Using their 18v 4AH battery? The size and weight...
Probably will be indestructible like Nokia 3310.

I plan to go too. Hope can get some good deal.
With the exchange rate getting worse, I scare price increase again.

Well, I am aiming for

Cordless 18V circular saw
Cordless 18V 3 mode rotary hammer
cordless 18V grinder or the 10.8V one?

Maybe
belt sander

Amazon sale price is good but with USD now at 4.5 not worth the hassle anymore.

10 inch miter saw. I choose 10 inch so the blade can interchange with my table saw, if required.
This one does not have slide function so it is smaller.
Bosch GCM10 MX. Comes with 100T multi material saw blade. Can cut aluminum and PVC pipe I think.

I mod the dust port a bit so it can connect to my vacuum for dust collection, also saves lots of space behind the miter saw.
The dust bag not really that effective, makes whole room full of dust when cutting.

With included dust bag.


Mod to connect to my vacuum unsing L pipe join. Free up space behind the saw.
Very little dust escape into air when using vacuum.

Maybe warehouse sale, in buy buy buy mode?

Eh... I didn't expect taobao got Ryobi tool.

Today I use the 10.8v grinder to cut some metal bar.
Cuts much faster than my dremel.
Its also quieter than the dremel when spinning, generate much more sprarks than dremel when cutting.

I started with a fully charged battery, after cutting 4 stick, still 3 bar.

I have not used it heavy enough to know.

Everyone's situation is different and require different solution. Also depends on what type of projects you plan to do.

If you have a permanent place then build a workbench.
If you don't have permanent space then build a foldable workbench for easy storage.
The internet has all kinds of info to give you ideas.

If you have the money, see those pre made workbench from wolfcraft, black and decker.
In Malaysia I dont think I've seen Bosch workbench.

There are some cheaper workbench that is about rm100 but dont put too high hope on the quality.
Usable as a startup and occational use.

*you need a workbench to build another workbench*

wa... you guys are pro.
Here I feel so good dismantle and plane pallet wood while you guys are already in the stage of milling raw lumber.

That day bought the planer during Bosch warehouse sale without knowing what I will use it for.
Now I discover the size of the planer just nice to cleanup the dirty pallet wood I dismantle from pallets.

Talking about tung oil, where can I get tung oil in Malaysia?
Even ACE hardware dont have it.

For small project that 1 bench will be enough.
Another way is you can buy 2 benches so you lay a plywood between them when you need much larger work area.

Its good enough to start already.
My work bench is just a 1 inch thick plywood.

After reading some info online, seems like this is not really Tung oil.
