Frankly, you can’t go wrong with any of the random orbit sanders made by respected toolcrafters these days; it’s really a matter of brand preference, your budget and what fits your hand most comfortably. This one’s among the least expensive from the big toolmakers, but its features are pretty well matched to its competitors. Its motor is a tad more powerful at 2.4 amps than the crowd, but there’s no discernable difference in use. And like...
This pneumatic hardwood-floor stapler is a compact, mallet-actuated air stapler that automatically positions and drives staples for rapid installation of hardwood flooring. It secures the flooring at the proper angle and penetration without the danger of hammer marring. By simply resting the nose of the machine squarely against the work, the direction and angle of the staple is automatically aligned. This stapler is easily adjusted to handle different...
This angle finish nailer is one of seven new heavy-duty air-powered nailers from the venerable Milwaukee, and the whole series is another testament to the red label’s unflagging quality. Our first impression was how incredibly light this nailer is, and its compactness makes it a cinch to tote and use, especially in awkward positions and at the tail end of a long day of trim or floor installation. Still, it’s a heavyweight in the power department,...
This coil roofing nailer is one of seven new heavy-duty air-powered nailers from the venerable Milwaukee, and the whole series is another testament to the red label’s unflagging quality. At the top of our list is how incredibly light Milwaukee’s nailers are, even fully loaded, and their compact size makes them a cinch to tote and use, especially in awkward positions. But a close second is the clever inclusion of a magnet that holds onto the nails...
No compressor. No hoses. No kidding. And no sacrifices in speed or power, either. There’s absolutely no comparison between this performer and the fuel-cell powered competition, which we thought was a great innovation. But there’s no costly fuel cell to replace on this tool—-just pop on a recharged XRP battery and get back on the job. The only difference you’ll feel between this and a traditional pneumatic is that you’re...
This one’s a bit of a paradox: The do-it-yourselfer might pass by this compressor in favor of an oil-free, no-maintenance model, but it’s actually one of the best on the market for the homeowner, hobbyist and weekend warrior. There are three factors that made us form this opinion. First, it’s the quietest compressor we’ve ever encountered. It’s a remarkable departure in a genre of tools that normally force you to suspend conversation while...
