A Day in The Life of a Carpenter - Using Hikoki 36V for the First Time

[@mannyayala8313]

Production apartment framer in the USA. The receprecating saw is the king , the 1st gen skillsaw has a cult following second gen is just a "stud" and the triple hammer impact is loved by all. Not to mention price to entry is above all.

[@harrydunn1186]

Painters going to love whoever fitted those architraves 😮

[@dustinkrebs8229]

I run Metabo HPT tools and love them. They are priced very well here in the states.

[@Knackers_Oreilly]

Are they the old Hitachi brand?

Love ya work dave. Handy tip for the smoothedge, if you have a square mouth shovel, either short handle or long wooden handle, you can just slam it against the smoothedge and more often than not the smoothedge + the nail will come out all in 1 long strip. Keep crackin mate

[@ashtondrake3407]

Congrats on 100k!

[@DaveDoesCarpentry]

Thankyou!

[@needaman66]

I used hitachi when they had the old post batteries, changed to dewalt. Was going to switch to Milwaukee nails guns but my tool repair guy said dont. Sees less of dewalt amd more of the red devil. The track saw plunge is better on the wrists than every other gun. Cheers homeslice. Carpentry Australia 👍btw, torque test channel tested the new 860. Rated at 4500bpm. Their test revealed over 5000 bpm, thats 11 beats per second 😮😮

I'm a mature age apprentice from the moreton Bay Region. I see you everywhere, commenting on carpentry posts videos and pages. Good to see someone with as many years as you in the trade still be involved and passionate in their trade.

@@levro7367 wha? I'm only 64 🤣 good on you young fella, we need more guys in the trade that guve a sh-t 🔨

[@N1rOx]

There is a soft tip located on the tool body for that brad nailer.

[@robdiv5848]

I have Hikoki - great tools! and ergonomic! Framer Nailer is the best!

[@CapitanGnar]

You can replace the nose spring on the framer to a lighter weight one and it makes skewing in odd places much, much easier. You can get it from bunnings.

[@wallywillis1624]

Could have mitre the skirting so it runs seamless if that makes sense. Runs down from the 80mm on an angle down to the 66.

[@alessandrozito4145]

Mate use a copping saw for your scribes. Anything else is just rough

[@andrewpritchard5328]

@9:50 "I think I prefer this over the Festool".....big call :)

[@TuanLe-lz1hy]

Festool is pretty shit comparing to the Japanese tools, wankers love it tho, for showing off obviously, overpriced tools.

[@cryptodojoau5425]

You've worn out the bristles on your speed square brush! 😁

[@HunterCarpentry]

The digital level as a screeed 😭😭😭

[@changang1211]

Hi, mate. May I know where did you get your license for carpentry? Thanks

[@drunkntigr]

Are you using the 10ga framer on the trim? Why not use the 16ga or 15ga?

[@Knackers_Oreilly]

I dont get how these tool manufacturers always seem to stuff up the ergonomics of a tool. If they dont feel good in your hands they just wont sell many.

[@Thomas-yh2ft]

Do you ever split the bag just across the middle with concrete or cement bags? It then folds in half and is clean to tip into a bucket or just use half etc. Have recently discovered the channel and loving the vids. I've got some OBVS pouches on the way 👍

[@cryptodojoau5425]

Which gauge nails is that hikoki using?

[@JamieVauxnut1]

I was looking forward to your thoughts up until you said the Dewalt plunge is the best on the market and you likes the plunge style. The plunge is terrible for making accurate plunge cuts starting at a set point because of the way it plunges forward. In terms of ranking it's mafell and festool joint first then bosch, Dewalt is way down the list if you've tried them all which I'm assuming you haven't by how confidently you said that . Hikoki do make the best cordless nailers I will agree with you on that and the 1/2" 36v router is second to none in the cordless market . The 3rd gen 3 hammer impact looks interesting pretty sure that's a gen 2 you have but it's the best impact on the market for sure . I think you guys need to take off the yellow tinted dewalt glasses for impartial tool reviewing

[@lowfatedes]

The Hikoki track saw is fantastic

[@auntytizza]

That's a whole lot of water sitting there under the deck 😅

[@bobmarli6095]

You’ve had the hikoki framer for a while now so technically not the first time

[@bobmarli6095]

@JustAChippie Title doesn’t mention that so it’s a bit of clickbait

[@user-mv5rf9xb9c]

Now makita!

One last video before bed

[@dingeldiy]

Oi Dave! Collab?

[@Mrcrown38]

Omg the pain that poor fucking level, you monster 😢 awesome video but

[@wkrextiny0]

I will just use 65 mm skirting and gap that

[@hansmlbak6116]

that track saw from dewalt is the worst in the world

[@ashtonormesher9682]

Everything from dewalt is the worst in the world

[@N1rOx]

@@ashtonormesher9682 made me chuckle a bit when old mate said he'd take the dewalt over the hikoki with a prehistoric 887 with 3 row battery hanging from his bags.
