The cleanest way for cutting pot light holes in a ceiling • This Bosch drill has Kickback control so if it were to grab it would stop, it has a switch to shut it off if you need @Bosch Power Tools . . . #tools #construction #bosch #boschpartner #drywall #electrician
If you have multiple trailers that are different heights this could be the answer. • I’ve been using the @rhinohitch for a long time now without a problem. It’s solid aluminum, has 6 different heights and a this one is rated for 12,000 lbs • Add the @officialconvertaball for quick change . . . #tools #construction #truck #trailer #towing
Do you own a pair of the @knipex Cobras? • This is such a great way of showing how well they grab . . . #tools #construction #knipex #knipextools #sema #sema2024
It’s that time of year again, and we have got a lot of snow in the last couple weeks • This Ryobi snow thrower can do up to 6” of snow which is what it’s doing here. It’s good for decks, walkways and small driveways. • The unit in the video is actually 2 separate pieces. The power head had the battery and attaches to a bunch of different accessories like this snow thrower • There is a ton of Ryobi Black Friday Sales going on right now @RYOBI Tools USA @RYOBI Canada . . . #tools #construction #snow #ryobi #ryobitools #winter
We have been attending World of Concrete for the last 7 years and it’s always a great time. Lots of tools and products to see and try. They also have classes you can attend for learning new methods and techniques. It’s coming up quick this January 21-23 in Las Vegas so don’t wait till the last minute book through the link in my bio ASAP
An air sled is usually the best option to pull appliances out but these @supersliders have helped us a lot for rolling out fridges. • I’m using the @viking_arm to lift the fridge, it’s one of those tools you use all the time once you have it. . . . #tools #construction #tips #DIY #kitchen #floor #flooring
This will be our second winter running the 28” Ego 2 stage snowblower • It’s self propelled so you just walk behind it and it throws the snow up to 60’!!! • I love the electronic chute control, we ran it in -35° and it worked perfect. • I do recommend getting a couple sets of batteries for continuous runtime if you have a big yard/driveway @EGO #egopartner . . . #tools #construction #snow #winter #canada #saskatchewan #saskatoon #yxe #snowblower
A quick parking lot install in Utah in the way to Sema • Am I ever happy I tossed in some of the essential @gearwrenchtools in the EVA trays for the trip down • We stopped by @Tacoma Lifestyle to check out the shop and left with some goodies. One was the @expeditionessentials dash mount and some @rammounts to hold my phone, iPad mini, Walkie talkie and @Heat Wave Visual while we are off-roading . . . #tools #construction #overland #overlanding #tacoma #toyotatacoma #tacomalifestyle
Double trigger safety always calls for some nails into cardboard • Flex just launched a whole lineup of cordless nailers and this 23g is part of it • With the New 2ah stacked battery it makes for a really compact setup • It will take 5/8”- 1-1/2” pins @FLEXPOWERTOOLSNA #flexpartner . . . #tools #construction #flexpowertools #carpentry
Adding some @Diode Dynamics SS2 flood lights for some perimeter lighting on the Taco • The hole on the @Prinsu Design Studio needed to be bigger so of course I’m using a @Diablo Tools step bit, they are perfect for making a hole bigger and clean. • I needed a 6” extension rather than pulling this bracket which is super hard to get at. Both the step bit and extension are impact ready • Using some powder coating touch up that came with my @smartcap and drying it quick with the Makita 18v heat-gun • Some would use these light to blind tailgaters but I won’t 😉 @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #diablopartner #makitapartner #tools #construction #tacoma #toyotatacoma #diodedynamics

I try to blow out our dryer duct at least 2 times a year, you can also use a brush that’s made for it which I have but I found if I keep up on it there is no need • Lint build up from your dryer is no joke so hopefully this can be a reminder for some to do it or get it done. • Using the Makita 40v XGT for this @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #tools #construction #house #Home #makita #makitapartner #clean #cleaning
If you are not running a dedicated drywall screw-gun a bit like this is a great option than trying to countersink them by eye • Now all these bits aren’t made the same, some will sink the screw to far which will break the paper and make the mudder miserable. • This one by @norske_tools has been pretty good. I belive @tasktools has some good ones too • I just got the @makitatools brand new XDT20 18v impact and I’m diggin the ring light on the front and all the controls being on the back now . . . #tools #construction #makita #makitapartner #makitatools #drywall #DIY #tips
Senco makes some auto feed attachments that fit on other brands of drills. • As you can see here they can be used for material other then drywall and take a wood screw • This one fits on the Makita screwguns and can put in up to 2” screws.

Quick little tailgate tea to warm up using the Makita 18v coffee maker • I’ve been using these @bigant.crate all summer for camping gear and they have made their way into our everyday life. • They have a ton of different features that you can check out on their page. • I’ll put the link to their website if you are interested in ordering. There is even a limited edition Kruger Box with my Logo. @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #tools #construction #organization #makitatools #makita #coffee
Need to make a hole bigger? • Here’s a good trick with the @SpyderProducts hole saw • Use the original size to keep you in line and the bigger size you want • Running the @Hilti North America drill . . . #tools #construction #tips #tricks #spyderpartner
What size of miter saw are you mainly using? • My go to is either this 40v 8-1/2” Makita or a 7-1/4” saw. I got sick of hauling around the massive 12” saws a long time ago. • As long as they are sliding with dual bevel I can do pretty much everything I need. Plus they are so much lighter to haul around. • Also I gotta say shadow lines are the best, I was never a fan of the lasers. @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #tools #construction #makitapartner #makita #makitatools
Ok this tintable caulking from @sashcoinc has been on my list of things to try for awhile now and when o saw it at the paint store I had to grab it • You just add 30ml of paint to it then shake, then add the hardener and shake. It says to let it step up for 30 min before using but I still found it a bit to runny so I let it setup for just over an hour • I had my doubts when it was a lot lighter but once it dried more it became the exact color of the paint. I was definitely impressed with the finished results. . . . #tools #construction #carpentry #paint #painter #cabinets #kitchen #bathroom
I’ve shown you the spring tool nail set, here’s the punch • We had to install these wall panels and the screw heads were pretty much the same size as the slot be we had to make sure the drill bit wouldn’t walk • Using the Makita 40v Drill @makitatools@makita.ca #makitapartner . . . #tools #construction #carpenter #makita #makitatools
