Makita Tools BHX2500CA 24.5cc 145 MPH MM4 4-Stroke Gas Cordless Leaf Blower

I had used the original version a few time on different job sites but I really wanted the sheetmaster for my home use. As soon as it arrived, and it arrives assembled, I took it out and started to experiment with it. I already knew you could put a piece of 2x4 into it, clamp it down and lift the whole unit up. Its almost indestructible really. I wanted to know how much finesse it had. First I started with a piece of 2 inch pvc pipe and really tried to crush it, it didn't work, but I could still lift the whole unit by the pipe! Next I switched to a beer bottle, and it didn't break the bottle either. After that, I used my wife's vase..don't tell her. The vase is a weird shape, kind of a tear drop clear glass. I knew it would bread so I didn't try, but it did hold it tightly enough to suite my taste. Next I tried the cat...just kidding. All and all its a great helper/vise/bench to sit on/bike stand/whatever else you can think of to need it for. I really think Rockwell need to do some other videos of this thing for their website focusing on the hobbiest uses. It really is WAY more then just a tool. Oh and I used it to hold my rifle while I disassembled it and put it back together. I rated the unit as having a "comfort level" of average, just because I have there is no other single tool to compare it to. Its awesome, get one or two!
