Bad ass milwaukee should take some notes….. F the one key this is what they should come out with but for real it looks like a classic American built milwaukee tool lol.

Comp your crazy man, I love it. That thing looks sharp. People are going to walk in to your shop and think Milwaukee actually made all of these things. People are going to be really disappointed when they find out they can’t buy a Sandzall!

ya just can paint I see cheap….I usually use it to spray poly top coats on wood tables, furniture ect ect it beats using a foam brush especially on large area’s ………not really a painter by any stretch…..

Comp, you give Milwaukee too much credit… You need to start labeling your tools as the compzalls!

thanks guys, I finished it now …….
Wow. Comp is a Milwaukee snob!!!!!! Looks friggin’ awesome dude!
How’d you make the sandzall decal? Is is a metal stamp or vinyl?
That looks fantastic , you need to post that on Milwaukee’s Facebook page! Sears might get mad though….

Hahahaha that’s awesome Comp! Look absolutely fantastic and that kind of detail is really quite beautiful. What do use to do that type of work?
Wow Comp56, your restoration skills are sick. Nice work.

that is somewhat funny see I suffer from ATD syndrome (Attention To Detail) from my hot rod restoring days…….I have done things so insignificant that it took almost 2 years before someone noticed but when they did, it was great …..
Very very cool
