We have 2 Menards, the quality of stuff is right on par with Lowes and it's cheaper than Lowes. We have 2 Menards, 1 Lowes, 2 Rural Kings, and a Tractor Supply, Menards is easily the go to for me. Price is right, quality is right, and available options is right. You also can't beat 11% rebate back on everything you buy because they run that deal ALLLLLLL the time.
I went around looking at supplies one day this week while it was raining. They do have a lot of options.
I definitely still prefer Home Depot for tools, but supplies Menards will give them a run for their money.
Appreciate it 👍
I would suggest buying lumber from Menards instead of HD or Lowe’s. First of all it’s usually nicer then the other two and second Menards has a lumber yard in the back so you can just drive in the back and load it straight into the trailer instead of loading into a cart and then again into the trailer.
I checked out their lumber, but yeah the straight load into the vehicle will be nice
I love my bahco wrenches
They are really nice. I like the grip on these
That grease gun is great. Had mine for over a year now, and it’s worth every penny. I use it constantly on heavy equipment, and prefer it to the m18 one. Just need to get a lock-n-lube and a swivel for it. Really nice setup to really use the full 8000 psi out of it.
It is pretty nice.. I don’t use one often but it was worth it at that price. If someone used one all the time, it would be a must.
Nice haul! I may look into those WD40 pens myself. Nothing else at the moment; I'm somewhat "over-tooled" for now, if such is possible.
Don't quit. Nothing good ever came out of quitting 😂
@@bamslife2812 momma didn’t raise no quitter 😂
I am starting to find it hard to find anything but Klein… no one else is releasing much in the way of new tools
You can 3D print inserts/have 3D print inserts made for the Mod Box
👍👍 I haven’t searched Etsy yet for Mod box stuff.
I see you learned how to say...
Morah Kniv.... (Hammer/Knife lover)
And those Bahco are pretty choice.
I had been wanting to try them first awhile, I’ve had so many people recommend them.
I use the TapeTech skimming blades. If for some reason the blade gets bent I can replace only the blade and not the whole tool. I also use the M12 grease gun, mainly around the shop. Its way better than old school grease guns. It's kind of like the M12 caulk gun. I dont use it every day but damn glad to have it when I need it. Not sure how often you use thick adhesives. I use alot of Black Mamba for undermount sinks. If you have ever squeezed on a tube of it you will know what I'm talkn about. I bought it just to install undermount sinks but have started to use it for other things.
I have the caulk gun too, along with the bigger cartridge holder. I don’t use it for painting type caulking, but adhesives for sheathing and vinyl base I really like it.
Level 5 sells just the blades, I doubt Vevor does at their price point
My
Favorite adjustable hammer I've ever owned is Carlyle
😂😂.. adjustable hammer
I’ve never used their brand… will look them up
I didn’t know the Modbox inserts were removable. I’d really like if Klein sold them empty like you’re using.
They take some persuasion, but they come out. I’m surprised they don’t sell an empty option.. or even one with removable dividers
One thing menards has that I really like and is super underrated are the Montana brand bits. They're all made in USA and super high quality for a good price.
I freaking love the Montana impact rated drill bit set with the 1/4" hex drive to use in impact drivers, they drill through metal like butter. Also the impact bit sets are very high quality, they have real Robertson bits that work great with square drive screws.
They also have some cool woodworking bits like plug cutters meant for portable drills. The drill bit/pilot drill bit holder that makes it easy to drill pilot holes and then swap with your screwdriving bit, or the countersink drill/driver combo bit. Amazes me that the Montana brand stuff stuff more popular.
Appreciate the suggestion… I believe someone mentioned them to me before in an organizer video or something. May have been you
Otherwise menards is good for buying cheap one off tools, they have a huge selection of cheap single sockets or wrenches. They don't have the big 3 power tool brands, they have skil, Bosch, and then their own masterforce power tools. Nicest thing about them is they carry so much stuff in one spot.
For the years they carried the biggest selection of toughbuilt bags but I heard they dropped toughbuilt for their own masterforce clip tech bags (that are apparently compatible with toughbuilt) likely has to to with the toughbuilt Lowes deal and I assume toughbuilt might even make the masterforce bags
@@johnnyolson258 I’m hoping to have some time this week to look around.
