10 Innovative Tools from Brands You Might Not Recognize
Pro Tool Reviews: There’s a reason popular brands are so, well, popular. They’re often better quality, higher performing, more innovative, offer a better value, or a combination. But they all had to start somewhere, and some cool products are available from smaller brands that you might not have heard of before.

These products were so very interesting to read about in this very interesting article. I understand that the point of the article was to not recognize any of the brands, but I really didn’t recognize any of the brands. I mean I recognized some of the tools like the Milwaukee circular saw, but I had never seen the “zero gravity” blade that they were advertising and showing. Which I have a lot of questions about this “zero gravity” blade because news flash we are on Earth and you know physics exists so like it has gravity and so I am very curious why they call it “zero gravity.” I was also interested to see products on this list other than power tools. It was cool to see like a lantern and the crocodile cloth and the storage shelves on this list because they are tools for sure, just not power tools.
Even though I’m not someone who regularly uses tools in a shop, it’s still very exciting to see the innovations that can help create efficient and safer work. It’s funny how such a simple thing such as cut out in a saw, can improve efficiency. The storage cabinet that follows the blade was more interesting to me, as it reminded me greatly of a cabinet in my high school in our music library. It’s an extremely space efficient storage method, so I’m surprised it hasn’t been popular before. The new welding helmet displayed in the article is also very interesting, since you think a lightweight helmet would be crucial to the long projects some welders have to do. The caulk plug however I don’t quite understand the necessity for, if a screw works just as well. But since I’m not someone who uses caulk often enough, I’ll leave that one to the experts. most of the rest of the tools were above my knowledge level, but I can still appreciate the effort being made to make people's lives in a shop a little bit easier and safer. The crocodile cloths however, I could totally see being super popular.
I always think it is so interesting to see what the latest innovation is in today's world. The Skateplate is very interesting to me. It made me wish I had access to one this past summer, when I was building sets with only a circular saw or a chop saw. How many times I wished I had a table saw was unreal, although it made me incredibly proficient with a circular saw, so I am not complaining all that much, even though it was a pain. The Zero gravity blade was also an interesting innovation, which I imagine is very useful for a circular saw. It would be nice to have more time between charges and would increase productivity. Overall, I really enjoy seeing the latest innovations in the field and it is information that I will file away and keep for another day, when it will likely come in handy.
