  1. I wouldn't give $20 for the right blade 7 1/4 20v saw. But I wouldn't mind having the new FV framing saw. It's hard to justify though, my blade left 20v with a FV battery does all I need- cuts plywood, occasional studs or joists, and miles of window and corner trims. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  3. I think blade left is a left coast thing. I have never seen a blade right saw (before the FV) on a jobsite. I think the prevailing attitude is blade right is for homeowners. If corded, skilsaw mag77 rules here. Other worm drives are used, as are blade left cordless saws. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I insist on blade left. I put a FV battery on my 6 1/2 20v max saw. The difference is remarkable. It's like putting on a brand new blade when you're used to cutting with a worn out demo blade. You can really tell the difference on long rips. Higher rpm, more power. Before any geniuses pipe up about 20 volts is 20 volts, just shut up. It's a different saw when you put a flexvolt battery on it. The same is true for the 20v miter saw. It's easier to buy a battery than it is to get used to having the blade on the wrong side.

  5. Some business owners like to splurge on tools at the end of the year for tax purposes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Does it have a timer where the vacuum remains in for 10 seconds after the saw is shut off? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I used the fan to dry painted trim the other night. It was still blowing the next morning. Very good. I'll do the same at a job with the big blower. More volume, but it may take a battery or two. Use it to clean up most days. I set it in the ground, tilted up, to blow myself off. Works great. Pleased with both. I don't think I could use the small blower. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. Not stupid question. You don't even have to look at the other level. If a level is flipped over, the bubble should read the same both ways. If you look at the last two pictures, the Milwaukie's bubble is off the line in the first picture, but it is on the line in the second picture. If it is on the same surface in the same place, the bubble should be in the same place relative to the lines. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. It generally works at HD when I show them a tool from a real online tool company that offers free shipping. You generally save $20 on a bare tool. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Sold out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. The 7480 and the 745 will take a dado. The Flexvolt will not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I think very few people run a jigsaw more than an hour a day - the kind of usage that would benefit from brushless. While a reciprocating saw drains batteries with a quickness, a jigsaw will run a long time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I've seen these and reported them. It's like they sell as much as they can for two days until they are shut down Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I think Dewalt brands more tools than it has ever made. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. How the heck did you get the fan already? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  18. If a Dewalt bag came with their track saw, I would expect it to work as good as the ones that come with their miter saws. Good enough to never use. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. That will be cool next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I know I use my tools for their intended purpose. I don't baby them, and don't abuse them too bad. Do they break down? Yes, eventually. In three years, I've had a framing nailer break, an OMT go bad, and a couple batteries go bad. I had the nailgun fixed, OMT was replaced, and I sold the bad batteries on eBay. It's just a part of doing business. We replace blades and bits frequently, and bigger tools periodically. No sense complaining about occasional breakage or bad batches of drills. It's only $150 or less. Sell it or throw it away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. I don't have the FV circular saw because I prefer blade left. If you prefer blade left, get the 20v saw and put a FV battery on it. It makes a world of difference. Also, make sure to pick up the oscillating tool. Super handy for finishing cuts the circular saw can't. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. If you use cordless nailguns much, go yellow. I have the framer, 15 ha, 18 ha, 18 ha stapler. Quite happy with them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Too funny!

    Crazy. My dad had a dog when I was a kid that ate a deck. The splinters killed him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Add drop cloths, bungee cords, and latex gloves. Nothing electric. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
