This branch happens to be an 80 acre sheep and vegetable farm in upstate New York. The farm staff consists solely of my wife and me, so anything that gets done, gets done by the two of us, and believe me, there’s always plenty to do. Our sheep barn is located about 400 feet out back of the house and there is another cabin about a quarter mile back on the property. The barn does have electricity, thanks to the efforts of the farm staff, but the cabin doesn’t, and there are fences to maintain and other remote work areas all driving a real need for cordless tools. Tools like the Ryobi One+ impact driver kit. Read More

DeWalt Express Folding Workbench Review – Gain 1000 Lbs. In Three Seconds
This post is sponsored by The Home Depot. When I work on a project, I like to keep the crouching and kneeling to a minimum. And it’s not just because my knees are shot from years of crouching and kneeling. OK, fine, it’s MOSTLY because my knees are shot from years of crouching and kneeling, but it’s also because it’s just more efficient and comfortable to work from a comfortable standing position. I’ve set up many a temporary work station using a pair of sawhorses and a chunk of plywood. It gets the job done, but it’s not always super stable, and it’s a pain in the neck lugging around two sawhorses and a sheet of plywood. I much prefer a work surface that has decent work space, is beefy enough for the job site, is easy to schlep back and forth, and doesn’t take up a ton of valuable storage space when it’s not earning its keep. If you have similar aspirations, and three seconds to spare, read on, and we’ll show you how the DeWalt Express Folding Workbench can help you get a half-ton of work within easy reach. Read More
