Dagnabbit! That's another good buy! Either you are lucky, or you are plugged in to the industry. laugh.gif
My 4+ year review of the M12 Fuel rotary hammer? Absolutely brilliant for holes up to 12 mm, especially when working overhead or the whole day.

PS : If you are plugged in to the industry.... I'm looking for a M12 Fuel drill driver so I don't have to carry different batteries when I go offshore, as I already carry the Milwaukee soldering iron.
If you can let me know if got jalan please.....  blush.gif
*
yea i kind of know the group people who sells these things to kitchen cabinet/aircon installers/mechanics so they break up promo packages and sell them individually.

ahh... that m12 fuel driver, yesterday one got sold for 420-430 i think it was a quick 1hour bidding thing among those members. biggrin.gif

since i am not really a milwaukee hardcore..so i just gather some m12 things as they are light and powerful combo, the other fellas all go for hardcore m18 9.0ah battery kind of tools..hahaha.. cant be bothered buying those.

Thanks a bunch sifus! I'll go check them out

lavie one is quite good, but i have like 10 -12from them at half price because a few carpenters i know, ordered the wrong bit sizes. some bought 8mm or 6mm for the shank.
you should choose 6.35 (1/4) inch if it suits your router.. or else you cant used them. so i offer to buy them half price since i got like 5-6 different size routers

Where can I get this kind of thick hose ?

Yesterday try to use the Worx hydroshot. Press the trigger and the water shot out from the trigger side and also when directly into the battery. Water flow out from the battery.

Thought the inner trigger valve seal spoiled. Open up and then pull the trigger valve out, the hose break. Look like the hose is brittle already from age. That's probably water leak out.

Now try to see able to change the hose.

But the most expensive is the 4.0AH battery. Might spoiled. cry.gif  Try put in silica to dry out. Hopefully. sweat.gif

whats this obsession with sticking with one platform..lol..

for carpentry, i have 3-4 battery platform, each brand has its strong points , so i usually use milwaukee, makita, dewalt n ryobi, sorry no bosch cos when something chop "professional" on their tool.. usually not so pro biggrin.gif

BTW, do you do wood turning? A customer of mine wants to refurbish a vintage dough press (kinda looks like a large syringe), that needs a new plunger turned from a hardwood. I don't have turning equipment, and lazy to make a jig for my table saw. Would you be interested?

yes i have a lathe in the shop which use to make table legs.

if u have a sketch of the shape and dimensions, i can see if we can make it and how much it cost.

Ryobi cucuk Milwaukee battery

kalau ppl tengok your crew dtg terus chop PROFESSIONAL (like Bosch Professional, j/k bro, haha)

Imagine i have many times, contractor datang bawa those rm80 drill for screw, then sambung wire tap to make the cord longer, and at the end, tarak plug

Pro shialllll
*
yea, i purposely use milwaukee batteries with my ryobi (the adapter can fit both dewalt n milwaukee) cos i see many milwaukee users always bring their packout and drills to site. and all they do is basic impact driver, screw driver contractor skills only... very less craftsman work at site. just wanna show low end ryobi also can get some results done.

i wont say ryobi low grade la, like the standard entry level bosch la. even a china chisel will work wonders at the hand of an experienced ppl

power tool saja, powering through

respect boss!

but i would have to stand firm that higher end bosch line is hebattt, just so mahal and ppl are so used to the entry level bosch, like SEIKO and GRAND SEIKO kind of thing, Speaking From a five battery platform person
*
actually i dont see any thing great about the "professional" blue bosch series. at least not in woodworking. makita is way better, and festool/mafell at the top of the price chain... maybe contractor level ok la they hebat. professional contractor. if there is such a thing. hahaha

for me, i view ryobi as low end cos i also use festool/makita combo for wood working. so if ryobi is low end from my angle., then those china brands are like disposable brands. laugh.gif

For example the GCM 18V-305, GBH 18V-26, GBH 18V-45, all those higher end PROFESSIONAL

The other BOSCH professional bikin malu saja, itu I agree.

BUT if i ahve to spend that much monet, id rather go someplace else, you can get quality MAKITA cheaper than those higher range BOSCH.

But then MAKITA line ada juga I dont suka sgt, flooded, and they now pergi XGT system. Rotary hammer dia lemah, table and mitre saw dia lemah (last i remember like no deisgn change), but circular hebat.

But im outdated la, last tool i bought was the Milwaukee nailer i think, baru fired like 20,000 nails.
*
those things not skilled user machines. just picit and drill hole. why need to say for professional hold and use it? lol.

makita miter saw (newer models) is way better than bosch glide thing. lots of flex after some time. linear rails are still more reliable.

makita table saw, abit cheapo china grade design. bosch is better. but then i dont really use contractor grade table saw.

track saw,. makita is way better only below festool.

anyway, at the end, we see end result of products made. if drilling holes is great, ok bosch wins, other things especially in carpentry, dont see any superior results from people using bosch yet. not at least locally
