I'd love to get a comparison between this 60v string trimmer and the Dewalt 20v string trimmer. I realize there must be a power difference, but I'm wondering what exactly the 20v can't do that the 60v can. Like you cut some tree shoots with the 60v, which is nice. Can the 20v do that?
@TwistedToolbox24 күн бұрын
I haven't had my hands on the 20 volt option to test it yet. My assumption would be less high end torque and less battery life. The 20 volt should work well for general trimming work.

I have been using this saw heavily almost since its release. It copes with what i throw at it and has withstood dirt and water. I have it in the digger to deal with any tree roots, branches pipes bits of steel etc. The compact size makes it really easy to stow and more practical than a bigger reciprocating saw or a chainsaw. In thick material cutting to the tools limits it doesn't bog down to any great degree but it isnt quite as fast as the full size reciprocating saw. The only advantage of the full size model is if doing repeated cuts but for the occasional cut even of thick material, this tool does it.

From my experience, brushed tools last longer, simply because when they need repairing, you just replace the two brushes and tool is good to go again. When brushless tools wear out, the whole circuit board and magnets need replacing and it's cheaper to just buy a new brushless tool. Brushed tools have a few advantages too. Maybe old school is sometimes better.
@TwistedToolboxАй бұрын
Good points. Most people will not replace a brush and will replace the whole tool, which means they are replacing the tool more often than a brushless one.

Can you use a 7 inch wheel (with the 7/8 arbor) on a 4.5" with a 5/8th arbor. I can only think that the lower RPM on a 7inch may cause the disk to snap or break under the higher rpm (10,500rpm) of a 4.5" grinder? If the 7/8 disk fits then would a 7inch dust shroud be acceptable for safety purposes while gaining the vacuum feature also??

This is a great video! Thanks a lot. 2 years old but still great! I heard that the DeWalt Clutch is not working properly, especially on the lowest settings like gear 1 and clutch 1. For example, you're working with cabinet doors and you're just driving some small screws. Instead of stopping when it faces a resistance it just goes all the way down. No matter if it's set to the most sensitive settings. Have you faced something similar?
@TwistedToolbox4 ай бұрын
I don't use the clutch feature in daily life. I use the impact driver for screws. Sorry, I don't have any tips on using it for small screws. If you are doing jobs like small cabinet screws, I will go with a smaller drill with less power so you can dial it in better. This heavy-duty hammer drill is best for drilling.

From my understanding, the 5/8" arbor refers to the spindle. You can actually measure it with a ruler, from outside thread to outside thread. The backing flare nut step diameter, used to fit inside a grinding wheel, is the 7/8" . So when shopping for grinding wheels you go by the size of the disc, and the diameter of the flare nut step (not the arbor size).
@rayb5704 ай бұрын
No, the ARBOR or arbor hole is the larger step up diameter to hold cutting and grinding wheels which fit around the 5/8" SPINDLE that is used for threaded attachments.