It’s always good to know what all supplies people carry to know the options you have
Skil has some pretty nice tools, such as their 12” & 16” circular saws. Bosch has some of the best tools such as Lazers, Rotary hammers, sanders & drill bits.
Menards often has 11% rebate. I pretty much don't shop there without it. You just need to remember to send it in. Some Knipex, Wago, GRK. The Masterforce toolboxes are actually pretty decent. Just use some dental floss to remove the logo. Furnace filters. Some decent inexpensive work gloves, but lots of garbage too. Avoid the off brand fasteners and basically the off brands in general at Menards. They always lead to frustration.
They have it going on right now since it is “just opened”. They have signs all over the place 11% on everything.
Good to know it’s not an all the time thing. I was assuming maybe it was.
They have a of Menards here in IL. They do sell Knipex as well. They have wayy more selection and options on products than home depot and lowes. But Home-depot and Lowes are nicer ambiance wise.
I walked around some this week. They have a pretty good material selection, especially on building materials
I think the Modbox setup you bought was on sale because it uses the older 11-1 impact driver and not the newer version. Klein is killing it with those kits. The M12 jig saw is calling my name.
I noticed it’s not online, so I guess they are phasing it out.
That was one of the tools on sale too, but I already had it. I like mine so far. Still would prefer a trigger, but I’m getting used to it
@@MORGANSMaintenance I never use the ratchet function, ever.
If you're a barrel grip fan the m12 is the best. My poor dewalt has a coping foot on it and sits in storage for trim only.
@@MattHmm-rq6dn it's just for cutting plexiglass
@@mozzberg590 I don’t either.
I think it was in a comment a few videos ago but the adjustable wrenches including that bahco was a slight mod to them. I put a small brass open bushing sirclip or anything to push the worm gear more rigid. Once you do that and you lock on with your thumb it takes play out of the mechanism. I got a pack of tiny brass sirclips with no label metric? a long time ago they tighten things up. They helped my lobster and fujiya adjustable wrenches as well. I think maybe some brass bushing for a thoes fancy edc super steel knifes may work as well if you cut a flare in them. Maybe it will help some of you out there good luck 👍
Yeah I remember you saying that 👍👍
Yo I just bought that Tajima chisel knife. Get the belt attachment it locks in place and it’s super sick.
👍👍.. it seems like a pretty good tool
Just looked up the chisel. Cost $32 now on Amazon.
I got it at $15, it was then $21 when I went to get the picture for the video, then $27 later when I checked.
Matt-hmm said they change the price on it all the time. They also have a short and standard… the short was more expensive when I got mine
I'm glad you like the adjustable wrenches they are better in many ways. I carry a 3 in 1 oil pen and perfer that to wd40. I use the tajima electricians knife for door adjustments, moroseing hinges stuff like that since it's always in my bag and slim. Mine isn't as sharp as new but it hasn't dulled much and consider it a installation/quick repair tool. You deserve to give it a shot and not relegate it to box opener status. I didn't know that plastic cap came off thanks for the info. I haven't used a grease gun since the farm and I don't think it's something I'd ever use but for the tool junkie what's the harm even if it's only so often. I have one of thoes Lee Valley cutting rules and use them on foam board with 25mm snap knives they are useful. The chisel knife won't hurt to slip onto your bag so when the homeowner has a door issue you get to be the hero!
Oh, I’m going to try it on doors and things… I just wasn’t sure how well it will work. I just mortised an entire door the day before I got it in the mail, but there will be another one.
I don’t have a Menards in GA unfortunately but my parents live in MI and have one. Check out the lumber. The lumber is much better quality than HD or Lowes.
I did check it out. Better quality and definitely more selection
I have the same bahco 8” plus another bahco 8” 8071 R. They are great wrenches. I love the wide opening and the comfort grip. The machine work on them really impressed me, they have a really good fit when grabbing on nuts and bolts. Snap on actually owns Bahco, and they sell the same snap on branded wrenches for about triple the price.
