Can’t wait for him to cut two or three pieces of wood and tell us how amazing it is.
Any idea on release dates anyone?
NA? UK? AUS?

Most of the shills are getting samples in NA so I’d presume it’s release could be any time now.
As for UK and AUS, I’d guess at Q2 next year.
We are one of the shills who got that plus the new compact 6-/12″. Both saws are awesome. The 7-1/4 is powerful but I still prefer the rear handle. I know a ton of people who prefer a top handle saw so it will be a good fit for those.
This shill has the little 6 1/2″. I cut 4 boards just for you guys. It’s awesome.
But seriously, it’s fantastic.

Is shills a positive or negative thing ? I’m confused here 😀

As time has gone on and people have become a little more wise to it, they’re a lot more open to their relationship without giving away any more than required to justify their position.
Just to clarify. I am not a shill, just being silly. Companies send products for showcasing and review. I have zero obligations to say, hey, this is awesome. I critique everything equally.

The Milwaukee shills are the easiest to identify. They’re the ones who cite the PowerState Brushless Motor ™, Red Lithium Batteries ™ and Red Link Plus ™ technology.
There’s one in particular who fits this criteria to a T and his show rhymes with Snarky.
Oh yeah…this saw looks sweet, too. 😀

Post of the century right here. It’s funny ’cause it’s true. 🙂

Ah then I’ve easily noticed him being a ‘ shill’ without even knowing the word 😀

Yes. Not sure on price
A lot of new Makita stuff are suppose to come out next month according to a Makita rep in NZ. I have been saving some money for a Martinez hammer or a DTD171. Wait and see.
No price as yet but looks like we’re getting dust extraction, AWS and an option hook in Aus 👌👍

$349 AUD for the non-AWS version
$399 for the AWS 👍👍
Btw. There’s an AWS adapter coming that you can plug into the socket of any corded vac u already own 🙂
so you can start all AWS tools with your existing vac ( if it has a socket of course )
