  1.  @blaXkgh0st  there's some pretty good glue out there. For what these work gloves cost it is worth the investment. You can save a beat pair of gloves to cut bits off to glue onto what's falling apart on another pair. Look at it as an arts and crafts project. Maybe Project Farm can test different kinds of contact adhesive for us?

  2. Work gloves are not a critical safety device. They are just for added protection.

  3.  @indrajeetroy6464  a lot of the price associated with hazardous related devices is built in litigation costs. Half of what you pay for a ladder goes to lawyers for instance.

  5. Sounds like you need to learn how to stitch heavy materials to me. Or maybe get some Shoe Goo or something? The classic fix is a wrap of duck tape. Does degrade grip. Friction tape perhaps? Cloth tape.

  9. Cotton dot gloves are OK if it is hot out and you need to wear gloves.

  10. Milwaukee are patent trolls. I cannot support that kind of reprehensible behavior in a corporation. They are owned by a Hong Kong conglomerate named TTI now.

  11.  @huohization  it is easy enough to find online. They patented the use of lithium ion batteries in cordless tools. They basically gamed the patent system. Because they did not invent anything. They simply filed the paperwork. Just because something is broken does not give everyone moral license to exploit it.

  12.  @huohization  they did not invent lithium ion batteries. Putting a lithium ion battery in a cordless tool is not expensive research or groundbreaking inventing. Although thinking you can charge everyone else that does it is rather innovative thievery.

  14. The best hand saw is the one you know how to sharpen yourself. Because a lot of saws do not come sharp. They only come with formed teeth. Manufacturers skip the sharpening step to pass the savings onto consumers. All saws get dull in use.

  18.  @f.k.b.16  it was certainly eye opening. I knew there were some fancy work gloves out there but never really looked at them too closely myself. For me full grain leather is about as fancy as I get. I never owned anything that looked like a prop from a Transformers movie. I go more for the western aesthetic.

  19.  @f.k.b.16  that's weird. I never had that happen with plain leather work gloves. They perform about how I'd expect them to. Can wear holes in them eventually. I would not call it quickly though.

  20. Those are some expensive work gloves, except for the dot ones. It depends what you're doing which gloves are the best. For crap work that's not too wet I use the split grain cuffs. For the highfalutin work I wear full grain. For real sloppy jobs coated gloves are best.

  24. The USA is a post industrial consumer manufacturing nation. Which is to say commodity products are not made here. But if you want an ABM system we may be able to talk.
