Yep, the 1/4" is the superstar, it gets used and Abused the most. Getting kicked , thrown and it jumps from tall buildings to the concrete below. It just runs better and better...it a Dewalt. The adapters, chuck attachments are mostly Milwaukee and Makita. Their tool steel is second to none imo.

Huot/Morse drill bits...cobalt M42 big set.

The short weable looking cameraman is creepier imo. Noticed he always has a food stain on his shirt.

I use DeWalt for two reasons.
2) They are everywhere, attachments can be had.
1) As a past contractor, I can see the bright yellow on a lawn or in the corner of a yard at dusk!!! (The black batteries, not so much.)

PRESSURE WASHERS, Vertical motor type. You know, the cheap ones... 🙄 I'm no pro but want to do cars and.my house. Cars take low power but loose house paint wants some psi. PwrRyte seems to be a big brand, at least on Amazon... Which also helps w Assurian.warantee, which may suck, but may be worth it. Some sport a 2 yr warrantee.and their sister a 3 yr, and sometimes none stated for another sister within the brand. I can usually plot a curve or sense where the most bang for the buck, but these are driving me nuts..I cannot justify a horizontal electric nor a gas.

(Eyed a gas Honda return at Home Depot last year. Darned if my sorta brother in law didn't buy it. And Sent into me.to get it started, lol. New design. 1 pc head and cylinder. Not meant to be repaired cheaply.)

The $259 is nearly twice the $129, but I fear a weak unit will frustrate me doing the paint removal. ANY Input appreciated.

I'm already married to DeWalt. I've put my impacts through A LOT, and they still work.

I just ran across these pics today.... this is the F150 we cut up (Diablo Blades). What these pics don't show are the core support we also cut. All done with a 20V DeWalt Sawzall too.

You can see the fenders cut here.



The frame bent towards the left. The frame was also cut up at the top corner. I want to say all this only took two blades. For some reason, the plastic and fiberglass seemed to do more damage to the blades than the metal.



One more for the road.... Blade and saw pictured.
