  1. 🥴🤦‍♂️ Oh, the #irony of getting blocked by a #security service while trying to read about the #decline of #power tools! Apparently, understanding who owns #DeWalt, #Craftsman, and Milwaukee is as elusive as finding a power drill that lasts longer than your patience. 🔧🔒

  2. Finally got the stuff to make our garden gate with. Missus reserved us a saw from the tool library. I wasn't expecting something this big. As an inexperienced operator it took me an hour to work out all the adjustments and safety locks etc #DeWalt #Saw #DIY

  3. Vanochtend vergeten om met mijn #DeWalt boormachine-in-koffer de kledingkast weer te barricaderen; alle schoonmaakdoekjes hebben zich somehow weer een weg naar buiten weten te manoeuvreren. 😹😹

  4. @jonathanharker Yeah, checked TradMe. Lots of XR stuff. XRP are the professional version, much bigger battery pack format and totally incompatible. Yes, I can get an adaptor but I'll be buggered if I'm buying #DeWalt again.

  5. Dear Lazyweb. I have quite the collection of #DeWalt XRP tools. They're currently useless. This is because a power surge took out my lithium XRP charger and these as far as I can tell are complete unobtainium.

    So, seeking advice on a non-DeWalt tool line to replace them with. I will, of course, be making adaptors. But I want to use batteries from a manufacturer that won't fuck me over like this so that as the tools die I can buy replacements from someone else.

  6. I'd get it in #Dewalt as well so if you have experience with the #Mellif 40v Dewalt-compatible version, it's valuable information! If Moxxi's YouTube channel was larger and I was willing to bend the theme of the channel a little, I'd ask them to send me one, ha! #Snow #Winter #Canada

  7. Update on my six month old #dewalt drill that developed a directional instability.

    After I finally found their customer service their help was just to point me to their local service centre. So I had to drive across town to bring it in. It was still under warranty and today I picked up the repaired item after a motor and switch replacement.

    Glad it was repaired, but disappointed that it failed and that they didn't make warranty coverage more effortless.

  8. Further on that #Dewalt product - I filled out an online form, and they got back to me with confirmation it was still under warranty and gave me the address of their local service centre.

    I guess it gets fixed rather than replaced. I just have to drive it out to the far reaches of the opposite end of town. Maybe later this week.

    Then I'm without my drill for a few weeks no doubt. Glad I have some working backups, but still – not what I paid for. :(

  9. I have lotsa #DewaltTools which I've found to be decent. Some are 25+ yrs old. Last winter I needed to replace some batteries so decided to move to try a new ecosystem. I ended up staying w #Dewalt, and their 20V lithium batts.

    One of the tools I acquired was a drill that had been fine, but recently become annoying. It spontaneously switches direction! What a hassle. You think you're removing a screw then it decides to go the other direction! Yikes!

    Let's see how their #customerService is!

  10. @3dprinting I cut the hole in the FilaBilly Humidor's side today. I used it as an excuse to get a new toy-- er, tool for the workshop. Jigsaws have come a long way since my 1985 model.

  12. As promised - #3Dprinting enthusiasts and #woodworking people of all ages - here is my handy little blade holder for your #jigsaw (if you own a #DeWalt).

    I realized that it's a hassle to find a mounting screw for the thing if you don't have one handy from the cutting fence attachment, so I added a little pop-in split pin that seems to work very well and only looks slightly penis-like (not intentional - form follows function, what can I say).

  13. <
    Mi è arrivato il motore nuovo, 9 euro spedito dalla Cina
    Ma il mio stupore non è per questo, quanto il fatto che praticamente sia IDENTICO all'originale

    Temo che se avessi preso un #makita o #DeWalt, sempre lo stesso motore ci stava sopra...

    Detto questo: il motore di destra è il nuovo, quello di sinistra è bruciato

    Il problema ora è rimuovere la ruota dentata sull'albero del vecchio a sinistra

    Si accettano suggerimenti, vediamo

  14. Hmmm... toolnerds know why 😅 🤠
    I guess I'm team Red/Milwaukee when I check my gear 👌

  15. Since is still selling in Russia ( som.yale.edu/story/2022/over-1 ) we've switched to tools, but we have lots of Makita batteries. I recommend this adapter from the usual online sources: "Waitley Battery Adapter for Makita 18V conversion compatible with Dewalt 18V / 20V Power Tools". It works great, and includes both USB-A with QC3 and USB-C with PD fast charging ports.
