In case you had any worries about using a battery powered mower, the GreenWorks G-Max mowers have a high 4.3 stars out of 5 on Amazon with 137 reviews. Other than being green (literally and environmentally), the advantage of an electric mower is that it is so much quieter than a traditional gas powered mower. Because the G-Max mowers don't need to support heavy gas engines, the mower is made out of light-weight plastic.

But unlike most pin nailers, the new Senco FinishPro 21LXP uses nails that have a slight/medium head. Senco says it delivers the holding power of a brad nail with a much smaller hole. Offering a fastener range of 5/8-inch up to 2-inch, the FinishPro 21LXP can handle everything from miter joint pinning to full on trim installation. It uses a metal magazine that auto adjusts to accommodate the different faster lengths. The tool is lightweight... ]]> Tue, 22 Apr 2014 05:56:00 -0500 1623 2014-04-22 https://www.old.toolrank.com/media/listing/photos/original/a7/b7/c3/FinishPro-21LXP-41-1398146275.jpg https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/hot-deal-bosch-daredevil-6-piece-set-on-sale-for-10-201404211622/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/hot-deal-bosch-daredevil-6-piece-set-on-sale-for-10-201404211622/ Amazon has one of my favorite drill bit sets on sale for less than $10, the Bosch 6-piece DareDevil spade bit set. Bosch's DareDevil spade bits were one of my first reviews back in 2008, and guess what, I still like them. They were even given the prestigious Tool-Rank Pick award, which has only been given out 10 other times. You can head over to my review to see why I like them, but in short, they drill fast and make clean cuts through wood with little effort needed from the end-user. Because they are self-feeding they... ]]> Mon, 21 Apr 2014 19:22:00 -0500 1622 2014-04-21 https://www.old.toolrank.com/media/listing/photos/original/13/eb/2f/Bosch-DareDevil-6-piece-56-1398108188.jpg https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/bosch-5-0ah-battery-packs-coming-this-may-201404171621/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/bosch-5-0ah-battery-packs-coming-this-may-201404171621/ Isn't competition great? Cordless tools are stronger than ever with brands racing and competing to deliver the most powerful tools; and now we are in a heated race to see who can pack the most Ah into a battery. Well, it looks like Bosch is taking the lead with their new BAT621 5.0Ah 18-volt battery arriving this May. The best part of all is that the new battery packs are the same footprint and weight as Bosch’s previous 4.0Ah and 3.0Ah battery packs. They say this is possible thanks to “state-of-the-art high capacity low-resistance lithium-ion cells which... ]]> Thu, 17 Apr 2014 20:57:00 -0500 1621 2014-04-17 https://www.old.toolrank.com/media/listing/photos/original/91/ec/4d/Bosch-50Ah-BAT621-38-1397768257.jpg https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/klein-tools-expands-its-insulated-tool-line-201404171620/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/klein-tools-expands-its-insulated-tool-line-201404171620/ Klein Tools is expanding their insulated hand tools line with new electrician’s tools with “slimmer, sleeker profiles”, which have been certified by VDE in Germany. These “made in the USA” tools feature a three-part insulation and have been tested to 10,000V and rated at 1,000V. The new grips utilize a three part injection-molded insulation that not only better protects the tool, but also acts as a color warning system in case the insulation gets cut or warn through. Thumb guards aid in handling and prevent you from grabbing into the metal portion of the tool.

This is obviously a commercial for Cat, but that doesn't make it any less fun to watch. Of course, the best part of Jenga is buildup of adrenalin and anxiety of not knowing when the wooden tower might topple over. I wonder if those feelings increase as the size of the blocks increases? Since most of us don't have access to excavators and 600-pound Jenga blocks, the... ]]> Wed, 16 Apr 2014 19:59:00 -0500 1619 2014-04-16 https://www.old.toolrank.com/media/listing/videos/original/e6/38/c5/DWc8dUl7Xfo-v1397678373.jpg https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/hot-deal-proslat-slatwall-organizer-with-10-piece-hook-kit-201404141618/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/hot-deal-proslat-slatwall-organizer-with-10-piece-hook-kit-201404141618/ Woot.com has a hot deal on a Proslat slatwall and 10-piece hook organization kit. The list price for this particular kit is $191.00, but it is on sale at Woot for only $124.99. For comparison, the slatwall alone sells for $160+ on Amazon, and you would still need to buy hooks for it. The Proslat kit being offered on Woot comes with 32-square feet (4'x8') of their patented PVC slat wall and a 10-piece hook kit capable of holding hands tools, garden tools, or even a bike.

It is a rubber grip that slips onto your existing tape measure and gives it more hooking power. The tape measure is one of the most invaluable tools on a jobsite, but sometimes it can be a pain in the butt to try and measure the lengths of jobsite materials when your hook is not cooperating.

The name likely comes from the fact that gearless ratchets are touted as having zero backlash. Some users of the Garage Journal forum have confirmed that the ratchet is indeed for sale, though your Snap-On driver might not have many in stock. The retail price of about $180 might also throw you for a loop. The other benefit of gearless ratchets is no gears to break, so for some heavy users the price... ]]> Mon, 07 Apr 2014 08:03:00 -0500 1615 2014-04-07 https://www.old.toolrank.com/media/listing/photos/original/cd/dd/94/Snap-on-fzero-23-1396857827.jpg
