tanks. I already have a tank so will do both, the oil and propane, for kicks. I can use the oil one in the house as well.
Thank you
Rich R
Tom D, thank you. I will do just that!

Hey, Stuart. I know it’s last minute but I’m looking into getting a cordless circular saw. I’m between two kits at ToolNut: Makita (more batteries) and Milwaukee (I have other Milwaukee cordless tools). Would love to know your thoughts on these deals.
Two Makita bundles that each come out to $250 for 1 circular saw, 1 charger, and 4 batteries total:

Milwaukee circular saw and hammer drill kit with 2 batteries, charger, and bag

All things the same I’d stick with the same brand -batteries wear out so it’s good to have more.
Unless you’ve been looking at starting a Makita collection.
Stuart
They’re both great deals.
I’d go with the Makita 18V X2 circular saw – over the rear-handle saw.
If you’re shopping for the rear-handle saw, it’s because you KNOW you need its performance and cutting capabilities. The other circular saw is going to a little lighter and presumably more nimble.
The Milwaukee deal is a brushless hammer drill and brushless circular saw combo kit, but these also aren’t Milwaukee’s premium M18 Fuel tools.
The Milwaukee saw will be lighter, but the Makita should presumably deliver faster cutting performance.
Of these two deals, I’d go with the Makita. It’s also the better bargain right now.
fred
Perhaps one other consideration is that the rear-handle saw has a base that works with Makita tracks. It doesn’t turn it into a plunge-cutting track saw – but does seem like an added feature.
For general use, however, I think Stuart’s recommendation is sound about sticking with the sidewinder
