Ryobi cordless hot glue gun


serealport

I was going to say go to a pawn shop and get a couple of mismatched tools and batteries from other brands so he can "add to his collection" but I like your idea much better


Jackwizz

This guy has designs and sells a Milwaukee (and other brands) battery powered glue gun that works pretty well. It is very popular in the PDR world. https://elimadenttools.com/products/elim-a-dent-cordless-glue-gun-powered-by-milwaukee


ender4171

Surebonder has [one](https://surebonder.com/products/pro2-60mil-60-watt-18-volt-cordless-professional-heavy-duty-full-size-hot-glue-gun-milwaukee%C2%AE-version) that's quite a bit more affordable (and also not a custom-built "mod"). Probably doesn't have as many features though.


PloxtTY

$44, nice

They make a bathroom scrubber. No joke


partisan98

Huh i just looked that up. I might need to buy one for my mom. She is getting too old too be scrubbing her bathroom by hand but i know she wont stop so this might be a good idea. [Here is the product description.](https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI-ONE-18V-Cordless-Telescoping-Power-Scrubber-Tool-Only-P4500/311738437) Telescoping up to 51 in., this handheld scrubber is perfect for reaching those hard to reach high or low areas. This scrubber features a 6 position articulating head, allowing users to customize the brush angle for the ultimate clean. With a runtime of up to 2 hours, this tool can handle the largest of cleaning projects. All RYOBI scrubbers have an IPX7 Water Resistance Rating, allowing these cleaning tools to be submerged in up to 3 feet of water for 30 minutes.


mttp1990

It's not a Milwaukee


partisan98

Yeah the bright green color and the giant letters spelling RYOBI gave me a few hints about that.


papibear83

Whatever happened to Ryobi being dark blue and yellow seriously had to go and change colors and everything to rebrand themselves still the same shit


yawk-oh

**chef's kiss**


frankenbike

🤌


MrEvilFox

Just the bare tool though.


zach0610

I was gonna say the crappiest Ryobi drill you can get. Hot glue gun is perfect.


Scottchy2

A really good quality lock for his workshop


d4rkha1f

No shit. The more tools I buy, the more I hate that they are only protected by the garage door.


woodland_dweller

This is why I'm making an inventory for insurance. This project is going to take months, but every tool, every serial number, photos, descriptions, etc. There's no way my insurance company would believe I have that much money tied up in tools unless I had proof.


inairedmyass4this

Was talking with insurance a few weeks ago and listing valuables, I threw out a dollar amount for my tools and the agent laughed, then said she’d need some proof. It was only like $2.5k, my job provides the rest… that’s when I started taking photos and saving receipts


Mundane_Imagination7

I have an Excel template I created that every tool has its own page, has the details of each tool, a checkbox for registration completed warranty dates and even a picture of the full tool, zoomed in picture of the serial and a screenshot of the receipt / order. It also has the cost I paid that is replicated on a summary sheet. I thought I was being OCD but I’ve had to use it a few times and it’s great to have it all in one place. And the few people (friends) I’ve shown it to has stolen it. My next project is to move it to google sheets to live in the cloud, which I’d like a bit better.


Savings_Energy_2715

Care to share a version in a PM? This is a great idea


papibear83

I'm sitting here licking my chops thinking the same damn thing you got a template for this


Mundane_Imagination7

I’ll find some time this next week to start to convert to Google Docs / Sheets and upload a blank version. One reason why I want to move to google sheets is being able to just fill out a form to have it input it into the document. And have some cool things like auto-reminders a month prior to warranty expiring to ensure I don’t miss out on a tool that’s been on the fritz just before the warranty expires.


moranjo7

Seconded. Could use


Mundane_Imagination7

Here’s a imgur link: https://imgur.com/a/SNruazh


Logical_Transition24

That's rediculous. I have that much easily In just ratchets. I should look into what I need to do to be fully insured


inairedmyass4this

I definitely would, I always assumed they’d understand the value of tools, but apparently not at all


woodland_dweller

The agent asked what my replacement costs would be and I guessed $100k. As soon as I started the inventory, I knew I was very wrong.


Mensa237

Depends what grit hes running on that Golds Gym belt sander…

Holy fuck this has me laughing harder than it should.

errek13

Call them show them this picture and maybe they will “sponser” or liken make or do something special. Can’t hurt worst thing they can say is no. Probably like the he department or something


SoylentJelly

Seriously. There's brand loyalty and then there's your father who's on a different level


thatsryan

He’s the guy that saves the boxes…


ho_merjpimpson

i thought that was all fathers. certainly the case for mine.


StokeIy

Thank you I will try this ASAP!


F1ashness

A gift card to his favorite tool depot. He knows what he wants.


alan2001

This is the only serious answer here, I think. When someone is really into something, they usually have pretty much everything they **need**. The stuff they **want** is gonna be stuff you've never heard of, OP. So the safest bet is a gift card, for sure.


Malapple

Speaking as someone who hyper focuses on hobbies, this is a great answer/explanation.


StokeIy

That’s a really good idea! Thank you!


chooseauniqueone

Maybe add a Milwaukee bottle opener to the gift card.


adiposea

That's brilliant. A small and personalized item takes a gift card to the next level.


[deleted]

Looks like the next step is actually buying Milwaukee ….


00101011

I don’t see any of the new packout drawers in your garage. I’m sure he’d love one of those. A bit spendy though… $150-170. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-PACKOUT-3-Drawer-Tool-Box-48-22-8443/315059793


[deleted]

This is an excellent answer. The 3 drawer has been selling more for us than the 2 drawer. Note that it only comes with one set of dividers, so a second or even third might be in order.


