I bought the Makita Lantern with the digital radio based on your review for camping and around the house stuff and have just bought the kit with the extended pole saw, hedge trimmer and whipper snipper with more batteries and another fast charger. Seems that I now have as many batteries and chargers as a tradie. I think I have issues.................. Thanks for the videos. Hope you have a great festive season.
My surprising favorite makita tool is the 40V Brushless 270mm Rail Circular Saw HS011GZ. Great for fencing, run the track, get all the posts square and level. The saw is light enough and manageable to use every day. I was expecting a scary horrible torque monster, it's surprisingly controllable even when cutting posts at 1.8m.
Got some money for Christmas, and low and behold, it's the right amount for the Microwave... I'm gonna do it! Been wanting one since we brought them into the store!
I can't believe the little 6 1/4 with the removable side of the base plate wasn't in there... awesome little saw and bought it from your review for a large floor removal during the year. Love your work Merry Christmas bro
I got the impact from Japan. Your recommendation was spot on - it is perfection. Coincidently the small blade left saw has seen a lot of use in my hand - very good saw! Somehow the battery appears to run longer on this than on the large blade left saw doing the same tasks.
76mm grinder I think 173 impact is japan only so i bought a 172 by mistake still pretty good but i want that ring light Waiting impatiently for 3 inch nailer Couple of grinders Heat gun The lxt barrow is fantastic
Knew it......your top choice of 2023 had to be what it is for sure. Can't wait for the UK to get the DTD173 (even though i just got another DTD172 in my collection) Can't beat the functionality of this DTW172 impact driver compared to other brands. excited to see what Makita has to offer in the way of LXT Batteries as from experience here in the uk Makita takes their time to make sure things are good before they get put out. Have a great Xmas ans see you in the new year 2024.
Hey tools. Do you know if makita is planning to release some of their battery powered staplers in europe. They have them in japan for more than a year..
they could make snowmobile and electric bicycles for kids 😮 or even for grown, with 4x18v 😳👍 kind of if you dont work anymore but have a lot of accumulators. or invent kind of screwdriver that you could use as a motor for bicycle with usual 18v 🤔
This gives me a headache! Why would they make the best impact in 18v and not the 40v, where do you go to see the latest versions of tools, it's so confusing with all the different #'s for the same tool! My head hurts!
They alternate back and forth between the 18V flagship and the 40V flagship. The 40V is still rated for more torque, has a couple extra modes and has the Dual Spring Technology (which increases IPM quite a bit up to 4600). But in reality they have about the same torque.
I bought 7, 2 LXT 5 XGT, Gotta say all the tools I upgraded to 40v were worth it, especially the router, it tears through much tougher wood and the bits seem to last longer
Did you see yesterday's Makita vid? ua-cam.com/video/gfXOetj6rXo/v-deo.html
I did, loved the power cut🖖
Thank you tools! For all you do! Makita fans everywhere applaud you!🎉
I just can't take the nail gun suspense any longer 😢!
DUde's pumping content on the final days of the year, amazing stuff man!
Last one in 12 hours from now...
Merry Christmas Tools ❤ 🇦🇺

