Description
I was working on a shelf project yesterday around 3pm when my Makita 18V drill kit slipped from my belt and I can't find it now. It's teal with a black grip and a 1/2-inch chuck, and I had two 2.0Ah batteries in a gray hard-shell case. One battery has a small red sticker with the initials JM, and the case has a tiny crack on the lid. I really need it back—it's my go-to tool for weekend projects, and I'd be grateful to get it back if someone picked it up near Pioneer Park at the intersection of 2nd Ave and Cushman St in Fairbanks.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
