Actually this whole operation only took one bar out of four on the battery, I could have taken 3 more down on the same charge. This drill keeps impressing me. Thanks for watching and following along.

Hi Jamie, and thanks for watching! How's it going - lockdown again?

Thanks 👍that would be cool. The drill is just fine though. How are you?

@@JesperMakes Thanks for asking my friend. Actually I am off my feet because I had a little accident (did I tell you about this already?) and twisted my knee quite badly. I've been wearing a splint to immobilize my leg and let the torn ligament heal. Another week and I can take it off and start physiotherapy. Until then I must sit very still and stay very bored. Oh well...

@@MarkMcCluney Yeah I head about your knee, and you're usually the first to make a comment on a new video, so I thought you might still be immobilized. Hope the physiotherapy get's you going again soon. Take care.

Thanks 👍

Wow, thank you Luke!

Sometimes you've gotta be a little daring, right? 😂 Ever had a project that made you question your life choices?

@@JesperMakes 😂😂😂😂 every single one so far

sounds like you're living on the edge with every project!

Thanks - I have taken good care of it...

That would be one big beaver 🦫.. 😁😁

Thanks 🙏🙏

Hi Dave, this was a fun experiment, nothing else. And a good test of the drill.

Thanks 🙏

Thanks John, it was fun to try it (so normal functioning people don't have to ;-)

Thanks 👍 Mehmet. It was a fun experiment, and actually much easier than I thought it would be. I have no plans to keep going down that road, don't worry.

@@JesperMakesYeah. it was a fun video. I already know it won't go on like that :-) take care my friend. See you.

We have looots of maple here.

It works for me ;-)

@@JesperMakes A beast for a beast! 😁

This was funny, just had to try it...

If you think some up, please let me know and I'll try them out 🤠

I have never tried the 18v tools from Makita, but I now have a few of them in the 40v range, and they just never run out of muscle and power. So happy about them. I'm never flying with my tools, so I'm not to worry about that.

Now thats crossed off the list of things I want to try!

Spoiler: Jesper always wins against trees... eventually. Thanks for watching!

😂 I love it

Hi Juliet, I'm fine, really :-). This was a little dumb experiment, and the video came out being more serious than what really went on, I have no plans for felling more trees with drills, hehe. With that said, it was remarkable easy, the auger is brilliant at removing material fast, and the drill is such a workhorse. I can't believe it only took one bar on the battery to cut down the tree. How are you, and what are you up to?

@@JesperMakes I am fine thank you. I am still waiting for lumber prices to go down where I am! I have very little scrap and in this country, there is no such thing as free pallets...it's very frustrating! See you soon?

@@julietphillips1991 I can understand I'm very fortunate to have access to both pallets and logs, so I very rarely visit the lumber store, after I got the sawmill almost never anymore, as I mill up whatever I need. while I wait for lumber to dry I have these dead trees to play around with, they are very dry. Do you do woodworking as a hobby or professional?

@@JesperMakes I started out of necessity making stuff I needed. I have always been a "fixer" around the house and I love tools! It didn't take me long to realize I love woodworking...and I joke and say that I must have been a carpenter in a past life! Off and on I make items that I think might interest buyers and my son puts them on Facebook for me...but these buyers love to beat down the price to the point where I have decided I will stick to making for my needs only. Where you are looks like paradise to me!

Correct !! 😀

That's awesome

Thanks 🙏

Just a word of advice. Stick to a saw of some kind. No drills or firearms, OK? 😂

It did 😃

Sorry I have no idea..

you can see it in the video, DF001G

I believe I did 😂

Thanks

Thank you for watching, I have tried it so you don't have to ;-)

@@JesperMakes sama-sama kawan

😳

This is ash.

😂 Using a Makita 40v XGT drill for pyramid-building, now there's a video idea!

The way to look at it is: I spent an hour drilling it down so you didn't have to ;-)

yeah, also no helmet :(

Definetely not something I would recommend for beginners, agreed. Apart from that, I had the security under control, so don't worry my friend.

Beginner or expert should always wear helmet. Those dead branches come down fast and unexpected, and are enough to kill you.

Probably don't sell your chainsaw just yet..

Nope

drill test?

Good point. I've just wanted to try it, and a way of getting something out of your head is doing it.

The drill may not be the best tool to fell a tree, but isn’t this exactly what KZfaq is for? 😅

@Charles J Exactly. One guy does it so the rest dosen't have to - you're welcome.

It's science
