I just realized I'm watching an advertisement video.
Looking for tips on how to care for a Skill Saw? Just buy this one you swine!
What a terrible video.
"It wont work with the cover off"
Bruh there's no battery 😂
I'm glad you said it.. i was gunna comment that
Same love how they cut it out to try to save face :)
I was going to say the same thing lmao I guess that will go to the blooper reel lmao.
Seemed like he was trying to be funny to me
I was sitting here chuckling at that pretty good; seriously, how many of us have been trying to use our cordless tool, and took a few clicks of the trigger before we realized there was not battery on it. LOL
Just cover the baseplate with masking tape and replace as it starts tearing away. Easy peasy.
I burned a cover plate out on my plasma table. Slides over the bottom and tightens down with a finger screw. Takes 10 seconds.
Just gotta say Vince, I got those glasses because of your review, and I believe those are some of the best safety glasses I've ever used. So comfortable and fog free!
Hi, what is the brand of the glasses? Would like to get some, thanks.
@@ernbauti it's the newish milwaukee Safety glasses. I got the one with a gasket. It was strange at first because I'm sorta used to have glasses fog up when also wearing a mask. It never happened with these but I always felt like it was going to happen at any minute.
I soley have a saw just for finishing only. If i cut metal i have the Milwaukee metal saw ive got the old one as that one is not available in our country yet however ill buy it when it comes out just so i have it cause love Milwaukee and have almost everything 😂
They all work together despite their differences...to bad people can't do that 😞
Holy shit the thickness of the metal that is cutting is just crazy! We would use an oxy-acetylene or a heavy duty plasma cutter to cut metal that thick back when I worked as a welder fabricator. I could never have imagined a cordless saw cutting metal that thick, what a freaking monster! I would have killed to have one of those back then, it would have been so nice to have when cutting truck frames in half when doing frame stretches to make super clean straight cuts!
Not crazy at all its basically like a grinder just in a skill saw Form.
Vince is a really comical guy!
Thanks Vince,
You once again bring that special magic to tool explanation.
@VCGConstruction As an Ironworker I have used this saw a whole lot. Anything from metal sheeting, decking and I Beams. And I love it! Great recommendation for those who may have not discovered this tool as of yet.
Vince is credible because he is in the trade that uses this type of equipment he reviews. Thanks sir. Keep up tje great reviews and fun commentary.
Like the Makita metal Circ saw, as it collects “chips” really well & does a good job at cutting. Been the go to for years; but after seeing this saw; would really like to try it out & compare them.
Love the fun having with the “battery talk”, That made me smile 😅
Maybe 8.0 battery works well & does reduce weight with still giving a good performance & run time🤷🏼♂️
Have a good one✌🏼
Thanks Aepek, we appreciate the feedback!
I bought this kit about a month ago and I love it! So worth it. After every cut it’s weld ready!!! Nice and clean. love it
I didn't know about the cells being better is what was making the same size batteries more powerful until I heard you talk about it in another video Vince, I always wondered with the XC 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0amp batteries since they were all the same size. I never saw a reason to get a 3.0amp battery when I could get a more powerful longer running 5.0amp battery that was the same size even though the 5.0amp batteries cost a little more, same with the 1.5 and 2.0amp batteries.
At work we use that for all kinds of stuff. When we cut finish grade wood we just throw some duct tape on the shoe. It works really well and it means you take up less room in the job trailer.
11:12 cuz there is no battery 😂 I've done that myself more times than I want to admit, 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
no battery is needed in order for the trigger to be pulled in...he was showing the safety feature of the saw
kingofthecrease30 circular saws usually have a safety button close to the trigger
When i have to cut doors i always use masking tape to protect the doors finish and also tape the saw too. The doors cost between 2-8k each. Taking an extra 5 min to tape is well worth the peace of mind.
Wtf kind of doors are you cutting stained entry doors those must be cherry wood or somethin you should use a 80 or 60 tooth my best advice is to have them costumed ordered with one of the guys from the lumber yard l saves a whole hell of a lot of time and if they send the wrong size have them come pick it back up but then again the way this bs is with this corona virus everything is all fked up
@@ztej no. Aluminum doors. Some are custom special order. My saw has a 60 tooth blade.
Wow that's a very impressive saw. Seems almost as fast as plasma cutting and that's nuts.
Definitely made to cut metal fast!!
I love this version, I have had the corded version model 6370-20, have had it for 8 years and used it all the time steel stud framing.
