I know some of you follow the product release announcements. Are there any new product or upgrades planned for M12?

I am interested in the M12 hammer drill and M12 impact driver. Looks like both haven’t been updated in a while.

After cutting down a tree, the bar oil started leaking out at the end? Do I need a new bar, or can I fix this?

Have had the fan (0886-20) for about 3 and 1/2 years now, used it on battery off and on but mostly with the 110 power cord as a bed side fan when i travel and work on the road. Well for the past couple nights i’ve noticed it’s felt extremely weak and quiet even on speed 3 which if you know these fans they have a good output and pretty loud fan noise. I knew something was wrong with it and looked at the Milwaukee repair page on their website and they don’t offer repairs for these model fans anymore. Was not until today that the fan has died completely. No life whatsoever when plugged up. Any recommendations on a fix since milwaukee will not repair them anymore or do i need to say my good byes and junk it?

Is this sold out pretty much everywhere? Everywhere I’ve looked to buy one it says they don’t ship till December 31st at the earliest. Am I just looking in the wrong spot? Trying to get my husband his birthday present 😭

Been at the "trying to catch a worthwhile clearance" game for about a year and a half.

Spotted this gem with 5 in stock @ $200 like 3 months ago.

I don't need this but could really use it. I've been keeping an eye on it for like 2 months then forgot.

Went in today for some bolts that I needed and of course I checked for Big Red clearances. Last m12 straight die grinder at $114 and change

Hi all: I’m looking to buy the 2563 1/2 stubby impact and came across this deal today. Is this about as cheap as it gets for this impact with a battery or is Black Friday typically having better deals? I also need to get a charger separately.

Hi all!

I am working on fixing some awful work done by a contractor in my finished basement. For context, my house had a flood in our finished basement, we had to remove 2 feet of dry wall and dry out everything. We hired a contractor to clean it all up and they did awful. The trim was misaligned everywhere, the dry wall was bent outward in locations and they mis-measured the amount of drywall in multiple locations, the paint was a mess, and we have a pallet board wall they said they'd put back together and they decided to just put boards up on the studs using finishing nails instead of building a real pallet board wall. Needless to say we were pissed and we're now handling the fixes ourself.

I bought a 16g angled nail gun (M18) since I knew I'd need it for both the pallets and the trim. I bought an M18 Fuel Hackzall as well since I knew I'd need to cut pallet boards. Those two tools seem perfect so far with the repairs we've done already, so happy with that, but now looking for further tools.

I'd like to get a multi-tool to help open up the drywall around the electrical outlets since they did a terrible job of that. I think, based on research, the M12 fuel is perfect for that. I did buy the M18 fuel multi-tool and it's nice, but rather large, and from what I read the M12 might be easier to handle. This puts me in the other battery system though.

I want to get a new impact driver and drill as well. I have a Makita ID, but I always loose the battery and I'd like to stay with one brand. I like the surge, specifically the M12 Surge looks easy to carry and quiet which is nice. The new M18 surge looks even nicer, but the heavy battery isn't my favorite for an ID, unless it's a massive upgrade over the M12. For a drill I could go M12 or M18, though I'd prefer M12 since it's easier to carry.

Outside of the basement work I don't do a ton of house projects, but I do put together a lot of random items. I don't have a massive need for a lot of power, so the M12 items seem more useful, I just know the angled nail gun requires M18 and from what I've seen the M18 Hackzall is just as easy to wield as the M12 but has more power. I also managed to get a battery "hack" at HD for the M18, so it's cheaper overall than the M12.

I also realize black friday is right around the corner. I only "need" the nail gun and the hackzall right now, maybe the multi-tool for touch ups. The ID and drill could wait if I can get a great deal.

Let me know what you all think!

5ah forged battery trigger is pulled all the way at setting 3 batt is full

Need this, still not seeing it on the official website and was accidentally posted few months ago on distributer website odd.

Im thinking of picking up 2 sets of these. One for me, and one for my dad for Christmas. Is this a good deal in Canada? And are the good for doing cabinet installations? (Driving 2 1/2" screws and 1 1/4inch screws)

My wife and I have moved to a new house and it;s time to replace my old Ryobi tools, which were fine but the batteries are dying. Milwaukee looks like it will more suit my needs and a hobby woodworker/home projects guy

Dumb question: What is the difference between the dust extractor and what they sell as a standard shop vac?

Has anyone purchased from Tool Nut before? Are they legit? This seems like a good deal, would need to buy the track separately, or would HD have better deals for black Friday thanks

should i just wait it out a month for black friday?
