Saw one the other day for the first time. In typical Dewalt fashion, it’s better late than never 😆
Figured that was coming lol.
Does look cool. Good find. Thanks.
Wow they went straight to brushless for their cordless multi tool. I’m sure I have to wait till next year for a fuel m18 multi tool.
Its nice but i prefer the Bosch toolless system !
What do you guys think about the paddle like trigger? I prefer a typical on off slide switch and variable speed dial.
For soft material i prefer variable trigger like the jobmax but i use the bosch for hard wood and metal
I prefer a dial also. The variable trigger could be really nice if it has a trigger lock.
I purchased the corded version about a month or so ago and have been using it in combination with my Milwaukee M12 multi tool to do a bunch of trim and finishing work around the house.
I prefer the paddle to the dial and equate it to using a jig saw. It would be really awkward to be in the middle of a jigsaw cut and have to pause in order to adjust the speed. With a lot of the cuts I’ve been making I’ll start in slow and precise to get things going and then give ‘er, powering through to finish the cut! Then, later in the evening with my wife in bed, I start in slow and precise to get her going and then give ‘er powering through until I finish! 🙂
There are times that I have preferred the dial to the paddle and would love to see both on a tool. If I had to choose one or the other however, I would choose the paddle!
