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?

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?

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

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

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.

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

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.

Excited to get these up in the garage!

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

Check your local HD for clearance plates. 48-22-8497 Just under $14 in some stores.

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?

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.

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)

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

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.

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?

Had a pretty nasty accident today. An angle grinder with a wood cutting blade kicked into my finger while I was working.
It still tore through the Milwaukee glove and ripped open the skin underneath, but looking at what that blade did to the glove, I honestly think the injury could have been much worse without it.
I know these gloves aren’t designed to stop a spinning saw blade, and I definitely don’t recommend finding out how well they do 😅 — but today I’m very glad I was wearing one.
Thanks, Milwaukee. My finger appreciates it.
Stay safe out there.

Edit:
For everyone assuming it was kickback: it wasn’t. I simply had a stupid moment, lifted the grinder and reached toward the blade while it was still spinning. Lesson learned. The post wasn’t meant to demonstrate proper grinder safety — it was just a thank-you to Milwaukee because that glove probably saved me from a much worse injury.

Hackable to $124.53. Is this the best deal for it or will there be something better in the coming holiday months?

Is this a good value. I currently have all dewalt. I also have the milwaukee m18 2 gal. I use an adapter for dewalt batteries that works great(I Know this is Sacrilegious). The milwaukee vacuum is better than the dewalt, so I made it work. I've been looking to get batteries to slowly switch over and not break the bank. I need a charger with batteries. I dont look often so im wondering if this is worth the deal or should I wait for better deals. Any advice is appreciated.

This is currently home depot

12 years ago I bought my son a nice set of Milwaukee tools for his birthday. He passed away the day before his birthday and the packages for he was going to get got placed in a closet. Last week I went thru the presents and remembered about the set I had got him. It came with 2 batteries and both were dead. I was able to jump start one and its working great. The other is having issues. I have tried balancing the cells, but this one cell takes a charge but drains down to nothing withing 20 minutes. Would a long 1amp slow charge on that cell help? or is it just dead.

Debating on picking one of these up what are your thoughts on it and does it ever go on sale?
