      I have a 1970 grinder, has the wood handle. Had marano repair dealer put new brushes in it a few years ago an got a letter with it when I picked it up, said who ever owns this don't get rid of. Pretty cool I thought

    Acme has the best customer service of any tool store. A few months ago I bought a brand new saw stop table saw and I like 100 miles away from the Duluth store. They delivered it for free and they accidentally left a manual behind they brought it the next day no questions asked and apologized. My favorite part about acme is me and my grandfather use alot of special wood tools some over 50 years old and their parts guys will not stop looking until they find the right part or one that'll work it's awesome what they'll do for their customers.

    I'm a mechanical welder that builds stands for pipes all day and we all use metabo grinders and man do they shred, awesome build quality. Personally I use my dewalt grinder (sorry I forgot the model) mainly due the fact that it has a non-keyed pinon gear meaning if it fucks off on you it slips instead torquing your wrist it has great power and pretty good and straight forward build quality. Other than grinders I don't know much about Metabo sorry.

    Thx for the vid Stan, very interesting & wish had an Acme Tool Store in my town.....would be a kid in candy store. Do like Acme Tools, when I order new tool; they get it out to me in about 3 days, & I’m in Florida 👍🏻 (sometimes it does take 4, it that’s still quick). The other great thing, I’ve never had 1 issue from them of packages arriving damaged. They do a great job at shipping stuff out & making sure they are packed tight & great within shipping box (it’s frustrating when a store ships a “tool” in the retail packaging that they just slapped a shipping label on...REALLY! Do they not know how carriers transport this stuff, not exactly “gentle”😅), Also appreciate the customer support/service from Acme. If something is wrong when you get your order, they WANT you to be happy & will make it so that you are. Great company to work with, & wish started working w/ them sooner; b/c think would have saved myself some headaches over the years....

      It seemed to have "blocks" for teeth, as a diamond blade chainsaw blade for concrete would have, particularly since it was positioned with the concrete saws. I don't doubt blades like you're thinking of exist, but they'd have close to normal teeth for cutting wood/sheathing, but in a manner to not be destroyed by shingles or metal roofing/flashing.

      Also, look at it again 6:34, it has a water hookup like a normal concrete saw.

      Metabo is not Hitachi. They are owned by the same parent company.
      Metabo is a German company, very respected in Europe. Hitachi is a Japanese company.
      Hitachi power tools are now called Metabo HPT in America and Hikoki in Europe. This has something to do with the rights to the Hitachi name.
      Both very good brands but not the same.

    • @JV-wl6ex
      @JV-wl6ex 5 років тому +1

      Milwaukee is on fire with all of the new lineups and specialty tools. It seems like every few days or at least weekly they are releasing an upgrade or specialty tool that I didn’t know I needed next! I thought the other brands were keeping up but that’s not the case. The only tool line could give them a run is Makita and I don’t think they’re interested a drug out turf war and so they keep to themselves and specialize in what they know best and every once in a while they kick out something new to the lineups. Stanley/Dewalt/B & D are trying to give big red some competition but their tool allergies keep slowing them down. I’m glad to see Milwaukee acting like the old business even if they are just a shell of what they were when they were Wisconsin based and building bulletproof hole hawgs & the original sawsall. I would be all over their new battery lineups now that they make 12 Ah lunchbox batteries with super chargers that recharge the largest batteries in just 1 hours time! Unreal!

    Aren't these stores incredible?! I visited the Acme in Fargo ND. Wow! What a store. It was just a few days after I won a full Makita OPE set from a tool review I submitted to them. Bought the new Milwaukee rear handle saw while I was there, and the Makita model soon after. Could have spent a full week in there. Sadly had to get to work. But I'll make it a point to stop in their locations whenever I'm in the area. It's a must visit, bucket list kind of place for tool junkies like me. Two highly enthusiastic thumbs up!!

    Iron works are a very valuable tool for iron work. We had a Scotchman at the fab shop I worked at. You can punch round, square, oval, slots. 10 times faster than a drill. Not portable like a drill though. You can cut angle iron, round bar, square bar, flat bar, some plate, notch pipe and square tube, bend iron, make U-bolts, and square u-bolts.

      The splitting wood had to do with the nails being driven along the cleavage grain of the wood. It was the nails that caused the splitting not the bit.
