Makita BDF452HW 18-Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Driver-Drill Kit Review

I've owned a 12v Dewalt drill for 10 years and although it still works great running on it's second set of battery's, I was looking for something with a bit more power,12v tools seem to run out of juice on larger heavier jobs so I was looking for an 18v drill.

Did some research and came up with the the Makita BDF452HW and ordered it from Amazon. First impressions great ! What a beautiful well balanced tool, fits in the hand very well, extremely light, ratcheting chuck, LED light, lots of torque for those heavy jobs, and the cherry on top is the quick charge Lithium ion batteries. I was very impressed with the whole package so I took it for a spin. By chance the first task that came to hand required some finesse, a 1/16" hole in a small computer connector, not the typical work for this heavy duty beast but you have to use your new toy.

When I drilled the hole, the drill bit shook and the drill itself seemed to have some vibration so I did so careful testing. After testing various bits and setups I determined that the chuck was off center and was causing any drill bits to wobble, not greatly, but enough you could feel it and enough to physically bend a small bit. I had noticed a previous review mentioned chuck wobble but after assessing the large number of positive reviews I dismissed it a just bad luck, it happens.

***** Five stars to Amazon's customer support, I returned the drill for an exact replacement, no charge and three days later I had another Makita in my hands ready to test. Sadly the second drill also suffered from the same fate, off center chuck causing the bits to wobble. I must be too critical so I compare drill holes with the Makita and my 10 year old Dewalt. I noticed two striking differences, the Dewalt was completely without any vibration, no doubt here, it was perfect. The second thing I noticed was the trigger speed control, the Dewalt was very smooth and seemed to be infinetly adjustable allowing me to very accurately control the speed, were the Makita had distinctive speed steps, not quit the control but definitely adequate. Oh yeh and the Dewalt weighted a ton compared to the Makita.

In conclusion, and honestly with great regret I sent the second Makita back for a refund ( ***** Stars to Amazon again !) and ordered the Dewalt DC720KA. It works great and has all of the features of the Makita with two exceptions, weight (its a heavy weight @ 4.8lbs but still very compact) and battery technology, still using NiCad battery's, rather than Lithium Ion.

The Makita is a great product if you can get lucky enough to get one that is put together well, sadly I had two in a row bad. Since the chuck is a little off center, this indicates poor manufacturing tolerances. This may have been a bad batch from a failed CNC machine, or it may be indicative of a more general problem, poor manufacturing practices that ultimately translate into poor quality and usually along with that a poor repair history, and a short product life. Only time will tell if this is a freak batch or indicative of a bigger issue.

Product Feature

• Measurement range of 0" - 12"/0 - 300 mm, with resolution to 0.0005"/0.01 mm
• LCD digital readout displays sharp figures for viewing ease
• Statistical process control (SPC) output transmits results to a computer
• Hand-operated slider with fine-adjustment carriage for precise feed
• Carbide-tipped scriber for hardness and to help prolong life

Product Description

The Standard Gage 07734003 LCD electronic height gauge has a measurement range of 0” - 12 /0 - 300 mm, an LCD digital readout precise to 0.0005 �/0.01 mm, with + or - 0.00157� /0.04 mm of accuracy, and RS-232C data output to transmit results to a computer for statistical process control (SPC).

This height gauge has an electronic microprocessor providing the ability to hold a measurement at any position, to set a temporary zero position and return to a true zero reading, and to convert between standard inch units and metric, and to absolute value . The RS-232C output port transmits results to a computer through an interface cable (not included) for statistical process control (SPC). The scriber, used to mark a position on a workpiece, is 15.7 mm x 75 mm (H x W), carbide-tipped for hardness and to help prolong life, and is held to the gauge by a screw clamp for fastening ease. A calibrated screw mechanism supports fine, uniform slider adjustments. The grip-base helps hold the unit in position by hand. The unit comes with a protective case, a CR2032 battery, and an inspection report./p>

Height gauges, also called gages, are precision measuring instruments that travel on a vertical column (also called the beam) to measure and/or mark the vertical distance from the base of an object in fine units. The vertical position of the gauge and its attached pointer are changed by turning a calibrated screw, or one or more feed wheels. Recorded rotations are read from a scale, a dial, counters, and/or an electronic display. A screw clamp holds the pointer to the gauge. The pointer is typically sharpened to act as a scriber, and can be used to mark position on a workpiece by scratching its surface. On compatible units, the scriber may be replaced by an electronic touch-signal probe. Height gauges are typically used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering.

Standard Gage manufactures precision measuring equipment and metrology hand tools, and is a product line by Hexagon Metrology. Standard Gage is headquartered in North Kingstown, RI.

Air Locker CS80A2 3/8 Inch to 5/8 Inch Heavy Duty Aluminum Body Corrugated Fastener Review

When I received the tool I tried to use the standard corrugated fasteners that all the corrugated guns around here use and they would not work, it would shoot two at a time so I had to order the Air Locker fasteners and when I received them and tried it; it worked great so if you order it make sure you order the air locker fasteners to go with it. I have built several sets of cabinets with it and have had no problems. It is smaller than the others that I have used and seems to have more power than they.
