Werner 7308 Type 1AA 8' Fiberglass Stepladder, 375-Pound Rated
from Werner.
Tired of flimsy ladders that make you wonder whether you are going to fall off at the first shift in your hips? This is sturdiness at a top level. It is tall, in an 8ft room is comes right to the ceiling, so if you want it for interior work, you might want to think about the 6ft ladder. But it is a...
Sjobergs SJ1600 Full-Size Jointer Workbench
from Sjobergs.
If you have enough room in your workshop, then you need a good worckbench. This is the one. It was easily assembled in about 20 minutes and was perfectly flat and true. I wouldn't call it a heavy-duty bench, but is is pretty heavy. I don't know how I got along without. I used to use the right side...
Makita G6100R 6100 Watt Generator
from Makita.
As a custom homebuilder, I have owned many different brands of generators including Honda, generac, coleman, yamaha, and John Deere. This Makita has been as good or better than any and is easily the best for the dollar. Especially well liked by my men is the auto idle feature along with the fact...
Wing 10103W Little Giant Ladder System (Extension Height 11' - 19', Stepladder Height 5' - 9')
from Wing.
We first saw this ladder at a home show demonstration and thought it was awesome. The company sells direct, but its a slightly better deal from Amazon with super saver shipping. The ladder system is intuitive to use right of the box. Its aluminum channel construction is a bit heavier than cheap...
DeWalt DW723 Miter Saw Stand
from DeWalt.
I'm an advanced DIY'er homeowner, and I needed a stand to go with my DW708 mitre saw. I just got tired of using makeshift supports for long boards and the extension arms are well designed and work great. When I rec'd the stand, it was dinged up pretty good in the main spine section and on a leg. I...
Bil-Jax KT6627-02552-1 Contractor's Scaffolding
from Bil-Jax.
Bil-Jax is the industry leader in scaffolding and this product is one of their best. I've used a number of different scaffold brands and there's a reason why they are number one.
Bucket Boss Brand 01056P Bucket Boss 56 Organizer
from Bucket Boss.
The Bucket Boss is one of those brilliant why-didn't-I-think-of-it ideas you see every now and then. It seems so obvious, after all. Every tradesman has more 5 gallon buckets than he (or she) knows what to do with, and a lot of these buckets get turned into toolboxes by default. They get filled with...
Bessey KBK2440 Cabinet Door Clamp Kit
from Bessey.
If you want precision and a square product when you are done clamping your work, these are the clamps to buy. I have used the pipe clamps most of my life and against the Bessey clamps they are just junk! The Bessey Clamps are made to last, they clean up easy, and are easy to use. It took me some...
Mr. Heater MH9B 9,000 BTU Portable Buddy Propane Heater
from Mr. Heater.
This heater is excellent and the perfect fit, for a certain set of requirements. If you have electricity, use an electric heater. Don't bother with the hassel of propane. The cost isn't too different and the hassel factor is much higher than electricity. I also don't recommend using the small...
Werner D1228-2 Aluminum Extension Ladder, 225 Pound Rated
from Werner.
This 28' type II- 225 pound rated werner is a nice extention ladder compared to all other brands simply because it dosen't twist when your in the air. This ladder is pretty much for painting and maintence work but to tell you the truth this ladder can be pretty bouncy when fully extended. I would...
Peltor 90545 WorkTunes Professional Hearing Protector with AM/FM Stereo
from AO Safety.
I have an extensive music collection that I like to listen to while woodworking. I also have a 2 hp dust collector that demands hearing protection. I now use an FM transmiter on an unused band to listen to my stereo which the Peltor receives reliably. I started with the IROCK! wireless music adapter...
Telesteps 326XXX 12-1/2' Telescoping Ladder
from Telesteps.
This is a great tool for limited applications. 1st - I wouldn't put more than about 200 lbs on it. 2nd - it is fine to get yourself onto a roof or into an attic, but it is not solid enough to work from. 3rd - you must follow the instructions in opening it, especially being sure that every section...
