Cordless Tool Trivia

Sure. I don't know the answer to this question, but I'll look it up.

 

Which platform (brand and voltage) has the largest selection of saws, and how many? By this i mean circs, jigs, recip, band, chain etc ...

 

Please note that I am asking about unique saws. So a different handled/form saw is OK, but multiples of the same sort of saw in brushed, 2nd gen and BL etc don't count.

 

Example: The M18 line would have two recip saws only (hackzall type and sawzall type).

Example 2: Bosch's 18V barrel-grip jigsaw and d-handle grip jigsaw count as 2.

Example 3: Different size blades count as multiples.

Makita 18V. I'm not sure I can name all of them but here goes:

 

- Full sized recip

- One hand recip (brushed) with dual trigger

- Subcompact recip

- Circular saw 6.5inch

- Rear handle circular saw

- Metal cutting saw

- Band saw???do they have one

- Barrell grip jigsaw

- D handle jigsaw

 

EDIT: Total of 9 saws in 18V

DeWalt has at least the 

 

 

Flexvolt platform:

12" sliding miter

12" non sliding miter

Table saw

Track saw

Chain saw

Rear handle circ

7 1/4" sidewinder circ

Recip saw

So that's only 8 if you count that as a separate platform.

 

 

20v Max:

Chainsaw

7 1/4" circular saw

Compact recip

Full size recip

6 1/2" circular saw

Metal 5 1/2" circular saw

Deep cut portaband

Standard portaband

Jig saw

7 1/4" miter saw

11 if you count that separate

Milwaukee M18 has 10 by my count, the two bandsaws have different cut capacities so they both count. 3 circ sizes (5-3/8, 6-1/2, 7-1/4), 2 miters (7-1/4, 10), hackzall, Sawzall, and jigsaw.

 

I thought they had more but was thinking of the corded metal cutting circ which I think is 6-1/2.

Cut out saw ( Gyproc )DSD180

Multitool DTM ( does it count as a saw ? )

Sliding Mitre saw DLS110

Chop saw DLS600

One Handed chainsaw

Full size chainsaw

CXT glass/tilesaw 

Plunge saw DSP

 

That's 17 if the Multitool counts

I don't count the multi-tool (or the drywall cutter personally, but meh whatever).

 

I believe the tilesaw only comes in 12V. So by might count you're up to 14. 

 

My answer was Makita with 17 (add their 18x2 7-1/4" circ saw,  their 2nd bandsaw and their 2nd metal cutting saw).

 

You're up Korno.

wow wasn't expecting to get it right.

 

What brands offer a drill with easily removable chucks?

 

 One brand in particular comes with multiple chucks in the kit to easily swap out depending on the task at hand.

 

As far as I know, it's Bosch (12V and 18V), Milwaukee M12, Festool, Metabo and Fein. 

 

Bosch, Milwaukee and Festool have a few different types of chucks (right-angle, offset, 1/4" bit holder etc)

 

Metabo have a quick change chuck, but the only compatible 'chucks' are the little 1/4" 'bit holder it comes with, and the huge torque multiplier, so I assume you don't mean that.

FEIN also have a removable chuck with a little 1/4" hex bit holder. Come to think of it, maybe they have other chucks, but I don't remember seeing any.

Metabo also has several angle adapters.

 

Aeg has 12V and 18V drills with quick change chucks including right angle and offset (in Europe at least).
