TOOL REVIEW – RYOBI 31PC Drilling and Driving Kit
Today we have yet another bit-set to test out. This one, however, is just a standard set – not like the impact-rated kits we’ve talked about in the weeks preceding this. Let’s see how they do in the professional trade world.

TOOL REVIEW – RIDGID OCTANE Cordless Brushless 18V 3-1/4 in. Hand Planer
I have to admit, I don’t know the first thing about planers. I’m an electrician, I’ve never used one of these, but I was sent one to review so what I’ll do is tell you the specs, rather than try to pretend I have an opinion on the quality of the tool.

TOOL REVIEW – Bosch BLAZE 135 ft. Laser Measurer with Full Color Display

TOOL REVIEW – RYOBI 40PC Impact Rated Driving Kit
This impact-rated driving bit set is a great little kit to have. This is a similar bit set to the 70-piece I wrote about last week, just a little more trimmed down.
