Milwaukee Tools

For those that have it. What do you think about the Hackzall? Is it better then a Recip saw? More controllable for better cuts?

 

Milwaukee 8” metal cutting saw. It’s a wicked tool will really cut prep times and cleanup.

 

Both hachzall and sawsall have their place. I used to cut a lot of plastic and copper pipe. Also a lot of conduit. Smaller stuff was a breeze with the hackzall. Larger stuff I used the sawzall.

Two of the best things Milwaukee ever made are the copper pipe cutter and the pvc cutter.

 

Where are the cheap m18 batteries at?

 

Heh my dad got that same impact

 

I own a shop and if I had to have only one impact, it would be that one. Fits everywhere and is torquey enough to do most stuff. Also use the ratchet a lot. Not super powerful, but awesome for just spinning nuts on and off especially in awkward spots

 

Never lets me down

 

This surge impact is super quiet. I highly recommend this hydraulic driver to anyone on the fence, or looking to build one...

• Up to 2X Quieter Than Standard Impact Drivers

I also love this Axis heated vest and this flashlight. Shameless plug, my brother makes a dock for M12 battery adaptors here, which work great for testing 12v lights, etc. when installing on the Tacoma. A great adaptor for anything 12v..

 

Sadly, they all disappeared after Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

 

Got a pile of HD gift cards for B-Day and Christmas. Just ordered the Milwaukee Folding Miter Saw stand. Have a hardwood flooring install coming up and it's on 3rd floor of condo. Going to use the new 7 1/4" M18 miter saw.

 

I've used both. Generally, If I can/have to use one hand, I use the Hackzall (mostly smaller stuff or awkward position). Otherwise, it's the Recip.

 

depending on the floor this saw is pretty slick, built a base with casters so I basically never have to stand up

That looks sweet. I don't do a lot of flooring, but this is certainly something I'd consider if I start to do more. Thanks for sharing!

Returning my wife’s Christmas present of a black&decker stick vacuum for the Milwaukee stick job site cleanup vacuum.

 

I use the pipe cutter in a "production" application for repeated 2 3/4" hunks of 3/4" heavy wall. That thing is a hero!

 

I drill ice with a M18 Mud Mixer and 9ah battery, it's awesome. I have a pile of Milwaukee tools.

 

That's awesome! I've definitely seen people use drills, but not a mud mixer

 

The mud mixer is great for drilling ice with the dual handles.

 

Very Nice!