I had seen that about Snap-On and Bahco.. the grip is pretty nice
😎⚒️😎⚒️😎
👍👍 Thanks!
I bought the 32501hd mod box kit and dropped in the ratcheting handle from your other video, now the 2 kits work together the 1/4 ratchet and socket set 65300
It is a good thing they have going where they build upon each other. Interested to see what else they come out with, and if they start selling individual pieces.
Menards is great but as far as quality tool selection they aren’t as great as say a Home Depot. A lot of Masterforce power tools which doesn’t interest me. They do carry a small selection of Knipex pliers which is awesome. A lot of their power tools tho is for the weekend warrior but there is quite a bit of contractor grade tools sprinkled in. Great for consumables and building materials tho.
Fun fact-I live in Eau Claire Wisconsin where John Menard is from and where the first Menards was ever built. One thing I appreciate is that all his stores are laid out the same everywhere you go. Very convenient.
They did have a great selection of hardware and tools. Hopefully I will have some time to really look around one day
Everybody loves the bahco's.
I used to watch the deals of the day like a hawk, yet people were still beating me to the best ones.
My guess is the m12 cutoff with 2.5Ho and a free 2.5ho battery (unless you hacked it).
I already have that tool, but I did see that deal.
It’s getting harder and harder for me to find deals on tools I don’t have. Most of Home Depot’s are always the same, so once you buy them, there isn’t many deals left.
I thought about getting the Tracksaw (which is M18), but it was sold out
Try a different area code if for the tack saw might be in stock then. Sometimes I put a east coast zip and can buy it.
@@MattHmm-rq6dn it is still on sale with a free track, but they had it as deal of the day with $50 more off. I don’t “need” it… but if I get a sweetened deal it will twist my arm.
I just bought another Veto Bag today.. will be getting the DP3 with it.
Good for you! Yea my local store has the bare m18 track saw for 329 to 350 I can get festool track at my local paint store for 100 for 8ft. They have been trying to convert me for years so I have a standing offer when I'm ready. They really do value relationships there my $60 gallons of expensive paint is 35 after environmental fees. If it helps anyone try 97080 or 97060 never know.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Which veto bag?
For the modbox you plan to leave empty - maybe pad it with some rubber sheet.
And if you have multiple modboxes you intent to take the insert out of - maybe get a piece of thick foam and make cutouts in it to suit certain tools to make a modified modbox.
Good ideas 👍
You can get ~2mm thick EVA foam for crafting. Comes in lots of colors. I think it’s be perfect for lining a box like this.
You can also glue layers of it together if you want to make contours. I find it easier to work with many 2mm thick foam layers instead of trying to cut through thicker foam.
@MM If your Menards has a food section like the ones in the Midwest, check out Sprecher Brewing Co. soda(especially the root beer). It’s a Wisconsin soda company that uses Wisconsin honey as a sweetener. Otherwise, they have a lot of inexpensive tools(MasterForce, Tool Shop, etc.), and some nicer stuff like Knipex, Bosch, etc.
It did have a grocery section, I didn’t check it out yet… but I will.
Thanks 👍
They sell alot of felo and halder hammers as well the best soft mallet on the market. Go Germans they even have one that stands up on its own upside down 👍
Great video, didn’t know that the inserts were able to be removed…thanks!
You are welcome 👍
Nice haul. I picked the grease gun up a while back on a HD deal of the day and I really enjoy it. Having replaced my ball joints on my vehicle…this comes in handy for upkeep. If you run any kind of heavy equipment…it’s a must have. I’m headed to Lowe’s to see if the Klein is discounted here in my neck of the woods.❤
I can definitely see its usefulness. If I used one real often it would be a must have.
Hopefully you find a Klein 👍
Hultafors makes an electrician's chisel and it has a holster. Real great
I think I had seen that one before too… 👍👍
I have used the Bahco adjustable spanners for years, but have just recently bought the slim jaw one from Chanellock as I didn't have that version from Bahco. I also prefer the Bahco ergo slip joint pliers to the Knipex cobras. Hard to get the WD40 precision pen over here, but I have a no brand refillable oil pen, that I put a light oil in that does okay for me.
