REVIEW – My neighbor is an electrician, and like a lot of folks in the professional trades, he travels to the job sites where he works. He brings his own tools, which are inevitably piled into the back of a large pickup, and then hauls them around from room-to-room as he works. For craftsmen like

REVIEW – A pressure washer is great for cleaning your outdoor stuff, but sometimes those bigger blasters can be overkill. This is where the Lemolify Cordless Pressure Washer enters the chat.

REVIEW – Years ago, a Dremel kit was a must-have toolset for DIYers and crafters. They were very useful tools with a variety of bits for different tasks, but they were bulky with a thick power cord.

REVIEW – Hanging pictures has always been something I dread. I am the worst at getting them level. Command strips made this even harder because you only have one shot at pressing that picture to the wall. I recently completed the Lego Milky Way picture and want to hang it above my desk in my

REVIEW – Have traditional tape measures run their course, and do they need improvement? Although I wasn’t entirely convinced, the folks at REEKON Tools have convinced me otherwise. I’ve been a semi-professional woodworker for quite a few years (making some side cash on woodworking makes me a semi-professional, right?) Anyway, every project I have worked
