  1. Hey guys! We upgraded from our 2001 E350 van to a new 2500 Ram Promaster tall roof, long wheelbase. Of course we had to build it out for our needs. We have been working out of it for a month or so now and it is just great! Unbelievable how much nicer it is to not have to crawl around anymore.

     

    Here is a video tour of the inside. Hopefully it gives someone some good ideas.

  2. Cutting depth is 2-9/16"...will make cutting i-joists so much nicer. Feels balanced...about the same weight as the Milwaukee 6.5". One negative is no rafters hook. Good sightlines to the blade. 57 degree bevel capabilities! Could have used that earlier this week.f196659b1de71be7263610b970808dab.jpgc5b26e807e0bbb95824a310eb0ef6ff3.jpg

  3. I have been in construction all my working life. I would go on jobsites with my dad when I was 8 or 9. Worked at a remodeling company during high school and full time my freshman year of college. Decided I loved construction and quit school and haven't looked back. In 2001 I started my company along with 2 other partners. One guy left quite awhile ago and it is just myself, my partner, and a helper. We build custom homes and do remodeling work.

  4. Solves voltage drop to an extent but still won't get you FlexVolt muscle if the 9.0 on a 2731 is a benchmark to go off of. 

    I get that...but for my use I don't need that. 90% of my cordless cutting can be done by the 20v saw..probably more like 95%. For that 5% it falls short I can get out my old trusty Skilsaw worm drive.

  5. If you are going to be cutting a lot of I-joists, you won't regret picking up one of the Flex Volt 7 1/4s for the job.

    I have been eyeing it but the 20v appeals to me more. If I want more power I can add a 60v batt but for the time being I can use the batts I already have.

  6. I don't like the stock shelves. I think putting thought into how you use your van and your most used items helps make a more efficient setup. Having a specific spot for everything makes cleanup at the end of the day go so much quicker and when you go to grab a tool it is right where it always it.

    We did our van in a combo of wood, metal, and ToughSystem boxes. It has worked great! We just bought a new ProMaster and are in the process of building it out right now. I will post pics as I go.

  7. How big is your yard Chris? We own one for a smaller yard on a rental property we own. It is great that I can drive over now and not have to bring a mower or gas. The yard is maybe 3500 sq ft. It takes about 30-40 minutes to mow it and it just gets it on one battery if it isn't too tall. In mulching mode it does a good job on mulching the grass and cuts good.
