i prefer milwaukee but nice tool i think craftsman was the first company to steal the idea for the laser line

 

Jamz a little too far to drive unless its for beer... and Im not 21 so I techinically cant drive for beer.

 

Install the upper cabinets first. Alot easier than working around the lowers

 

Do you mean Dewalt? Good tools but for the average weekend carpenter a little over priced. The others will last a weekend user just as long as Dewalt. (they all die with time as much use) But for daily Dewalt cordless batteries do last longer. For the rest of thier tools the housings are a little more rigid than others for daily abuse. But may not be enough to justify the cost for us weekenders that tend to take care a little more of what ever we have better.

 

The Royobi works great. Dewalt is way overpriced, I paid 187.00 for the royobi and that was a great price. I did build my own cabinets and they came out good. It was a challenge but with a **** load of Patience and time it was all good. I will post some pics of them soon. I also did almost my entire home with tongue and groove using varied designs with some red oak, knotty pine and some cedar outside as well using fish bone design and some vertical, and horizontal and boxed frame. I love the wood look.!!

 

Nice tool, I'm sure you'll be glad you bought it. Wish mine had a laser. 12" blades aren't cheap. I suggest you watch for sales on them, and buy an 80 tooth (or so) carbide just for fine, accurate cutting of mouldings.

Thank you everybody.

As far as the DeltaWalt or Dewalt, I was talking about DELTA tools. The others are great brands, but a lil out of my price range. I have a Table Saw, Miter Saw, Scroll Saw, and a Table Grinder.

Next, I am hoping to get a Jointer. My dad got a Grizzly Jointer for Christmas lasxt year, and thats a nice piece of machinery.

 

Man all this talk makes me miss working back at Home Depot. I perfer Makita tools myself, but they are hard to come by (other then special order). Second is Dewalt, and I would stay away from Ryobi, unless your a single housewife
