Its a game changer for you as your old saw was a corded basic saw . I've had the makita and currently use the 36v hikoki which were both great but the hikoki does what you want , more power and more run time . Im heavily invested in the festool platform probably £20k + i also use metabo batteries in my mafell saw as they do 10ah and 36v hikoki as i use their nailers. Hikoki mv 36v is what i use for high drain rough cuts so have the 190mm circular saw and recip saw , festool really is worth the money but would only buy the recip if i wasn't on another platform . Its not revolutionary in any way so im not buying it just to make my tools match and dust extraction on a recip sounds as crazy as it looks

I got mine about a month ago (I pre-ordered the complete kit with batteries). I love it, and would buy it again (if I needed to, for some reason). My only complaint is that it's REALLY heavy. I replaced a cordless Ryobi, which was probably pretty lightweight.

Nice review and thanks for sharing. I noticed you had the flow rate of your CT dust extractor turned almost all the way down (as if you were sanding). I imagine the dust collection would have been better turned all the way up.
@handsome.woodworking10 ай бұрын
Appreciate the kind words! But also, the CT was/is at max power in the video. Check out 9:55 where you can most clearly see it.

How is the vibration in the hand compared to the Dewalt?
@handsome.woodworking9 ай бұрын
Honestly, the Festool feels way more refined, but I wouldn't ever describe the Dewalt as having a bad vibration either.
@donaldstepp485010 ай бұрын
Do you have a secondary tool platform? For me it's Milwaukee, DeWalt, and I have one Metabo( only talking cordless)
@handsome.woodworking8 ай бұрын
I do but it's admittedly dwindling as Festool adds more tools. I use DeWalt, but at this point really only have it around for their big concrete/demo saw and yard tools (weed trimmer, blower).

It snaps into two slots on that metal "table". Always worth a shot. Here's the parts catalog for all the tools, it might be too new to have that dust collector part specifically listed, but worth a try: ekat.festool.de/

I’m a big fan of festool, but hesitate to hop on their battery platform. Makita feels like the better long term balance between price and quality for batteries.

For sure, definitely no right or wrong, I've seen people build great things with Ryobi and people build turds with Festool. Just gotta go with whatever works for you.

Dust collection for a fast and dirty demo tool? And a *cordless* one?!? Don’t get me wrong, I love and own a few sweet Festool…tools, lol. But if you are using a “front-line” rough demo tool like a reciprocating saw, a cordless one to boot where you are deep into enemy territory well beyond the extension cord, then you sure as hell are beyond the reach of a dust extractor. You are either wearing a dust mask in an attic/ crawl space, or you are outside. The dust collection is a nice refinement, but come on now… like you said, you are already balls-deep in Festool batteries and chargers and naturally a Festool “sawzall” is a logical addition. But it isn’t superior.
@handsome.woodworking8 ай бұрын
Just because it has dust collection doesn't mean it needs to (or can be) used in all circumstances. I welcome the option at the very least. For me, I'd say 80% of the demo work I do is on old framing and wall coverings (drywall, plaster, etc), and for that dusty mess, literally I'll take any dust collection support. Point being - for you, maybe not worth it, for someone like me though, it was the selling feature.
@chriskelvin2488 ай бұрын
@@handsome.woodworking I totally get that. One person’s make or break feature on a given tool is another’s non-issue and it doesn’t condemn or poo-poo someone else’s use-case. I was just throwing maybe a bit of cold water on your GAME CHANGER- KING OF ALL DEMO SAWS. When it’s simply a…decent reciprocating saw that you are very satisfied with. I understand a bit how thumbnails must be presented in order to stand out.

For a contractor or tradesperson {like myself) I do not believe Festool is overpriced as they are certainly superior performing tools compared to most other professional brands. For a hobbyist they maybe overpriced but most contractors I work with are Festool enthusiasts.

@@toddbroyard5124 I agree with you up to the point you say festool might be overpriced for hobbyists. What does overpriced even mean and how does it apply differently to hobbyists compared to professionals? Car enthusiasts have expensive tools too. The benefits festool offers are benefits to all