Wowwww, I could have used that saw to cut re-bar 30 years ago. They are coming a long way!! Awesome video Vince!!!
Thanks Chip!
I only know the difference between the 6.0 and 8.0 because I asked you a couple days ago on Instagram. Thanks again!
@Vcg construction, Finally I have a use for the rear handle! I hate that thing! After I bought the SPTH77M I never looked back! The rear handle has sat in the shop or is only used on the boat for dock builds & repair!
I dropped phone and accidentally skipped to where the motor, cpu and batteries talking to each other. Apparently one of them speaks spanish too? I made sure to start video over again, to ensure quarantine hasnt made Vince lose his got dayum mind. 🤪
🤣🤣👍🏻
I would've thought at least on would speak Chinese! lol Also Vince sounded like he should be talking smack in a wrestling ring.
I did know that obviously the8.0ah was a longer lasting battery than the 6.0ah but did not know about the difference in architecture inside for the added power and runtime. I have been watching a lot of the V.C.G. Videos to learn more about the tools I have and some I plan to buy. Waiting on my 3plane laser to ship and biting my nails in anticipation of its arrival. Thx for these videos and look forward to seeing more of the as more tools come out. Stay safe out there, thank you again - Jay Pfister
It probably wasn't working because of the battery being out of it. LOL
Love the show man.
Happy Saturday Guys @vcgconstruction
Been using the corded metal saw for years, been a good one. Won't be getting the cordless, to much cutting for batteries
Yeah, once they get out there and start using it, their gonna realize they cant cut all that angle and channel they were showing. Its a little different if you gotta cut a few for a home reno, but your not using this at a plant lol
When you start hearing your tools talk, it might be time for a vacation 😆
Thx4 vid Vince! Saw your comment on scratching base of worm drives. . Get in the habit of placing the saw down on its blade side. Works on any flat surface. surface. Ground deck etc. Your saw will not tip onto the base. Comes from my days of 'trac'framing with the guard pinned up. Safety thing. DON'T DO THIS. OSHA GETS EXCITED!
Thank you for the tips and feedback watti!!
The right tool for the right job.
That new cordless Milwaukee metal cutter saw is a HOSS! I have the plug in model and the Skilsaw WD 8” metal cutter.Like both!
I'm Just a diesel mechanic with interest in carpentry that is ready to build something haha I've done some builds though,next is kitchen island
My guy just learned “relegate” but doesn’t quite know what it means lol
Haha exactly what I was thinking. xD Great channel tho...
He meant designate.
Ted lasso? Lmao
He used the word exactly right.
Relegate, consign or dismiss to inferior rank or position, for example, taking your good wood cutting saw and cutting metal with it, a dirty task that's not good for your saw, a lesser task, an inferior rank. He used the word exactly how it should be used. Don't be a dipshit.
How do you see the cutline? Look's like it is hard to aim with this tool
You goof, no battery in it when you were trying it with the guard off hah.
About to say the same thing
Dude is spot on!
Facepalm!
Vince forgot his performance enhancing drug of choice: COFFEE!!!. Have you some coffee please. Then try again.
Everyone stay safe and well.
you dont need a battery in order for the trigger to pull in...he was trying to show how the safety works on the saw....does not matter if a battery was in place
I love this guy he is so entertaining!
Vince is the king!
He’s become much more comfortable talking while doing stuff. He used to get easily distracted and was a bit all over the place. Still always been great vids
This man is craaaazyyy :))))) big like !
I know to much work for most but if you get teflon cut to fit then drill half way through it for some washers and rivets to secure to . It will last long time and replace when it wears I just happened to have some. I'm sure there is better deals but you can get it to go around a semi trailer pin for $20
Dude, what?
the 8 inch blade is nice on the metal circular saw but it doesn't cut any deeper then the Milwaukee 7 1/4 circular saw...i invested in the makita cordless cut off saw instead its better for most of what i do and so far i love it.
Nearly every jobsite i've been at recently you need to set up an area to use an angle grinder, and you need a "hot-work" card to prove you know the dangers. That's why sawzalls, circular saws end up on metal cutting duty because they don't produce sparks (or at least not the same amount as the angle grinder.)
Battery my guy! The battery wasn't in the tool, that why it wouldn't run with the cover off 😉 great tool, looking to pick one up. Thanks for all the great videos.
They all work together
If you cut metal, just get a evolution saw and if you cut sheet metal sometimes, just cut it with a carbide tipped blade
@VCG Construction, after using my DeWalt 6-1/2" blade left circ saw, I don't know if I could go back to blade right. I really like the sight line on the blade left.
