Mr. Yellow

Me too. I've been using the DCF895 for a few years now and come to love it. Though in all honesty, it's been sitting in speed 3 ever since. Do like the chuck on this. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

No no no. It's just wishful thinking. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

Exactly! Wonder if there will be a DCF896 [emoji56] Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

I can see people think this is the new replacement for the DCF895 because of the 3-speed option that both have. Sweet little impact driver!

So far for the report. Haven't used it yet?

Yeah, I've bought a couple of times from them. The only real complaint about them is their stock indication on their site which isn't accurate. So it can happen when you order something that should be in stock needs to be back ordered. Other than that they are a reliable store. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

That was my idea too. Getting the 230v and change out the cable. Festool must have been looking at the Mirka when they designed theirs. Look mighty fine also. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

This is such a cool sander. Been eyeballing one, but I hardly use a random orbital sander... I still want one [emoji16] Axminster seem to have a good deal. Cheaper there than in my own country (Netherlands). But you have to get a different powercable. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

There isn't any info found online yet, but TIA has the scoop... They also updated the batteries to a new 7.5Ah one.

All of those van racking systems were custom build. I guess that's your only way. You could start looking for a truck box that suits your needs and go from there. That's what I would do

Damn you guys. An hour later and I've ordered one [emoji16] I will need to relocate stuff again. Not going to have 3 radios in the van. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

I should not continue reading this topic as I hardly can resist buying one now...

Cheers for the detailed explanation Rossi. I didn't know the sides are overmoulded with rubber. That should cause some friction. And that nipple should help. I have to see and feel it in person to judge. Some clips would have been best, but yeah, it will possibly end up with a modification one way or another haha. Aside from that, really curious about the soundquality. I should be getting a visit soon from my DeWALT rep, so I hope he has it in his van for a little demo. How's the reception? DAB is still a little hit and miss around here. Very depended on your location, but the one complaint you hear the most from previous team yellow radios is bad reception (AM/FM). I don't have that problem myself, but just asking. Doesn't seem to have an external antenna?

No locks? Strange decision. Even the organizer has little spring loaded tabs. There are some weird brains in team yellow [emoji12] Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

Not my picture. It's from Rossi7x. I don't know about the sound but read a few times now that it must be the best sounding jobsite radio out there. Sent from the yellow planet using Tapatalk

So, how does it lock on the brackets? Anyone knows?

I know they do fieldtesting and they do it a lot. But the majority of testers must have liked the forward/reverse switch as it is, so I guess that's why DeWALT went with that. Right now it's far too easy to set it in reverse by mistake. Anyway those are the updates I would like to see. + that Protool/Festool auto-start/stop system when their patent expires Or DeWALT can really up their game and incorporate a small button style trigger on the side(s) where you place your thumb and index finger. This could make the tool consideraly smaller because the space for the regular style trigger can be ditched.

Noticed some new rear wheels on some pics of the type 2. This VAC would look badass with some go-kart wheels and sllck tyres for better grip

You are becoming the European 'face' for DeWALT

Here are some improvements for a type 2 drywall gun: - Slide switch forward/reverse in a different position, preferably on top. - No load reverse! This is funny. When you pull the trigger the motor spins but the bit will only spin on load (pressure) the problem is that it is also doing this in reverse. Try to get a screw out like that. My DeWALT rep talked about this and yesterday I experienced the same thing. You probably can get screws out when it's in a stud, but if you miss a stud forget about it. - Shorter collated attachment. It's quite long. I know it needs some length for the travel of the bit/mechanism, but the shorter the better. - Also on the collated attachment. Smaller tip. It's a bit hard to precisely point where you wanna screw because the tip blocks the view. Needs to be a more open and possibly smaller design

It's on the label/sticker that is on the tool. It says the modelnumber and also which type. Have a look...

No I am not. And wouldn't date Scarlet Johansson in the first place. Not my type Just freaking buy that damn nailer. It's better than the old model and that was a great gun. Really can't go wrong. You're that guy that needs reviews before you buy something. Jesus man, make up your own mind!!! lol. Killin' me...

That was me Hugh. Still not been able to use it. Current projects don't allow for it. Can't help it.

surely you could say if it's cordless or not....
