Power Tool Perverts

I pinched a bottle of Jizer from work about 5 years ago now and it’s still going strong.

Look at this outrageous stunt….

I’m scrolling along looking for a new orbital sander, of course I’m looking for the Milwaukee one @dann2707

And I very nearly click on this to add to basket due to just going on the colour…..

When did these chumps start making stuff in red?

What the actual f**k is that! I've just been sick in my mouth

Never fear, normal service resumed, but stay safe out there kids!

I think the bright red Makita stuff was originally Maktec which was a Makita spin out for cheaper stuff made in China, then a while back they dropped it and went back to it being Makita. So its likely shite.

 

[Archtronics]

I've got the red Makita belt sander and for the money it's pretty decent, they're basically the same as the blue tools but with less powerful motors, also come in green too.

Growing up all I saw was Makita, my dad and grandad always went straight for their stuff

My dad's still got his very first grinder from back when he was a teenager, it was made in the 70s or 80s. Back when they made tools to last

2004 then?

 

[Touring_Rob]

But yes their old stuff was amazing, my dad has an 80's angle grinder and its seen some serious action over the years, still quieter than all the new s**t. Have some 80's Wolf tools somewhere which seem brilliant compared to lots of stuff today.

Got this as I don't think the tiny mains powered scarifier I've got is going to work for the new lawn. My son loves it, helped put it together and fill it up with oil. My wife wasn't too impressed with us using the kitchen as a garage though 😂

Makita was the best going back to the late 90's early/2000's when i first started on the building sites. Elu/dewalt was then the nex excellent gear to buy until the brand basically turned into yellow sack and pecker.

Ill be needing to cut a rear qtr off a car soon. Milwaukee m18 recip man enough for it? Save f**k loads of angle grinder action.

 

[Touring_Rob]

I reckon you could just do it with a hack saw Brigsy.

Seen people cut cars up with a Milwaukee Sawzall.

They do a Super version now.

 

[Brigsy]

Tempted i chiselled a floor pan out of a car years ago, but need a bit more finesse /speed on this.

I generally use hand tools to save pissing about setting up power tools. Honestly when i was a joiner many years ago, all we had was hand tools and a cordless drill. Shared a hilti sds between us and nobody could be fucked lugging the transformer about to power it.

Arguably the quality of workmanship was acutally better too. See 10k's worth of power tools and shite fast fit these days.

Ill have a look..i need full kit as no m18 batteries. Need something quick ish as might be off a breaker so want to be in and out.

All about the blade really.

Decent blade for the job will make light work.

I’ve cut up 3 Clio shells and It cuts through it no bother, even the triple plated sections won’t slow it down.

I used a Diablo blade last time and did the whole shell with one blade, the thin ones like to bend.

 

[Brigsy]

Any links to the exact one? Will get one bought. I hate using grinders.

TS420 does the job for me🤣

Cant beat a stilly. All my mates have gone leccy stillies these days, bizarre seeing them graft with no noise and not pulling their arm off trying to get the thing fired up

Or telling the apprentice to try and bump start it 😂

Pretty sure it was this, they’re thick blades so not great if you want a super clean cut fyi.
I also hear good things about Milwaukees new torch blades.

The electric ones are a bit homo, you want your neighbours to know s***s about to go down when you fire up a 2stroke engine 😂

Agreed. Stilly life is about revving it like f**k with minimal cutting or letting it idle basically to annoy everybody.

The only noise that annoys everybody more than stilly is multi tool

Cheers mate. Sounds good to me, be ideal with a nice clean cut.

I only have to see the word and can hear the angry bee noise right in my f**king ear drums 😂😂😂

Same with a chainsaw. If you’re going to fell a tree you need people to know you’re doing it or it’s just a bit wet.








Ps I own an electric chainsaw. Take from that what you will x

I've got both, the electric one is so much easier to use and quicker when you've got a tree in the sawstand

But if you need to cut a lot of trees down, nothing beats petrol

You know when someone’s really had enough of something s**t when they spend £50 to replace the £2 thing 😂

Anyone got the power caulk gun, worth it?

 

[Touring_Rob]

I bought one for work years ago and it was decent, until some prick left an old tube in there which had leaked so bonded everything into one solid mass. Lazy pricks.

If you're doing a lot they are well worth it.

I've got a green Milwaukee one, it's fine, there's not as much control as a manual one but if you've got a lot to do then it is better.
