Stanley Tripod Flashlight 95-112B – Review

95-112B LED

I have always been a fan of the Stanley Tripod Flashlight, and have reviewed the predecessor to this one (95-112).  I’m happy to say that even though I never really had any issues with some of the negatives I read on other reviews, Stanley obviously pays attention, because this new and improved model addresses all [...]

Ridgid Fuego Circular Saw 200

This week I had the pleasure of reviewing a brand new FUEGO 6 ½” CIRCULAR SAW BY RIDGID.  I was already familiar with the tool, and in fact I’ve used the tool over the past 5 years, so I probably am a bit bias.  I liked the tool then, and I like it now.  It’s [...]

Ryobi One+ Lithium Ion 18V String Trimmer

Ryobi String Trimmer

Ryobi One+ Lithium Ion String Trimmer Makes the Cut! As I’ve said in other reviews I have done on Ryobi tools, “Ryobi makes no bones about the fact that they are not a Pro Brand (big brother Ridgid handles that area), but instead are designed for the average DIYer, easily found as the house brand [...]
