General TMMAC Carpentry/DIY Thread

[ShatsBassoon]

I'm in the market for a cordless circular saw. Mostly handyman type stuff, might build a large storage shed next to the house...other than that, just whacking 2X4s and plywood for DIY projects.

most of my cordless stuff is Hitachi, corded is Bosch or Porter Cable, but I have all of it for a long time - I'm OK with moving to a new platform and swapping out tools as I go. I kind of want a worm-drive, but that's just my inner carpenter talking. I think direct-drive is more appropriate for what I'm doing.

or anyone else...

Buy something that carries the same battery pack as your current tools

that's Hitachi...but that's just a drill and light. Almost everything is corded. mostly work in the garage, gave my old generator away when I moved from OR...so I'm in the market for a platform...just the circular is the first corded tool to die.

when i was a kid, we built a huge deck on our house. The carpenters had a giant saw for cutting 6X6s, it was really old and it was named "Lefty"

my family.

Elton and Kramer built the deck, with help from my dad.

Dewalt and Milwaukee are the tops for cordless saws. Not a big fan of milwaukee, just find it uncomfortable. A preference thing more than anything.
