Guys, I bought myself one of these after wanting one forever: https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGID-...cB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Plus, I bought 3 other stackable hard cases that match and stack, including the clear top organizer for screws and toggles, etc. They snap together like rolling baggage.

I spent the afternoon moving tools out of various soft tool bags, organizing everything. I am so loving pumped

Owns. I really need to get something like this. Every time I need to haul my tools I put them in a tote and it's not ideal at all. Having wheels would be great.

In other I'm officially old because I'm way too excited about it purchases I bought a couple non-stick pans today because I'm sick of poo poo always sticking to our old stainless ones.

I've been eyeing them for at least a year. My younger brother has the Craftsman one, but the way that system stacks together and the latches are both kinda janky compared to the Rigid. The Milwaukee branded one is super nice too, but it costs double any of the others. I wasn't 100% sure that I'd like it, so I didn't want to pay for Milwaukee. DeWalt makes one too, but I just liked the way the Rigid snaps together when stacking, plus it has moisture and dust seals, and the beefiest latches of any that I've ogled in stores

That Rigid price point looks good compared to the Dewalt stuff I've looked at. I wish Menards carried at least one higher quality brand because I have some gift cards to burn up there.

Oh man last year we bought some scanpan pans without any rivets sticking out from the handle, totally smooth. Incredible difference.

The ones I bought are Woll brand and are completely smooth as well. Very excited to make some breakfast tomorrow.

Menards tools and accessories are generally poo poo. I will 100% go to Home Depot for any tool I need, electric or otherwise. If there was a Lowes in my area, that would be my preference. Menards is good for building materials, but the quality of the brands they carry (other than ones like Bosch) is horrible.

Yep, that's why I commented on wishing they carried one of the better brands. I don't have HD or Lowe's in my town so that's my big box option.

I think I need to give up woodworking as a hobby. Not because I don't like it, but because every time I make a mistake, I have to explain it to my wife, then I have to hear about it from her what I should have done. Then she goes online and looks at the same thing online and asks why I didn't make it like that. I'm just sick of having every little thing critiqued, especially when I already know I screwed it up.

No one but you needs to know you hosed up. You can almost always fix it. Do that and move on. Woodworking owns, don't quit.

does anyone even use hard drive space anymore or is it all in the cloud?

is the camera worth extra money


yeah, but like of all the bullshit i use, I use my phone the most. It's literally by my side at all times.

She's got the Pro. I wouldn't go for the Maxx because it's loving huge. The extra zoom camera will be nice for those pics of your dog. Storage space is kind of on the user. Save a $100 and get the lower model and spend $5 a month on icloud or get the bigger drive.

Weird winter so far. In MN we got a bunch of snow late October, and I was worried it would be there until spring. Then it melted and we didn't have snow stick until December 23.

Similar here in ND. We have no snow at all and it was 44 today. I'm fine with it.

Not bad, very enjoyable game but I got roped into Call of Duty for now. I'll get back to it and plan on buying Hitman 3 at some point. I got a little too obsessed with finishing all the scenarios so when I go back I'm not diving in that hard right away.

Is there some reason Amazon delivery people never ever knock or ring the bell? I’m not looking for them to hand me a package or whatever, but it’d be super cool if I didn’t leave a laptop on my front porch for two hours because I had no idea they came by, despite sitting on the couch mere feet from the door.

Mine knock but they usually are a light knock so if you're not near the door you might not hear it. This is another good reason to have a camera with motion detection.

If stopped for a bit which is normal for a high moving stock. It went down a bit then shot back up. It's basically a meme stock so who knows what will happen with it but it'll burst at some point.
