There’s really no way around this because so much indoor air can leak into the ceiling around them. Be sure to use IC-rated recessed fixtures fitted with LED bulbs. Besides using much less electricity, LED bulbs run cooler than incandescent. You’ll also need to use fibreglass shingles to withstand the heat of an unventilated roof.

Capital employed has increased quite a bit, 26%, but here heavily impacted by the new IFRS 16 reporting requirements, which has increased increase capital employed by SEK 412 million, that is the main part of the increase here, and then, of course, the SEK 210 million increase in working capital is also increasing the capital employed here.

On the truck side, the penetration rate is slightly higher, it’s about 50% our estimate, but still, on the truck side, there is also an upside for more advanced products. Interesting in China, is then maybe that they will move directly to the disc brake, which is then an even more advanced, and from safety and brake regulation, a better product. And then, as I mentioned, around our Scalable Brake System, China is most likely the market where we will see the full electric brakes as well. So China is very interesting from the technology that moving from a technology level, which is maybe 1/5 of Europe, into the most advanced on some applications at the same time. Challenging for us, but we definitely have a product for this market.

Can you confirm the “Price and Value” section is correct? You discuss a 12.0 Ah battery as being included, but then start talking about 2.0 Ah and 3.0 Ah batteries. Is that correct? Seems like a huge discrepancy.

Craftsman and writer Michael Springer specializes in testing tools and covering the tool industry for construction and woodworking professionals. Based in Boulder County, Colorado, but going wherever the story takes him, Michael crisscrosses the country yearly to visit manufacturers and attend trade shows, and occasionally gets as far afield as Europe. When he’s not running the kilowatts through power tools, Michael enjoys drumming and rustic woodworking with chainsaw, axe, and adze.

And then we have reported the number for the OpEx cost of new technology. We also have a portion of the new technology going into capitalized R&D for the new products, but what you see here is the effect of OpEx.

Bought in 1999, this 911T – dressed up in a racing inspired livery – has become Walker’s trademark Porsche, appearing on t-shirts and stickers around the world. It may not be the prettiest, but we admire Magnus’ workmanlike attitude to #277, a continual work in progress.

Mettler Toledo is no stranger to welding robots. Robots mounted overhead perform the linear welds that connect the ribs to the scale decking. Each scale module has about seven ribs, which adds up to a lot of welding. The product mix is too large and variable for a hard fixture, of course, so operators lay out the ribs onto the deck, tack them, fixture them, then run the robot.

Editor’s Note: If you’re using the Bosch REAXX saw without dust collection, you’re going to want to partially open up the clasp located on the bottom of the saw. This allows the sawdust to exit the blade chamber through a half-inch gap. Failure to do this will clog the output port in a very short amount of time. When you use a dust extractor you can keep this chamber fully closed.

Reversing the electrical flow throws the motor into reverse long enough to provide the friction needed to stop the rotating blade. As a result, the saw blade stops much more quickly than it otherwise would on its own. It’s easy to imagine the potential damage a blade spinning for 12 seconds after the cut could do—particularly with larger, heavier saws. Equal danger exists with both circular saws and angle grinders which can be set down while the blade still spins.

A Chevy Colorado is on our shortlist of vehicles we would love to have in our garage. And because of this, we’ve spent no shortage of time critiquing and researching reasons why others should own one. At the same time, we have reasons why someone may want to pass it up. Of course, not all reasons are created equal, and priorities are different based on the consumer.

Weight isn’t subjective – it is what it is. You might expect the value class to be some of the lightest, but it’s Skilsaw that comes in the lightest at just 49 pounds. It’s light enough for some people to carry it back and forth one handed. Ryobi comes in next at just over 50 pounds (50.95) followed by the Bosch 4100 table saw at 60 pounds even.
