so is this thing one huge battery or is it like DeWalt's where you connect batteries to it.
-
never used this before. Not sure if there is a fix. Does it work on impacts or only drywall guns?
-
Was wondering if anyone has a tool not specifically designed for furniture making but unexpectedly turned out to be great for furniture?
-
oh really? I did not know that. Should we say it hailed then?
-
Milwaukee sometimes has decent deals on batteries but at their normal price they seem quite high for a battery.

use the extreme ultra super vacuum picker upper 6000 will get every last particle of sawdust. Except it might vacuum up the saw as well.

My dewalt 20v OMT has spoiled me for other brands OMT. The grip is so much smaller and easier to hold than the Milwaukee equivalent.
I originally looked at the DeWalt because I already had a 20v drill and impact but when I thought more about it the way DeWalt did the on/off as a variable speed trigger instead of a switch seemed like a smart move. The blade change system is one of the best and quickest but not every blade is compatible which is a flaw. Also I didnt know this till just recently but turns out you can lock on the DeWalt version which is nice especially for long cuts or awkward cuts

nice tool. Been wanting to get this one but not sure how much I would use something like this yet. I'm just out of construction school so I still do a lot of the demo, unwanted, and cleanup jobs. Don't use many powered tools yet. Might try to do some personal projects though. Also purchased some flexvolt stuff cause of the free tool deal. How well would this work for furniture making?

Sawstop.
Powermatic.
Laguna....
ALL AWESOME!!!!
I had the opportunity to use SawStop at school and I felt the fence wasn't as accurate as I would expect from a premium saw. When the fence would lock it would move a bit on the back end of the saw. A common issue with tablesaw but I would not have expected it to happen with something as expensive as a SawStop. It did do a good job at cutting though. Never used a Powermatic or Laguna before.

I heard the dewalt 790 isn't just a 780 without the cord. I heard the performance is better than the 780.
-
factory authorized told me expect shipments end of september to into october. Not too bad considering they told me flexvolt is on backorder.

started designing a tool holder in solidworks to 3d print. started with one for my hammerdrill. gonna design others as well. Ima try to work on one for my impact driver and flexvolt saw. I might even try to build something for my flexvolt recip and maybe some kind of deal to hold chargers and batteries. also might try something that stores bits or bit cases.

would be nice to get some new tough boxes. Im not sure how durable/strong the plastic side latches are to connect boxes together but maybe a tough box with metal side latches would be nice. Would also like to see more inserts to aid in tool organization. Seen something in one of milwaukee's rolling tool chest drawers and it had an angled deal in the back with notches in it and you could put your tools in the notch and the tools would stay organized. Would need a bit of adjusting for a tough box because tough boxes move around more. It would be nice because instead of getting your tough box with a pile of bare tools inside you would have them neatly lined up inside the box. Another idea I had was make a tough box with a weatherproof opening in the back so charger cables can pass through and have an insert that could securely hold your chargers. Would make for safer overnight charging if the batteries are left at the job site.

my closest home depot has no sign of flexvolt. not even a section where flexvolt could go. seems a bit strange that theres not even spaces where out of stock flexvolt used to be. Hopefully factory authorized will ship soon. ordered a good 2 weeks ago.

are flexvolt tools part of DeWalt's made in United States line of tools?
-
I prefer using right blade saw with my left hand. I don't mind the right blade design of the track saw.
-
whats the advantages and disadvantages of including a hook on a circular saw? I feel like I don't use it to its full potential but maybe Im just using it wrong? I find I can easily set the saw on the ground when the cutting is finished.

It's just the dcd 996 and the dcf 887 it's just the 20v drill and impact
the bare tool high torque 3/4 in impact wrench is priced at $269. The bare tool impact and hammer drill are $100 and $120ish respectively. If I were to have picked 2 of the 3/4 impact wrenches I could have sold them for $200 a piece which is around $60 of savings for the buyer and would have $400 to invest in the flexvolt impact and hammerdrill. The flexvolt impact and hammerdrill set is around $400

I really want a track saw but in north America it is not offered yet as far as I know. I haven't even seen options to switch out the baseplate.
