SWEET drill dude, you can’t go wrong with a Makita, they are built well, and I do like that blue color. What kind of battery is that thing using, whats the runtime? Yeah, the weather here has been so dam hot you can cook an egg on the street. I say its so dam hot I saw these boys in orange robes burst into flames, it was that hot I’m tellin you. Congrats on your new drill, and thanks for sharing some pics of it.

Ya i wanna do some testing on the makita aswell prob film some of itPROTOOLNUT wrote:
Nice, love to see that baby in action. See, I plan to do some action video’s for the forum of my 2604. I will show it starting a lawn mower with a 15/16 socket, I will show it drilling wood with a 1 and 1/2 inch spade bit. I am hoping it will do it in speed 2, but if not, I have no doubt that M18 will do it in speed 1. And I thought I would sacraphice a small piece of 3/8 plywood to show it drilling a massive 5 inch hole with a holesaw. They said it couldn’t be done, we shall see. So when the spade bits arrive, I will begin testing 😉

Ya there pretty badass gotta respect those tools forsurePROTOOLNUT wrote:
I find those gas powered masonry saws to be some of the loudest pieces of equipment I ever heard, I can’t even get around one without hearing protection, chainsaws can be just as bad.

Enjoy your new beast of a Drill. Makita has turned it around lately and had some really good releases lately. Not that their tools were ever bad but the releases that made it to north america took awhile.
What is the difference in color between the blue and white does that mean anything

well done. I’m kinda regretting Gifting my small Makita set away. Enjoy yours.
I believe the difference is battery platforms. White is lesser run time etc. and more homeowner grade. Teal is their professional quality LXT gear.Jack Tibbetts wrote:

No, it’s just a battery platform name like M18 or 20V Max. There are brushed and brushless tools in the lineup.Jack Tibbetts wrote:

Not trying to argue but My white set (18v compact driver and impact) and my teal set(hammer drill and recip saw) had LXT on the side.
But it may have been homeowner vs professional color scheme thing. Their 10v drill/ impact driver combo are also white.
Edit: quick google suggest the white 18v line have the shorter runtime batteries aimed at the homeowner / DIYer / low end contracting crown and the real line are the longer running flagship line.
Could be that’s just the name of their lithium batteries in general. When I first started buying power tools I wanted Makita but was told by a few people “make sure you buy the right color of makita so you end up with the platform you want”. I didn’t want to look into it too much so just said screw it and bought red lol.
Toronto congrats bro On the new makita set and Thanks for sharing pics!!

Great score Toronto, I snagged that drill/impact/ Chirac saw, and that chain saw as well, great products. Don’t forget to register your new tools with Makita….
