Rtorres092382 Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 So I’m in the market for a new drill press and left me wondering why Dewalt hasn’t made one. That got me thinking what other tools I’d like for them to release but probably won’t. So for conversation sake I’ll start with my list: Bench top or stand along drill press Spindle sander Jointer Drum Sander Cordless biscuit jointer These could very well be coming down the pipeline but I just don’t see dewalt coming out with the stationary tools (a concept I don’t understand because I feel like their lunchbox planer is amazing). So what would you guys love to see in Dewalt’s R&D department? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Adam Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I’ll bite! My wish list would be: - 18V T50 Stapler (based on form factor to new cable-stapler) - 18V Hot Glue Gun - 54V Belt Sander - 18V (54V?) Heat Gun - 54V Capsule Coffee Machine (Why not?) - 54V (Tstak) Active Drinks Cooler - 54V Oscillating Fan (bigger form factor than current 18V fans - which I love) - 18V detail sander - 54V ‘Brompton style’ folding bike. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggie Posted March 4, 2019 Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 1. Compact 1/2" brushless impact wrench. I would have thought we would see this year's ago but for some reason dewalt decided to bow out to milwaukee in this category. 2. 60v metal cutting circular saw 8"ish blade. I've used a milwaukee corded 8" for years and the thing is an animal. Recently we started using the m18 fuel 5 3/8" and while they are impressive with what they can cut I think dewalt would have a winner with 60v power. I'd love to see this but I don't know how big the market is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belt sander is definitely on my wish list too! Forgive my ignorance but what’s a detail sander? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sander that takes standard ‘pointed’ hook-loop pads. Essentially, a one-handed, more refined, less tiring option than using the current multi tool triangle adapter. Ryobi’s version looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not a surprise to hear at all. Compactness is great and all and it seems to have been a huge point of emphasis on gen 3, but sometimes I reach for the heavier tool simply because I know it won’t get as hot even though the small tool is perfectly capable.

Those gen 3s might be heating up because of the higher current of the HD batteries too. Don't know enough about them, but the science would back that up.

Coffee Maker Tough System Vacuum I don't know why DeWalt won't get into belt sanders. I don't think they even sell a corded one in the USA. Roofing nailer would be great but might not happen because roofs get hot and that kills batteries. Biscuit jointer needs to happen too.. come on DeWalt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 I heard a cordless coil nailer was coming in 2019. I would expect more tough system because I know they aren't done with it yet. @TrimmerMatt DeWALT has a corded belt sander in the USA but I heard it wasn't great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrimmerMatt Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 I see why I never noticed it before. It is a TANK. I need a lightweight 3x18 sander. The Ryobi is about right but I wish DeWalt would make one more compact and lighter with a little more belt speed. Wishful thinking I guess.

Big Adam Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Plenty of YT videos of these Chinese bikes hooked up to cordless drills, but if Dewalt made one with a built in built-in motor + 20V battery mount and pushed ‘em out as a $200 promo, who wouldn’t buy one? Or two? Probably too many regs for it to happen though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcarnes911 Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 DeWalt needs to get with the game and make a flexvolt power wheels at least that's what my kids saySent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiltiWpg Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 I want Makita to steal Milwaukee’s USB charging idea.I love that the M12 power supply can charge an M12 battery and serve as a USB power bank.It’s not a fast charger, but it’s super convenient.

Jethro Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 How about real tools? I have a complete set of dewalt but have to go to Milwaukee for a riveter now they have two styles as dewalt have none, a nine inch grinder would be perfect on the 54v range, a porta power hydraulic pump, & while we are dewalt tough system 2 boxes a big fail!
