DO I HATE THIS $2,431.74 Milwaukee M18 305mm Fuel Mitre Saw?

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

We've had this Milwaukee M18 Fuel 305mm Mitre saw for 6 months and we've really put it through it's paces.
Here's a detailed overview and review of what I like, what I thought I was going to struggle with and why it's a great replacement for our old DeWALT setup.
Big Powertools are key to our daily work, and this chop saw has become an essential member of the team.

    Nice video. I was blown away by the 12ah longevity. I bought one expecting to get another later to cycle between but just haven’t needed to it goes on forever for my needs. I have the smaller m18 saw and it’s absolutely awesome 👏🏻 👍🏻

    The makita drills do have bad chucks which is annoying, but I hear many stories of Milwaukee tools being sent for repairs. The quality is just not built to last. Plus I rather have light, smooth and quiet too and save my health that go for power and be handicap myself down the road

    Really impressive saw. Does it come with the shadow line? I understand that this may be missing from the UK versions...

    Yeah i have the flexvolt saw, can do 2 or 3 days with the 9ah, i think that these motors are much more suited for a dc voltage since all motos are and that is why corded saws give a big kick, that start up. The 15 amps is for the hard start of the motor and that is generally the highest draw, when running it isnt that high of an amps machine. Brushless is the way to go imho.

    I have the US version of this saw. Is nice but when building my pool deck this summer, the saw can’t run in the heat. The summer sun kept overheating the batteries. I had to keep several batteries in the shade and rotate them out after several cuts. Then remove the batter and keep it in the shade until ready to cut again. Not thrilled about that. Otherwise it sliced through the 2x12 beam lumber.

    You should try 190mm mighter saw... It's small, and light. Very portable specially when you have to drag it up the ladder somewhere and do some trim work. With 8ah battery last all week of... its crazy. BTW I've got both saws and With 12" had issues 3 times was in service 2 times electronics failure and 1 time I didn't even realise fence wasn't straight 😮 But when everything was sorted.... damn what a beast... I love it just like you do I would love to see your opinion on the little saw 190mm one

    Not been hands on with the smaller one and can't justify having 2, and given that often we have to cut large section timbers this seemed like the best option. Im sure the 190mm is a very good tool as well though.

    I have only two complaints, we had an electric failure after about a year of occasional light use the provided blade never even got dull, then Milwaukee wanted to not honor their warranty on a registered tool because the receipt had been misplaced, the repair center ultimately did have it fixed under warranty.

    You Got a fan now. Its so refreshing to watch a video about this, seemingly awesome product whithout the person talking about it, has to shout and scream about everything all the time. 👍🫶💪 Can you also do a video Of the bench/cart ? Kind regards Luis h.