Prefacing I am not a professional contractor. But I feel like if your cutting metal you already have a designated metal saw. I feel like cutting metal is not something you "kind of do" you either do or you dont. Am I wrong? I dont actually know, and I'd like to know.
Oh my God my uncle grinds my gears in a PG sense he never lets the blade come up to speed he just pushed every saw right in and you can hear the engines struggling he's pushing so hard. he's burned up more saws then I can count. Our multi purpose saw is spewing out grease already and it's only a month or so old. Kinda off topic but he does this with circular saws most and they almost sling right out his hands
Honestly that's good advice i can say I didn't think about that though I hardly ever use a circ saw.
@@ucitymetalhead with any power tool always do those 2 things don't force the blades and let them come up to speed which takes legit only a second or two and you can make even the cheapest of tools last you I had the harbor freightjig saw for 4 years I used it pretty regularly mice got to the cord one night or I'm sure I'd still have it. Always check your blades make sure their good still take care of your tools and they'll take care of you.
CONGRATS TO VCG ON 228,000 SUBSCRIBERS !!! 👍👍
Thanks Cuz, we appreciate it!!
Have the M12 metal cutting saw and it’s been great. Will have to get the M18 for bigger jobs.
My guess is maybe the battery makes the tool too lopsided and makes it more difficult to make straight cuts. Or they can just get away with it and are saving money
the 8Ah battery will give you more runtime compared to the 6Ah battery. The higher the Ah battery the longer the runtime. The quality of the battery has alittle affect on runtime, but still comes down to capacity of the battery. This is the same for the Radio Control Car industry.
Excellent demo video 👍 I erect metal buildings last one 100,000 sq foot this saw works ,
Vince forgot to put the battery on.
What’s the best blade to pair with the skillzaw?
I have some threaded rod ("all thread") to cut just send it over to me and I'll test it out for you 🤣🤣🤣
Convert to abrasive disc off a stihl saw 410 off you go lol
Thanks for you and for Milwaukee
thought i was going to learn something new about circular saws upon stumbling into a promo for milwaukee (vcg secret sponsor). i absolutely agree with not taking my everyday saw & using it to make some metal cuts & wouldve have done the same in going to one of my old to accomplish the task. im not sure how the quality of the batter makes the difference in 6-8AH battery tho, must be a redfuel thing.
It'll cut way better if you keep the cut depth all the way down. I cut 3/8 and 1/2 every day with my Fein 7.25.
Who else realized he said it didn’t work but yet he ain’t have the battery in😂💀💀 11:10
Thanks for the recommendation to read the manual. That is a good reminder. I think the 8 inch blades will be expensive.
lmao. maybe the battery is not in? thanks for the laugh.
Welcome to the over 40's club LOL What a great saw been waiting to see this
Vince is so extra lay off the coffee 😂😂
No stopping the coffee!
You lost me there!! “Cutting molding with a circular saw” lol
Love the Milwaukee leather gloves vince @vcgconstruction
Going thru old videos for fun n boredom right at end with the bolt cutting to see if burr free you called the nut a bolt 😅 can’t even tell ya how many times I swear that I or my buddies have always mixed up the names when talking to one another about it thankfully we all know what the hell we meant lol.
That things got a serious break on it nicely done milwaukee...! And you too vince as always.. watched your tool talkin demo like 5 times.. 🤣🤣🤣
Performs pretty well even for a right facing saw might pick one of these up i do alot of welding on mobile automotive service calls great video Vince Cuz @vcgconstruction
How could there be casino chips produced by this saw ? Is this a hint to a coming saw that weill produce casino chips ? And, of what value ?
Looking forward to THIS SAW !
To bad the Milwaukee metal cutting 8 inch saw isn't a left facing blade saw @vcgconstruction
Awesome. Wonder how it does on ductile pipe. 🤔
I’d expect it might do okay!!
Hikoki has a Multivolt saw that goes up against the big metal saw. Unfortunately, Metabo HPT hasn’t brought it stateside yet. Would love to see them head to head.
What are some applications which would render a metal circular saw relevant? Why would you get a metal cutting circular saw when you could just use a handheld band-saw?
Long cuts. Say, across 1/4” thick 4’x 6’ sheet metal. No handheld bandsaw is going to cut that in half. There’s a limited depth for a bandsaw.
