Japanese construction tool company Makita has launched a tough-guy radio, aimed at adventurers and, I guess, builders. You can throw anything at it – paint, a box of screws – and it will even work in humid conditions. Measurements in inches are 11 x 6.5 x 12 and you will probably need a bicep measurement of at least 25″ as it weighs in at almost 10 lb.
