Wah.
You guys didn't open the trigger and order replacement parts for it?

Should've sold to me cheap cheap I didn't have to buy this unit.

got my new addition last week.



it's the new bosch rotary hammer.

i was hoping for a smaller size compared to my makita.
the makita is quite long and front heavy. tried a cordless bosch rotary hammer and felt like its smaller and shorter.


but this is about the same size as the makita. sigh.
should've bought the compact v-li one as that is very small. easier to use on a ladder.

oh well

out of the box and onto the shelf.

The bosch has a more balanced weight. And shorter overall length.

But the power delivery is not linear.
Its like the tool has a soft start control. 50% of the button deliver 25% of the power.
Thus makita feels like it has more power compared to the bosch.

tagging vassilius to see my poorfag kelisa.
been stranded for 2 weeks can't find time to finish the color basecoat.

manage to get smooth clear surface using one of the better guns.
later i upload a picture.

CT Hardware Old Klang Road will be having a roadshow next week.

Taobao got 3 day sale for Worx WX423 saw @rm230, free 2 blade for laminate & tile
Use it to cut smaller things on the worktop so no need to power up the noisy tablesaw.

To buy or not to buy... hmm....

Meet the newest member of the (garage) family


Now my garage is complete.
Oh wait don't have sliding compound saw yet

i decided to bai the mini grinder. where to get it cheapest?

i have the 18v already. but its too big to fit into that small space to cut off some m16 bolts

heck, u cant even fit an arm in that tight space. hahaha

multi cutter is shit. i run down 2 expensive blades (rm60 each) and not even half of the bolt thread is cut.

a sabre saw will be too big to fit. if i use a hack saw blade, it will take me 6 hours

the last job i had was hack and hack and brutal hack to shear off that bolt. it took me 4 hours just to remove that 1 last damn bolt.

this is the damage to my arm. i have to cut 2 16mm box wrench to try to unbolt the nut, which takes about 1 turn / every 30 mins. LoL




luckily the bosch 18v grinder is sort of nearly waterproof. quite a lot of water seeped into the vents (i was trying to detach a water cooling coil) and luckily the motor did not stop working

very deep, luckily can still reach within an arm length. it's the bolt at the floor pan. i can't take off the side panel because there is a heating coil sandwiched in between, and opening it risk damage to the delicate fins. hahah

how narrow? let's say i have to cut off the pipe header at several sections just to make space for my arm to go in 

A very interesting push to turn screwdriver from Bosch.
Bosch GO cordless screwdriver

I have the older version of IXO II screwdriver for more delicate work on computer/electronics too. 
No one borrow so won't go missing.

anyone got a band saw?
thinking of getting this. rm800 locally without battery. any comment?

trying to avoid table band saw because of space.

where buy ? how much did u get the solo unit for ?

now a man have to wait for his deliveries..

aaarrghhhh

GWS 10.8V-76 is worth every ringgit paid. Cut short my work time by 4 hours!

As usual, guard is removed for this job (you'll see why later)



verdict: the name is misleading. it's a cutting tool, not an angle grinder. to make up for the lack of torque, it is given very high speed (19,500rpm). so you have to genly work your way into the bolt

can cut an m16 bolt easily. i expected the 76mm disc to be used up for 2 bolts, but after severa; bolts, i can see only 3 - 5mm of the disc were shaved off. battery consumption is massive. 1ah batt wont be a good choice. 2 bolts and you exhaust the battery

verdict? this will be my favorite metal cutting tool liao. GWS18v-Li can take a backseat.

my new toys..

Hi sifu-sifu, been going through this thread for the past couple of days. Just starting out with home woodworking. Need your advice on my next purchase. I have a bosch 12v drill and I want to purchase a saw next. Am looking at the 12v jigsaw GST-12v and the GKS-12v circular saw. Which on should i get first considering I'll be doing most of my woodworking things right in front of my front door since I live in an apartment. Prior to this I have been using handtools. I'm considering a cordless one cause I can bring it down to the yard at the back of the apartment to do some cutting where there are no power supply access. I'll be cutting mostly salvaged pallet boards and beams.
