An air sled is usually the best option to pull appliances out but these @supersliders have helped a lot • I know first hand how easy linoleum and even hardwood floors can indent • Usually they come in a 8 pack so you can leave 2 under and the fridge always sits on them in place, then connect the rest and it rolls out easy protecting the floor • I grab them from Homedepot or local flooring stores . . . #tools #construction #tips #DIY #kitchen #floor #flooring
This ExoActive is a battery powered ExoSkeleton that that adds support and lightens up the load when working overhead • It comes in huge systainer that is a lot lighter then it looks. A lot of adjustments to dial it in for your body size. It also has 3 different preset modes for support and a custom ones you can set on the app • For sanding ceilings with the Planex this will make things a lot less strenuous. • Working for longer periods of time with less wear and tear on the body is the idea behind this tool @Festool Canada @Festool USA . . . #tools #construction #exoskeleton #festool #festoolpartner
The Hilti collated screwgun attachment is one of the smoothest and most consistent that we’ve used • After this basement flooded the drywall was cut to 24-1/2”. We cut out boards at 24” and it gives us some play if the demolition cut was wavy or the floor isn’t flat • It’s honestly just good practice to keep you boards 1/2” off the floor just in case you have a small flood and so the boards doesn’t absorb to much moisture from the concrete @Hilti North America . . . #tools #construction #drywall #hilti #hiltipartner
This is the perfect place to use the @kneel_it • These 2ft drywall flood repairs jobs can be hard on the body if the kneel or squat . . . #tools #construction #drywall #kneelit #insurancerestoration
When we were on holidays I checked out a tool store and saw 2 customers buying this Makita coffee maker • It makes we wonder how many of these are out there • They are the only tool brand that I know about that have a coffee maker and microwave now • We know they have a framing nailer coming but I wonder when we will see a cordless table saw? @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #tools #construction #coffee #makita #makitatools
The deep capacity rebar doesn’t just have more capacity but it also get ma the bar tighter, you can see it suck together on that first tie • There is 7 pieces of 15mm here • I get a lot of comments about it would be a pain to load but it’s super simple and takes no time @makitatools@makita.ca . . . #tools #construction #concrete #rebar #makita #makitapartner
So I saw this collapsable toilet and figured it would be good for our overlanding trip, and of course you put a bag in it before using it • Then I got my hands on this @lntoverland.co.kr shower tent from @bigtentoutdoors for my @ikamper.ca and it all just made sense • A lot of people will say to just go in the bush but you don’t want to do that close to camp when there is bears around because it will draw their attention • Lots of great LNT Overland products online @bigtentoutdoors . . . #tools #camping #overland #ikamper #rtt #lntoverland #tent #Outdoors
Been using the @windshieldwow to clean our windshields this summer and have been a big fan of not having to squeeze into trying to get the inside • It uses magnets through the glass, it came with good glass cleaner but I already used it all • The grey cloth is the buffer, it just makes sure there is no streaks • It takes a bit to get used to because you’ll hit the rearview mirror and the edges . . . #tools #clean #car
Check out this @oepanels making my aftermarket light switch panel look factory • This is no 3D printed out of place looking part, even the color is spot on. They even have a toggle switch face replacement to swap out that gives you more room. • This mini @gearwrenchtools screwdriver set was perfect for the assembly • Had to trim a little bit o factory plastic behind with the @Diablo Tools general purpose blade . . . #tools #construction #toyota #tacoma #tacomaoffroad #gearwrench #gearwrenchpartner #diablotools #diablopartner #overland
Jobsite Surround Sound!!! • Check out this Ryobi ONE+ 18V Hybrid VERSE LINK Stereo • It can click onto your link boxes or wall system. It runs on a battery or you can plug it into a cord. • Built in subwoofer with 2 mids gives it a full sound with some nice thump. This is by far the best sounding stereo they have made. • To top it all off you can use their VERSE system to pair it to as many clamp speakers as you want. When you turn the sound all the way down on the primary unit they all go quiet. • It’s also the first one I’ve seen the you can broadcast the radio station to all speakers. Normally it’s just Bluetooth music from your phone 250’ connection on this system. • The clamp speakers can be used individually to play music via Bluetooth @RYOBI Canada @RYOBI Tools USA . . . #tools #construction #ryobi #ryobipartner #ryobination #ryobitools #jobsite #DIY
We made a little jig to tack our hangers in place with this @MetaboHPT cordless metal connector nailer. The nice thing about this connector is it takes both 1-1/2” and 2-1/2” nails. There’s no dragging around a hose and having to plug in a noisy compressor. #MetaboHPTPartner https://vm.tiktok.com/ZTNnQekSQ/ . . . #tools #construction #framing #deck #metabohpt
Now Available is the @Diablo Tools vacuum SDS Rebar Demon • It has this built on sleeve that has an attachment for your vacuum • The 4 cutter carbide head is bigger than the sleeve so it can follow behind and draw out all the dust.

Don’t put it down, Put it away. I’m really trying to stick with that. I know if there’s a flat surface it’s only a matter of time till I’ve completely covered it with random stuff • I’m working on making sure my tools in the shop all have their place • Here I’m using the @StealthMounts Bench Belt XL to give this tape measure a place to go • Using some white lead in the @picamarker fine pencil and the @marxmanpen to make the holes • @Hilti North America . . . #tools #construction #organization #adhd #hiltitools #hiltipartner #stealthmounts

Installed these @rideshocks last month and made a 3200km trip through the mountains right after. This is a huge change from the ones we had on prior. • These are setup for my heavy Tacoma, with all the weight we don’t want to be bouncing around like crazy and slamming down when hitting bumps at high speeds. • They are designed and made in San Diego by folks that actually use them and put them through the paces. • We are just under 2 months away from driving down to @semashow in Vegas to show it @gearwrenchtools booth • @rideshocks are available @TACOMABEAST Use promo code “MURRAY10” to save 10% on these or anything they sell . . . #tools #tacoma #toyotatacoma #tacomabeast #gearwrench #gearwrenchtools #sema #sema2024 #overlanding #overlanding #overlander #rideshocks #accutuneoffroad