Petzl E44P Zipka LED Headlamp
from Petzl.
A friend of mine had one of these on a kayaking trip I was on last year and I was surprised at the amount of light emitted from this small package. I bought one... then another... and another. And then I gave some as stocking stuffers to family members this Xmas. I use this all the time from...
HTC HOR-1038U Outfeed Rollers 37"x 31
from HTC.
The Roller system is a excellent piece of equipment! It took a while to adjust the height of the rollers to the table. When I did, all rollers were flat with the table. The only downfall of this product is customer service! I had a defective part when assembling. Called 5 weeks ago and still have...
Bucket Boss 55039 Builder's Rig Air-Lift
from Bucket Boss.
After 20 years in the building trades, I have finally found a tool belt that doesn't weigh me down like a bunch of lead weights. With the padded suspenders carrying almost all the load, this belt hangs comfortably off my shoulders instead of my waist. I have added suspenders to other tool belts...
LaserJamb 3HAND4 3rd Hand Support System 4' to 10' (2-Pack)
from Laserjamb.
As always, Amazon shipped quick and complete. The first job I did with this was to jack up a cardboard-type ceiling that was sagging from a water leak above it. Left the jacks in place for a week til the ceiling dried. Success. Now I am putting up 1/2" 4x8 sheetrock on a ceiling that is 9 ft tall....

Bucket Boss 88439446 Insulated True Grip Gloves-Large
from Bucket Boss.
I just received a pair of Bucket Boss True-Grip insulated gloves for by 43rd birthday. Let me start off by saying I have been a Bucket Boss fan for years and own many of their other products. I can't say that "gloves" were are the top of my wish list, or something that I would have thought Bucket...
Xantrex 802-1500 xPower 1500 Portable Household Power
from Xantrex.
This is the second one I have bought, I think they are great, They are so handy to have around, I think it is better than a gas powered generator because of the fact you don't have the vibrations or exhust fumes, no need to carry gas around, We have one for our business, in which we travel around to...
Porter-Cable H1000 10,000 Watt Generator with 20 HP Honda Engine, Electric Start
from Porter-Cable.
Telpro PanelLift Drywall Lifter
from Telpro Inc..
Having owned a Telpro Panel Lift for nearly 10 years, I must admit that I can find only one defect. The lift has paid for itself a hundred times over without fail. It is still like new, having raised thousands of sheets of drywall to new heights, saved my back, arms, and neck from the punishing...

Petzl E43P Tikka LED Headlamp
from Petzl.
The Petzl Tikka came to my rescue last year when I had a little trouble with rodents in our basement. My girlfriend and I lost our pet mouse one saturday night, when it slipped out of her hand. A few weeks later we heard a lot of scrabbling coming from under the stairs and decided the little fellow...
Adjustable Clamp 8510BP Cabinet Claw (2-Pack)
from Adjustable Clamp.
INSTALL A SET OF CABINETS WITHOUT THESE AND THEN DO A SET WITH THEM. HOW DID I EVER GET ALONG WITHOUT THEM.
Tru-Grip FT8TS 8' Tru-Grip Pro FTR Series
from Griset.
This item is a bit pricey but I have to admit it's worth every penny. I have used it several times now and it delivers everything it says and more. I also purchased the saw base slide, but have not set it up with my saw yet. Even with out the saw base, cuts are as straight as they can be.
Thanks
Mag Instrument RX1019 Heavy-Duty Rechargeable Flashlight System
from Mag Instrument.
As a 10 year aircraft maintainer in the US Air Force, I've used everything from standard Mag-lites, scuba divers' lights, and even penlights in a pinch. I can say this flashlight is brighter than any other I've used. It cuts my inspection time in half because I can see things 55 feet off the ground...
X-IT Products AL-15 2-Story Emergency Escape Ladder
from X-IT Products.
everyone should have this ladder if their house is two stories, it stores very easily in a hall closet or anywhere a single couple sleeps. It is one of the best fire ladders I have seen
