    Got tired of dull drill bits so now I carry these Titanium nitride bits in the old $10 black oxide case in my tool bag.

    Check out these wirenuts - from puny thermostat wires to three number twelves all in one wirenut. Don't need to worry about orange, yellow and red so much anymore but still need a few of each. Anything that let's me carry less in Van or tool bag gets my attention.

    I have the strippers... nice tool!

    I buy drill bits at Harbor Freight... as my helpers force them too much and break them.

    On the wire nuts...
    I would not use a 'big' wirenut for thermostat wires...
    However if it is rated for 14/12/10 wire... (up to 2x #10)... then that would work for me.

    Still like the blue and orange for Tstat wires

    I think they are Kleins...
    Which is part of the price issue...
