I appreciate all the good info here. I hope to mod some lights of my own eventually.
Thanks,
Brawny
How was your trip?
Bumpy but otherwise pretty uneventful
Welcome to BLF
Good luck in your future modding exploits.
It's nice to see you, Brawny!
I love your paper towels, too!
Welcome aboard, Brawny!

Welcome!
Welcome. Smart of you to go for the good stuff right away and save buying a lot of junk you won’t use in the future.
Oh, I’ve bought plenty of junk. I’m a “spend my money at harbor freight before I realize I should have put it on quality in the first place” type of guy.
With that being said, there is a place for harbor freight. You just got to know when it pays and when it doesn’t.
I have noticed an uptick in Harbor Freight quality since the early years. And don’t get me wrong, there are some very good budget lights. All of mine are what I would consider budget lights. $50 tops pretty much. I just have a collection of seldom used lights I wish I had held off on.
Some are better some are worse. Their drill presses used to be pretty nice when they came out of Taiwan. I think the quality has gone down on them.
Yeah, I have one sitting on the bench my son managed to bend the arbor when he was a kid.
The oscillating multi tool is great for the price and I wonder how I ever lived with out one.
