How does the 260mm compare to the 185mm rear handle for ripping?
I normally use a blade-right sidewinder (top handle). I want a blade-left for times I need to bevel the opposite way and for ripping. Considering it wouldn't be my main saw, I think the extra depth of cut would be worthwhile for times I need it. It will easily handle 4x4 posts here in Canada.
I think I'd go for the 185mm sidewinder for my main saw. The M18 I have will become my beater saw for rough work.
Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!

any LH blades for the skillys coming up?

[Martian]

I 'saw' the whole saw video and am liking the Makita range. I am currently on Hikoki 18v but Makita are making some innovative 'tools and stuff' lately

Merry Christmas, thanks for the great tool reviews, especially Makita. 👍

[markhedquist]

Thanks for the overview. Merry Christmas, Tools!

I have two Xsr01, the 36v 7.5” rear handle saws. Both are horrible ripping, the blade is not square to the frame and cut crooked. I sent one back to Makita for warranty but it came back the same crooked cut. I can’t find any adjustments. Suggestions?
Get the new 40v?

Would be great to do a comparison between the track saw and the The 40V max XGT Brushless 7-1/4 in. Circular Saw with Guide Rail Compatible Base GSH02Z (can’t find outside USA). I wonder if it’s a legitimate competitor for mixed track and skill use.

I've got the 10 1/4 the only thing I didn't think about when buying is the blades are pricey £45

[jumbjuice]

Looking to upgrade my dhs680z. J think the rearhandle 7 1/4" will be perfect

[sambrose]

I want to see the RS001 vs RS002 in a heads up pic in pic rip like you do. On some 100mm. Is the bigger blade going 4000 faster than the smaller blade turning 6400!

[vicchippie]

id love for them to bring out a left side blade 185mm circ i'd buy it instantly. I've grown fond of the left side on my 165mm saw and it's my preferred side

[jackskalski]

Love the video, and the channel TBH, but where do you live with such a nice view at the beginning :) New Zealand ? Scratch that I can see it's NZ :)

[simoncassin]

What is the difference between HS005G, HS006G and HS007G? Do they all have the detachable base section? I cant find info that the HS007G does. Can you provide a link to a HS006G model in Black? And any details when the drill like 40V blower will be available to purchase. I'm in Aus.
Thanks

I'm in Poland and a rear handle is kinda awkward, but then again I always set up my cutting station so I can get both hands on my saw, when it comes to roofing I use my small 150mm or a recip saw ;)

[kip]

I agree with so much of what you’ve said. I’ve wanted a smaller blade saw for a while, I use the 18v as my go to saw, and break out the rear handle for the ripping. I use mine with a prazi chainsaw attachment for beams and man that’s sketchy 😅

[jayt]

Is Makita aware of the blade guard catching during cuts? That seems like an accident waiting to happen. Any way to fix the issue?

[Мафик-ьй]

У меня Makita Drs780 (Lxt) Доволен, делает до 30 м реза на 2×5Ah. Для каркасного строительства лучше пилы с левым диском и задней ручкой, на крыши Обязательно аккумуляторные, чтобы не путаться в проводах.
Для точных плотницких и столярных работ лучше купить погружную с шиной - она у вас окупится на 3 кубометрах необрезной доски)

[drysicle]

would really love a 6 1/2 blade left saw
