I went all in on #makita tools when I decided to go cordless. Drill, impact, reciprocating saw, circular saw, multitool: all great buys.

Makita cannot make a nailer worth shit. I paid the premium for their heavy, slow, tool-only (not even a battery??) 18ga brad nailer and it lasted ~a year and a half of mediocre service before dying.

Picked up a #dewalt brad nailer because I have a lot of mahogany trim to run at a job and my god; it's great! Cheaper and better.

As promised - #3Dprinting enthusiasts and #woodworking people of all ages - here is my handy little blade holder for your #jigsaw (if you own a #DeWalt).

I realized that it's a hassle to find a mounting screw for the thing if you don't have one handy from the cutting fence attachment, so I added a little pop-in split pin that seems to work very well and only looks slightly penis-like (not intentional - form follows function, what can I say).

Mi è arrivato il motore nuovo, 9 euro spedito dalla Cina
Ma il mio stupore non è per questo, quanto il fatto che praticamente sia IDENTICO all'originale

Temo che se avessi preso un #makita o #DeWalt, sempre lo stesso motore ci stava sopra...

Detto questo: il motore di destra è il nuovo, quello di sinistra è bruciato

Il problema ora è rimuovere la ruota dentata sull'albero del vecchio a sinistra

Si accettano suggerimenti, vediamo

I watched videos comparing different [worksite] saw horses. I liked the #DeWalt because I am partial to the brand, but it wasn't height adjustable and the price was a bit high. I settled on the #TOUGHBUILT C700. I got a good deal on a pair ($75 Cdn each, a quarter of the price of a pair of DeWalt) because it was near Father's Day and even got free shipping.

One thing none of the videos really mentioned is how damn heavy they are. I guess they're sturdy, but 50 pounds/pair. 🏋️

Since #Makita is still selling in Russia ( som.yale.edu/story/2022/over-1 ) we've switched to #DeWalt tools, but we have lots of Makita batteries. I recommend this adapter from the usual online sources: "Waitley Battery Adapter for Makita 18V conversion compatible with Dewalt 18V / 20V Power Tools". It works great, and includes both USB-A with QC3 and USB-C with PD fast charging ports.

So I've mostly been using #Ryobi tools and they've been OK but obviously light duty. Couple have handles that are already wearing out and I've killed a couple batteries.

I've got one buddy who went red (#Milwaukee), one who went yellow (#DeWalt) and one who went blue (#Makita). Of course.

I'm inclined to go yellow or red - they seem to be about on par and the Packout system seems like the clear winner of everything.

What do y'all recommend? #powertools #theshop

I inherited a cordless drill from my 2nd wife's late 1st husband. It was OK, but the batteries were on their last legs. Didn't want to buy new batteries for a very old tool. Then the drill fell, broke. GOOD! No more internal debate. Replace it.

I knew all would have multi things, so I went with one that also had ONE particular other tool - #PoleHedgeTrimmer.

#DeWalt

Been very happy, 2 years in.
