As I've mentioned in other videos you've uploaded, my wife and I recently bought a house - brick with concrete basement walls. Even the interior upstairs walls are stucco on wire mesh on drywall. Hence, I quickly realized that an impact driver was going to be my best friend. After a few fails and re-buys of bits, I've found that milwaukee and diablo both became my go-to. They're not only fast, but I've been able to keep using the same bit for hole after hole without worrying about dulling. They're more expensive, yeah, but I get more durability from them. Thanks again for uploading!

I like that you did a test on an old piece of concrete. As you saw that makes a huge difference! I work with precast concrete and we have different mixes to end up with different strengths, but we typically don't exceed a 28-day strength of 7,000 psi.

Back when I worked at the big orange box, I had no problem recommending Diablo's products across the board. They were always durable, always performed solidly, and were a good value in my opinion, and I'm glad to see your testing backs up my feelings. There may be better, but usually not DRAMATICALLY better.

In my experience Diablo perform very well for 'consumer' grade tools, however some bits they sell are creeping up near 'construction' grade price, where you may be better off paying a little extra for a heavy duty tool or bit which will last significantly longer.

@noahmercy-mann4323 3 жыл бұрын

@@masondegaulle5731 most of the folks coming in to the big box store who weren't sure what they wanted/needed were DIY-types doing a project or two, and wanting to get the most for their money. Diablo was a great fit for them, because despite not being the most expensive, they never came back disappointed.

I was walking through the automotive section at Walmart yesterday and thought of Project Farm when I saw the fuses. I wonder if there is a way to test fuses? Maybe to see if they pop at the advertised amperage, compare brands as such etc. Maybe you can come up with some kind of interesting test/shoot-out for them. Also ratchet straps maybe?

@ProjectFarm 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the video idea.

@Monkeh616 3 жыл бұрын

Fuses don't just pop at a defined value - they _hold_ at the specified value and open somewhere in a fairly wide time range depending on the degree of overcurrent. Ambient conditions have a significant impact on this. Testing this is of course possible but very involved. Just buy reputable fuses..

A great comparison would be the Irwin masonry bit with other drill bit types, the tile drill bit and the circular diamond drill bit. When standing in the store starting at the different bits, I haven't a clue. I've tried all three types but didn't have the money or the time to try every brand of every type. The circular diamond bit is the one that I used last time, but I still used up the bit after just three holes. Thanks for all your great videos!

The wrench's ratcheting mechanism is also another failure point before the socket or wrench metal physically breaks.

Testing was great! My only recommendation if you revisit masonry drilling in the future would be to include Hilti bits. Hilti caters to the pro contractor/construction industry, and they specially develop a lot of products for masonary/concrete applications. The average consumer can buy Hilti at Home Depot (idk availability at Lowe’s or Ace Hardware). Hope this helps, and keep up the fantastic work!