The DMC300 has been so useful for me this year as well. I hope they release an XGT version
Thank you for making all the videos. Here’s hoping for an XGT TD173 early next year.
For me, as a gardening professional, the bl4040f is the best. I want to see how it improves the use of my small pruning chainsaw and saber saw.
Things are going to get MUCH better by the end of November 2024!
Thanks Tools for your awsome makita reviews # building dreams
Any news on when that BL4040F will come to the USA? Or maybe there is an overseas source?
Even if I diversify (which I might soon)I will always love Japanese tools, and I will always have makita in my kit.
Thank you Mr. Stuff.
I'd love to see an oil impulse version of the 173. Merry summery Christmas over there!
That'd be sweet. Well... it rained all Christmas day here unfortunately.
Don't worry. Santa has rain gear. :)@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
Got some money for Christmas, and low and behold, it's the right amount for the Microwave... I'm gonna do it! Been wanting one since we brought them into the store!
I want all of these tools as I dont have any of these, and thats saying something form someone with 27 Makita cordless tools!
Keep up the work;)
Glad someone is doing such extensive reviews on makita👍
Cheers for your support, next Makita Review in about 9 hours...
Merry Christmas mate , keep up the good work 👏
I can't believe the little 6 1/4 with the removable side of the base plate wasn't in there... awesome little saw and bought it from your review for a large floor removal during the year.
Love your work Merry Christmas bro
It's a 5" saw and was released a few years ago, that's why it wasn't in the list. It might have been in last year's list? Great little saw.
Merry Christmas! To another year of fueling my tool addiction
Actually they will start producing dtd173 for europe in 2024 september, according to my sources, so we will have to wait
Lol. Way to get your hottest product to market, Makita. 🤣
Been using the td173 for a year and didn't know about the feature that keeps the light on! I might need to buy one for my camping set up.
Tack!
tack du också!
The Great Scot returns, Merry Christmas, keep up your Scotch content 🥳🥳🥳
Oh i thought the dtd713 was out last year. No glow in the dark bumber ring though. Hard to say what my favourite tool was they made this year
Thanks your great work. You're a bloody legend!
Cheers man, I'm going to make you a quick vid about the saw guard sometime today hopefully.
Thanks for all the great videos over the year 🎉keep up the good work.
Cheers for your support 👍

Merry Christmas mate! Enjoy some quieter days and the new year's fireworks. 🎆
I got the impact from Japan. Your recommendation was spot on - it is perfection.
Coincidently the small blade left saw has seen a lot of use in my hand - very good saw! Somehow the battery appears to run longer on this than on the large blade left saw doing the same tasks.
Thanks for all the good videos, keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
Thanks. Merry Christmas

Any word on a 173 impact xgt equivalent? Cheers
Nothing definitive yet.
Gotta make the 40v waffle iron first.
Hey tools. Do you know if makita is planning to release some of their battery powered staplers in europe. They have them in japan for more than a year..
Good question!
I just got the Makita JV002g and I haven’t seen anyone else with one!
4 hours until my review...
they could make snowmobile and electric bicycles for kids 😮 or even for grown, with 4x18v 😳👍 kind of if you dont work anymore but have a lot of accumulators. or invent kind of screwdriver that you could use as a motor for bicycle with usual 18v 🤔
what is tabless cell? are those like the dewalt's powerstak?
I explain it here ua-cam.com/video/btr6vj8OEiY/v-deo.html
Merry Xmas Makita Elf ! … preying to Anjō Santa for a small XGT inverter of some sort in 2024!
I can offer you an inverter of sorts...
I would like to purchase the TD 173D. How can I purchase this impact driver. Thank you in advance.
There are some links for purchasing in the description.
This gives me a headache! Why would they make the best impact in 18v and not the 40v, where do you go to see the latest versions of tools, it's so confusing with all the different #'s for the same tool! My head hurts!
They alternate back and forth between the 18V flagship and the 40V flagship. The 40V is still rated for more torque, has a couple extra modes and has the Dual Spring Technology (which increases IPM quite a bit up to 4600). But in reality they have about the same torque.
How many Makita tools did you buy in 2023? I’ll start off…. I bought 9 (all LXT)
I bought 7,
2 LXT 5 XGT,
Gotta say all the tools I upgraded to 40v were worth it, especially the router, it tears through much tougher wood and the bits seem to last longer
Started year of with six piece xgt set from mitre 10 using beat it by 15% guarantee. Then xgt 270mm saw and xgt impact wrench.
2 CXT, 11 LXT, 17 XGT))) From Russia with love!
Cheers to another year! Don't feel you have to pump out content at this rate if it's burning you out.
Cheers man... might be some changes next year...
Cant find the DTD173 in NZ yet. 😢
You can get one cheaper from Japan anyway. Delivery in 5 days. Links in description.
I just googled Makita DTD 173, came up on Aliexpress for £46.69 and free shipping, could this be genuine?
Most definitely not.
No dtd173 available yet, only td173d as of now
These are Chinese once, they don't hide it. There are tools on ali though that originals but for regular prices
🛠️⚒️🪛🔧🪚🗜️🧰
Thanks man, much appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks for your support.
Thanks!
Thank you and Happy New Year!
