Geeze, what a bunch of crap, get the most powerful De Walt you can justify
paying for and a pocket inverter. Also get an extra battery. I use them
every day in my job, you cannot beat De Walt for service, availability and
initial quality.

Boats-r-US has a Seafit 12v drill on sale. Is there a 12v drill which
will
run and/or charge off your boat batteries?

But it's hard to argue with buying good
quality tools.


Not if you're Scotty the Chump...er...I mean CHEAP!

Hate to pop your balloon, Capt., but B&D did make some professional-grade
tools a while back. They weren't cheap, and they were top-notch. It's only
been within the past decade that B&D went the cheap consumer tool route.

Yup. The grinder is massive and a bit hard to handle, but it's built great. I
don't know what I'd have to spend to get something like it now. Probably 300 or
more I suppose.

RB

No they don't.

That's an awesome statement from someone who can't tell a buffer from a
grinder and uses the grinder to "buff hulls"...

No yard on the planet uses a buffer on a hull, Mooron, at least not one
I've
ever seen. They use big grinders with polish wheels. Polishers don't get
the
job done, except maybe on a new hull that hardly has any oxidation. I have
no
doubt that you own a silly automotive polisher and some of that colored
New-Wax!

Bwahahahahahaaha!

But Bob claims all marinas use "Grinders"... big professional grade
grinders.

Very true, I had a B&D Pirana, one of the first 12 volt models made. it was
one of the best drills I have ever owned, had it stolen 8 years ago.

A pro grinder, eh? WTF is that? I've been in a lot of big steel fab ,
machine shops & weld shops and can't recall ever seeing a B&D tool.

You lose!

Bob strikes me as the type of person to have a Hilti gun and no clue as
to
how to use it.... for the sole purpose to claim he has professional
grade
tools. Next he'll claim he only buys Milwaukee Tools!


Sorry, Mooron, I buy tools that last. I've had a B&D professional
grinder
for
11 years and used it on boat tasks for 9 years. My Porta Cable sander is
not
only durable, it also does a better job than others I've used. The
Makita
is a
film set standard for the setbuilders union and costs under 150.00. At
such a
small price why cheap out with a Ryobi? There's just no reason to not
have
the
better tool when the cost is so small.
As usual, you're not only wrong, but shown to be a cooked fish in the
process!
Enjoy your Walgreen Drill!!!

Bwahahahahahaha!

Just after you tighten the collett.

Since when do router bits have motors?

I'm afraid the clerk is wrong. Dewalt still uses different motors from
B&D
and
are rated for a longer lifespan.

Good lord. My B&D Grinder is 3000-7000 RPM. A brand new Porter Cable POLSIHER #
7336SP is 2500-6000 RPM.
Unless your boat is pretty new, you'll be using the upper RPM ranges once you
know how to handle it. Some grinders do up to 10'000 rpm fixed with NO load,
and even that's fine with a big pad. It slows down a lot when applying
wax/compound. Even skilled autoshops will use them, though paint buring is a
risk.
Sorry, BOB CARROL. I actually own and use these tools, so you can't come in and
hope to make crap up.
BUSTED AGAIN!

RB

I hope you're not accusing bob of thievery.
