Ryobi and Dewalt! They're used, but they work great.

We use DeWalt where I work, They're garbage ! Don't know about Ryobi !

@Majorsite Ryobi used to be great, back before they changed the colors. It seems they traded quality for design.

@InkBot Well, We use Our DeWalt drills all day, But still after a couple months, The Chuck's wobble so bad Yo can't start a screw without it slipping off and hitting Your hand !

@Majorsite The Ryobi drills aren't much better. The part that closes around the bit, it doesn't grip well, and the bit slips in when you apply pressure. They wobble, too.

@InkBot I use Milwaukee for power tools at home !

@Majorsite Have you ever heard of one called Chicago something? I had one, but I gave it to my dad.

@InkBot Sounds kind of familiar, But at least Milwaukee give You an extra set of motor brushes !

@Majorsite I'll look into getting one. I've always had Dewalt, Ryobi, and Porter Cable. I've used a Milwaukee impact drill at work before, to break up concrete slabs. It was huge. It was like a jackhammer.

@InkBot I have My late Father's Milwaukee sawsall, He used it forever, Now so have I, And the extra set of brushes is still in the metal carrying case ! Can't hurt them !

@Majorsite I forgot, we had one of those, too. I hated it. The big drill, though -- a coworker broke his arm with it. I told him to hold on tight before drilling. The whole drill turned, twisted his arm until it snapped. 🤷

@InkBot Well, That's an industrial one, I can see that, But the drill survived, Didn't it ?
InkBot · 36-40, M
@Majorsite Yes. That was many years ago, and I think they're still using it.

@InkBot You seem like a very nice man. What else are You into, We should be Friends !
Majorsite · 61-69, M
@Majorsite I'm waiting !!!
InkBot · 36-40, M
@Majorsite Sure! I fell asleep last night. I didn't see your response.
