An avid endurance athlete, Kenny has competed in triathlons (he’s an Ironman) and various other fitness activities. Still, his passions lie with his faith, family, friends, and his love for well-designed power tools. With a background in science, you’ll often find Kenny chatting up engineers at media events to get caught up on the latest tool technology.

The same is true with the phone app as well. The Bluetooth side of SRAM eTAP components only allows a single phone to be paired at a time. To wipe that pairing and add a new phone you’ve got to press the button on your components. One twist to this though is that SRAM stores the information in an online platform account you create. That doesn’t however have any bearing on the requirement to re-pair any new physical phone to the bike, as the online account is just saving settings information at this point.

Yes, the disposable PM and pricing are nuts. No incentive to upgrade my 3 Quarq/Shimano mechanical 10/11s bikes. But I also think you mean Monty Hall and not Monty Python

The unknown is the REAXX reaction time. We’ve seen the hot dog test in person and could barely find the cut on it. You can read more about the comparison between SawStop and Bosch here. Make no mistake though, these are the only two saws that will save your fingers—and that’s a really big deal!

Perhaps a surprise in the group is how well the Greenworks Digi Pro 40V Max Chainsaw did, given that it’s been around for several years now. Speed and runtime left something to be desired, but it did manage to stay out of the cellar in both categories. We also felt the coast down brake to be a standout feature.

To be honest things are getting worse with most companies as they try to survive. Honda and Toyota quality has fallen. VW has had the quality drop for years. Benz and BMW the same.

One other problem for grip comfort of the trigger hand was the protruding lockout button of the Kobalt which digs into a user’s thumb in use. Even worse, the harsh corners on the switch dash of the Greenworks Digi Pro often push against both sides of a user’s hand.

There’s no end date for the fundraiser, and Ruckavina said he’s still working out what will happen to the money — if it will be used outright to buy the car, which would be given to Clark or whether she’d get the money to go buy the car herself.

And then, as I said, the aftermarket is more or less onetime event. You have one opportunity and that is 1st of Jan when — or in Jan when you do a price list update, which, to be honest, have been very, very modest in North America the last few years. So I think the market accepted this time because everybody knows this. And then there is, again, it’s the business actually is at its peak in North America, so the acceptance for price increases were taken by the market.

Like many contemporary battery-powered tools, circular saws chase the goal of the cordless jobsite. They’re not all there yet, but I can say that for most of these tools, you’ll never miss your corded saw as far as convenience is concerned. With the strongest and mightiest of the group, you’ll never miss it for its power either.

This table saw is Lemon. I have it for almost two years and it’s ready for garbage. My two previous table saws by Dewalt last 8 years before I bought this one and it was big mistake.