I like my Channellock one as well. The Milwaukee ones are really good, but a little thick.
I’m not sure how an oil pen has hid itself from me for 25 years… I have always had to act like a spray painter while using cans 😂
Morakniv is the brand you’re thinking of. It’s pronounced more-ah-nive. They’re known for inexpensive, durable knives, like the 511, 546, Kansbol, and Garberg. It’s a Swedish company, and I think most of their stuff is made in Sweden. I highly recommend all the knives I listed.
They are good it's what I used before the tajima. The size and slim profile are why I switched. It's amazing a company acanthus put the money into the metal and cheap out of the handle in the best way to make an affordable product.
👍👍.. I can never think of it on the spot.
Thanks for the recommendations
I wish I wasn't so invested in the milwaukee packout.
I still really like all my Packout stuff, but some of the newer stuff coming out from the other brands is finally becoming enticing
The Klein is so violently orange. I can’t imagine having anything large that is that color. The smaller mod boxes are fine.
@@gf2e yeah, I’m not a big fan of the brightness of it either. I prefer the color scheme they have on the drawers in their system more than the boxes. It has some orange, but mostly gray.
We have several Menards in the area, including the town I live in. Right next to my nearest Menards is a Home Depot. 9x out of 10 I go to Menards. Maybe it's because I know where everything is. Lol. Masterforce is a good brand. Lifetime warranty for most of their hand tools. Pretty equivalent to Husky from Home Depot. Menards also often has an 11% mail in rebate for in store purchases, and they carry some of the more popular Knipex, Channellock, and some other quality brands of tools. They don't always have everything I'm after, but good for most things when I'm not after a specific brand of tool.
Growing up in Southern Michigan near Indiana border I loved trips to Menards! Now that I live on the west coast I miss it dearly I've even had relatives mail me odd things from there that I can't get other places. I can order online but try add a 4 to 11 processing fee on top of shipping on orders making it silly expensive for a few dollar item. Lucky for you folks that have them nearby.
I did see some Knipex in there… and some Channellock tools too.
Masterforce is not a good brand. Stop making stuff up. Lol
The 11% rebate ussaly brings it below amazon too! I see the rebates as offsetting the sales taxes you all have to pay 💸 goodbye
Nice deals.
This style of adjustable wrenches is my way to go. I stopped using classic ones.
For making larger surfaces even you'd need thicker skimming blade. Those finishing one follow the surface.
I like the head thickness on the Bahco ones.
Yeah the Vevor one did really well the time I used it. I hope to not need one that big very often 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenance ON two wrenches I have, heads are even leaner and more pointy. I can use them in spaces I cannot get any other tool.
The other knife brand you can’t ever remember has a long European name but most everyone knows what you mean when you say “mora” the sales reps even say mora
I always know it, until I need to say it 🤣
Yeah it’s a weird name for good ole boys in America
My guess is the M12 jigsaw gen 2
Good guess… but I already had that one. It was a good deal though
I definitely like the electrician's chisel. It would be great for door hinges That big skimming blade is nice myself i prefer a flexible blade. Btw. have you ever used a hawk and trowl for mudding sheetrock.?? I been thinking about trying that out. But i hate to get invested in something that im not to sure about thanks Morgan
I’m the same on the Hawk and Trowel… I’ve watched plenty of people do it and I see the advantage. I think if I was doing new construction I might try it, but I see myself dropping a bunch of mud on a finished area 😂
I recommend you try and hawk and trowel start cheapish and see how it goes for you. The aluminum hawks do fine paired with an average stainless trowel for I saw anvil or house brand. If you like it get a magnesium or level 5 anodized aluminum. The more you spend on a trowel they get thinner and more flexible which is a good thing. I don't drop mud even on comerical short pile carpet for some reason the more expensive tools materials/coatings make it harder to drop mud. Give it a try for $30 or less. One investment that helped me alot is the hawkmate it screws onto the handle and holds to tools on the bottom knives or trowels doesn't matter. Hawkmate Marshalltown made in usa.
