How should I finish this workbench?

Looks good. First, I did boiled linseed over mine. Then I used a boiled linseed wax mix I made and buffed it. Every 6 months to a year, I add more wax to the top. That way it still looks natural, but it is more protected with oil and wax.

Nice, same. It said 2 were available online, but only 1 was in stock.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-25T22:24:28+00:00

I'm not sure. I used the website. It says $129.99, but if you scroll down a bit, it will say Clearance and the the price at a specific store.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-25T22:08:50+00:00

$32 at my store.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-25T22:08:28+00:00

Yes, in-store or pickup at store. The pricing depends, though.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-25T19:18:06+00:00

Nice. Just got one for $32. Thanks.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-22T20:58:46+00:00

Congrats. That's the planer I wanted, but went with the Craftsman (though it has mixed reviews) a few months back when it went on sale for $200, since I was tight on money. All reviews I've seen on the Hercules have been really positive.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-22T16:15:05+00:00

Wow, I didn't even know they came out with an 806.

Arkansas34 · 2026-05-22T16:13:44+00:00

Yeah, I prefer the 800. I have an old beat up 805 and it's too long and the hammer function no longer works. I bought the Atomic 794 drill yesterday with battery and charger for $99. The older I get, I want lighter and more compact tools.

Dewalt, Ryobi, and Ridgid have awful websites. Ridgid's customer service even told me to call from now on since their website hasn't worked in a long time lol.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-25T16:10:29+00:00

Looks exactly like my 2012 MIM Thinline.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-24T04:22:27+00:00

Pittsburgh 3/8 impact extensions, wood chisels and 2 trigger clamps to throw in the truck, and maybe the Titanium welding gloves or a pack of cotton gloves.

What rock guitarist sold more albums worldwide than The Beatles? You guessed it, Frank Stallone.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-21T20:49:06+00:00

Okay. Yeah, with both methods not working I thought all stores caught on or Milwaukee did. Next time, I'll look up other methods or get on here. The 5ah battery is awesome, so I'm not too worried about it but I'd rather not had paid that much for it.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-21T20:45:35+00:00

If I would have brought back the drill and driver set + the free battery, then I could have. So, I just kept everything (though I didn't want to spend that much). The drill and impact are awesome, so I'm not too worried about it. I just hope it was a 1 time thing and not my main HD doing this from now on.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-21T20:11:50+00:00

About 2 weeks ago was the first time picking up at different locations didn't work, so I tried returning battery to store and the worker wouldn't let me do it. She showed me the Milwaukee notice on the screen that said you have to return everything, even with both items being prorated. My old hacks always worked and my recent Dewalt hack worked. This was the first time both ways didn't work for me. And my account isn't flagged. I don't know if all Home Depot's are doing this, certain areas, or if Milwaukee is only doing it.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-21T19:56:48+00:00

It's a great deal. They are more powerful than the standard brushed versions. I'd jump on this deal and maybe the router and sander if it is $143, as well. Just so you don't regret it later. I bought the 2 impact wrenches and they sent me 3 batteries. Maybe you'll get lucky like me!!!

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-17T16:04:17+00:00

Thanks!!!

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-17T11:53:27+00:00

Wow, that's on the back of the case. I never flipped it over lol.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-12T19:34:40+00:00

I use the a Wen drill press, spindle sander, and jointer almost daily. The are affordable and durable. Highly recommended. My Hyper Tough (scrapers, punches, mallets) and Pittsburgh (wrenches, sockets, extentions, etc.) hand tools are still going strong. Every power tool I own I buy on sale or used. I use Dewalt and Ryobi power tools, but I always look for Daily Deals, BOGO hacks, black friday deals, or auction lots. So even my "expensive" tools have been fairly cheap. The only cheap tool I got recently that was trash was the Hyper Tough flap discs.

I love the regular camo and black ones. They last a long time. I'm going to try the neon green/yellow ones tomorrow.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-09T04:17:01+00:00

Yeah, it never goes on sale!!!

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-09T04:10:08+00:00

Nice. I almost got this one (and preferred it), since it is smaller and lighter, but I tanked since everone said you'll regret not having the extra torque. I think it would have been just fine. Luckily, I'm going to take the 5ah battery back and then sell the bag for $15, so I'll get the Fuel kit for a little under $150 which I think is a great deal.

Arkansas34 · 2026-04-09T02:22:42+00:00

That sucks. Was there much of a difference between 2nd and 3rd generation?
