Dewalt 3 Inch 20V Cut Off Tool - The King Of Them All!

[@kherrera2009]

Those foldable dewalt table are my favorite i love them.

[@robert_costello]

Yes sir. I have 3 of them

[@jonathan0o0dawKins]

As a tile guy, this tool would be going up against some tough competition with my Flexvolt grinder when cutting tile. I could only see my self using this if I wanted to do some quick dust and water free cuts indoors with it hooded up to a vac. FYI: I just found out Diablo released a 3" mesh style diamond wheel for this tool. They call it the "Diamond Continuous Rim Cut-Off Discs for Masonry"

[@LandbergTileTV]

[@LandbergTileTV]

Found that blade! I'll have to put together a PART 2 for this video

[@jonathan0o0dawKins]

@@LandbergTileTV Looking foward to it.

[@jonathan0o0dawKins]

@fartpoobox ohyeah hmm, yeah, I can see that being useful for backsplashes, especially for when you need to quickly cut the outlet holes.

[@erikanglehart7760]

Yah they’ve had that blade out for a minute it’s a beast of a blade tho I have the Milwaukee version of this tool because It took Dewalt forever to come out with their model like Ryobi has one Rigid has one and Makita does but theirs is trash

[@ktmidol]

Looks good for basic diy jobs. Perfect for me.

[@4142Wilb]

It’s a good tool to have but that’s dependent upon your skill and ability to handle this tool. 1st, don’t let the blade guard/guide fool you because it’s about as useless as a brushless Dewalt 20v flash/spot light 😂. Seriously it is. It hinders your cuts as you can’t follow your scribed line without leaning uncomfortably over it to “try” and see that your attempt to cut is straight. And just from looking at that guard, attaching a hose to it for dust control adds more to the hinderance of trying to follow your cut line. Secondly, that guard doesn’t stay in one of its 3 positions when cutting. I find it best cutting in reverse if I have to use the guard, along with the utmost patience. Forward cutting with the guard is absolutely tedious. Now, moving forward, with out the guard, it cuts pretty well for its need but this is the skill/ability factor I stated earlier that is needed. Free handed cutting needs the utmost control here because this little guy is light and spinning fast, if you’re not in control and patient, this can hurt you or harm your cut if it’s needed in a precise manner. Without the guard, your susceptible to more dust and debris, the blade getting pinched and wobbling off course possibly kicking back or out of the cut thus injuring you. Personally I see this as a poor design for a fast buck on Dewalt’s part. I wouldn’t recommend it but that’s the game of choice - is it needed or not. Unlike a circular saw that is much heavier and easier to control this little cutter poses more problems than solutions. My biggest issue is with the guard/guide design. Just as a simple cut off tool with precision needed it’s good, copper demo it’s good, ripping up drywall it’s good. For the price it’s nothing special nor fancy. As for cutting tile, expect chips and imperfections near your finishing cut. When I refer to the guard/guide being disappointing I mean in terms of setting the depth cut and getting going, when that’s being attempted the guard will drop when applying pressure as you push your cut. It’s kind of difficult to explain but if you get one you’ll understand right away. I’d suggest renting or borrowing one if possible before wasting money here.

[@thegreatshitstain]

Extremely insightful comment. I just got this tool myself with two primary purposes in mind: removing flood-damaged sections of drywall and cutting vinyl & aluminum soffit. I was surprised to see that people actually use this for cutting tile. I don't see how it's possible to get a straight, clean cut without having god-like skill and dexterity. And as I think you alluded to, the cut line indicator on the shoe of the dust shroud is absolutely useless because your view of the front of the shoe is completely obstructed by the vacuum/dust extractor connection. I've also experienced the unsettling movement when cutting with the dust shroud/shoe attached, due to the 3-position gaurd being way too easy to move.

[@eddizonmartinez3733]

I own the Milwaukee one, love the tool, I use it to cut 1/4 in plywood or LVP flooring, when it comes down to tile I only use it for thin subway tile

[@tatebraboy336]

Do you reccomend using this tool for LVP over a miter saw or circular saw or oscillator??