@@MattHmm-rq6dn 👍👍
I will add I have new people that can't drywall worth a darn once they go hawk they suddenly don't suck. It also made drywall more bareable for me as I hate finishing. In my head "it's almost done only a little longer..."
@@MattHmm-rq6dn I don’t mind hanging and putting the mud on, but I don’t care for the sanding. Mostly because I’m in finished spaces so it’s a whole ordeal.
I’d like to know how you like the Vevor skimming blade and if you decide to round the corners like the level 5.
I’ve use it once so far and it was good for the price.. so far. I will likely round the corners, I haven’t yet.
I’m from Wisconsin so we’ve had Menards for forever. They don’t have the greatest tools always but they do carry some Knipex, Bosch and have some good value in some of their master force brand tools. About 8- 10 years ago I bought on clearance for about $50 together a 6’ and 8’ masterforce levels they are gray and green and said made in Germany but the extrusion and hand holes looked really familiar, not much info on them but apparently they were made by stabila.
I hope to be able to spend a little more time there next week just to get a feel for what I can get there. I will have to check the level aisle 👍
I use level 5 .5mm curved trowels myself and I've seen how much skimming blades are. As someone that dislikes drywall that would be something I'd consider cheating out of for sure. Even if you got the level 5 blade seprate and put that vevor part on it I'd be cheaper. That vevor is a import company that's has one usa address to take letters for lawsuits. There only rebrands so you defently gamble with this but for a odd item sure why not.
I’ve seen several of their tools in videos, to me they are like a Harbor Freight. There are some of their tools I might buy if it is a random use case.
I only like drywall in spurts. I don’t like doing a lot of it at a time.
If you want to find out more about that company den of tools has a great video on it. Even fact checked it a little it's true 👍
I can’t find 32501 hd anywhere not Lowe’s Amazon or even Klein any ideas ?
I think it’s only available at Lowe’s… I couldn’t find it online either when looking for a link.
Do you think that straight edge could be used as a jig, like when install dog ear fence panels?
I’m not sure, you talking about using it to run your saw against?
@@MORGANSMaintenance No. Because it has that lip, it looks like you can rest it on top of the panels as you install new panels to keep them aligned instead of using string. I'm thinking of fencing bump board.
@@snufflesdarkness oh… got you.
The inside of the lip is kinda curved for your fingers, so I don’t think it would rest real well on the edge of a board. It’s more for setting flat. Not saying it won’t work for that, just not as well if that lip was flat instead of curved
All these girls running around talking about girl math, let’s talk about blue collar math. M12 tool for $109 with a $80 battery I was going to buy anyways so I paid $30 for it
That's Exactly Right... I mean I couldn't afford not to buy it 👍👍
What lawnmower do you have?
It’s a Hustler… I don’t remember the model number, it’s an older one.
M12 Detail sander?
Ding.. Ding 👍👍.. well the sander with the triangle head, if that’s the detail one
That's it, I got one this week too
Man-nards is awesome for deals. But their tool section is not the best.
Yeah I didn’t see many tools that were “my style”.
They do have a good wood selection
The one I grew up near had a outdoor lumber yard with purple hart 💜 curly maple all the good stuff. There was even 4 levels of subfloor chip sandy rainforest walnut 😆
Better find a Chinese supplier, the price they offer will surprise you
A Chinese supplier for what?
@@MORGANSMaintenance Tools, Lot manufacturers here, even I can't believe their price, by the way, I'm a Chinese😂

@@MORGANSMaintenance Find your shop on Google map, very nice
Stop using wd40 as a lubricant. Use a proper oil.
I normally just use my Houdini because I always have it.. but decided to try this in pen form.
What do you use?
"They" (all the internet tool tools) ALL use SuperLube™ because the SnapOn man uses it. Farmers & regular folk just use any bottle with oil written on the side.
@@MORGANSMaintenance any generic silicone oil should be fine. lots of brands make it in pen forms with little needle applicators. and a lot of oils designed for guns work well too. the problem with WD40 is it can melt things due to the solvents, and the product itself evaporates pretty quick so will need reapplication pretty frequently.
