Home Depot has a decent deal on the combos now. Buy a $399 combo and get two bare tools free.
I’m going to merge these two together 😀

So did you buy, or is that a question?
Good find on the hole saw kit, I just went out and picked it up thanks!

These are some really good deals. They’re all three tool combo kits with the respective compact brushless drill and impact, but for some reason Makita’s third in the combo is the brushless recip, Ridgid is the brushless circular saw, but Milwaukee and Dewalt just get the junk flashlight. Only time I’ve seen Makita have better deals.
This has to be the funniest of them. Three tools and six batteries.

Also flexvolt scms with batteries and power adapter is now the same price (599) as the corded equivalent.

It’s to the 30th to the best of my knowledge I just grabbed one and a Ridgid miter saw cart
They have the new Diablo hole saw set too. I think I’d rather pick that one up to be honest. Isn’t the Lenox set at Lowe’s on sale too?

lowes had the Lennox 13pc for $79

The only new one is the 2″ hole saw, the rest are the standard bi-metals without the carbide tips

The thing I worry about is I think @JimboS1ice bought the Milwaukee hole saws last time they were on sale and had some issues.

I meant that it’s just a new set, reasonably priced. Nothing ground breaking but Diablo is Diablo.

What a scam. I was going to pick up a set but it looks like you’re right.

Yea I was walking around with it in the store and was pumped until I stopped and started looking at it. I looked online too when I got home and I don’t see any kits out that contain all carbide tipped hole saws. They are probably trying to sell off the old stuff before they release new kits

I bought this set last week. They are still good hole saws. I’ll probably replace them with the carbide tipped counterparts as they need replacing.

You know I didn’t even make it down that aisle. [emoji15] not sure if it would be the same price, but there was probably some other decent items marked down in there.

Mine has saved Me a few times already. Still wish it was a little better quality, but for the money it’s not bad. I would like to upgrade sometime to the M-Spector Flex with the pivoting scope.

That’s what I worry about. I found Jimbo’s video:
I’ve lost trust in Milwaukee’s bits in general but that doesn’t necessarily mean that this set is bad but I don’t like the track record, just my thoughts. You guys have 90 days to check reviews yourselves.

Thanks I’ll check the vid out now. What are you guys using instead? Paddle bits or all the other options instead?

I have this same set. Bought it 3 Black Fridays ago IIRC. Back when they were in the “Ice Hardened” phase. They’ve been good. Not top of the market good, but they’re well worth $40.
ok so after just watching about 5 dif video’s it looks like regular hole saw’s are just SLOW. no matter what the brand. the carbide ones look 10x faster but seem to really get jammed up since only 3 teeth and rough cut. i am super confused now about what to do.
These look like the good ones…

That’s the jist of it. Hole saws are always my last option for making a hole. Whenever I have no choice in the matter, I constantly stop and clean out the teeth with a small wire brush.
The carbide ones last longer, but they don’t cut much better in my experience.
From what I’ve read those are the good ones but u pay for it. I use hole saws often enough but not everyday so I’m happy with what I got for only $40. I don’t see myself buying those big hawg hole saws but as the new diablo carbide tipped saws come out I can see myself buying those as replacements
I just learned that the carbide kit that comes with like 5 is is $160 online… I think i will be sticking with my $40 hole saw kit haha.
These switch blade’s are amazing too! but again over $100 for like 4 bits…
I might pick those up then, I have some store credit I can use too. I only have a couple different types of paddles, might need them eventually. I’ve got the drill press now too. i might make some more drill PVC holder for home since they’re working well at the shop. Hole saws would be better than using my jigsaw to make the handle hole.

Those self feed bits require a lot of torque so I said screw therm and have been using the big hawg ones only for quite awhile.
Simply put, they spank the conventional bimetal style hole dozers! I use them all the time and they are amazing.
They are not carbide tho, but rather hardened steel, and I’ll be in a desperate situation for me to use the bimetal style again…
@Conductor562 I must say in my experience they cut much better than bimetal ones. I used lenox for awhile before I found these big hawg…. Blew me away first time using them and I haven’t looked back.

I’ve been thinking this over and I think the display could have much better quality and would actually much prefer the phone operated boroscope if the image quality is close to that of the phones camera itself…. I say save your money and get the inexpensive one for your phone because looks like the image quality can’t be beat for the price. Ave did a video and I really like the looks of the quality
Wow guys this is the most chat on this thread in a while I think I’m gonna work on an in-depth holesaw thread so everyone get their input and I can try to find specs and videos on all the different types and kinds seems like a lot of people are interested in this as well??

Deal o the Day
Just in case you have any money left over from the BF sales, a Dewalt 20v string trimmer with an extra 5.0 battery and the blower thrown in for good measure is a screaming deal.

I’m pretty sure they raised the regular price for that one. I think it has been $60 for almost a year. It was a Black Friday deal last year, I think it was $50. Dan and Eric reviewed it like a month earlier too.

I’ve been watching these in Houston for 6 months. They haven’t dropped a penny. Been yellow stickered forever!
