Re: Tool purchases
For the same reason you don't put a fine edge on a wood chisel with a concrete paver.

Re: Tool purchases
I've only played with this for 5 minutes but this is my new favourite tool...
It's a milwaukee cordless m12 portable bandsaw. Definitely didn't need it as I have a hacksaw but it cuts through steel and aluminium like butter. It cut that steel box section in a couple of seconds. Very pleased indeed and will definitely make cutting metal less painful (arthritis in fingers).
I've a few M12 milwaukee tools now and very impressed with all of them.

Re: Tool purchases
My nephew, apprentice electrician, loves his M12 kit, the cut off saw and heated jacket are particularly good. He barely picks his M18 kit up these days as the M12 is as capable as the higher voltage kit whilst being much lighter for all day use.dern wrote: ↑Tue Aug 06, 2024 5:15 pm I've only played with this for 5 minutes but this is my new favourite tool...

Cordless 1/2" router...
Oh, were you expecting it to be battery powered? It's definitely cordless though.

Watched it the other day, interesting build (although after watching three versions of the tambour door I ran out of time and went to work) with some amazing details.MrLongbeard wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2024 11:07 pm One of those came up in a video I watched yesterday.
