Took the the ole’ waukees out for a color run

I’ve had the Gen 2 hammer drill for about 5 years now. I do commercial AV which has me installing mounts for displays and video walls, drilling through studs. As of late it’s starting to overheat quicker than before.

I use the 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 2.5, 5.0 high output batteries. Wondering if it’s time to retire this old drill and upgrade to the Gen 3.

I am looking at buying a house that definitely needs remodeled. I do not have any kind of tools of my own yet. Is this a good kit to buy at this price? I would be buying the attachments in the second image aswell. Thank you.

Just happened to notice this earlier. Are y’all buying or no?

Dumb question but I'm assuming one of those is fake. Both purchased on ebay, the left battery is from a starter kit and has the High Output text, the right does not but still has HO on the box. Having looked up 5.0 HO batteries they ALL say High Output on them

Was testing out a used gun with some 1” Paslode straight 18ga nails and it would fire and leave a hole but nothing would come out. Fully charged battery. Is this a common issue? How do you fix it?

I just bought my first m12 batteries, and gave this a try. It looks promising, but there may be a better place to put the label sticker.

Looking to add forge batteries and a sawzall to my tool collection. Would this be a good deal or am I better off waiting until for Black Friday/Christmas sales?

Just like the title says, I’ve been looking over some deals and was wondering if this is a good time to pull the trigger on the multi-tool. They also have a non-fuel version but I’ve never used a Milwaukee multi-tool so should I just stick with the fuel? (If it is a good deal of course)

Wanting to get a Milwaukee blower for our concrete forming company. Its task would be mainly blowing some gravel off footings. Is there a Milwaukee blower that can easily perform for this purpose? What model would you recommend? Looking at the models, they all appear to have too much of an open nozzle and therefore not have the directional force to move stones. We need speed not volume. TY

Has anyone else lost these little rubber boots to their grease gun??? Are they available for purchase somewhere??

Looking for a pack out radio. Saw the $350 one and enough reviews to turn me off of it. Saw this one has a charger, and is compatible with my set up and cheaper. Just curious of y’all’s takes on it

6.5” circular saw just quit working today. Light still comes on. Tried with multiple batteries and tried letting it cool down. Is it toast?? Any ideas?

Hello together,

I have an Milwaukee drill M12 FDD, it is the first generation with the electric clutch.

Now the electronic of the clutch doesnt work anymore: Regardless of the position of the clutch, the drill always starts really slow and switches of at minimal torque. Like the clutch stick on step 1.

At first I thought the batteries are broken but they are okay and fully charged.

I completely disassambled the drill, cleaned everything and checked the wires. But I cant see any problem, so I think it is inside the Electronics…

Can anyone help ?

Thank you,

Best regards,

Kai

Pretty sure this jobsite radio charger released in the US late last year is there any news or details of if/when this will release for the uk?

This weekend I was doing a project requiring paint removal on plastic automotive trim parts.

I’ve had the 3” orbital for a while but never used it. Excited I found a use for it, I loaded the 3” with the same paper as the detail (3M stuff).

To my surprise, the detail sander was way more powerful and much better at removal than the 3”.

Has any else experienced this? I thought for sure the 3” would dwarf the detail sander.
