Bosch also okay to purchase online via pee pee/lapsapda, just ensure the online seller is the online portion of an actual brick and mortar bosch dealer should be okay. The bosch website does publish a list of their dealers

dear sifus,

planner to buy a cordless drill for normal screwing and occasionally drilling job on furniture and walls.
I am aware there are many brands and available. Any recommendation on particular model with minimal issue and maintenance easier (brushless type)?

For occasional use, even brush type can last for years. They are cheaper too. Maintenance is not an issue either brushed or brushless actually.

Just buy any brand that you can get service easily and branded one has many service center throughout the country. I would just go for those on sales and cheaper among those brands with similar feature

thanks for your help.

I guess brand B is probably the 1 i should go for. Most common model should be GSB 120-LI

Light usage GSB120 or so should be alright as long as not drilling concrete walls
As I remember for Makita cordless + BL (brushless) these are expensive tools coz brushless

yeah. just normal usage. I do have a wired hammer drill set for concrete but seldom use.

I checked, brushless type generally more expensive.

Bosch have some new series of powertools. YOUseries.

Mainly target household user.

Look nice design. Probably 12v series.




Bosch YOUseries

The battery casing format is compatible with the normal blue bosch?

Target probably rich man toys, who probably owned one but call other people to do the job

Don't think so.

Look at the battery pack size, I think it use 20650. It is a single battery rate at 3.6v, 4.0ah.

The advantage is, it can direct charge with USB. Battery pack built in USB charger.

It is lady toys.

Design slicker and smooth.

This week on Fun With Wood

last week potong the mix of Keruing and Kapur and woweeee first time jumpa such a troublesome wood.

It bogged my saws due to the resin still in the wood despite drying for months. The resin pushed out by static pressure of the saw, like squezzed lemon. Mcm my blade sudah bye bye.

Sorry, noob, first time jumpa resinous wood. Red balau even borneo ironwood no issue before.

Hi all,
would like to ask where to get those trim router (straight bits) for 6.35mm diameter shank.. other than pee pee/lapsapda.

Are these commonly stocked at hardware shops?

Hi,
would like to get advice from you guys.
I have cement slab roof type with crack and it leaks.
Saw some video for repair the crack which require to make is bigger before repair can be done.

I was wondering is that tool called as angle grinder?
If yes i need some recommendation on the basic type for me to cut the concrete.I am thinking of Bosch GWS 060 Angle Grinder.

Please advice.

Thank you.

Yes GWS060 is good enough. Angle grinder is dangerous tool. You can find variations with the ori handle, and also some c/w ori bosch discs.

You will need to use a grinding disc (thick one that looks like 5 DVD stuck together), not the thin cutting disc (thin like one DVD disc) if you're grinding on the flat side.

Why this is important? https://www.nortonabrasives.com/en-us/resou...ing-vs-grinding

It have a Dyson style of get dust out from the bin. Press the button and the bottom cover flung open.

That is how small the size. The ON/OFF switch at the side handle and bin push button on the surface. the bin at the bottom with MAX sign.





Only 2 accessories come together. It can be keep in the vacuum unit. ( 2 hole). The hose have a magnet that when you keep it back in the handle, it will snap.


The accessories have an extension hose that is rubberise material. Good for narrow and bend space. Also won't scratch surface. Best for car vacuum.

RM260 with a battery? Thats a good price.

No la. Included battery where got so cheap.

Excluded battery and charger.

I have the Worx Hydroshot with battery. So I use that battery.

But 2Ah battery only can run 15min or less for high mode.

Maybe DIY strap a higher Ah 18650 battery on it.

That small how much dust can collect?

is it good suction as compare to bosch gas vacuum cleaner?
