I also mentioned this on the patreon, but a tight sliding fit is exactly what you want on the rear bearing. The rotor must be constrained radially by the rear bearing but it must be free to slide axially to allow the rotor to expand and contract with temperature changes. Only the front bearing is used to locate the rotor axially. If both bearings are trying to locate the rotor axially you will get large axial loads on the bearings when the rotor gets nice and toasty.

The plastic identification on the outside of the casings these days might be a requirement (Europe maybe?) to ease in recycling.

You know you clicked on a good review video when hes rippin screws out before the 30 seconds mark. Love the vids AvE!

"Pass the slavings onto you!" classic AvE!

Here in the UK we have to put the material mark where its visible for recycling. Plastic over 100g that is.

Thanks for this. I was sitting on the fence on one of these as my current one has grown a wee bit long in the tooth. The compact size appealed to me, but I was really hesitant on if corners had been cut. I'm extremely impressed with the build quality, this was the final push I needed.

I was lucky enough to find this exact mini Sawzall at Home Depot (incorrectly priced on the clearance rack for $59 US). I didn't need one, however I couldn't pass it up for the price. Nice addition to the rest of my Makita 18v tool collection. Little sucker works great.

I've been really impressed with all of the 'sub compact' tools Makita has put out thus far. This saw particularly. Nice to see the innards, it feels plenty solid in use but seeing why this is so is reassuring. Would love to see you do a BOLTR on the sub compact rotary hammer. It has some kind of pneumatic impact mechanism which seems strange to me, but the thing works really well. For tapcons and sub 1/2" holes in concrete its the best rotary hammer I've used. Its as light, or lighter than others 12v tools to boot.

Big fan of Makita. I have Dewalt, Craftsman, Makita, and Milwaukee battery powered tools. I use my Makita, and Milwaukee tools at work in the aircraft industry. My Makita drill (5 years) and impact (10 years) have been indispensable. The only failure I've had was the charger after 5 years. The Milwaukee (1/4 drive ratchet) came about 3 years ago. Awesome tool and well used without problems. My Dewalt (5 years) and Craftsman (8 years) drills are home use and so far no problems, but have never been used in harsh ways. I do a lot of research before I make a purchase and luckily its worked for me.

Great video, your knowledge is appreciated. It’s nice 👍 you assume viewers have a basic understanding. The manufacturing process description is always interesting. Bling on the outside does not equal guts on the inside. I’ve been a planker 50+ years. The boarding vids are a nice touch.

Its not just your full teardown of tools,but your canuckistanium lingo and jargon that keeps me coming back.AVE is the king of this.thx man

These makita subcompact sawzall are great, mine gets used constantly, even used it for cutting up tree branches and roots. The small size makes it a seriusly usefull tool. I dont bother with my full size sawzall now for site work.

The big aluminum and potted controller is almost certainly the motor controller. You can't see mosfets on the potted side because they are probably mounted to the other side of the board and pressed up to the aluminum heatsink for dissipation. Then there are the three thick wires for the three phase to the BLDC motor.

Brother, you just sold me a sawzall. (Once my hazard fraught one dies, that is)

I once bought 30 Milwaukee hand drills for my guys in NYC. After having each guy sign for them they went on their merry way. After about 40 some days the shop steward set up a meeting with me to inform me that the drills do not conform to their union guidelines and would all have to be returned. I asked him why he waited all this time to tell me and his reply was " I just took mine out of the box and noticed the problem". The "problem" was that it had a hold down trigger and this was unsafe in the union's eyes. Sooo I sent out a message to the guys that they would have to return the "problem drills". Well ( I hope your still with me ) the drills started to come back. Forget about the boxes, forget about the beautiful gleaming chucks the nice red handles now I had a pile of used equipment, all signed with their names, on the handles, with permanent marker. Needless to say the vendor would not take them back. My gorillas are lighter then yours weighting in about 250 lbs. We are talking about union steam fitters. Well how did it turn out ? They received the new union approved drill plus their "used" drill, for home use only ! Except for the shop steward, I was able to return his, with the box and he did received the new approved drill !!!