@vcgconstruction have you ever seen the m18 fuel circular saw on sale, if so what time of the year? Also, I've never seen the high output HD 8 batteries on sale either, have you'll ever seen those on a discount sale???
I used to have a Milwaukee V28 Metal Cutting Circular Saw. 15 years ago.
Must be getting the job done if it’s been in use for 15 years!! 👍🏻
I was wondering what the hell you were talking about until the commercial started. Because I've been a carpenter for 30 years and most of the time I have a few saws for different materials. I'll use a different saw for concrete set up and for cutting Hardie plank so I don't have to change blades for cutting trim and the dust turns into slurry in the rain and it rains alot here. But there's been times when I only had one saw because one fell off a roof or someone cut the cord off ect and also when I started out I only had one saw to use and I never had a problem using one saw for framing, metal siding/roofing, Hardie plank, or concrete set up including cutting rebar with a cut off blade if I had too.
Its works with the battery installed
Solution: have a saw for every kind of blade... Like guitars, guns, routers, clamps (well, virtually everything a guy needs) you can and SHOULD have more than one!
hilti have also one designed for metal : SCM 22-A (in europe)
Haha ur funny dude. I’m starting out learning about tools. Never cut a piece of wood in my life! This feels like a great channel to follow to get me learnt 😁
Welcome aboard!
Welcome! I cut preciously little wood, I'm more into metal, but that is what is fun with VCG and the gang: we all do our own thing but still have alot of fun together.
Never would have thought about scratching the base. Would found out after I ruined an piece of trim
Great Coverage on Circular Saws 🍻🤙
Thanks Justin, we appreciate it!
I'm sure it was the weight. 8 ah is lighter and yet their next highest capacity. Yet 6ah is their most powerful.
Sweet a Milwaukee metal cutting saw @vcgconstruction
I tried to do a 4 foot rip with the corded version and my blade was dull before I even finished. 3/16 thickness.
Can you put teflon feet on the bottom like a computer mouse? Seems like that would solve the issue of scratching.
I wonder if Milwaukee will ever make a battery power jaws of life tool 😊
Maybe every other one should be a Decaf Vince?
Glad you're into the saw. It's cool, it is pretty pricey, but, hey, it gets the job done...
FWIW, Duct tape on the shoe will let you do some metal work and save the shoe. Some people even add a sheet of wood or plastic with #4 or #6 flat head machine screws. You haven't lived until you cut using a saw with a polyethylene shoe. Slick, especially on particle board or OSB.
Morning Vince
Looks like a nice tool at first glance.
If you can, check out the Fein Slugger 9" The Milwaukee at first glance resemble the Slugger. When Milwaukee copied the Festool 10.5V D handle multi head cabinet drill.
I am wondering if Milwaukee maybe copied Fein and added there 18V battery to it ?
Thanks for the video Vince.
Thanks Stephen, I’ll see what we can work up!
So in short, if you are cutting wood with your circular saw don't lay it on concrete or abrasive material, and if you cut metal or concrete keep an eye on the metal shoe to make sure it won't scratch the wood while you cut it if you are making something, where the wood is going to show.
Milwaukee sells the metal cutting saw
A roll of blue tape prevents my saw table from getting scratched and from making scratches. Could be a good saw for union or metal guys. If it doesn’t make daw dust I sub it out.
I mean. You can turn your blade over if you are usuing a older saw that you dont like. And use a regular blade.
Yes I know the 8 and the 6 are exact same weight and size. Yet the 6 is the most powerful.
Dude going down one day as the One of the Greatest ..awesome video bro
I'm a metal framer and i wish i'd invested in that metal cutting circular saw...cutting light gauge goes alright but for heavy gauge using a regular circular saw made for wood as you cut the flying metal pieces sticks into your arm and make you bleed which is annoying lol
Long sleeve welders jacket
Has anyone here ever won even a shirt let alone the 10 piece kit with those entry tags? Cuz I have used so many of those damn tags and haven't even won a freaking shirt let alone a 10 piece tool kit!
Yo fellas!! Have a Super Saturday!!!
What up famous Amos!!??
hahahahah safety for the blade guard when it's removed, you didn't have a battery on the saw hahahahah
I’m wondering if it worked after you put the battery in you didn’t say
I haven't seen any good reviews on the m12 bandsaw. Can we get one. Also maybe the deep cut m18 bandsaw
One big Milwaukie commercial
Nice lookin saw
That Milwaukee metal circ ssw looks badass
I use a corded version at work. We cut mack truck frames with it.
