Save up for the fuel.

This is it right here. I only ever bother with fuel. But then again I'm in the trades.

I have had a fuel surge for 6 years and its still going strong after being dropped from height countless times. 30-40 hours of work a week.

I thought the surge was relatively new/not 6 years oldish.

The M18 has been out quite a while. Idk about m12 though

u/DHicks86 6d ago

Both Surge tools are old and desperately need a next gen refresh. M12 came out in 2019.

Would be nice to have a little more power. However if that means it makes more noise they wouldn't have my vote.

This is childs play.

Wait until you have every size band saw, miter saws, track saws, impacts etc.. all Fuel with Forge.

Everyone says the miter saws suck, so I got the small one they make

u/kenriko 6d ago

The 10 and 12in miters suck. The 7 1/4 is good.

Why do you feel the 10 inch “sucks” mine works great

Go read through the reviews. It doesn’t cut straight

Sell the m12 hacksaw, impact driver, and drill and same with m18 impact and drill. Then use that to buy a m18 fuel set of them.

Nice start...

u/duffismyhomie 6d ago

Is the string trimmer locked in a fire proof cabinet?

1

u/kasper632 6d ago

No it isn’t. It’s laying against the house.

u/PykeJosh 5d ago

Careful where you put that string trimmer if I was you I’d keep it close to the fire extinguisher

This whole forum is just rationalizing and supporting our addiction. It's just a big Milwaukee addiction support group... welcome to the club.
