I know im seeing things, but there's a chipmunk with tentacles on the end of that log.

Love how the whole time you were drilling on the log there was the face of an Otter looking back at me.🤔

That Makita is the old model. It was replaced in the last few months by the XPH14. That one is rated for 1090in lbs, the new one is 1250in lbs.

There is only one problem I saw with your testing. You should have used 2 different buckets of dry-wall mud. That way each drill could have a fresh start. The Makita drill testing loosened up a lot for the DeWalt. The friction that occurs inside the mud no doubt raised the temperature of the mix which made it easier to stir.

Is it just me or is there a picture of a squirrel in the wood to the right of the holes?

Not exactly Project Farm, but interesting nonetheless.

My uncle introduced me to makita back when he had his construction company, and I’ve been a fan ever since. Going on 20 years now

I would like to see how the newer Milwaukee fuel drill with the high demand battery dose against them aswell

Anyone else see the silhouette of a cartoon squirrel face on that log?

This east coaster couldn’t agree more, I’ve had Makita 18volt cordless tools for 13 years and they have never failed to impress.

To be fair, try the fuel brushless with a 12 ah battery. The small battery makes a difference for high load situations.

I want to see the same tests with the Milwaukee M18 Fuel or we will all “peacefully protest”

Makita does have an aggressive protection system. I like that though, you can guarantee your stuff will last a long time.

I've had the Makita for 3+ years and have used it to mix thinset, grout, drywall mud and it's still great. It is a little heavy for light-duty work so I run a subcompact Makita for drilling smaller holes. Highly recommended, as well as the impact driver combo.

I'm a lineman by trade, and we use auger bits everyday to drill through wooden poles for cross arms and brackets . We use impact drills with the 7/16 quick chuck , they are designed for those bits . The impact action gives you zero arm twist so extra handle is not needed and have no doubt would have chewed completely through that log. Great video!

Somebody get this guy a Milwaukee Fuel hammer drill

Thanks I've had a cordless drill for about 6 years, and not a very great one, just enough to do small work around the house. So I've been looking for a good one today and luckly i came by your video to narrow it down. Thanks alot for the review.

i haven't been smoking the devils lettuce or anything but 2:21 looks like a cartoon squirrel or something drawn on that log lol

Really enjoyed this test. This has got to be one of the most important and commonly bought crucial tools of a craftsmen. I've been a Makita Guy since the 90s but have some Dewalt power tools and Milwaukee accessories. I really wanted a Milwaukee impact driver in 1997 but thanks to your video I have finally gotten over it. Therapy and healing through wood lol.

I’d like to see the m18 fuel drill vs the makita and dewalt

I’ve tried both, and agree the Makita is the better between the two. I also tested the M18 Fuel at the same time that I tested these two. I can just say that the M18 is a lot more of a drill than the other two, hands down. My Milwaukee has done things I never thought a cordless could ever do and then some. You can definitely feel a significant difference in power between them. Plus, between the 3 the Milwaukee has the better warranty.

I’m a makita fan but if that wasn’t a old brushed Milwaukee drill with a small battery it would’ve most likely beat them both , the M18 fuel with a 5.0 or 6.0 is as powerful as it gets for a 1/2” drill.

Project Farm does a lot of head to head testing and tools and other things like this. East coast guy here personally I like milwaukee lol

The Milwaukee fuel hammer drill would destroy them drill with the 6 amp hour battery

What watch are you wearing in this one? I’m already invested in Milwaukee battery system so that’s what I would go with I’d like to see how that holds up

Us East coast guys don't use the auxiliary handle. We just put the one handed gorilla grip on it and go.

Milwaukee is where it’s at bro....we used to have all Dewalt battery tools we tried one Milwaukee fuel impact and now our tool trailer is stuffed full of red.

Finally some good words for makita

My Milwaukee cordless 1/2” drill will do all tasks and then some. I have run a cylinder hone on breaking glaze on a Wright Cyclone engine cylinder that is a scoche over 6” diameter cylinder on a 1,820 cu in 9 cyl engine.

That Makita is a beast. Bought the exact same model a little over a year ago and it's never failed me.

I've been a Milwaukee user for over 29 years and there is no way that you can change my mind , I have owned both Dewalt and Mikata and they don't hold a candle to Milwaukee.

I think you either had an editing problem or an issue with the upload starting around 6:28.

Dude, I can only imagine how awesome it is to load up your ATV with what you need to film with. Drive out to the middle of nowhere on your property, and with nobody around you and film. True Bliss right there Wrangler. I am Jealous of that

I wonder if the Makita made in Japan is better quality 🤔 ??

