jtkendall Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Has anyone posted a complete list of what was announced? I saw the M12 rocket light, chainsaw, M12 impact wrenches, the new batteries, and the jigsaws but haven't been able to catch up on everything yet. I briefly saw some kind of rover light that folds flat and the back is a carabiner, but Instagram refreshed and I never got back to it.

I don't have a list but maybe @JimboS1ice, @Eric - TIA, @KnarlyCarl, or someone else has made one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted May 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 To clarify those rachets are in a slim case but not the packout slim case. Also Packout has foam inserts, a small box without metal corners, and the wall mounting plate coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK13 Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Oh crap, I didn’t see the 3/8” mid torque impact... I think the M12 cutoff may make it into my garage.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted May 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Hmm this is very interesting. I was watching @Eric - TIA's and @Dan - TIA's new video and it showed some banners on the wall I was surprised the new 7-1/4" circ saw specifically left out fuel but added brushless underneath. I wonder why the New circular saw is not advertised as fuel? Maybe they had 2 new models come out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousJoe Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Maybe that’s been released as well as a budget option. I saw a video of a new compact brushless drill (non-fuel) also released but I haven’t heard anything about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtkendall Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 @JimboS1ice Thanks Jimbo. Looks like I have some saving to do. Lights, jigsaw, batteries, chainsaw, Impact wrenches, and the packout wall mount and slim organizers are all on my list. Glad some of it’s spread out over the year. A bit disappointed that the only OPE item was the chainsaw, was hoping for a mower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK13 Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Has anybody seen a projected release date for anything? (Most interested in the impact wrenches/driver and cutoff tool.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousJoe Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 All I saw was for the new drill on Acme and they say July 5th for a ship date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 And I have not even seen the jig saw on the Milwaukee page as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The.Handyman Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 did you see the auto mode for the barrel grip? Yes, it has an auto mode and a speed dial from 1 to 6 that disables the auto mode.They were very smooth with excellent blade break when turned off. Can't wait to get them in my hands.

Jronman Posted May 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 Milwaukee says the new table saw can do dados. 3/4x1/2 is the max dado. I don't think the Flexvolt is able to dado. @Framer joe MORE POWA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a nice feature, the Carvex does the same thing really good feature to have 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satchmodog Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I generally don't get swayed by advertising and I rarely buy anything fresh off the presses, but Tool Boss had that Milwaukee snubby impact all over his vids and I want it. Do I need it, no. Want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weird Tolkienish Figure Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I love Tool Boss's trips to home depot. Relaxes me for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The table saw looks nice to, but prices on that in Norway is probably going thru the roof. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrosBros82 Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Interesting on the jig saw(s). I guess I want to see them reviewed first, as I get that everyone is excited on the forum, but with the new models hopefully they got their electronics right and everything is as good as advertised.

Tug Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 Some nice kit in there! The petrol chainsaw didn't seem to be throwing much dust, maybe they gave it a blunt chain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousJoe Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 That’s a good video, nice to see someone get up close and show the tools a little bit better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
