Again, my #horoscope being way specific today (again) at the very end of a long entry telling me to be nice today and to work on DIY at my house BUT absolutely no #powertools.

PPE is vital for safe operation of machines, vehicles, powertools, drills et al. I use these types of gloves to operate my race machines safely

It is crucial to know what your PPE actually protects you against.

That knowledge enables you to implement that PPE for many different situations and use cases.

Surprisingly the HQ of Makita Hungary is in Székesfehérvár, instead of the capitol, Budapest. So when I registered for the battery redemption promo, they called me to ask, since I live in the city why don't I pop into the HQ and they give me the battery in person, instead of shipping it in 3-5 days. So I did. This is the weirdest support your local dealer situation.

seldom used but one of my favorite power tools hacks. a pleasure each time.

as battery power tools I have Makita. but RYOBI hat this brilliant battery Schuko booster/inverter. so with a "batdapter" (available from/to pretty much any large brands) I get a 150W Makita outlet.
and can use it with light green Bosch tools.

a power outlet pretty much anywhere.

(model RY18BI150A)

Your Power Tools Got Worse On Purpose | Who Really Owns DeWalt, Craftsman, and Milwaukee?

How TTI and Stanley Black & Decker took the same playbook in opposite directions. One invested $206M in R&D and grew to 4,000 workers. The other is $6 billion in debt and closing its hometown factory.

Worse on Purpose

Oh my dog, this is hilarious. I visited a store selling 18V Bosch cordless tools.

Bosch 18 V 2.5 Ah battery / €69

Compatible All Alliance 18 V 2.5 Ah battery / €39

Out of curiosity and out of my general cheapness I went with a compatible one.

Little did I know that when opening the generic brand package I would end up holding a Bosch branded 2.5 Ah battery. 🤓

There might be somekind of warranty/registering differences*, but basicly the branded Bosch cardboard package is evidently worth 30 euros. Oh my word, I need a drink or at least a Dr Pepper.

*I care too little to look into it.
