Nice, they were a popular brand back in the day! Thanks for the comment.

I'm sold on Pica!

Yep, it was as easy as you stated.

agreed i just go for the 1" for everything but 1/4.

Agree, but I had it from the kit, so I tried it and lost lol.

@@jestermetalworks now your stuck with it forever in this endless loop of lifetime warranty. The perfect trap.

Wierd

True hahahaha

Correct, the output pressure is controlled by the knob, dial it to whatever pressure you need coming out of the hose.

Thank you!​@@jestermetalworks

lol, yea , it's flickable, not sure if its a good or bad thing! hahaha

That is an orange milwaukee fastback

@@cdb4123 the clip is different along with the handle, but its close.

Truth, I think some people just expect these lasers to be push a button and bam your project is done, there's a little more to it.

Yep, craftsman has changed a lot over the years.

You bet!

Thanks

Thanks

Indeed!

Well that's not good, I have been using mine pretty much daily, no issues yet.

A steal at that price lol

Agree, I have had the little bearing get loose and drop the bit and sleeve down into a machine, annoying for sure!

Yep, that's how we always used them, match the old to a new one from the bin!

Of course!

Back in the day, I'm talking in the time before Amazon, your choices were more limited. Sears and Roebuck, the original mail order system for us old timers were pretty much your go-to way to get tools, at least for the DIYer or homeowner. Back then, craftsman tools were the way to go. Now, you can get tools from anywhere. Thanks for the Comment!

@@jestermetalworks yeah i know, bought lots from sears. quality kept changing every few years from sears changing suppliers.

Yep, not my best day!

True, I haven't seen them in the big box stores, Amazon is where I got Mine. Pica Dry Pencil - Amazon Affiliate Link - amzn.to/3VSi4On Markall Pro - Amazon Affiliate Link - amzn.to/3XQ2s0t These links get me a small commission, but you can just sign in and look for the item if you'd like! Either way works. Thanks for watching!!

@@jestermetalworks thx. Whys it called dry

@@donotrobme9295 Pica makes a variety of marking tools, the Dry line denotes a pencil, They have An Ink Line along with a Gel line. Hope that helps!

Markal pro at northern tool

I haven't tried the racheting model yet, good to know

It was pretty hefty, luckily I only had to move it from the locker to a golf cart most of the time.

I have heard mixed stories, some say it's been no problem, some have said they had issues. I have never personally tried to warranty a craftsman tool at Lowe's So I can't say for certain.

I always loved the sears tool catalog, nothing like tool porn!

I wish! Lol

I think everyone knows.

I remember that screwdriver, don't remember where it went!

True, back in the day Craftsman was THE name in tools for the homeowner DIY Types, now its an "also ran" at a big box store!

@porkchop955 Wow I had a 66 rambler wagon with a flat head in it. I am 66 now and yea my Dad bought me a toolbox with tools from Sears . And I lost him 2 years ago May.

Same story, I got the set for Christmas one year, then went off to the army so my dad kept them with him. He passed last January and I'll be damned if he didn't still have most of the set.

@@jestermetalworks Thank you for your service.

@@porkchop955 It was My Honor to serve! Thanks!

Hahahaha truth!

That's what I thought too! But Lowe's is sure proud of em!

Thanks

Yea, I knew better! Totally my goof. Time management is my weak spot lol. It worked out in the end, the penetration worked. Yay total boat!

Thanks!

Not on this particular screwdriver, but I have had one come apart, but that was after a couple years of use.

That's what I was shooting for. Thanks for watching!

No doubt, even if they replace all the workers with robots, someone has to fix the robots that break down. I think the time of robots repairing themselves is a ways off.

@@jestermetalworks awesome to hear! Thank you for your work and I can’t wait to get into the trade! Cheers!

@@Drum93bum Good luck! When you get to working, find an old timer that's been in the trade for a while, Just watch every thing they do, they will have figured out the tricks and if you keep your eyes and ears open you will be ahead of the game!

@@jestermetalworks I will definitely be a sponge when I get paired up with an old timer. Those men are the ones with the real tribal knowledge

Yessir, it can all change in a second! Just trying to send an ugly reminder to everyone...Stay safe, but be ready when bad stuff happens, cause it will! Thanks for the comment!

True, push stick may not have been called for here, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

It was doing ok, made the whole cut, then at the end i just lost focus and the push stick hit the blade. Probably would have been ok without the push stick! Thanks for the comments!

Thanks! Everything healing as it should!

All good

So true, even when you think you're doing it right, it can go bad fast!

That's what it's all about, hopefully seeing what happened to me will help people to remember to be safe! Thanks for the comment and the well wishes!

No Problem, trying to get this unfortunate and slightly embarrassing incident out there to make folks aware and remind everyone to stay alert about table saws! Safety, always Safety! Thanks for the comment!

Exactly, The ER doctor even asked If I was using the guard, and for the record, no I wasn't, But the nature of the cut wouldn't really allow it. Either way, I didn't make contact with the blade myself. The push stick was the culprit here for sure, and I never saw that coming, so to speak. PS the ER Nurse said to tell people it was a shark bite! lol More interesting story! Thanks for the comment and stay safe!

I know, right!

Exactly, the push stick is supposed to be the safe option, I never thought in a million years that would be what bit me! Thanks, just trying to remind everyone to stay safe and maybe this will add another safety check for table saw users!

No shade whatsoever but I want to highlight the “I have, what I believe, is a healthy respect for…” Nobody believes they have anything besides a healthy respect. Every 9 fingered carpenter had, at one time, what he believed was healthy respect. Now he has 9 fingers. Healthy respect looks like fear countered with courage and tempered with experience. Anyone who doesn’t fear a high-rev blade is simply too stupid to recognize the imminent peril they’re in. Anyone who doesn’t have to courage to work through that fear has no business near the tool. And experience should temper, not cancel out fear. Too much of our society’s men believe fearlessness is synonymous with courage. It isn’t. That’s marketing pure and simple. You can’t be courageous unless you encounter fear and proceed anyhow. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

@@addammadd Lotta truth in that TED talk!

Thanks friend, I put this out in hopes that others can learn from my mistakes. Stay safe out there!
