argh.pirate asked:

I want to buy a plunge router from Big Lots but it’s $30 and I wanted to know if anyone’s had experience with their tools. It’s made by Pro Source and I’m going to get a set for $89 that has a circular saw (5 3/8″), a jigsaw, a reciprocating saw, a light and a power drill. They are all cordless and it comes with two batteries. Is this a good deal too? Are these going to fall apart or are they good deals?

Teazo asked:

I will be in Europe for awhile and have to use power tools (sanders, saws, rotary tool) while I am there, I am considering getting a power converter (220 to 110 1600watts) to use my US tools there. Any other Ideas on how to accomplish this? Or does anyone know a place to buy cheap EU power tools in the US?
I am a bit worried about using the converter as I have read sometimes they overheat so any info would be great. Thanks

rivasj27 asked:

I love construction and do alot of my own building and repair. My husband loves that I get involved and don’t wait on him. But I love the power tools. The air compressor, the nail guns are my favorite. Any other woman who like to work with her hands and do alot of the construction around your house or do you leave it all to your man? If you are like me, does it benefit your marriage?