I remember saying to people You have a 12? I have a new DeWalt 14.4. At the time , I was drilling concrete screws all day, installing windows and glass doors in a new high rise on the beach. Amazing improvements come with drills I can't lift.

If you want a cordless drill for this kind of work the Milwaukee FUEL 7/16 in. Hex is great we use them to drill though utility poles all the time they make quick work of this kind of stuff or I know Hilti makes a equivalent drill that works well but the Milwaukee also uses the same 18 volts as the rest of the m18 line.

Been waiting for this video all my life ;) Literally been looking at getting a new makita drill

The east coast flat brim had me dying immediately 😂😂😂 keep up the great content 🤙

My father has used Makita for years great tools and very reliable!

1st drill - impressive 2nd drill - DEWALT GO BRRRR

Thank you for disclosing the fact that you are not invested in the Milwaukee battery system therefore you didn't test the milwaukee. Some would think that there is some dislike there but I see none. I appreciate the transparency.

Always had makita's tools Ive got a makita jig saw of my uncles thats about 25 years old, still going strong💪

The Milwaukee with a 5AH RED battery would have also done well.

I think for a professional the Dewalt has the best value when considering the entire line of tools, they may not be the best of the best every time but the price/performance ratio is the winner I think all things considered.

There is a picture of a squirrel on the log, upper right side, before the bark. A squirrel face standing up with body and legs

Agreed…. I like to look at what brand does the MOST tools good or best and choose the system that way. Still keep some Skil tools around in 12v but I switched to makita. Thanks for the time and entertainment.

Ah I love this series of videos. So glad you're doing it again!

I have this Makita and was foolish enough to use it once without the handle to drive in an M12 screw. It almost broke my hand, really incredible how much power it has, most amazing purchase ever.

i love your bucket foot clutching. that looks better than the average homeowner.

The dewalt would be more powerful when paired with a flexvolt battery. I own milwaukee and dewalt. But I'll say makita will outlast both of them, especially newer made ones. Plus Makita isn't owned by a parent company. The only problem is availability in stores.

Error in the video: at 6:29, six seconds are repeating. @Wranglerstar

I have a small log cabin on my channel and I bolted in all the logs together. I drilled the holes with that dewalt drill and same auger, and bolted everything with ten inch lag bolts with the dewalt 1/4 impact driver. Strong stuff.

Milwaukee m18 fuel will smoke the Dewalt all day, everyone knows Milwaukee is the best overall power tool company. Milwaukee m18 with a high output xc8.0 battery would eat this for lunch, this guy just doesn't like Milwaukee for some reason.

Cody I’m not normally a brand fan boy by ANY stretch however I’m a proof is in the pudding kinda guy, get a m18 fuel 1/2 drive with a 5ah battery and do the same test hands down it’s gonna win

Makita makes some of the best tools in the world. Great demo.

I use this battery drills now. Got some dewalt and some milwaulkee. And I personally enjoy the milwaulkee. Before I'd have to run hydraulic lines and hook up my drill to my truck. And you might containment the hydraulic leak and it's a real nightmare if the lines burst. Makes everything so much easier. Especially when climbing the poles, no longer need to drill it by hand if you can't get get truck in

Missing a little red in this face-off..

Leave it up to a west coast man to steal his wife’s fur collared vest. 😂🤣

One issue you will have with the Dewalt drill is the chuck. Running that large of a bit will cause it to have some issues overtime. Nothing that prevents you from using it, but finicky stuff you'll have to get used to. I've owned 3 of the 700 series, a 996, and the 999 in the video. You may be better off buying their hole hawg (DCD470). It's expensive, but that's a drill you won't be able to break.

6:28 just a heads up if you want to reupload.

I used to carry a milwaukee hammer drill for work everyday. Man thats also a great tool. Never tried the ones in this video but im sure its right up there. no bite back either.

So it gives you the fizz, but does it give you the “2 alternators fizz”?? 😝😜🤪

Ingersoll Rand (D5140) has a beastly 1/2" drill that I believe would show those drills up.

I've always been a fan of Makita. I recently switched to Milwaukee and have been real happy.

The Rohm chucks in the DeWalt premium drills are what set them apart from Milwaukee and Makita, far and away built for tougher applications.

No doubt about it, the auger test was definitely a win for the Dewalt. It was faster. Both are good tools. I have used both and my first was a Nikita. Mikita to me is more ergonomic but I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

3:35 What does it mean that you "lost the tip"?

