Go on line and fill out a form and they will have a UPS label you can print off and ship. I have yet to have to pay for shipping. We buy a ton of Milwaukee stuff so I don't no if that is the reason??
Yes the weed eater is great an so quiet!
Thanks! Weed eater is nice because the oldest can use it no problems doesn't have to mix gas etc.

Mostly ryobi, but have a couple milwaukee and a couple Dewalt. All have been good and get the job done.
 
What do you guys do with the old batteries? I’ve got a few old and practically useless Ryobi batteries sitting in my garage that I should probably recycle or do something with one of these days.
 
Have run them all, and more, except Ryobi. Never had one. A true professional can get the job done with nearly any tools at hand.
 
At work we pretty much only have Dewalt stuff. It gets thrashed on and works well. At home (and any jobs I do for myself) I use Ryobi. I bought a set at a pawn shop when I got married on 2016 and 3/4 of the tools still work (brad nailer crapped out). Since that's what I started with, thats what I've continued with. No complaints other than the Sawzall eats batteries alive.
 
Yeah well, I’m holding out for a cowgirl who’s more trot than thot.
That sounds expensive.

Cross barrel racers off your list....

At least she doesn't ride English
 
I think each brand tends to really nail (pardon the pun) one or two tools. So, I've come to enjoy having a mix. I really like DeWalt's table saw, Hitachi's miter saw, Bosch's jig saw and reciprocating saw. I think Hitachi got their finish nailer just right, but not quite so on the framing nailer...

Put them in an Amazon box on your front seat with the door unlocked and let someone steal them.
 
EGO 650 leaf blower, good batt life, strong
Kobalt recharge chainsaw
Kobalt Extended reach articulated trimmer...no complaints
Smaller Black & Decker trimmer...probably 15 years old
Hilti cordless combo screw/hammer settings/drill...expensive but worth every cent.

Talking right over the common mans head as per usual, Ben.
Irl life I’m a harbor freight and rtic guy.

Once you put a ring on her finger it goes like this:

What's hers is hers, and what's yours is hers.

Example: There's a large mound of compost, brand new trellis & pergola and a new outdoor dining set outside, and I'm still not looking at a new shotgun or a boat.
 
Only an idiot doesn't teach his future wife to shoot. Mine loves shooting, killing squirrels etc. She has several of her own pistols and rifles and has "adopted" a couple of mine. She keeps asking if my Ruger 6.5 CM kicks very bad. Of course this is the woman that wanted a new Stihl battery chainsaw for her last birthday. We've been together since sophomore year in highschool and I just turned 70.
