I know its safety use of it. Will check into some safety goggles if I dont have any but I think I have the safety goggles that came with my stihl weedeater still. Probably gonna use it outside anyways.

As cheap as safety goggles or glasses are, no reason you can't pick up another pair or 2. I have many I have acquired over the years. Some are Amber lenses that brighten what your working on, Green that dim, and of course clear. I do even have some cheap ass HF ones I got for a $1. That is something I don't mind having just laying all around the garage in differant places. They are much more likely to get used if they are just so damn handy they about jump on your face.

^^^That's almost exactly what I have :waytogo: I think I bought mine for the same reason (easy on the wallet:D). Good buy, Dave! As has been stated, when not using it every day might as well go with what is most economical :)

This one has more amps than the milwaukee but didnt have the carrying case with it like the milwaukee had with it. I want a carrying case for it then I make one of 1x4's and plywood.

Might be able to pick up a cheap tool bag for it, that's what I've been doing a lot of lately, putting things in tool bags. Lowe's had a special deal, 3 tool bags for $15 just about the right size for things like that. Also came with a magic marker and a place on the bag to write what the contents are. Couldn't pass that up yesterday lol.

Yea, Cool. The wife gave 2 piece tool bag set from craftsman but all my painting and drywall tools filled them up.
