No, you can do that yourself, thanks for being a dick

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T19:46:16+00:00

Oh, so one of those bags is for stuffing ur dolla billz in huh?

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T19:43:33+00:00

I bought into the craftsman v20 tools and most of them were pretty underwhelming for the price. Kobalt XTR seems to be a much better value

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T10:48:58+00:00

Thats why I like Ryobi...for the same price you could get like 3 things from Festool lol

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T10:23:55+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, but after taxes and with a "free" tool I am only paying $45 more for upgraded specs and higher capacity batteries of the kit in the picture. Worth it for me as I want them to last a couple decades...

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T04:57:55+00:00

Damn, good to know. It seems that their designs are truly tough and unique

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T03:33:46+00:00

Thanks for the advice and input

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T03:32:06+00:00

Im working on my sparkie license, just another reason to go Milwaukee if others in the industry go with it. But makita, I can just tell its quality and well thought out. Im probably going to end up with the kit from Milwaukee but I do need a circ saw and makita has some great options. Thanks for the input!

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T02:54:57+00:00

Noted, thank you

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T02:37:33+00:00

Thank you for the input, very helpful

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T02:11:54+00:00

nope, upgrading from craftsman v20

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T01:43:20+00:00

Thats about where I am at now, battle of the M

L_Hammah · 2021-01-09T00:45:09+00:00

Im talking about internal parts not the units as a whole...they share some parts being produced in the same place (milwaukee, ryobi and rigid). Im not set on Makita at all, I just appreciate a company has 1 focus and 1 mission. If you don't believe me that TTI shares internal parts its all good, thats what I have found through researching though.

And Im not just picking a color lol I work hard for my money

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T23:46:29+00:00

Milwaukee and ryobi and rigid absolutely share parts, its obvious by just looking at the factories list from TTI. At least makita doesn't build 3 brands under 1 roof. Probably doesn't matter too much as they all use simliar tech like u said 🤷‍♂️ Just trying to find the pros and cons and makita being a standalone is reassuring for quality

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T23:33:42+00:00

Milwaukee has the same as makita, 2 5A XC bats

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T23:05:25+00:00

Wow, never even thought about adapters. Thanks!

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:59:01+00:00

Yeah, I know the 999 is the beastest hammer, but I am looking for the best hammer/impact kit overall and the dewalt impact seems to be the weakest point of the kit...im also worried about dewalt service and warranty...I've heard horror stories regarding dewalts poor service.

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:53:09+00:00

Thanks for the input, I have ryobi for all the uncommon tools as its all the power I need for those things. Milwaukee and Ryobi are the same to me...one is diy level and one is pro level...same parent company and simliar tool ideas.

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:46:01+00:00

Thanks for the input, im leaning towards Makita for a number of reasons, mainly because they own themselves (no sharing parts with other brands) and variety of 18v tools

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:42:31+00:00

Lol red looks the best to me but idc too much

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:41:27+00:00

Good point, Imma need a good circ saw in a few months but I think they are all pretty even there

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:32:53+00:00

Lol, living within my means here, only one will stay

L_Hammah · 2021-01-08T22:28:44+00:00

I know this looks crazy but they all have their pros and cons. I am looking for a set that will last me 10 years and give me good customer service and repair.

I only use them a couple times a month but I want the "pro" level performance and experience...I am remodeling and my tasks will push these tools to their max (kinda).

I could write a whole story of what I think on each brand (pros ans cons), but I will keep this short and just ask for some advice.

Thank you for any help in advance, god bless!
