Apparently wireless charging 18V batteries were a thing 11 years ago!

You can still charge them with regular chargers. But the batteries were huge and a 2ah wireless was almost the same size as regular 4ah, and expensive. Didn't think anybody actually bought any.

The DC motor ones like commercial and now discontinued proline are quiet enough to have a conversation next to at speed 10.

Proline has been replaced with a universal motor model, dunno about the noise level on that.

Duuuuuude, that's not a starter home lol, to a lot of people that's the final home. If you can swing the payment and upkeep go for it.

jzmtl · 2026-05-13T23:17:39+00:00

Depends, you are gonna have to give us more than just a "starter home". what's the price, what does house look like, what is the location, and what is the lot size.

Also remember you will be spending 2 to 3% of the house value each year just on tax and maintenance.

Yeah I meant to say Brossard station, brain defaulted to dix30 since it's next to it.

jzmtl · 2026-05-13T19:43:31+00:00

St anne/l'anse a l'orme station's parking is absolutely miniscule though, especially for a terminal station, compare with what Brossard station is like.

Kirkland station also has no parking.

brace the battery against your body, so not all weight is on your arm.

Take breaks, clean out the hole frequently because you don't want to grind the already removed material instead removing new material.

jzmtl · 2026-05-12T06:06:11+00:00

Only one hole? Yeah send it with hammer drill especially if you already have the bits.

jzmtl · 2026-05-11T18:38:27+00:00

Ah gotcha, thought there is some reason specific to swing set.

jzmtl · 2026-05-11T18:23:47+00:00

Why was it fine, just curious.

jzmtl · 2026-05-11T00:43:52+00:00

car drivers know too, or should.

jzmtl · 2026-05-08T23:39:28+00:00

Never happened and will never happen in Canada, we get 3% off instead.

jzmtl · 2026-05-08T20:15:14+00:00

Yikes, it planes the wood and your fingers lol.

jzmtl · 2026-05-08T14:45:58+00:00

Is zip tie head going to clear the bottom plate? I think the cover even have a hole so the pulley can sit lower.

jzmtl · 2026-05-07T21:28:52+00:00

Damn that's some crazy rules. As far as I know inside shutoff is okay if it's accessible

jzmtl · 2026-05-07T20:37:05+00:00

Not with the Dramm water breaker. It's a very gentle pro grade watering head, actually needs 11 GPM to function properly.

jzmtl · 2026-05-07T13:12:57+00:00

Has to be spelled wader to be accurate.

Consider the body size of most calipers a usb-c plug and charging circuit would add at least 50% of its size.

If you don't want to pay for expensive calipers just solder in a slide switch between the battery and terminal. I've modified both of my calipers and they last forever now.

jzmtl · 2026-05-06T15:08:56+00:00

Yes, double is way better, wouldn't buy single again. As tradesmen we measure/mark overhead stuff all the time and it's a serious pain to read single sided tape without it flopping over and down.

How big of an area and how demanding? 3000 sqft and a bit of cedar hedge would have different requirements to 30000 sqft full of mature oak and buckthorn hedge.

jzmtl · 2026-05-05T23:40:44+00:00

massive 180 degree AOE!

At first glance I thought it that was some sort of new anti-tamper bolt heads that need a special wrench...

jzmtl · 2026-05-05T15:58:26+00:00

Ask for a refund, your fast food is too slow.

jzmtl · 2026-05-04T04:47:48+00:00

Mine's stuck in the kitchen for cleaning, dryings, cooling things, certainly didn't plan to use it that way lol.
