i've never had their calendar lol, but i do agree their tools are great. Built to last.... which is rare these days for most brands.
stanley also makes good tools although a lot of the brands are moving their forges over to China so the quality/longevity of the tool is less due to inferior steel/iron refinement in china compared to US made tools. A lot of times the tools chip/have fractures due to poor workmanship from china.

I’ve got a black and decker drill as well.
I really could do with getting a new hedge trimmer this year. Something
light and reliable, the current one is a Bosch.
Ive also got this gigantic thing that looks like a massive pen knife but it’s a tree saw.
This is what I did with it last year.
See ladies can do tool talk too. Lol

Who likes chainsaws?
That was a rhetorical question.
We heat exclusively with wood,
so a good, dependable saw is vital to us.
I'm a Stihl guy.
Right now I have an MS261 C-M, which is a rippin' saw.
When I have an extra grand lying around,
I want to get an MS362 C-M.
I also have a small Poulan that was given
to me by a friend who couldn't get it to run.
I cleaned up the carb and put some
fresh mix in it, and away she went.
It's actually a great little saw.
I use it for tree work in the yard, and for
cutting firewood when we go camping.

Makita makes this cordless hedge trimmer,
but it only comes with one battery,
so you'd probably want to buy an extra one.
It's always nice not having an electrical
cord fighting with you while you work.

Hitachi makes the best nail guns in the industry.
Many of their other products are definitely sub par.
When you say hammer-drill, I'm assuming you mean impact driver?
A hammer drill is for drilling into concrete and masonry.
Yes, you need an impact driver, but I would recommend
dumping the NiCads and springing for a Makita Lithium 18-volt.
Those kits usually come with a drill which has a "hammer
mode" for drilling smaller holes into concrete/masonry.

I really need to do something with that gravel area this year. I’m undecided
whether to scrape up all the gravel and lay paying stones, get me some cement etc.
Or scrape it up put down a new weed resistant liner, put in new edging etc.
But then I’m thinking if I go with paving I will have to get an angle grinder to
cut them to shape! Lol
Yes... impact driver. I'm not sure what the difference is between impact and hammer, but I'm thinking it has to do with intensity of the impact... never really read up on it.
Back when I was hanging sheetrock, Makita came out with their screwgun at a price point that was better than most everyone else. Most contractors bought 'em 10 or 15 at a time. The were much lighter than a comparable Milwaukee (still have mine) and they seemed to last almost forever. They were a good tool to use all day long.

Impact drivers create a rotational impact whereas a hammer drill creates a linear impact while rotating a drill bit.
The Dewalt branding was created to push Black and Decker into the professional grade tool market. Black and Decker had a pretty bad name among professionals for being inferior homeowner grade tools.

So I ordered that impact kit this morning, which was $99 and
free shipping, and just got an email saying that it's already shipped!
Thanks Home Depot!

I remember,years ago, when I first used a Makita circular saw. I was in the basement, making plywood rips for some polysteel blocks. I was right-handed, and the saw was left-handed, so I ended up cutting the cord-which tripped the main breaker. All the lights in the house went off. My boss was a little upset and said some things I won't repeat here.
