Its cool how compact this bandsaw is and I’m sure it’s incredibly useful to some people. Personally i would go for the M18 compact instead if i could do it over again. It just has a very narrow window of usefullness. If I worked with more U Channel, conduit and threaded rod I’d be more happy to keep it in my toolbox. I have a wide variety of jobs in a given day from plumbing, heating and electrical and a larger cut capacity would be better for me. That’s just personal preference though. It’s a great little tool if you’re on a project with the size material it’s designed for

I was concerned coming from a plugged rotary, but I am pleased with the power and battery life as well as the freedom from the outlet.
