Thread: Just a FYI

Those are top notch drills.

Hope the new is as good as the old one, those old ones you have are some work horses!!

Thats good stuff Sammy.....I am a DeWalt man myself....always got good service out of them. I have a Makita corded recipicateing saw and a circular saw. Everything else is pretty much DeWalt except for my table saw which is a Riged and my joiner which is a Craftsman.

I still use Dewalt because I have 6 different things that run of the 18v batt. Them things Sammie has are about half the weight of a 18v XRP Dewalt, like them just as well and that weight adds up by the end of the day.

Yep.....good thing is.....when I get tired of holding mine I can just lay it down and walk away

Much as you put one through, has to be one heck of a drill. I put mine through fence building this past weekend. Bout 250, 2" screws and 20-25 3 1/2 inchers. LOVE a hammer drill

Buddy does carpentry work and we would fight over the makita when I would help him... When you Spend a little more up front ya don't have to replace it every time ya change drawers! Wonder how many miles your old drill had on it? Haha
