    How to get started with Milwaukee M18?

    Well all, thank you so much for your help! I ended up buying the Brad nailer and a battery set from seemingly reliable sellers on ebay, and I am about $400 in on the system. I really just didn't want to buy new drills when my current ones work so well. I am looing forward to playing around...

    How to get started with Milwaukee M18?

    The two groups of tools are almost identical exceprlt for the freebies which I have a limited selection to choose from and the battery sizes which are driven by the kits that I can't change sadly. As for the 3/8 discussion, I asked a while ago and was recommended the mid torque for...

    How to get started with Milwaukee M18?

    The $300 Brad nailer I need to buy disagrees with you, but I see your point. 😂😂😂 I am perusing the home Depot Black Friday catalogue. I am looking at buying the battery and drill packages and then adding on some bare tools to that.

    So, I hane noticed my Porter cable 20V tools have started dying. In the past year my jigsaw, circular saw, and now 18 gauge nailer have all given up the ghost. This is a little under half of the tools I own for the system. The drills and drivers still seem rock solid, but unfortunately other...
