Technically it's a 60v platform but apologizing for desalts failure to make 2x60v tools is silly.
Makita's appeal is 2x18v to make more powerful tools with existing batteries.
Part of the whole sales pitch of 60v was some tools would be 60vx2 or 120v D.C. Dewalt was making us night the bullet on a new battery platform so some tools would be corded or cordless like the dhs790. No need to use batteries when set up for long periods. So where is the full size compressors, table saws, vacuums, etc.... in other words almost all new 120v dewalt tools could be flexvolt. Go corded or cordless. I bought in and am disappointed in the lack of 60vx2 tools with a corded option especially now that no 60v convertor is being made 😩
Thank you I agree

I would go Tough system especially with the new Van racking coming out

120v is definantly a platform.
Just one yet to fully be recognized.
And the opportunities are endless

120v Dual Bevel 12in Miter
Love it
But I have this 120v power adapter that when not using the miter saw is completely useless.
20v has 100+ tools
60v has about 10 tools at this point maybe more
120v has 1 Tool.
The platform has a 120v Gap.

I just don't think you can beat Hitachi when it comes to Coil guns

so the metal connector nailer and framing are the same nailer?
No
the metal connector nailer is a separate gun and you can tell it by the narrow extended black tip used for placing the nail.

You want a 13hp Honda motor with a CAT or General Pump. Don't accept anything else.

Red Cedar is great but only last around 10-15years in South Florida when exposed to the elements. It is fuel to a fire, termites although it isn't Their wood of choice will eat. Not to great with constant rain either.
LP smart side is in my opinion worst and a cheap product I would never install.
Vinyl - Just No
Hardie is the best available on the market
Fire Proof #1 Siding of Firefighters

We have cut a ton of fiber cement with our old Dewalt 12" miter saw. We don't use fiber cement any more because it is a crap product but the saw is still in service as our framing miter saw.
Get the right blade, use a dust extractor, and keep the saw blown off regularly.
Or better yet buy a cheap HF saw for the job and don't worry about damaging your good saw. You wouldn't catch me using our Kapex or fine finish miter saw to cut FC.

Makes Since I was thinking a ryobi 10in miter for Hardie Jobs
What lap Siding product are you using that's better than Hardie Plank I'm interested to know ?
-
So when I bought the flexvolt mitersaw 120v I remember clearly reading Do Not Cut Fiber Cement.
Diablo sells a 12 Hardi-Blade for Fiber cement specifically James Hardie products.
Has anyone used a Hardie-Blade on their Dewalt 10in or 12in miter ?
Will it damage the Saw?

@JakeDewalt I agree. Some DeWALT tools may be long in the tooth or be lacking in convenience features, but they are able to complete the job and at the end of the day if it completes the job, thats all that matters.
Correct.
It completes the job to the customers expectations, efficiently and reliably.
Every Single Day Month after Month after Month.
So change the title to....
Sorry Dewalt it's me I'll shut up now j/k

Yeah flexvolt doesn't sell to the Oldies. They hate change and won't pull that credit card out untill their 1990 miter finally gives out and even then they will buy a Ryobi just to keep the job going.

I disagree Dewalts line may be missing some specialty and helpful tools but it is a complete set up that can frame and finish and entire house which I have done multiple times in the past 3 years. Dewalt has plenty of lights to get the job done I don't feel the need to buy a Milwaukee light ? I own zero Bosch, Mikita, or Milwaukee tools and have never got to a job site and be unable to complete my tasks.
I think most people saying they had to buy multiple brands never actually bought the entire dewalt line-up.
Do I love new tools of course, but I'm having trouble thinking of a new tool that dewalt could come out with that has stopped me from being able to do my job before. Can you think of 1?
Name 1 Milwaukee tool that I actually need? Bosch? Makita?
Its became brand loyalty but it didn't start that way.
