amazing tool

[Snitty]

i just bought me a dewalt 120v impact wrench... this thing is slicker than snot... i have no idea what the torque capabilities are... nowhere on the box or manual does it say... but i started removing my plow hardware today... i would never have been able to remove half of these bolts if it weren't for this gun... i'm impressed... $179 well spent, even though i had NO intention on spending that until i saw it.... that money was supposed to go for tires... but you know how it goes with a man in a hardware store

dewalt 120v impact wrench

we have one at work, that i use everyonce and a while.. its pretty cool... i believe it is rated at a max of 240ft/lbs which isnt too shabby for what it is.

i have the i wants for a 18volt cordless milwaukee cordless impact, but they are expensive

gotta love powertools

i would have loved to go cordless... a friend has a 24v cordless dewalt impact... that is amazing... 240lbft of torque is more than i'll need for anything... if it can take off the bolts for my plow... it can take off anything else i'll need it too... i think

That's funny, cause I broke my Gerber on a bolt that my Leatherman finished. I guess it all depends. Besides, the bottle opener on the Gerber doesn't work for crap.

THis is what we splicers carry:

Hey... now I could use a set up like that.

well i have no reason to open a bottle with my gerber.. all the bottles i drink from are plastic... and that remgrit blade can cut anything

Opening Telco Cable sheaths, although I dont use those for that, I use a "kutto" knife. The knife in the pic is what I use to sharpen pencils :lol:

What's a kutto knife?

What's a kutto knife?

It is an old style utility knife. The wheel on the side locks the blade. The new sytle knives with the slider on top will slip and are pretty dangerous when opening a sheath, which has some razor sharp metal in it.

http://themodernspecialtiescompany.com This is the only place I know where a knife like this can still be bought.

there is a new style "pocket knife" out... it is a folding lockback utility knife
