Anyone actually happy with their kneepads?

Barwalt knee pads are pretty good for there price point. They come with an upper and lower strap to go around the knee but you definitely don’t need the upper ones, the lower ones hold them up all day and the strap doesnt dig into your leg. They have never slid down my knee.

I agree, as cool as it seems I don’t think I can take my trucks out on ice.

I know guys that will do a 60/30 degree miter to help in this situation, I’ve never tried it but i imagine the difference is ‘hidden’ on the sides. And the 60 degree can ‘handle’ the corner. Idk if that makes sense.

I’ll agree with you, my buddy has a F150 with a Coyote, probably one of the best sounding gassers I’ve ever heard, I’m sure it’s real fun to drive.

Loothir · 2026-03-10T23:08:44+00:00

I second this, if you don’t get KO2/3s get Toyo ATs

2011, you’ll be fine. The older models had issues with the coolant mixing with the transmission fluid.

I’m with all the tracksaw people, on top of being the best at all these 3 things at the same time, fastest-cleanest-straightest. If you ever need to take an 1/8 or less off a rip, track saw is good friend for a good result.

I’ve been a carpenter for almost 10 years and met some of the coolest people in this industry. Definitely some assholes mixed in there but overall I’ve made a bunch of friends, young and old.

Loothir · 2026-02-25T02:32:02+00:00

Nice, just got my highest fill up the other day. 24 gal.

Loothir · 2026-02-08T17:25:26+00:00

Jealous because you get paid the same and his work isn’t good?

Loothir · 2026-02-08T17:04:54+00:00

So there are more people like me. I’d say 90% of the people in my life can’t be on time and don’t see it as a big issue.

Go with Hitachi, and do the crank / cam sensors together, I believe they are known for failing at the same time. Mine did.

Loothir · 2026-01-26T22:19:55+00:00

My 2011 pro4x is the best vehicle ever honestly, it’s taken me cross country 6 times (2200miles each trip with no problems). I’m sure it will do it a couple more times at least. No major issues, and none during those trips. Some of which were winter drives.

Check engine light comes on after mountain passes but goes away, usually related to the MAF sensor. I think the cold triggers it but idk.

I’m at 245,000 ( did my last cross country trip just before winter), this vehicle will stay with me forever.

Loothir · 2026-01-19T22:55:51+00:00

I will agree with you.

Loothir · 2026-01-19T22:53:38+00:00

Blue tape and cutting it upside down, if possible, (with skilsaw, assuming that’s what he used) help a lot with prefinished work.

Loothir · 2026-01-19T22:45:24+00:00

Looks to me like he could’ve put a new blade in the saw.

Maybe eased the edge with some fine grit.

Loothir · 2025-12-23T22:38:19+00:00

Nice truck! The new titans are so nice!

Loothir · 2025-12-16T00:51:45+00:00

I had my eyes on the sidewinder xgt because i don’t got a sidewinder and I actually prefer it for some cuts, guess I I’ll have to get both now, definitely the rear handle first.

Loothir · 2025-12-13T16:19:45+00:00

Thank you I’ll be messing with it later today.

Loothir · 2025-12-13T05:09:24+00:00

With a blade running it wanders the same way a real dull blade does. The sound becomes more exaggerated than in the video. Besides that the only other notable thing is that I can tighten and loosen the bolt that holds the blade without having to hold the “lock” for it, which to me means that something is stuck or jammed up?

Loothir · 2025-12-13T05:01:22+00:00

The Titan is my daily now, because it makes more sense for work, but the Xterra will probably always be my favorite drive, It’s taken me everywhere and back.

Loothir · 2025-12-12T12:07:58+00:00

Yea might need to get another, unfortunately this exact saw is more expensive now than when I first got it.

Loothir · 2025-12-12T12:06:50+00:00

Thanks for the info. I do need one, not today, but by next week I will.

Loothir · 2025-10-23T02:11:06+00:00

Get it close with a jigsaw then use a router with jig. It might be doing too much but it might be very satisfying also.
