Woodworking projects require the right tools.
For example, if you’re installing base board molding or casings around doors/windows having a nailer can save you a ton of time.
Unfortunately you’d have to buy a gun and air compressor.
Ryobi’s new Air Strike Nailers solve that issue.
I’m not saying they’re cheap, but the convenience could be worth it.
Carrying a compressor, hose, and set of brad nailers can get tiring and a bit dangerous.
The Air Nailers are powered by an 18 Volt battery and you get the following
-18-gauge brad nailer that drives 5/8” to 2” brad nails
-16-gauge finish nailer that drives 3/4” to 2 1/2” finish nails
-1 18V Lithium-ion battery and a dual chemistry charger
The only thing missing is a bag, really wish they provided one!

Do you need to learn how to unclog your kitchen sink?
No problem, all you need is a hand auger and detective skills.
Most clogs in kitchen sinks are from the p-trap being obstructed.
Two slip nuts hold the p-trap to the sink drain and wall pipe. Turn those slip nuts counterclockwise to remove them and pull the p-trap down into a bucket. Tap the trap on the buck to remove the clog.
If this isn’t the problem you can use a hand auger to clear out the wall pipe. Feed the hand auger down into the wall pipe until you hit the clog. Lock the auger in place and spin the auger clockwise. Then pull the auger from the wall along with the clog.
I hope these tips help you unclog your kitchen sink and save the call to a plumber.
IMO the Ridgid hand auger is awesome and you should check it out
