I dunno what happened but this has been a huge disappointment from Ryobi. Its been over a year when the first talked about these battery packs?
-
A better blade than the stock blade might help with some of the performance issues A thinner kerf helps plus the blade your given with the saw is usually a trash blade anyways.

Might have been another brand Ryobi has been exclusive to HD for years. It would be big news if that relationship changed.

Are all makita tools compatible with the 18v platform?
I believe a few really old LXT tools are not compatible with the newer batteries.

No your not wrong Lowes has a small selection of tools compared to HD it seems.

Crazy how tiny it is compared to a modern Jeep

Yea the Metabo impact driver was old its due for an update

My only issue is phones seem to be insanely expensive for what they are.

Yea a mini split is basically a heat pump the only thing is heat pumps don't work well in extreme cold,

Ego must be getting hammered on a tarrif or currency. Ego makes nice stuff but I would look around to see if another brand fits what you need. Also in general USA tool prices are way cheaper than the rest of the world.

I have a few channels I watch religiously but others I will watch when the content seems to be worth it. I need to purge some channels as they kinda suck now. The one channel that I like is stevemre

This was a little unexpected so I will be listing some tools later to cover some funeral expenses. Also prayers for her and my family. It was a rough morning.

Yeah started to try the flexvolt and M12 platforms again but those were stolen from the shop at work so I'm back down to 20v tools only again.
Fuck dude that sucks. At this point it would be all Ryobi with all the theft issues you have dealt with!!

I have DeWALT 20v and 60v and some EGO. I have tried sticking with very few battery platforms which has worked so far. I could have stuck with DeWALT for OPE but I felt EGO was the better choice in the long run. All my woodworking and work tools I can get with DeWALT and all my OPE I can get with EGO. My parents wanted to get me a heated jacket and I found a deal on an m12 jacket so I will be an m12 owner soon. I hope to get the m12 stapler as well. I am trying to avoid anymore platforms but Festool cordless is calling my name in both their normal 18v and sander batteries. I try to avoid corded tools.
Ego was just too tempting not to invest in.

Used to be my abomination of batteries. Imho maybe two platforms at the most. Any more isn't worth it.
Forgot you got robbed so much money in batteries stolen that sucks especially the metabo.

It can be done but its not recommended a lot of things could go wrong with that. I don't know if your in another country because in the USA you can get a cheap lion Ryobi pretty cheap or Harbor Freight.

It sucks but no brand has all the tools a person could want. It's getting better year by year though the early 20v max years were pretty lean also Ridgid was pretty tiny back then When X4 launched it wasn't much to expand into.

Let this be a lesson in either cleaning your tools before using them for dermatological applications or just use the right tool for the job… not whatever this guy used.
My money would be on it being a chisel he used. Says woodworking blade and I can’t see it being a saw. Maybe a marking knife?
A finger nail usually worked to pop a zit!!

From the Chicago area maybe Dan and Eric should do a safety video
