July 2007 Monthly Roundup for Tool Snob

Aside from the constant battle with over-heating, we had a good month here at Tool Snob. First and foremost, we were completely impressed with Wagner's Painteater, a total monster of a tool when it comes to the awful task of paint scraping. Secondly, we reviewed and gave away Ridgid's new 18 Volt Li-Ion Drill. And lastly, we rooted around trying to give you all the heads up on new and otherwise interesting tools and tool-related things.

Stay tuned for the month of August. Very soon we'll be posting a review of Ace Sensations Paint, Husky's new 5-in-1 Drywall Tool, Grizzly's $25 Brad Gun, and Dremel's 75th Anniversary Rotary Tool. August should be a lot of fun around here.
