Ive used the heck out of that saw for five years and it is still going strong....never once had it stop like that on metal......of course I use the correct blades for the material I am cutting. I also use their impact drill drivers and have punished them for the same five years one of those died recently after an exceptionally grueling session. I also have no complaints about the battery performance. I will admit I take good care of my tools and do not abuse them too much. They are light but pretty rugged.

Most of the Porter Cable stuff is older Dewalt clones. Being an orphan they are a parts bin tool brand. They arn't innovating new stuff but simply taking existing parts/engineering from Dewalt to make a tool for loyal consumers(wood workers). So what parts are they using: if you view schematics of internals you'll see they simply reuse the older 18V Dewalt(NiCD) tools with Porter Cable plastics over them. This can be clearing seen with tools like the 1/2 impact Dewalt DW059HB vs PORTER-CABLE PCC740B. So the tools are pretty much 5-10year old Dewalts running on new lithium. Definitely not top by today's standards but not the bottom of the barrel.

My Dad had a Porter Cable jig saw from the '60s that was an absolute work of art. The thing had like 3 different gear cases that all ran in different weights of oil. He ended up with it for free when one of the oil plugs rattled out and it stripped the teeth off a gear. He went down to the actual tool store (long since closed), ordered the actual gear that failed, repaired it, and used the piss out of it for the next 30 years until someone finally stole it. I just hope the dickhead that stole it actually knew what he was getting and didn't just take it in for scrap metal. That would be the worse crime. PC has been just about total junk for about 20 years now. My 15 year old PC Sawsall is only a mere shadow of what that old jigsaw was (but still did come with an exploded diagram of EVERYTHING and the part numbers for the stuff) and the new stuff is just about not worth owning at all.

So funny story with this saw. A friend of mine owns a diesel shop and works on medium and heavy duty trucks as well as pickups. We were doing a lot of exhaust *cough* “modifications” at one point and our sawsall shit the bed on us late one night. Bear in mind in a small town we have wal mart and Lowe’s to choose from so we went to Lowe’s and picked one of these babies up. We figured if we get a few uses out of it the 40 bucks was well worth it and we could finish the job we were on. So fast forward through about two years of very heavy use and neglect and the ole porter cable is still kickin. It’s been one of the best battery sawsalls I’ve seen. We have left this thing in the rain and fully submerged it in various engine fluids over the course of its life. Dropped it from the top of trucks and probably ran it over a time or two and it is still going. I don’t disagree with your knowledge on the engineering side of this thing however I can fully say it is one tough little saw! Great video nonetheless!

I heard you say “real cheapskates” and that immediately brought me out of my slumber. I pulled apart an 18v Rockwell recipro saw yesterday and found good and bad as well. The case was well made with lots of bracing and the whole internal assembly was all metal, probably pot metal, but I was surprised that there was no plastic. The weak link looked to be a very flimsy “scotch linkage” drive mechanism which also creates quite a bit of vibration. Maybe that’s why my Makita uses a bearing as a swash plate. More expensive to manufacture but way more durable and a lot less vibration. Anyway I’m so cheap that I pulled mine out of a bin to use the internals for a rattle can shaker and thankfully everything seems to work properly. The idea is that the whole unit will be mounted on a wall with 230v input and a timer so I can just load the can, set the timer for 3 minutes and come back when the bell goes off. So far everything has been free as the drive mechanism came from a bin, the timer from an old mechanical microwave and the power supply from a dead laptop. Everything else I can fabricate myself so the whole thing will be free. Yep, I sure am cheap. I knew I had been watching to much AvE when I described the trigger as being “chinsie”.

I have the ryobi stuff for home use. It's ok for that. Nothing like the makita i used to have when i was renovating the old house. That thing lasted 15 or so years before one of the nimh batterias gave up. So i sold it on...

Man, you really think ryobi is as good as Milwaukee? Idk. That seems like a stretch. I used my friends ryobi a couple of times and it was a complete POS

@Danny_Boel6 жыл бұрын
so they do sell tools in American Aldi's too, or are you in the UK ? what brand name do they go with? we had "Topcraft" since forever and the tools had a Belgian importer but last year they suddenly had a new brand called "Duro" and the tools come from Germany now
@johnpossum5566 жыл бұрын
At the Aldi's near me (inner inner city ones) they go very quickly. The brand I got is Workzone and I just got the box out ...it is a 3 yr warranty. There is no real tool selection, it's just first come first serve. The stores are almost always fairly packed. I'm in the midwest USA.

I too own a PC circular saw. My dad bought back in 1960 at the Army & Navy in Victoria. Of course it was when 7" blades were the size. 2 years later the saws moved up to 7 1/4" and stayed that way for many years. Meaning, if I want a 7" saw blade...I would have to luck out at garage sales. Mine still has the steel blade that needs sharpening. Carbide tips were not a thing yet. I did luck out and did get 1 blade with carbide tip missing the odd tooth. Still have original carbon brushes in the 120 volt corded motor. (I have been meaning to take them out to see if there is any brush left. Some other day I guess. Built 3 houses with it so far.

There built cheap, but I’ve used the 20v drill and the 1/4 drive impact driver every day for close to two years and surprisingly they are still giving her hell. First day I had the impact driver I forgot it was on the steer axle of a fire engine and backed right over the top of her. Picked out some pebbles and blew the dust out and a year later still going. Blows my mind.

I got the set of B&D tools, recip saw, circ saw, a drill and light, with 2 1500mAh batteries for a hundred dollar bill, out the door. The recip saw and drill are the nicest things on the kit. Well, the light turns on so I guess it is, too. But for the cost of a DeWalt drill, I got the whole lot. It isn’t as good of course but for what I do around the house and occasional REAL work, it’s a fine compliment.
