Talk about feeling the power. Last week, I spent a wonderful and inspiring day with the folks from
Craftsman and a fabulous, patient crew of instructors who taught me new terms, skills and technology.
They really pumped up my DIY mojo and I look forward to tackling projects at
Casa de Renovation. After lunch, the team showed us a variety of new/up and coming
Nextec power hand tools, and I'll be damned if I couldn't put each of those things to work the minute I got them home. #gadgetlust
No, the bloggers did not receive the whole line, but I do have two goodies heading my way that will likely show up in some form at
Reluctant Renovator. But before I think too much about building up our workshop, we have to tear down the walls that surround it in order to locate the foundation crack. :-/
Check out a few highlights:
 |
| @MissLori swears she didn't purposely dress to match the goody bag. |

| Holly simultaneously rocks a skirt, legwarmers and a band saw. #awesome |
 |
| I rock the double chin and the band saw. |

@RedneckMommy tackles the most challenging task of the day.
Disclosure: I was not required to post about this event. All opinions are my own. I received a wrench-like Craftsman bottle opener, a Craftsman rain poncho, a tin of Garrett's popcorn(!), a box of Frango mints(!) and a few other items in addition to lunch and an ogre sword which, in case you missed it, I MADE MYSELF, albeit with Craftsman's tools and supplies. |
