  1. Hey Crew, I'm debating as to which one I should get.

    I really like the compact size and weight of the DeWalt 20v, problem is that I don't have any DeWalt 20v tools (I've given them to my brother after going red)

    I already of a butt load of Milwaukee Fuel tools and batteries, so that's a plus in the Milwaukee direction.

     

    How much bigger is the Milwaukee compared to the DeWalt?

    If the size is kinda close, I think I'll stick with Milwaukee. 

    I prefer the DeWalt for what I will be using it for (mainly cutting 2x4 and some trim work)

     

    I haven't went down the Miter Saw aisle at my HD in a while. Do they have the M18 Fuel Miter over there?

  2. Congrats on the DeWalt Table Saw.

    It might be a good idea to find someone that you know to help you with the operation of a table saw.

    They can give you tips and hints that will go a long way. But of course, I'm sure there are tons of YouTube vids to watch as well.

     

    Tips and Mistakes I've made:

    1. Don't cut foam on a table saw. The first thing I ever cut on a table saw was a piece of Styrofoam, it was also the very first time I experienced kick-back. Styrofoam tends to weeble wobble through the cut, causing it to catch on the back of the blade and sending it flying towards your face. I was young and dumb, and thought that Styrofoam would be good practice, i was very wrong.

     

    2. Don't push the cut off side of the material your cutting. The reasoning is that you do not want to pinch the blade. Kinda hard for me to explain.

     

    3. I think someone already mentioned that you should also not stand directly in the path of the blade as well.