[@eddizonmartinez3733]

@@tatebraboy336 I do, as long as you put a multi purpose blade it cuts like butter and you can have it next to you the entire time

[@melgross]

The multiuse blade goes through 0.05” stainless like butter. The big batteries really overbalance the tool. A 5 amp is plenty. The new 5 amp powerstack is perfect if you’re going to cut through thicker materials. Guys, seriously, read the manual. It tells you to REMOVE the dust shroud when cutting metal. There’s a good reason for that. The shroud is plastic. It can melt from the heat, or even burn. You don’t want the possibly red hot particles going into your vacuum! Inside the shroud is a metal cover over the top of the blade for metal cutting. I cut tile and stone in one pass and have the front edge of the blade turning down so as not to chip the material.

[@Igor-q3f]

Do you see the cutting line with that dust port on?

[@paulrobilotti9294]

I love this tool, I had been replacing my 12" wire shelves in our closets and putting in 16" & 20" wire shelves I used this tool to cut my shelves OMG so easy to work with, in closets that have multiple shelves in it I can get all the shelves cut in no time as compared to a hacksaw or a reciprocating saw. Just a note the DeWalt metal cutting blade is a much better and longer lasting blade then the DIABLO blade, lasts so much longer

[@monbaby77]

Can this replace major brand`s 20v-40v high-end grinders? enough power to compete with them? or just for DIY?

[@ezekieo32]

the best tool to have when installing rigid vinyl or laminate plank (the type of plank that does not bend when you hold one end of the plank) and when cutting finished material (were blue tape or a piece of wood is needed when preventing tear out or chipping).

[@tatebraboy336]

This tool is better than using a miter saw or a table saw or cross cut or oscillator for vinyl flooring? Very curious because this tool looks like it would be awesome to do all the cuts since it’s so small

[@ezekieo32]

@@tatebraboy336 you can still use miter saw to do cross cut, but if you needed one tool, the compact 3" saw will do it all. You will have good control with it. The oscillator tool is bested used for cutting existing door jams to slide the flooring under.

[@jamesnichols2535]

I can’t justify needing this for a tile job if I have grinders already not like u gave a hard to get to spot on a tile job

[@michelmarchand2291]

Some blades like the multi material one have a specific rotation that is indicated with arrows on them. This is why you can switch the rotation of the tool,,,

[@ihos501]

i used this to made a cutout in a granite countertop yesterday. it embarrasses full scale grinders. I bought the best blade to cut a steel railing for a client and the grainder struggled alot, but I had to do 2 more cuts after a few days, used this and it cut hardened steel railings with the stock dewalt blade like cheese.

[@letsbuildsomethingNOW]

I'm thinking this may be perfect for use in formica laminate countertop installation.

[@vickavelli1032]

Nice!!! Way more powerful than that week azz Weekwaukee! That Weekwaukee is one of the most expensive overpriced yet bogs down with the slightest pressure. Only good for cutting drywall and cardboard and barley cut through thin wood! Had to return it for a complete refund and replaced it with the Ridgid, witch is a much better tool. But I will be grabbing this DeWalt it's a beast even better than my trusty Ridgid. Nice vid 👍

[@OmniCourage]

I have this (one of the dozen Dewalt tools I have). Should I get an oscillating tool as well or does this tool cover that need? Thanks!!

I was a little worried about installing the blade after reading a couple of reviews. But it was amazingly easy. Took about 1 minute. Works great kzbin.infoUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c . Cuts easily and is perfect for pocket cuts I needed to make for replacing some old deck boards.

The Dewalt cutoff tool is hands down the best on the market. If you are cutting steel piping or uni-strut go with a porta ban

[@JR-rp7vr]

can it do wood? I dont see any blades for wood. Sometimes I want to cut some quick wood poles, dowels etc. Or should I find a different tool?

[@christopherboucher2887]

Probably not ideal for cutting steel stud in a wall eh? I like how small it is but the width seems like it might be a bit tight in some situations. I'm running drainage and water lines at work for plumbing. Cutting lots of stud. I use my coworkers Milwaukee angle grinder a lot, but it is pretty tight in a lot of situations too. It's such a waste of time to pop out a stud just to cut out a 3"x3" hole... Any recommendations buying this over an angle grinder?
