Milwaukee is a good investment for sure, I just added the M18 weed eater and blower to my collection of Milwaukee.. Best thing since sliced bread ! All those years of buying gas and cussing when it would not start =)

I agree! I cant believe how I went so long before discovering the M18 Fuel line. They have so many different tools to do the job.

I believe the next things I'm going to pick up are the bore scope and large Underhood light.

Finally bit the Bullet and bought the big harbor freight tool cart for all of my Milwaukee tools and boxed specialty tool sets. I need to buy another cart for all of my 12v wiring stuff and diagnosis tools.

I got tired of having all my Milwaukee stuff sitting ontop of my other boxes. I've got two 46" chests full as well.

It's very nice to have all your stuff together like that.
I bought 2 roll around carts for each of our CNC machines. Everything needed for one job can be organized on top and bottom shelf. Tools, spare inserts, collets, and inventory list for each tool needed for the job.
It makes it dummy proof almost.

Even mounted USB ports on them for charging phones.

Now to organize the infinite amount of end mills and drill bits on the table :(

Speaking of tools. Did anyone see the deal Sears is running right now? Spend $125 and instantly get $125 back in rewards.

Basically get $250 worth of tools for $125.

Installed this a few months ago.
Already rebuilt
two Dana 50s
one Dana 60.
These were full rebuilds new gears, hubs, ball joints, seals, rotors, brakes and locking hubs.
Dealer wanted about $4000 per axle on each truck. No thanks.

Two struts and two tie rod ends on wife’s QX56
One set of headers/cat cons on the same QX56
Six oil changes
One trans fluid service
Eight axle gear oil changes
four tire rotations
One set of brake rotors and pads n my commuter car.

Out of all the tools i bought in the past 30 years this by far beats them all. Had to get the air jacks to go with it otherwise it would be pretty worthless. 14,000 pounds lift two 8,000 pounds air jacks

Got a set of Gear Wrench Metric ratcheting wrenches with the swivel end; on sale at Advanced for 30% off, so I got em for $35.
Pulled the trigger on a Milwaukee 1/2 inch impact last weekend; it's the 600ft/lb version M18. I got the impact, two batteries, and the charger for $279 after some haggling and an issue with the original purchase. I was just going to get the bare tool at first but after being double charged by accident I got the whole kit n caboodle from the Flea Market

He had a set of new Snap-On 1/2 inch deep well impact sockets for $175, I might go back next paycheck to see if he's still got them.
There was also a bunch of Napa/Carlyle, OEM, and Gear Wrench brand tools at his stand so I'll probably wind up spending a bit next time I'm out there.

Did you have to pull the auger off to put the bar feeder on?

Save that $175 if you aint wrenching for a living. Theyre worth every penny. Congrats on the milwaukee, i kinda wish ida went that route instead of dewlt.

nevermind i didnt realize those were 2 different machines lol
