thickness planner or metal saw or just about any tool with a gas/diesel motor

Is it going to be available for North America? I'm not sure about the filter I've never used one of those kind of vacuums.

I dont see the pictures

how many coats of finish did you apply? I heard you gotta put quite a bit

Can anyone show a picture of the flexvolt recip chuck?

they better hustle to it. pun intended

I was wondering about something if you were to have the 12 in sliding flexvolt miter saw, the power cord attachment for the saw, the portable power supply, and 4 flexvolt 2.0 batteries. Lets put 4 batteries fully charged into the portable power supply then plug the miter saw into the power supply. Would the run time be close to double of that if you instead had 2 batteries in the saw? Would the run time of 4 batteries in the saw vs 4 in the portable power supply be the same?

makita bough hitachi which bought metabo which bout makita?

What your new total count for tough system products?

or could get jack bauer

if its for the same price then I would take you up on the offer but ill let you know when I am able to buy it. I don't feel like I can buy it. I should be able to buy it soon though.

I recently started watching a woodworking youtuber I hadn't seen before and what I thought was interesting about this particular youtuber is he invents new tools. For example, He has designed some prototypes for a saw blade dado setup to make drawer creation easier and faster. I might even try it after it comes out on the market. He is still working with a partner to create a final design. He also has built some prototypes for a 4 way parallel clamp. It not only provides horizontal pressure but vertical pressure as well. One of his tests read a little over 200 lbs of vertical pressure. I suggest subscribing to his videos. If you arent interested in subscribing at least check him out. Heres the link to his channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYJ6JJ7Q938Fls5He8zYRFA

is the Flexvolt impact and drill kit still available? It comes with a tool bag, a 2.0 compact battery, and a 6.0 Flexvolt battery?

I would like to be this skilled except my accuracy and 45's aren't so great.

Which trade do you specialize in? Construction, particularly furniture. Also residential drafting Do you invest in higher quality tools that will last longer? Of course, low quality tools are not an option. Which tool brand do you use most frequently? Dewalt is what I use the most. I hope to get some high quality furniture tools if I can save enough money. I was thinking about trying to get some Powermatic tools. Can you think of tools that you would like to own, but can’t justify spending the money on? A timesaver wide belt sander. It's probably one of my favorite tools I've ever used but at $20,000 to get their basic computerized shop model is quite a bit to spend. I suppose I could also say a shop. If that tool(s) were available for rental, would you rent it? Depends on the price and if it were rent to own. Also would be nice to be able to rent it for a reasonable price but have free upgrades to a newer models when it comes out. Not sure if I would ever rent a shop or not. Have you rented tools before? no If so, which tools do you rent most often? n/a Would you rather rent from an organization, or an individual? I would rather rent from an individual if its someone I know and I know is gonna have good tools that have been taken good care of. If I don't know anyone with the tool I need I will probably go to an organization to rent it. Of the tools you rent, which is the most difficult to transport / maneuver? n/a Do you ever rent your own tools for extra cash? If no, would you? Why or why not. I haven't rented any of my tools. I would consider renting my big woodworking tools because not many people may have the tools or access to the tools. I was thinking they could pay a monthly or yearly fee to have access to my shop. My small hand tools I would not rent, because they are too easily broken or stolen. My drill and impact especially wouldn't rent because I would use it quite a bit on the job. I could see people utilizing a "woodshop membership". All tools they have access to would have to stay in the shop. If I were to rent out tools, the person renting the tool from me would not be able to take the tool and use it else where. They can only use it at my shop. Can you think of any specific tool that is in need of an upgrade? All tools could use improvements, new features, etc. I would like a tool that helps make better 45 miters. Seems like every time I try to make a 45 miter to join 2 pieces together they don't line up right. Either the angle is off a hair making the joint a bit off square or one piece is too long or too short. Well it wouldn't have to be restricted to 45 angles. It should help with any desired angle. sometimes you need to join pieces with other angles like 22.5. Can you think of any obvious change that could be made to a tool to make it more suitable for renting? tracking device just incase it gets lost or stolen. Heavier duty build quality so parts break less. Would you rather have 1 tool that does 3 jobs ‘okay’, or 3 tools that do each job very well? 3 tools that do the job well. Is space-saving an issue when storing your equipment or working on a jobsite? Depends on the job. If I owned a large enough shop, space wouldn't be much issue. If I were working on a small remodel then space might be an issue depending on the tools needed. The typical house build wouldn't have much issue with space once the house is lockable and tools stored inside or if the tools are stored inside a large enough trailer. Storing tools in the back of a pickup truck or a small trailer might have a space issue. Were you too specific? No

I think the turbo from the new Honda civic would be a better blower.

mind showing us your fancy new shop?

The one key reciprocating saw seems like a step above the rest of the one key lineup. It cuts faster when set to desired material setting and extends life of the blade saving time and money. Also you can easily toggle between up to four custom performance profiles that can be saved to the memory of the tool. Once you set each of the profiles you don't need the app which saves time. I see the $50 premium as worth it for even the average tradesman. Before the one key recip saw I really only saw the drill and impact being marketed for the guy putting the same screws in the same material all day or doing the same task all day. I wonder if the average guy would see benefit from the drill and impact because you can set each of the 4 presets with their own custom settings and then forget about the app once the settings are saved in the tool.

Now they are saying Christmas? Someone said October 12th was when a shipment would come in.
