  1. I went into Sydney tools yesterday and picked up the blade left saw. I asked about 12.0 battery’s and they said they got a shipment I. Already but they are yet to be sent out to stores! So it shouldn’t be too much longer hopefully sometime next week

  2. Just ordered the flexvolt purely because I’m in the platform. Will see how it goes!

    we have a site Festool corded tracksaw so luckily I can use the longer tracks we have of them! Who knows might have to add another battery platform.

  3. Oh really! That’s average of them.

    the Makita does look good. But I think I’m going to pickup the dewalt and if it turns out I don’t like it after using for a few weeks I’ll take it back. Just heavily invested in dewalt so I want it too be good!  But will see how it goes

  4. Hey guys going to be buying a plunge saw soon and been looking at reviews and whatnot. It’s between the flexvolt tracksaw and festoll cordless. Festool is $1250 for kit and a rail. I can get the dewalt kit for $900 this weekend only. Went to a tool shop and played with them both and pretty disappointed with the dewalt.

    the plunge mechanism was super stiff and required a ton of force to even move it down?? Is it a thing that will wear with use and become easier or can it be lubed for smoother action?

    like to hear everyone’s opinions on them both thanks :)

  5. Does anyone know if dewalt have a new 20v mitre day in the works? Have the flexvolt but some days you don’t need to big boy and i feel the current 20v mitre is pretty average. Even considered buying into red for there 7 and a quarter but would rather stay in one platform

    They frame houses in aus.? Tools? I thought they only used knifes....lol, just kidding.....Australia has some of the greatest architectural marvels on earth...very cool buildings ,houses,....I'm big on architecture, I do frame custom homes...

    .     Hope you guys get all the cordless tools you need ! Dewalt of course.... :)

    Just rebought the little 18v blower and its dead on arrival :( real shame first dewalt product that had failed on me in 6 years.

  7. Hello fellows, I've been trying to find somewhere in the us that will ship 20v max skins to aus but am having trouble. Almost every amazon store won't do it and I want to get a few tools which are not out in aus yet. Anyone know of any shop that will do international shipping?

    Dewalt tool connect has ..gps ...you pay monthly 19$ and it's gps anywhere through all phone towers...you would have known exactly where your tools were....it's not available yet ,but soon.....sorry to hear about your tools gone...truly sucks ...don't know your circumstances, but my tools stay locked in my truck or in my garage ,in my truck...at work they don't leave my site,if I go to lunch ,I pack em up before I go...

    ......any video surveillance? Hope it works out.....call Dewalt tell them your story,maybe they will hook you up....

    I'm the exact same as you, but they broke a window and grabbed what was worth the most. No surveillance.

    Yep calling dewalt is on the cards, hopefully the can look after me but it's a business at the end of the day.

    Damn man that's horrible, you had like 20 batteries...I'd cry if that happened to me. I've been contemplating looking into GPS'ing a few of my bigger tools in case this happens I have a small window to catch the thief. 

     

    Check your insurances to see if you're covered, might get lucky. 

    I wish a tool company would inbuild gps in to there tools, none of this Bluetooth crap!

  10. Thanks guys. I'm from Australia :) appreciate the support, lucky I have some spares laying around to get me by for the time being.

    its a crazy time for tool thefts here ATM. Trailer cars and everything being nabbed. Working out insurance now so hopefully I can recoup abit back. Just lucky they didn't take my flex table saw or mitre saw.
