[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I’ve liked the newer one more and more as I have been using it. 👍👍

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

@@MattHmm-rq6dn 👍👍

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

Absolutely it is …….. Mr Morgan is a pioneer

[@stevenfoust3782]

Great little saw for light work such as basic trim, different types of siding, flooring,and some sheet material . Definitely good for when the 7-1/4” is overkill.

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@stevenfoust3782 absolutely 👍 the fact it cuts 2x4 is huge for me ……. Is it the fastest no but it’s pretty darn good

[@kpakaify]

New one is so compact! Gonna get it! Thanks for the video!

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

Highly recommended so far

[@GustyOinker]

Good video buddy. Keep it up.

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

Thank you

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

That was kinda abrupt ending but always good to have another vantage point. I have not had them locally or able or order it on hds website non exisant. So I'm kinda jealous since the old one I liked but that blade brake sounds like the saw is working really hard all the time. I listen for stuff like that around Mr so people arnt stripping screws or dimming the lights with a chop saw/wormdrive and blowing breakers. You hear when things are wrong more than right and I do like the hook so it's worth the upgrade. Thanks for the video maybe do a little shorts plowing into a 4x4 rip cut so show the difference in rpm? Also that will get you on the radar of some new viewers who enjoy extreme looking things.

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

Sure thing I will do some cuts soon………. My wife was yelling at me so I cut the video off so nobody can hear me get in trouble for playing with my toys in the Shop ………. Keep checking HD website mine had Qty 0 for weeks then one day they had 5 in stock I ran over to get it so Keep your eye out.

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

Have to respect the MVP of our lives the woman(or significant other to be inclusive) they make the world go around. Im lucky i get to play with my toys often at work and it dosent leave me wanting too much. I can wait for the craze to die down on thoes saws and chances are they will be part of a battery promo if i dont get one for the 99. have you checked out pipeline? some good stuff and dewalt is comming out with a oil impule driver as well but i dont see using a 20v system much anymore. Always something new and shiny around the corner!

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@MattHmm-rq6dn always something new….. they gotta keep the stuff coming so we all keep buying. I watched a couple of people live at pipeline. It all looks great the innovation is great. I am interested in all the accessories for the packout rail systems can’t wait.

[@pamelah6431]

How do the guts compare? My brother said the old little M12 was constantly getting stuck and worn out.

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@pamelah6431 it’s more powerful and faster I couldn’t tell you the numbers but I can definitely feel a difference……. I can see what your brother was talking about because it is a Little saw. If using it to cut big cuts it will get stuck. Overall it is for sure a better saw worth the upgrade

[@richvolkjrful]

Does this one use 5 ½" blades also because I'm not seeing official documentation that it does

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@richvolkjrful yes the Gen 2 uses 5 1/2 not the gen 1

[@colinbrown3225]

Very luck out in the USA with that pricing two dealers here in UK £228 😢

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@colinbrown3225 oh I bet they are not that price anymore

[@soggyfries4347]

8ft long rip cuts through 3/4 plywood no problems with this guy.

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@soggyfries4347 i agree this thing is a beast for M12

[@Saeglopur89]

I regret buying as big as possible

[@Tooling_with_Newman]

@@Saeglopur89 I agree I think that is man law to just buy the biggest and strongest. I myself got into the M18 line first and I still run M18 but I mainly use M12
