    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    Could be, it does seem popular and is getting rave reviews for the most part. Only complaint is missing convenience features like rafter hooks, adjustable shoe, etc.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Hilti is what the tool snobs and elitists usually rattle off as the brand for pros lol. The service is nice. Tools are good. Price is insane.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Maybe heavy construction means something different to you. The hundreds of sites I've been on red is a pretty common color, especially with electrical, plumbing, and HVAC guys. They don't usually look pretty so I'd hazard a guess they last pretty long. I've got enough red at work to know...

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Looking forward to putting a 9.0 battery on my grinder and Sawzall but definitely not looking forward to the $250 CAD the crooks want for them. Insane pricing on M18 batteries these days.

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    FlexVolt is in stores now. Checked out the line at HD last weekend. The mitre saw is especially impressive. Or maybe you ordered something from CPO to get a free tool, in which case, yes, you're hooped.

    Milwaukee M18 & M12 Rapid Charge Station

    Nice video woodstockva, I appreciate the size comparison. It's actually a fair amount larger than I anticipated!

    Milwaukee M18 vs. M28 portaband

    http://www.milwaukeetool.com/power-tools/cordless/2729-22. They claim it cuts faster than corded. As per usual for their marketing they don't specifically point out their benchmark but I would think it's same to assume it's the model it's designed after. If it's like their claim for cordless...

    General observations about brushed vs brushless tools

    If we compare Ford's fuel economy half of their power/economy balance to Milwaukee's runtime, I would say Ford failed but Milwaukee succeeded. I do agree that they are both trying to do more with less. 2) I would say that the Fuel 7.25 seems to be a much better saw than the 6.5" based on what...

    Milwaukee M18 vs. M28 portaband

    According to Milwaukee's PR the Fuel shares over 90% of the corded model's parts, and is an all-metal sealed direct drive. I would imagine it's lighter than the 28v solution as well. Fuel stuff hasn't let me down yet, I would stick with the M18, especially with 5.0 batteries out now, and if...
