First Look NEW Milwaukee M18 12" Dual Bevel Sliding Miter Saw

Рет қаралды 267,160

Күн бұрын

In this video I take a first look at the brand new Milwaukee m18 Dual Bevel Sliding Miter Saw. At first glance it looks strangely familiar...because it is almost an exact copy of the little 7 1/4" . Which is awesome. I'm not going to go to deep into this...It was just an opening and initial thought video, because I have been getting a ton of questions about it.
Remember...These videos are for you guys not the brands...I genuinely am interested in helping you out, and also helping myself out. I am constantly asked the types of questions from multiple people that are much easier answered in video form to many at one time. Don't worry, I am working on the next build series so stick around!!!

I've used other (10" saws) previously and was pretty surprised with the speed and cutting ability of this Dewalt saw.I have bolted mine to a table to minimize movement which I highly recommend.This is a Great saw kzfaq.infoUgkxPeGkHOMe05FySypTOvYumxMn-xi39oRe with a light to see your cutting line (not a laser line).I'd recommend this saw fro anyone looking to upgrade from a 10" miter saw.

31.62 is for cutting crown moulding while laying flat on the deck. There’s another one on the bevel too at 33.9 so you lock out you bevel and miter on those settings and lay the crown flat to get a perfect 45 degree miter on crown

The 31.6 and 33 degree stops are for cutting crown molding flat. Crown comes typically in standard 45 and 38 degree installed angles. Those stops work in conjunction with the bevel gauge to give you the angles necessary to make corners and miter cuts. By the way. Each type of crown has a number and each number of crown has an available miter sheet with all the numbers necessary for cutting the angles in any instillation.

With so many different jobs I do, it might be a game changer! Framing, baseboard, crown, decks. It might just save some time for me. I especially like the shadow line. The laser on my Ryobi gave up ages ago, and I had a hard time seeing it in daylight, so, maybe?

The odd detents are for cutting crown at 45° when the crown is positioned flat on the table of the saw. You have to angle the bevel as well to do this. The only reason I think you would ever want to do this is if the crown is bigger than the fence is tall. If that makes sense lol.

You just need to practice, it’s a case of cutting one side crown moulding face forward with the saw left in 31.6 and then crown moulding backside with 31.6 to right. Practice on a few cuts, I might have the left and right, back and front wrong way round. It’s been ages since I did it. 👍🏻

One thing though I would keep a couple old chargers around as they can recondition m12/m18 batteries which may save you a trip or call milwaukee for green/red light charging issue and the slower you charge the better for the over all life/performance of the battery. Like me on the job site time is money so rapid and above but if you can hold off charging till end of day and charging overnight on the old style or sequential charger you'll will give your batteries more life in the long run. I own a ton of batteries and I am learning somethings the hard way.

Actually it’s not good for lithium batteries to be charged at less than 1C. So no less than 12amps for a 12HD battery. As long as the charger is balancing the cells correctly, then no need to “trickle” charge the battery. I have the Super Charger I use for these batteries and it’s well worth the money. Mine came with a free 8amp battery.

@@kevinmeyer2655 Can you link to evidence that fast charging makes batteries last longer? I have never heard that before. I know battery chemistry is constantly changing and all cells are not the same. No one used the term "trickle" but you though. I thought trickle charging lithium cells was a big no-no. As in fire and explosive catastrophic no-no. I don't think 2hrs is trickle charging. Note that he said "sequential charger" which charges 6 packs, one at a time.