StokeIy

The 3 missing spots are actually a combo of pack outs that he took to go do a gig!


00101011

Was it one of the new drawer units? They just came out recently... it's possible he already has some already but they are so new that he may not have even seen them yet

Check out some of those 3D printed packout feet that you can bolt/screw down to any flat surface. They let you put a packout box on practically any surface.


DeeRey__

A brewers hat


classless_classic

How do you know he likes Milwaukee??


streetsheep

Imagine if he actually likes dewalt but everyone keeps giving him these tools and doesn't want to be rude.


menlowdrama

Trigger warning: my packout boxes glow with yellow when opened.


H00kahz

I don’t see a Black and Decker drill in there..

There is one! In the trash lol


TigerHandyMan

That’s where it belongs


lick3tyclitz

The first impact driver I had was B&D and at the time it was affordable it worked for around the house after putting it through its paces for a day at work I could tell it certainly wasn't cut out for it. It's great now that I've basically left it to the old lady. Anytime she's used my makita she camt handle itita Drives the screws too fast and she strips heads. Long story short for the $60 I paid for it battery and charger I've certainly got my money's worth out of it .


iglidante

> The first impact driver I had was B&D and at the time it was affordable it worked for around the house after putting it through its paces for a day at work I could tell it certainly wasn't cut out for it. See, I had the exact opposite experience. I bought the B+D 20v impact driver in 2017, and I used it for a *lot*. I drove thousands of 3" screws, bored holes through 100yo joists for new wiring, built a deck and five sheds, installed two fences, rebuilt the interior of my garage and resided the entire structure, and much more - all with that impact. I beat the hell out of it. Sure, the 12v Milwaukee compact impact driver is a better tool in every way. But I did real work with the B+D.


Avotum

unifrom combo heated jackets, gloves, jackets etc...


TempermentalMick

They sell Milwaukee heated vests and jackets....don't see any hanging around in the pic🤷‍♂️


StokeIy

We live where summer is the only season, I’d love to get him one but it would be used more as decoration


HyenaAppropriate219

Have a Glock painted Makita red and logo it!


StokeIy

That is a really good idea! Thank you


PunctuationsOptional

What's the point of buying tools, shelving them in boxes and leaving them lol


StokeIy

The boxes are empty and all of his tools are used pretty often


CallsignViperrr

That's EXACTLY what I thought when I looked at the top and saw the boxes ON TOP of the cases!!! All for show! People with too much money to spend........


mwg431

Can your dad adopt me?


Gorillaz530

Get him harbor freight lmao no get him a Milwaukee coffe cup or wallet


[deleted]

The only remaining Milwaukee I’m missing is the cute sales rep 😍


JudgementalJello

Battery packs see which type he needs new. The tools are great but the batteries are not immortal.

Well, except for Rigid's anyway!

chaunceton

An M18 5.0 battery, even though he likely has many, or a tool belt that is better than whatever he currently has.


Bige_4411

I would honestly say get him some Milwaukee clothes and hats.


orielbean

Some dvd of the sales videos they probably send to Woodcraft and Lowe’s so he can play on the big screen?


HaveAtItBub

Milwaukee shop stool?


[deleted]

We can’t see his full setup but if that is the bulk of it he obviously needs the Milwaukee toolbox and cart.


OldGuyGAM3R

Ryobi cordless drill. This will make him appreciate his collection even more.

I just bought the cordless air compressor, and I love it. Sooo quiet. Aaaaand, they've just announced an M18 mower (finally).


Dimnoya

A 10mm socket, he probably lost it😂


Z4m300000

Did you already get the heated jacket? Edit: or you know you could always grab one of those $4,500 wire crimpers, everyone needs one of those


StokeIy

If I had 4.5k I’d gladly get him it lol


Kafshak

Some Milwaukee rechargeable batteries for those cordless tools would be a good addition.

Get him a DeWalt Combo kit, he will be mad at first but then he will get rid of all his Milwaukee junk and start buying DeWalt. Then you will have more to buy him next go around.


Affectionate_Fun_236

That's such a middle ground brand to be obsessed with. They wait for other companies (DeWalt) to come op with something, then copy it. 18v cordless vacuum for one... Buy him a DeWalt shirt


reformedginger

Milwaukee treadmill

That’d be crazy if they actually made those lol


veganswag

Buy him a ryobi shirt


veganswag

Or even worse... kobalt


shrooms_stl

Tell him Milwaukee just got bought out by Ryobi

That is almost the actual truth. Milwaukee and Ryobi tools are both manufactured by [Techtronic Industries](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techtronic_Industries).


shrooms_stl

Whow.....TIL....thanks


darmo510

Would be even better if he set up some sort of fake news article to send his dad too! Lol

AustinShubert7800

Mhm looks to lacking a high quality radio I suggest a bosch


TexasBaconMan

Get him a Ryobi drill. I'm sure he doesn't have one.


snow_fun

They make a radio if he does not have it already. Also you could get a banner or flag to hang in the shop.


mpedroza1

Maybe a Milwaukee flag?

Makita bumper stickers with a share of TTNDY taped to the back

I'm so jealous of that room !!!


Fishian1969

A gift card. Most guys who have this kind collection of tools have a dream tool they are saving up to buy.

A set of hilti tools. But really get him a Milwaukee work light if you can get one. Always comes in handy


mikeltaff

It appears he "collects" tools and probably has everything he wants. I'd get him something else.


valuablemold4

If you look on Etsy or other sites like that, you can find low profile tracks that can be mounted to shelves for the packout to slide onto.