I know the video is about testing the two brands of hammer drills. But, what really impressed me was how that bit held up through the tests. I thought it would twist, bend, or even snap.

I love Makita. The best cordless equipment I have invented in

If your gonna do Milwaukee like that, at least give it a 6Ah high output battery. I believe if it had a fair battery size it would still compete

Milwaukee has a cordless mud mixer drill now

Cody, we the people have spoken....we need to see the Makita face off against Team Red with the 5ah.

I’m a big fan of Makita too..... loving the black Gilet - very smart 👏👏🙏

Am I the only one seeing the cartoon squirrel? 😂

I love the 12 volts Milwaukee.Thank you for sharing

I had a Milwaukee M18 hammer drill that was stolen from me and the impact with the kit also just seemed to lose its power at about the same time. I replaced both with a Makita 18V hammer and impact kit and I never looked back. They aren't brushless but they are soo much nicer to work with. Good power, battery life is still impressive after 3 years of continuous commercial use and I've just always felt like they were much lighter and more nimble to work with. I have also acquired a Milwaukee M18 Fuel hammer drill thats brushless. Though it is a major power house of a drill and its nice to have that type of power in my hand, I still haven't found anything that the Makita couldn't do yet and I just leave the Milwaukee hanging on the shelf in the shop. I didn't even have any other Makita batteries or chargers when I bought these and have since pretty much switch to using mostly all of their power tools. They've all just seemed much nicer to work with over the last few years...

That looks like the older brushed Milwaukee model I don't think it's the new fuel brushless.

Dewalt right angle drills are amazing for this style work 2 speeds will eat thru anything

Mikita has never changed the battery format. They work on all tools

I have been a Makita fan since the early 2000's, when my then girlfriend (now wife) bought me a cordless drill as a gift. (KEEPER!) I eventually wore out that drill, but have a suite of Makita 18V tools now.

Look at that damn chipmunk!! Chi chi chi chip and Dale rescue rangers!!

Something we can definitely agree on is that makita drill is a beast. I’ve switched completely over to the Makita line of cordless tools. I find the price point to be very competitive and I’ve always had good luck in the past with makita corded tools lasting through a lot of daily use and abuse.

Dewalt had been stepping up lately with the 20v atomic line and the new power stack batteries.

I just got a new Ford truck as well and I love it. cant wait to catch one of your live streams Wrangler

Homedepot has a good deal on a makita combo kit. The new hammer drill and the new impact for 399.00. You get a bag,2 extra 5.0 amp hr batteries plus a rapid charger, a 40 piece impact bit kit. So 4 total batteries. It's not a bad kit for the price

Test impact wrenches man .I’m a technician at Firestone and would love to see what impacts hold up.Myself I got a Milwaukee m18 fuel and it rips lug nuts off of 3/4 ton trucks no problem

Makita, DeWalt, and Milwaukee are all excellent tools. They are my go to for electric tools. Ingersol Rand for air tools. IR also makes an excellent 1/2 inch drive cordless impact. Bust lug nuts off trucks all day with one.

Little known fact, the "Doug" in Douglas Fir was a botanist who died when he fell in a Bison hole. He survived the fall. He didn't survive the Bison that fell in after him.

HOLY MOLY! That blows my mind those drills can do that!!! I own corded drills to do that.

Glad I'm not the only one seeing a squirrel in that worm trail

I own a Milwaukee drills for doing that and it works great.

It's a competition to see who gets to take second place behind Milwaukee 🤣

Been a fan of Makita since I bought my first 9.6v drill/flashlight combo in 2001 from the Mac tool's guy. And later working in tool rental we had a few Makita chainsaws, I think a few 65cc and 75cc ones, had a guy rent one of the big ones to cut up a stack of telephone poles to make pilings, he cut like 20 of them up and was back in two hours with a half hour drive each way.

I use a 1 inch auger everyday (electrician). I bought a dewalt 60 volt in line stud and joist drill. It's insanely powerful

Im still a Makita fan, burned through to many Dewalts over the years

Ah yes a Milwaukee brushed motor drill with a 1.5 ah battery...

Some job sites won't allow the 18volt hammer drills because if they often break people's wrists

So where's the Milwaukee M18 Fuel Hammer Drill? Love the Makita though!

I’ve got the Makita, and they don’t supply that long handle for nothing! It’s an absolute animal. Will break a 1/2 twist bit for fun, if you can hold on to it! It’s a wrist breaker if you are not the boss of it without the long handle attached.
