This review is from: Bare-Tool Makita BPB180Z 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Portable Band Saw (Tool Only, No Battery) (Tools & Home Improvement) Doesn't quite feel like it has the same amount of power as the Milwaukee corded band-saws, but the portability is unmatched. I'm getting about 70 to 80 cuts per charge cutting unistrut so the battery life is pretty good. The whole tool feels extremely rugged and I expect it will last a long time. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: Makita Portable band saw, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Bare-Tool Makita BPB180Z 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Portable Band Saw (Tool Only, No Battery) (Tools & Home Improvement) A high quality tool that has performed very well. It's very powerful and durable. I don't use it commercially but have used it several times doing projects at home. The warranty is great and Makita allows you to register your tools online where the info is accessible if ever needed. I own several cordless and powered tools. Makita's craftsmanship and quality are second to none. They are by far the best tools I own. 12 of 16 people found the following review helpful: After you have everything else........, By Terry the toolman "Mr. Makita" (coastal washington) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Bare-Tool Makita BPB180Z 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Portable Band Saw (Tool Only, No Battery) (Tools & Home Improvement) I really dig makita tools and have almost exclusivly makita and milwaukee gear. I am a genuine tool junkie and if I dont have one you dont need it. I was amazed when I saw this thing and really bought it almost as a novelty,I mean this is real toolman bling bling. You dont have everything until you have a cordless powerhack..chuckle chuckle....but this buddie came and no sooner arived than I had uses for it. pipe..rebar..locks..angle iron... you name it, a lot of jobs I ordinarily grab a sawzall and a metal blade for can be done with a lot more finess with this saw and it seems to have plenty of power for long enough.The l.e.d light is a nice touch as well. I gotta give Makita 5 blings for coming up with this one....So after you have everything else.... |
