What do you do for work? I had an entire bucket full of tools, including my belt stolen and I sure would like to get ahold of the **** sucker that took it. That's how I make a living, how I support myself.....and some ******** decided to take that away from me to put an extra couple hundred bucks in his pocket or some extra tools in his collection. I ------- hate theives.

its ONLY a 14.4v rigid drill. anyone thats used them knows that they pretty much own anything short of 24v drills, ive twisted the drill into my wrists 2-handed on occasion, and that takes a LOT. the only other thing ive done that with was my dads 10amp 1/2" drive black and decker double handed drill.... ****** is 30lbs and takes at least 150lbs of person to hold.

but yeah, that drill is sweet. manager said shes gonna go over the tape tomorrow when she gets in, and gonna let me watch it too. manager + the HVAC guy that saw it are pretty good friends, been like that since kids, and the hvac saw who it was, so he should be able to verify what the ---- looked like.

not a big fan of rigid at my job, mostly just dewalt and makita.

but yeah, i get stuff stolen at my job all the time, if your not wearing your tools, they better be locked up, not hidden.

-----. I man handle hole hogs all day long. I'll put that ****** in low and drill a 3" hole through titanium reinforced hardened steel if I have to. I've actually broken hole hogs in half in low gear drilling wood. I now use a Makita "hole hog" and it's a ------- cadillac compared to the Milwaukee pieces of *****.

For cordless ---- I use DeWalt. I've had the same drill and sawzall for close to 4 years now. Best investment I've ever made.
