    If money is not any concern, I use and recommend Hilti.
    Hilti is without question worth the premium price.

    You should be thankful you don’t get texts from @tarheelmatt otherwise, it’s a whole different set of images.

    I purchased Hilti for my substation construction crews.  Agree they are the toughest tools built to high standards.  I also tooled their trucks with Milwaukee battery tools.  Both stood up to heavy construction use.  I had a big tool budget, so price was not a issue.

    Google "hazard fraught tools" for a much needed laugh..  I can't get the images to post.  16-ton nail unbender, manual chainsaw...

    As my Dewalts wear out, I upgrade to Milwaukee 18v FUEL.  Much more robust and bulletproof.

    very nice charging station...

    I bought a 9V Dewalt Drill in ~94 used for rugged homeowner use but aside from replacing batteries 5 years ago thing has worked and lasted incredibly.
    XLBGE, LBGECharbroil Gas Grill, Weber Q200, Old Weber Kettle, Rectec RT-B380, Yeti 65, Yeti Hopper 20, RTIC 20, RTIC 20 Soft Side - Too many drinkware vessels to mention.

    Not quite in Austin, TX City Limits
    Just Vote- What if you could choose "none of the above" on an election ballot? Millions of Americans do just that, in effect, by not voting.  The result in 2016: "Nobody" won more counties, more states, and more electoral votes than either candidate for president.

    Here’s why you don’t buy Dewalt. My $600 table saw has a plastic paddle to lock or unlock the angle adjustment. The back part where you tighten it down cracked several years ago probably a year or so after I bought it and just spins around the nut. I take it apart and use a socket to lock or unlock when I need it but I have the day off today so I decided I’d give them a call. I told the person what it was and they gave me the part number and sent me a link to where I could buy it. It’s a $1.55 part. You buy Dewalt if you want but that’s the kind of service they have.
