Stanley 12-960 Contractor Grade Low Angle Plane
from Stanley.
I'm a carpenter's apprentice and as I purchase tools to add to my collection, I always consult the guys on the job beforehand. This block plane, without a doubt, received their absolute recommendation. It's a great tool to have around, as I learned, for hardwood flooring. When cutting the last few...

Bostitch N80SB-1BAG Industrial Stick Framing Nailer with Free Carrying Bag
from Stanley.
As a handyman I've used this in the last year to remodel two kitchens, a couple of baths, build a deck, and much more! So far it has proven to be flawless! So why buy this unit? Brand name: Bostitch is very well known and respected within the business. A longtime contractor recommended...
Stanley 33-725 25' Fat Max Tape Measure
from Stanley.
Absolutely a must have for do-it-yourselfers. Getting critical measurements by yourself can be a chore if you need to reach a long way. I recently did some remodeling in my kitchen, and this fat baby was indespensible. The top hook feature was a great addition as well. I was able to reach out much...

I got the Buck Bros. plane as a gift... but wish I got the Stanley... Plane blades are accessible online at HD if needed too. Go for it..Why get that way too expensive one?
Goldblatt Trowel Trade Tools 13602 Pattern Pistol Gun & Hopper
from Goldblatt Trowel Trade Tools.
I bought this texture gun to spray the finish stucco coat. But, I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. After reading the previous 2 reviews on this product, I decided to make the mixture a bit thinner. For the first 5 minutes or so, everything was ok. Then, the nozzle keeps getting stuck, and...
Stanley 12-920 Contractor Grade Block Plane
from Stanley.
This is a solidly built block plane that will give you years of service once you spend a little time and tune it up right. Nearly every plane made requires some fine adjustment out of the box so that should not be considered a negative when purchasing this item. The cap iron may need a little...

from Stanley.
Stanley 34-130 FatMax 100' Long Tape
from Stanley.
The 3:1 rewind ratio is to much, a 2:1 would be sufficient unless you plan to wind it up from the 75-100' area. The tape is flimsy and bends easy. After snapping lines on only 3 houses, the blade wont even lay flat from being bent. The hook on the tip is really loose, and not very accurate, and also...
Stanley GR100 Glue-Pro Contractor Grade Glue Gun
from Stanley.
This heavy hot-melt glue-gun user was thrilled when she opened her new Stanley GR-100 christmas gift anticipating it would vastly improve her speed and gluing finesse; alas, the trigger on it is a great deal tougher to pull than my .38 (no mean feat - perhaps manufacturer wants you to carefully...
Stanley 20-045 Fat Max Hand Saw
from Stanley.
The Fat Max Hand Saw made quick work of everything I've thrown at it, even 6x6 landscape timbers. Aggressive cutting and a sturdy blade provide for easily guided straight cuts through hard woods and PVC as well. Highly recommended.

Stanley 51-941 Antivibe 16-Ounce Curved Claw Hammer
from Stanley.
After overworking my right arm constructing an addition,(I'm an air cond. contractor, not a framer) for six months I could hardly grip with my right hand. The tendon damage was considerable. Every time I tried to hammer the injury would flare up. A local building supplier said try this hammer....

Stanley 33-730 FatMax 30' Tape Rule
from Stanley.
After reading other reviews, it appears that I may have received a lemon. As mentioned in one review, the return velocity is very fast -- and it did lead to kink and tear. My primary complaint relates to excessive play in the lip (well beyond the lip's thickness), which has led to inaccurate cuts.
Stanley 33-835 35' Powerlock Tape Rule
from Stanley.
As a carpenter for 15 years, most houses I build are over 30ft.
in one direction or another. The length of the tape is critical for most work done on the job. The Stanley 35' tape is durable, rigid, and is the tape of my choice since Stanley made them a few years ago. The stanley 35' tape helps...

Stanley 67-077 6-Piece FatMax Screwdriver Set
from Stanley.
Stanley has introduced a number of FatMax tools in the last few years. Frankly, I think some of the FatMax tools are just marketing gimmicks, but the screwdrivers are some of the best I've ever used. What makes these screwdrivers special is the tri-lobe grip (FatMax grip) which makes them easier to...
Stanley 16-268 3-Piece FatMax Wood Chisel Set
from Stanley.
I found the quality of these chisels to be more than satisfactory for my purposes. They come in a hard case which makes them very convenient to store and take to job sites. Each chisel has a plastic cover for the tip, and these are locked in place by the hardcase so they don't get lost. The...

Stanley 10-801 FatMax Sport Utility Knife
from Stanley.
When I first saw this knife advertised in a magazine I couldn't wait to get one. What a great idea two types of knife blades in one heavy duty handle -or so I thought. Every time I used the utility knife side the blade became dislodged and would never retract without me having to open the handle and...
