  4. Seems like my local hd doesn't give a rats ass about discounting prices. If any thing they go up! Still gonna keep an eye out for some deals tho...

    Patience, right now there isn't much with the holiday items out, October had some good deals but there probably won't be much until after the holidays. Also my local HD sucks, they are usually 2-3 weeks behind clearencing product out than most other stores, which isn't necessarily bad, gives you time to plot lol.

  5. Second what Ricky said, Bosch has a little, makita has a few, rigid has a nice stack but that's the majority, dewalt has a lot of options, but from a production you have to look at your maker as a whole. You have some great ideas that I would love to see but how many tstak compressors do you really think you could sell?

    As for tough system a couple guys on here have done some really awesome things with their tough system radios in van racking, since this was your first post, explore around a little in return the dewalt section and you'll find some really good things a couple guys did with their tough systems.

  6. Possibly. If I remember right I went in to look at the ridgid table saw. I knew it was going on sale for black Friday and also checked out the kobalt saw as well. Both are still on sale and need to decide which one to get. The kobalt is $100 cheaper. Decisions decisions.

    I would take rigid over Kobalt, I've looked at the kobalt said and they are nice but rigid has a better, singer feel to it.

  7. To put it nicely, Milwaukee demonstrates their tools in niche applications where they perform best. Every manufacturer does it and in a sense it's rigging the game, but marketing is paid to showcase their tools not give a honest comparison. Having a hammer tailored to the application is particularly important with rotary hammers which is why there are so many sizes.

    Let's go into some more detail on rotary hammers. Each impact breaks up a little concrete across the tip of the bit and the rotation scrapes that and some other concrete away. How much is broken at a given point on the tip is dependent on the impact energy per area of the bit tip. Of course this is not a linear function; there's a threshold under which you're not doing much, and one over which the marginal increase of chipping for an increase in impact energy drops off. Ideally you get over the second threshold and stop wasting extra power, but then you go up a bit size and it's under-powered. In addition to this, the chipped cement needs to be removed by the bit rotating, but for a large bit the average absolute speed of any given part of the bit is much higher for a given rotational speed is higher so larger bits can use a lower rotation speed. A small bit may not have enough rotational speed to effectively clear chips and the hammering will re-hit what it has already broken and waste energy. To top it all off, the angle modulation of impacts depends not only on the bit size, but the bit type. Essentially each impact should maximize the time since a previous hit on nearby areas over the whole area on which it's hitting (The math is complicated enough even I don't want to calculate it). For a large bit, the distance between the end of the carbide tip on impacts is going to be greater so the minimum angular spacing of hits needs to be closer.

    This all combines to mean in masonry drilling, unlike wood or metal, speed depends on many things besides power. It's quite possible that with less power that hammer won for a 1 inch hole, but that would probably be a different story for the max rated 1-9/16 inch hole.

    That said, I would actually class the tools designed to use the 9Ah battery with 36V tools rather than 18V. The 9Ah batteries seem to be Milwaukee's answer to Makita's 18X2 system, another way to get people into heavier tools without really leaving the 18V platform. I believe milwaukee's 9Ah battery actually has more power than the ego 56V, 2Ah battery.

    That's some pretty heavy stuff but I get what your saying, if I'm not mistaken rotary hammers should have lower rpms?

  8. dat a boy......I'm sure you will be cutting more than you thought you could before long....

    Yea comp I got a older 11 amp with a 7/8" stroke it's a great saw and I've got my money out but I figure if I'm going to go cordless might as well go fuel!

  9. Typically when they show cordless outperforming corded its against an old or cheap tool in a very specific application. Of course in some ranges of tools theres so much more refinement in the cordless tools that the best corded comparisons are junk. Pneumatic impact wrenches dominated so much that corded never developed, and non-cordless impact drivers are even rarer.

    Yea that's true, demand for corded isn't for what it is cordless, but if you have a chance go to the Tia website, Dan uploaded a video of him on a m18 fuel sds max with 9.0 pack vs a corded model, not sure if stats, pretty cool vid though.

  10. Well I picked up fuel Sawzall today so I have officially began my polygamist 18v cordless tool life style. Wanted a cordless Sawzall and Dewalt just doesn't do it, so it's only a matter of time before my tool addiction swipes up m18 tools.

  11. Review from a guy on youtube shows this wrench puts out 1100 lbs of breakaway torque. Simply amazing. My question is why isn't there any impact wrenches that run off your 110 outlet with the same ratings? The best I've seen is dewalts dwf293 (292, 293, and 294) thats max is 345 ft lbs.

    Not too sure exactly why, battery operated tools just seem to becoming more efficient with power and more powerful then a lot of corded tools. Most corded tools are still brushed motors where as many cordless have turned to brushless. We've seen a few Milwaukee fuel tools out perform their corded cousins i.e. Sawzall and sds max. Maybe the tool can harness the energy from the battery better than AC power, slightly over my head.

  12. Picked up some craftsmen crows feet on Black Friday and they sent a coupon with my orders for 5% off of any power lawn and garden or outdoor storage purchase. I have no intention of using this and not sure if it can be used more than once. Here is the coupon

  13. Amazon Deals Permathread

    Bmack does a good job of posting some good knipex scores, there's a good link to a search for Amazon warehouse deals too. I do a decent amount of eBay shopping, there's some good stuff on there just know what your buying. If you don't have one for electrical make sure you get a good multimeter and a non contact voltage detector, those are very valuable, trade electricians on here will tell you flukes, they run a large chunk of change but are worth it.
