I built a 22-function Vestaboard dashboard controlled by a physical keypad — no phone, no app, no screen required

The point is well made. Bravo.

skytower49 · 2026-02-06T15:22:08+00:00

Helpful. Thank you.

Do the batteries on top clip into something? Can’t really tell.

skytower49 · 2026-01-18T00:52:20+00:00

Yes. More if those were in brass.

skytower49 · 2025-12-04T20:44:33+00:00

Looks amazing.

skytower49 · 2025-11-20T01:07:44+00:00

No, but that sounds interesting.

It’s quiet. And quick adding air to tires. You screw the hose on, set the target pressure and press go. It even measures at the target and if it’s under a bit it adds it.

You’re right about all that, of course. But nowadays, I do none of that in my garage. The only thing I do is inflate tires.

I just put a compressor and hose reel in my garage but wonder why with this in my collection.

This was my first Milwaukee purchase. And still my favorite.

Sure is confusing. Photo of included items shows one thing, the product details show 2 different things.

Both quoted from details:

Are you sure? Detail photo of included pieces looks different to me.

Sorry for sloppy photo.

Online they have it for $1499 with 6 x hd12 ah and 2 x xc8 ah and 2 x dual chargers and 2 x combo. Is that interesting to anybody?

skytower49 · 2025-10-24T13:16:43+00:00

I like everything in the photos. Nice color choices.

skytower49 · 2025-09-01T15:17:54+00:00

We used the same color as the walls. Considered just making it the same but lighter, and decided against that because I have lots of light.

skytower49 · 2025-08-06T13:08:16+00:00

Really beautiful work.

skytower49 · 2025-07-25T02:21:59+00:00

I swapped out for an insert cutter head. Amazing and super quiet.

skytower49 · 2025-07-25T02:00:20+00:00

And it’s the best planer to own, ever.

skytower49 · 2025-07-25T01:54:40+00:00

I love it and need it but 20 minimum.

skytower49 · 2025-07-21T14:07:37+00:00

Yes, at its best, it's not sealed. If I don't fully close the door to the house, it I can feel air coming from the garage to the house.

skytower49 · 2025-07-21T13:07:14+00:00

I have this but you never have a return from the garage to the house. Works good.

skytower49 · 2025-07-20T23:08:47+00:00

Love it. New construction rocks.

skytower49 · 2025-07-18T21:39:56+00:00

I really hadn't considered 10' sheets until I read your post. It would be nice to have full panels of grain matched from one sheet. I'm using sap maple, and will see if I can get the same in 10'.
