Guys, need some opinion before I proceed to buy.

I'm getting cordless impact drill, probably 12V or 18V to get my job done. Question is should I go for 400~700 bucks brushes motor or 1.5k above for brushless motor?

I heard it last longer by 10x? But I'll be using it for DIY projects only. So I won't using it frequently.

Opp, Sorry.

I forget that 12v do have impact drill.  blush.gif

Cause for me, 12v impact drill mostly for screw driven. Not means for concrete and wall drill. Cause it have no punch.

I have the Makita 12v impact drill.  biggrin.gif

I not sure.

Since it have no screw hole for brush to be taken out, it should be brushless kua ?
*
I think both also can be taken out. Difference is brushes will have some sparks when running sometimes. Brushless produce 0 spark.

Thanks anyway, probably I'll just go for normal brushes one. More than 1.5k for a impact driver is kinda waste, since you can't drill wall with it. I can get another hammering cord drill with that amount of money.

DIY projects don't really need brushless, you don't need the extra runtime offered by brushless motor.
Its not like you will be using the drill for 6 hours non stop.
*
Thanks for the feedbacks. I'll just go for top quality brand's brushes motor, either Hitachi or Makita.

If you don't mind using not mainstream brand, you can conside this worx brand.
Many interesting design for home DIY use.
ALso it runs on more powerful 18V system.
Worx tool is available in USA, Europe and China, Malaysia don't have many options to buy.

If you have access to taobao and can read chinese...
1) worx 18V rotary hammer + drill driver set. About RM800
You stay in condo I assume you wall will be concrete, GSB will have difficulty drilling into concrete. I have a Bosch GSB18V so I know...
With this set you will have a 5hr charger & 2 18V 2AH batteries.
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10...d=3362899268098

2) Worx 18V jigsaw + sabre saw combination, solo unit. About RM450
Don't expect accuracy like a Bosch GST18V but you get 2 tool in one, don't complain lor.
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10...100200300000000

3) Worx 18V circular saw, solo unit. About RM350.
Can cut multiple materials by changing blades. Can cut wood max deep is 27mm.
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10...d=3422722470320

All price exclude transport to Malaysia. You need to get 3rd party forwarder to send to Malaysia, sea freight is about rm5.50 per kg, need 1 month to arrive.
If you need to know how the tool perform, youtube and amazon review has the info.

Since you're into woodworking, you will need a sander and a vacuum/cyclone to handle the wood dusts.  biggrin.gif
*
There is a worx reseller/agent at jln kebun, klang. No need to import in.

But I'm not really confident with it as it has very less review. Mind to share your experiences.

Hi guys, wanna ask Ikea thing can do the justice?
http://www.ikea.com/my/en/catalog/products/00232905/

Wanted other more mainstream brand but the lady said "Ikea looks nicer". sad.gif

Anyway, can you guys recommend me something for general usage?
E.g pasang Ikea stuffs, sometime change power outlet socket, and etc etc small house maintenance.

Thanks in advance.

Like the one we were discussing is actually better than Ikea's IMO. https://shopee.com.my/Bosch-GO-Kit-i.12851682.522848725

I think you just missed the boat, it was buy 1 free 1 @ RM180 yesterday.

Hi guys, anyone using B&D stuffs?

Saw this set on Ace Hardware selling at around RM307 ish.
http://www.powertools.my/index.php/en/shop...l-driver-detail
[attachmentid=9241648]
[attachmentid=9241649]

Just about to masuk new house and wanted to keep a set of tools for the household.
Also mainly usage for the 1st few weeks is to assemble some IKEA stuffs and drill some holes for photo frames and wall racks.

Any opinion for this?

Thanks.

I seen that set too. It looks cheap in quality but for 300 bucks, you're getting a machine. So, it really depends what you want.

If you're looking for something reliable, better get some other brand's hand tool like stanley and bosch, etc for drilling machine.

Any place to buy reliable vernier calipers? I saw few stainless steel body for 150mm at taobao but no buyer. Abit sked..

I visited few hardware shops, their calipers are tend to misaligned at certain point due to poor workmanship.

Use mainly for what ? And quality prefer ?

Mainly for small projects only, like measure & mark for hole drilling. Quality wise, as long as the jaw won't misalign is good enough.

I mean the accuracy.  0.02, 0.05, 0.1.

If you don't require that accurate like 0.1, than the china wan is ok. Look for carbide tips if you always use for mark hole or line.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/200mm-8-Dig...2311.0.0.Hkp3fs

If you want like 0.02, than look for japan Mitutoyo.

Around 0.5 accuracy should be enough for me. I never know there are carbide tip calipers hmm.gif

Btw, any idea how much is mitutoyo's? I heard it's going to be RM300+

2.6K include delivery is cheap.
The one I look at (300W CNC+ 3D printer) costs 4.5K.
Summore only 300mm x 200mm x 100mm area only

https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....&id=26617688129

This one is 3D printer + engraving only? I don't think engraving can cut more than 1mm in a single cut right?

hmm.gif hmm.gif

But the price seems tempting.. demm..

It comes with 2 heads.
One head for CNC milling and 1 head for 3D printing. You need to manually change the head to switch between CNC & 3D printing.

Whether to cut 1mm or not I think it depends on the power of the motor?
They have models from 300W to cut plastic/softwood to 2.2kw that can cut jade/rock.
*
hmm.gif Yeah.. there is a calculation which require motor power, rpm, feed speed to the material hardness. I don't quite remember it, probably need to google it. If motor power is low then you need to reduce feed speed and cut lesser material per cut.

2.2kw cost 7200CYEN? Sorry, I can't read chinese.

Why convert when you can buy a cheap bosch grinder below RM90~150?

Much more safer & reliable.

It comes with PC software if you want to install and control the CNC from your own PC. Interface is parallel port.

The 4th axis is a stepper motor that you install on the table so you can carve a cucumber, sylinder rod.
*
What you mean is the whole table rotate 360° viewed from top?

So you have bought the machine?

don't ever do this.

angle grinder with wood cutting disc attachment. this is stuff of nightmare.

read dis for some insight. can google for images too,

Huh? Never know about that, normally my workers would just use grinder at sites because it's lighter and mobile. For thicker or larger amount of wood then sabre saws will be used.
