The Dewalt 15 Amp 13 in. Corded Planer (DW735) is a near perfect machine, but still has a few quirks.



The DEWALT planer (DW735) is a tool that takes your average weekend wood worker and turns him/her into someone that can make some really professional grade items. It’s by far one of the most sought after tools on the market and I understand why, but there are a few quirks to this machine that we wish weren’t there.

Don’t have an endless supply of money to drop on a tool organization system? If not, check out our review of the Husky 14 in. Rolling Tool Tote with Bonus 12 in. Bag. (14Combo12)



There are a lot of different options on the market for tool organizers and cases, the problem is, they usually cost a lot of money. That is where the Husky 14” rolling tote shines. Not only is it a very well built tool transporting tote, but it’s also set at a great price.

The Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 12 LED Flashlight (DML801) shines in more ways than one, but it does have one flaw.



I have had this light for review for over a month now, and I have used it a lot. My work shop is about fifty yards from my house, so I have to walk that distance without any illumination at night. I also don’t have any power installed in there yet, so I have been depending on extension cords ran from the house, and battery powered lighting units.

DEWALT 20-Volt Max Cordless Grease Gun Review (DCGG571B)



 
The Dewalt Cordless Grease Gun offers continuous flow

Through high school and even a few years after I graduated, I worked in an auto body/mechanic shop. Nearly every day I had to grease car and truck bearings, and I hated it. I really disliked constantly moving that lever up and down, up and down, up and down. Other than working with fiberglass, it was my least favorite job to do. Fast forward twenty three years, and look how far technology has come. We tried the Dewalt Cordless Grease Gun (Model# DCGG571B), and this is what we thought.
