Power tools... Which brand??

If you have them out there, check tool places that carry second hand, be mindful and haggle a price for good quality, you can get good shat. I picked up a Ridged pipe threader with all the right sizes 1"-1/4" for $80 and the cutter bits are excellent.
A bit worried about buying used with regards to batteries being fookt!
on budget i might have choice though!
 
Yeah I know comes with the territory but so do the better wages:thumb:
Going to have one decent corded and need at least one battery gun, impact screw likely, xrip saw and or sawzall,
Going to visit my bro and plunder his van tonight!:thumb:

Plenty of extra batteries. I always have atleast 3. And when I need them I need them for sure. I always keep a corded ryobi drill on hand though as it's always needed when I have a lot of tile drill I got to do.
 
that was nice of the ol' dog scrotum.
My cordless hammerdrill has made my life easier for sure. Glad you got some gear together and good luck getting some extra funds aaved maybe you will wind up with a proper two wheeler next season!
 
Seasons don't matter here buddy, it's either cold and muddy or just muddy!
I always got a new engined toy at Chrimbo kart bike or trike so usually icy ruts and snow banks for 4 months then mud with a sprinkling of sun then ice again!
In this terrain my Montessa Cota :rocker: when I was 10 :thumb:
Zip kart with Honda engine on slicks for summer ATC 70 from 4yo and many more variants since for winter:ride:
On the release of the ATC in Scotland my eldest sister and Dad rode an Atc110 and 185 or 200 up Ben Lomond as Part of a P.R. Day for Devines Honda Glasgow! They bogged down an Argo 8 wheeler and pulled it out with the trikes just to prove they could, fukn loved my trikes as a kid!
Had to pull an Atc70 out of my bros garage to get my clamps:thumb:

I have a lot of ryobi. their corded tools are decent. the batts on the 18volt line dont hold up very well considering their replacement cost. their sawzall has the worst ergs for my hands (medium size to large) with respect to getting the safety off. i glue them.

I bought some Dewalt 20v in sawzall, drill, and 1/4 impact. love them, the impact has lost TWO switches and they were new in november. no other problems.

Milwaukee has great plug ins. I have a half inch very compact drill that will give you a ride, and with a socket attachment I can start my old xr500 with it on the stand. Their battery driven grease gun is way better than a lincoln or less.
 
Dewalt local has a upgrade special right now, trade in your 18 volt for a 20 and get 50% off. Or repair cost for a drill here is $69 max. You might want to look at a upgrade or repair on those old guns.
 
Unfortunately the dewalt guns are pretty well caned so going to need a replacement set so hit eBay and came up with this from the U.S., worth a buy or not worth the hassle???

At this point I would think you are ready to just go new. You can buy that same kit new with 20v batteries plus others for about $400. Same goes for makita stuff.
