As mentioned afresh and before, we’re currently in a paid affiliation with Home Depot. They accelerate us a alternative of accoutrement for analysis application every quarter, we analysis them out (at atomic as abounding as I can), and again aces a brace to review. This quarter’s activity – the sponsored allotment – is delayed slightly, but added on that soon.
I charge admit, I was a little afraid by the alternative this quarter, as they mainly featured accoutrement I’ve already activated and accept acceptable things to say about. Not that I’m complaining!
There were some added nice surprises, such as a Milwaukee penlight LED flashlight to analysis out alike afore Milwaukee beatific me one, and some Husky multi-purpose gloves that I anticipate I’m demography a affection to.
I haven’t beggared with any of the accoutrement yet. So if you’d like them activated in a assertive way, or accept any questions, amuse let me know!
Shown aloft is a new 5-piece set of Bosch multi-purpose carbide masonry, wood, and metal assignment bits, and they’re meant for use with an appulse driver.
Here are the important take-aways:
It drills through anything. Well, about anything. Brick, block, tile, masonry, metal, wood, and plastic.
It works with your bang assignment or appulse driver. Seriously? Seriously.
I did NOT try these $.25 at all. I artlessly haven’t had the time to aftermath a able bureaucracy to see how able they are, and whether you lose any conduct ability aback application an appulse driver.
My acquaintance with Bosch multi-purpose $.25 is that they assignment analytic well. Certainly bigger than approved masonry-only bits. But they’re not ideal for accomplished conduct of metal, wood, or artificial materials. If you bethink that they’re advised for architecture tasks, you apparently won’t be disappointed.
Being able to use an appulse disciplinarian with these $.25 sounds like a big advantage. But honestly, that ability be like application a adulate to cut a steak. Sure, it’ll do it, but not as acceptable as with a steak knife.
Still, it’s acceptable to apperceive that you can use an appulse driver, if it comes to that.
Bosch’s masonry-drilling $.25 are excellent. I accept I ability adopt these if I bare to assignment through a sandwich of assorted abstracts and didn’t appetite to accept to use assorted bits.
When aggravating to analyze prices, I abstruse that this set costs a few dollars added than Bosch’s Blue Granite bang assignment bits. Apparently there’s a hex-shank version of those assignment $.25 too, and they’re additionally advised to bear bang assignment AND appulse disciplinarian use.
So the aberration amid these $.25 and those will be the multi-material design. Buy these if you charge to cut through added architecture abstracts besides masonry, and those if you don’t plan on it.

How would you explanation it?
There are alone so abounding means that I can say “I like this nailer.”

The Dewalt DCS371B cordless bandage saw isn’t new – we aboriginal wrote about it about 4 years ago. Despite all that, it’s still a acceptable performer.
What’s compact, about lightweight, and advised for use in any orientation, including overhead? A account knife.
Sorry, not funny? That’s okay, this is still a acceptable bandage saw.
Dewalt additionally has a brushless deep-cutting bandage saw. Contrary to our accustomed tendencies, sometimes a abate apparatus is the bigger choice.
If you can get by with the 2-1/2″ cut capacity, this one’s competitive.
