I have a mix of Dewalt, Milwaukee, and Bosch. Out of the three, I like the Milwaukee's over the other two.

Lawnmowers, I have a Cub Cadet and a older wheelhorse for the trails. Trimmer is a Toro 2 cycle.

Chain saw Husky 450. Plus a 16" Polan for trimming around the yard.

DR chipper for clean up.. but that is a co ownership with Pops. Auction bought... still works well.

The Husky is reputed to be a great saw. The Poulan may be a POS, dependent upon if it is a scrench capable (good) or a plastic wheel adjustable (chain tension) - bad. DR is good. Toro- look for an EPA sticker. No sticker- bad. Class C 50 hrs better Class B 125 hrs better Class A 300 hrs, best. Only Echo 300 hrs.

Fuck Stihl, Husqvarna, et. al.

The Dewalt 20v is the same way, they both kick the Makita's ass, even though many buy the Makita because of how it feels in your hand (without actually using).

My little 12v makita's have helped me through many many quads, dirtbikes, saws, lawn mowers, etc. I use them more than my 18v.

Nothing gets more attention than my welding machine though.

edit: dont forget the good ol spud wrench

I ride quads.

Everything else is the creation of engineers, city boys, and suburban pansies.

Sorry, Foster old bean, but ...

Who needs that electric shit?

I like my Porter Cable power tools.

I just went this morning to a guy's house and purchased his dad's roofing nailer. His dad passed away, and he had no use for it. I'm getting ready to re-roof my house and shed this spring. His dad used it to re-roof his house, then sent it to a local supplier to have it serviced, for absolutely no good reason. The guy wanted 75 bucks for it, I told him I only had 60. It is as brand new, I swear. I called the co. that serviced it (sticker on gun) The owner told me I absolutely stole that nailer.

Hitachi NV45AB. I read the reviews, this is a seriously good tool.

Damn it feels good to be a gangster!
