firefighter4187 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 DeWalt has a hot glue gun out, it would have made sense if they made a cordless version for the 8v line..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsW-ccuurUM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brien Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Yup... I saw that at Home Depot about a month ago and bought it. I don't know why. I have never used it. And that is all I have to say about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Glue gun is a nice addition, but I agree that an 8V model would have been cool. Wouldn't have lasted very long, but it would have been cool. A 12V version would be workable, though it would work out better with the small Milwaukee pack.

Conductor562 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Ok, I posted before I watched the video. Now I have 2 things to add:1. I have that Arrow model gun in the background2. What's this about a Lifetime Warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR99 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Bosch has some cordless glue guns on the other side of the pond, but it looks like they have little interest bringing it here. It would be perfect for skill to have it anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some interesting products we don't have here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 That would be a great idea to make it a dewalt 8v cordless glue gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 It would be the Milwaukee 8v fuel 100 in 1 glue gun with a multi tool, spork, nail clipper, nose and ear trimmer, wire striper, nail file, fly swatter, butt scratcher, bottle opener, weed wacker, etc all in one tool with bluetooth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe M Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 All Dewalt hand-tools at THD have a lifetime warranty and are supposed to be treated just like a Husky warranty. In fact, Home Depot no longer carries Husky tape measures for this reason as all the Dewalt tape measures are exchangeable in store. That is the company line, your success at each store may be limit as change is slow and most people won't be aware of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe M Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I would never take one, my reason being to a customer is that you are not getting a similar quality product at HF. Lowes and Menards stuff all the time, HF is where the line is drawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 It's up to the store management some do some don't it's nice if the store around you does because 20% of is freaking nice We just had a Menards open around here and they are matching the 11% rebate offer from Menards now.

Javier Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 My hd is super picky. I know they only accept lowes, ace, orchards and I forgot who the other store is (probably Menard's) so I tried using some printed 15% off coupons from ace and they refused to accept them. Said they won't accept any printed coupons from the net. That sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamatitan Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I dont see a 8v battery lasting but maybe a couple of sticks in a hot glue gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brien Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I used my hot melt glue gun today! I used it to temporarily glue some blocks to some trim to aid in clamping while the "real glue" setup. Tomorrow I will hopefully knock the temporary blocks off. Needless to say the glue gun worked just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brien Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 So in the video the fella uses it to glue biscuits. I was building some fireplace mantels today and thought, "hey I'll use the glue gun like in the video". That was a bad idea. The working time is instant. I had to plane the hot melt off and use wood working glue. I'll use the hot melt for temporary application where I have a quick working time.
