framer Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Got tired of not having a hook on my reciprocating saw. Put on a hook made for hitachi air gun. Hook cost $12 on ebay. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I usually just hang it by its battery, but I'll probably copy your setup here. I like that. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji23] i'm going to put a hook on my new flexvolt blower too. anything else that could use a hook? [emoji3]Just the other day, I was eyeballing a company Milwaukee deep cut for its hook on my dewalt lol Only thing I envy. The dewalt is lighter, has continued though hard use while I've seen 2-3 of the milwaukees be discarded between two companies. The dewalt hook isn't useless, but its the least efficient design, short of not having one. Does hook on the back of my tough system dolly well for transport, though.

Corey Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 I don’t understand why dewalt never put one on to begin with Sent from my iPad using TapatalkIt seemed implied that saws were getting rereleased with hooks, in some coverage around the rear handle release. They did add a hook to the original sidewinder (don't recall if it was the 20 or 60 or both) but I remember being excited at reading that it was supposed to be most saws. Dewalt, while my preferred brand, unmistakably has a disconnect with the end users, and a history of delayed and abandoned follow through. Shame.
