With the blades being more than 10x the price of a sawzall blade I wouldn't touch wood with one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the species of lumber and if it's pressure treated or not, and it's also heartwood. Might be twice as fast as a sawzall (non orbital and cordless), no telling without direct comparison. For me it's a no for blade wear. The majority of that blade wouldn't see much action because it's so long and everything close to the body would dull quickly where a chainsaw wears evenly always and can easily be sharpened by comparison. Blade changes seem awkward as well, they should have engineered a quick release IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at that saw and see it is a form of reciprocating saw and that it has a blade more like a hand saw than a Sawzall. I can't tell you what blades are available for it, what kind of stroke length it has or what kind of speed it has. I would guess that it easier to cut straight than a Sawzall and I think it would be easier to get the blade angle where you want for a cut. I can see where that saw would have a place in timber framing and probably give cleaner cuts than a chainsaw for log homes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stercorarius Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Seems like something I have no need for and that's as much as I think about it. I think most guys agree and that's why they don't market it here. I'm sure some guys rely on it but most don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janko Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Anybody here know if Dewalt is bringing a new flexvolt framing nailer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilloncorr Posted September 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Have you used the 20V? not sure there is much need for a higher voltage? On another note... not sure how CPO and other websites can pre-order saying they will ship 8/23... and then tell me yesterday we are atleast another week out... drives me nuts!!!!!! Any one else heard any new about the availability of the 60V SDS? My company is in the market for a SDSMax, and a couple plusses, but there has to be a dust extraction option. We have a Hilti which is great but ungodly expensive. The Extractor for the 20V looked like a more feasible ($) option. (assuming this will fit) http://www.dewalt.com/products/power-tools/dust-management/dust-extractors-and-vacs/dust-extractor-for-1-20v-max-sds-hammer/d25303dh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Bigger heavier cordless nailers is not the way to get conquest sales from pneumatic. Just my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bremon Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Not sure when my order will ship out either (not from cpo) but I think it's highly likely next week most people will see their stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 factory authorized told me expect shipments end of september to into october. Not too bad considering they told me flexvolt is on backorder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
