Handle repair alown was worth watching!!! Very impressive!! Great video

[@Mixwell1983]

I have the makita 2401b that was my grandpas and I'm going to install a new cord and use a 10" cutting wheel and use it for metal. I have a Kobalt sliding compound miter saw for wood and this would bring an actual use again to the Makita. I may even buy a Diablo steel demon blade for it in the future dor metal cutting.

[@simpliciocamirino2271]

thank you for that sharing sir

[@sixstringedwithabowl]

I lost it at that color choice for the plastics, at least go with a blue, man!

[@keithrodriguez1888]

You are a FN GENIUS!Way to use that thinker

[@sandrawest4118]

Wonderful fix on the outer casing..great save. And an excellent job overall. Well done! Peace.

[@garymucher9590]

Nice refurbishing effort. However, If I were you, I would certainly buy a new handle case for it. If someone is using it and that handle lets go, who knows what could happen to the person using it. Thumbs Up!

[@BostLabs]

Wow! My old Craftsman Miter saw resembles your Makita pretty closely. In fact, the handle is darn near broken in exactly the same place. My saw has also been in my storage shed for many years. While we don't get much rain here in Phoenix, Az, the dry heat will do nasty things to plastic. I have a recovery job in front of me but this video will go a long way to help me. The handle repair was genius!

[@brookanderson9713]

[@Alpha_kren]

I thought he would test it at the end, but great job anyway👌 I have the LS1020 model almost similar to that one, thanks for this video this would help me greasing it.

[@KnuckleChin]

I have a 1984 version of this saw. It’s brand new in box, my father in law (75yrs old) bought it and never used it and gave it to me.

[@muohiodpowell1974]

Great job! I have a LS1020 model. The blade brake no longer works. Any suggestions or the part I will need.

[@cursplat]

Well done, Miga. I have an LS1400 that I am restoring now. These are great old saws.👍

[@colemahaney880]

Nice job Bro!

[@jameshanoomansing1442]

excellent work. you should invest in some JIS screwdrivers.

[@manoahouse]

I've been dealing with the same model. Nice video and great music and comments. Just the facts kind of approach seems to have lost out to 'entertaining' Good job!

[@clmnyng]

nice job , thanks for the tips

[@user-os9mh2tq5c]

Бинт надо и эбоксидную смолу

[@user-lq1ov7wj9b]

Полностью согласен 👍

[@andrewcalixte2945]

What mixture did you put over the brake? Have simular problem with my circular saw

[@miga]

that is putty like the kind used for car repair putty

[@zeeshanmalik7220]

Thank you so much bro

[@persioboni9373]

Excelente Parabéns.

[@sher5828]

Thanks so much.

[@miga]

you are very welcome

[@Santos-ek8md]

Great resto Miga 😁👍 What type of gray paint did you use?

[@vsvnrg3263]

i repaired the handle of a favourite drill using epoxy and stainless steel mesh. i roughened the area with very coarse sandpaper. the mesh was held to the shape in place using copper wire then the epoxy was applied. the copper wire was later removed and another layer of epoxy was applied.

[@miga]

that's good idea

[@dlfabrications]

Did the armature bearing (brushes side ) when you took it apart, was it a sealed grease unit or was it greaseless to provide some sort of electrical path for a brake safety feature? Or was it greaseless so you wouldn't get any on the brushes?

[@stretchlimo66]

just scored a 10$ makita miter at a tag sale. new carbon brushes and some TLC....

[@MrWoodMan23]

I had a buddy once who did this. Put it all back together and then burnt the motor up a few minutes after using it. 😬

[@rkzhp]

👍👍👍

[@sher5828]

Is that Bondo you are using to fill with?

[@miga]

that's 3M PR100 here is link for more detail : 3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/all-3m-products/~/3M-Scotch-Weld-Plastic-Rubber-Instant-Adhesive-PR100/?N=5002385+3293242428&rt=rud

[@sher5828]

Actually, I meant the filler you used to fill in the handle. The yellowish stuff.

[@miga]

Polyester putty, It's a two component polyester-base system

[@wilczekmaciej]

well to be honest its in prety good condition. nice bearings, no side of rust inside, nice original clean grease in gears, even plastic inserts for clean cut are there. Great saw it is, im going to buy same, not so lucky though in a bit worse condition. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYeUY3emYs93isU good luck
