    Totally agree Jon I make good money with it BUT it’s not steady work and that’s the issue for us...

    If I could replace our income I would do it full time in a heartbeat.... I love furniture building.

    IMG_20171206_205704986.jpg I am somewhat partial to drills myself. Especially old version 0222-1 Milwaukee's. Probably another 25+ at the shop....... maybe I need help.

    My husband is not so much a hoarder, but he was and still is a tape measure kleptomaniac. Back in the day when we both needed them for work I went as far as to buy hot pink ones, lime green ones (new color at the time) to indicate they were mine, even writing my name in sharpie pen on them in large letters. Somehow they all ended up in his work truck time after time.

    My new Hilti DX 2 showed up today. Attached 140' of track to a foundation and probably won't use it again for 10 years. But it's mine. ;)

    That's the good stuff. Or at least it used to be. The ones we have at work have drilled a gazillion holes in our 8" floors and still run strong....haven't bought any new ones.

    Still pretty good. A 'lil pricey but worth it IMO.
