A little over a year ago I didn’t own an an impact. Right now I’m remodeling my sister in laws place. I’m on all platforms. Big change in life, from sitting down on a desk to tearing down walls. I blame it on you Scott 😅. At least some people think I’m happier now. Keep the videos coming.

So I shared your channel with a dude I work with, today he told me “the guy from New York has a new video out” I knew right away he was talking about you. He was born in Peru, grew up in Mexico and lives in America (Texas) now. So those are the only places on earth, so when I told him New Zealand his mid goes to New York. He is a great guy, just not to good in geography. 😊

$100 for the bluetooth chip isn’t even funny. They probably cost about $1 (+/-1) to produce.

Bluetooth system on chip modules like the Nordic NRF52840 are priced at around $3.50 in bulk. There's no way they should be charging $100 extra for a pluggable bluetooth add-on to a $350 tool. IMHO they should either integrate it into the tool or sell the add-on for like $15.

I work at a company that does tool repairs in NZ. The team loves to work on Makita stuff because their parts and diagrams are top notch. Their post sales support in NZ is quite commendable.

every time I see a Scott Brown clip I am stunned that TOYOTA has not sent him a new van yet. he has for sure sold a $$$$$$$$$ butt load of makita tools ( i am up to $2,100 40v myself ) so if you are a toyota rep reading this then DO THE MATH !

Great saw especially

I have owned the corded and 18v versions for years. Once you get cordless it is very hard to go back to the corded saw. One less cord to manage makes it much easier to work with. As for the kickback. I have had 3 occasions of that same kickback. The kickback where the blade rides back over the track (like how your kickback was) is caused by the blade not being parallel to the track when you ran the blade. The front of the saw was angled slightly outward causing the back of the blade to catch onto the aluminum track. If you have any slack with the saw on the track AND you push it slightly off, bit into the track. There are 2 knobs on the saw that control the round wedges to remove any slack while on the track. The round wedges on my cordless saw are worn down so I work around it. For precise cuts, I have my right hand to run the saw and my left hand on the guide plate to help parallel. I try to be on the left side of the track, instead of being directly behind the saw on the right side. One major mistake I made was using a really thin diablo blade with this saw. I change the blade because I didn't want to gum up my Makita blade cutting down 4x8 plexiglass. This blade was too thin for a plunge saw and deflected. It cut into the base place a little and trimmed the aluminum on the track as well. I will try contacting Makita USA to see if I can get replacement wedges for the base plate.

How we're talking about battery tools nowadays is also a tell tale sign of how much has changed within the last 3 years.

Kickback on a track saw happens when you're plunging into the timber surface rather than plunging to full depth and then proceeding to make the cut. A riving knife won't stop this, only will aid when cutting thicker timbers that have a tendency to bind on the back of the blade. A longer track like the 1.9m track makita makes gives you a bit more free track either side of a 1.2m sheet for this purpose.

Just wanted to say I love the videos Scott. I've never really built anything and I'm not a carpenter and don't plan on becoming one but dang these videos are just so interesting. Keep up the great work!

Another great review Scott, I own the 36v makita track saw and love it, appreciate the reviews as we don’t have stores in uk where we can try out tools before purchasing them so watching videos to get an idea of what there like is the only way. Love ur channel keep up the good work 👍🏻

@Thomaslind66 2 жыл бұрын

Regarding the lowered rpm. The 40v got 1400rpm lower then the 2x18v model, but the 40v one does have the same constant speed control as the new Makita 40v angle grinders, which basically means you won’t have a drop in your rpm when plunging into hardwood, such as oak.

I ended up going with Dewalt's Flexvolt track saw since im already on DeWalt's platform. It's not as feature rich as Makita, but still does a great job and takes only 1 battery.

Ive been running my 36volt cordless Makita track saw with a dewalt chop saw bag and taped the blade change hole and it does amazing on the dust to my surprise.
