...or making lemonade out of lemons. But then what else would you make lemonade from?
Anyhoo. In my haste in packing to move last week, I foolishly packed away - deeper than I care to dig - my cordless drivers. So I am in HD and look at the new drivers with Li-on batteries. Mind you, I still have my 12V Makitas from ~15 years ago! So I was surprised at the choices!
I came home with a DeWalt 12V driver kit. Driver, 2 batteries, charger, and case. I like it. It is light, small, and plenty powerful. It even has LED lights in the nose, which turned out to be very handy while scrunched in an RV closet trying to fasten a plastic shelf to the wall. I especially appreciate how light it is. And well balanced. My arthritic hands are happy. $119. I can live with that.
And the camera batteries are dead. I am caught without spares. So for your picture, visit your nearby HD.
As for the lemonade analogy, any excuse for a new toy!
