I actually did just replace all my tools with new ones, mostly because they looked nicer. Look up "hoto tools".

I'm too rough on my tools to invest in super modern stuff like this. Nice looking kit tho.

uhhhh...yeah....sooo, like, I've been slowly collecting the entire DeWalt collection. Partly due to the rugged Canadian roots of the line...the yellow and black stands out for sure. Build like the Bees! I say...

Funny for the "love wrench" [don't wanna guess what else it was meant for in the love dept...] to show up with the red colours ... Milwaukee will already have filed for a design patent infringement by the time I type this...wonder how all that goes on this timeline since designers "steal" from each other all the time - in this hyper brand world how do they stay fresh...oh by "roids" level brand-mashing...

[ please sir may I be tuned up on the GPT store stuff ::sparkle heart:: ]]

Best 'O 2024 to yas !!

I'm a mostly rigid guy myself, but i do welcome more interesting colours to the tool spectrum. I'll ping you about GPT stuff.

It's an interesting departure from the "Fat Max / Fubar" Utility (Wrecking/ demolition.) tool line from the same brand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3Ysy1O71lY&ab_channel=BigRockSupply

Construction tradespeeps work the spectrum of delicate craftmanship and cathartic demolition.

You should watch the other 4 ads, potty training, house piñata, piano wrecking and armoire destruction. Cathartic demolition could be an interesting design fiction service / product oriented to focus agression in civilized ways!

BTW, I wasn't a big fan of Black & Decker tools until they radically changed their design language and logo. It seems some of their forms and colors look like NASA inspired.
