Bad comparison. Those two models are so different that this comparison isn't worth much. Sorry.

thanks for the time you took to make this. Very informative and gave me information to make some choices on batteries for this fan I couldn't find anywhere else.

Could you explain why the milling table seems to wobble at around the 5 minute mark? It's constantly going left right. First thought I didn't look right. But it doesn't seem to be the camera. Any idea?

Just what i need, you should market them since that bandsaw is so popular

Wow, a lot of wobble on the x y-axis table.

Sir go for makita best tough strong 💪 Great

Clever and useful with a bit of genius thrown in.

You are adjust the "jib" wrong, that's why you don't have consistent results.

I have a older brushed Milwaukee M12 and also a battery Proxxon IBS/A. For me, the most significant difference is just what you haven’t shown: the proxxon uses a correctly engineered spindle with two bearings on a precision shaft. This results in much quieter operation, less noise, LESS VIBRATION (yours hands will not get so sore, so numb, so fast), less run-out and better overall job quality, as this tool is much more controllable. The Milwaukee is good (battery tools are a game changer). I bought the Proxxon because the bearing of my Milwaukee died. I replaced the bearing, but it’s quite hard to press it correctly, now it wobbles too much.

clean your mouth up...

Doesn't look encouraging

Great video! I bought XC 5.0 batteries just for this fan and I’m happy with them

thanks for the video sir! do you know if the dremel flexi shaft is compatible with the milwaukee?

nice vid. you ever tried a 7.25" diamond blade to cut carbon fiber, tile etc.?

Good video! To be honest I thought the saw would be closer to 500W output with the 5.0HO. They have just released a gen 2 Saw...it will be interesting to see the difference!

I like your terminology, lectrons. 😁😁

Just discovered this review on the FF230. Don't know where I've been....lost I guess. Anyway, very in depth and useful. Thanks for what you do.

Supposedly that particular collet style for the FF 230 is based on a Euro "standard" & given Proxxon is German, that would make perfect sense. Remember too this Mill design is quite old & so all of it's features (collets included) needed to be "backwards compatible" to all the earlier models, however Proxxon has just recently (late 2023) released an "upgraded" version FF 250/BL that features an ER 16 collet system as well as a variable motor like the better FF 500/BL uses. The variances within your speed tests could be explained by your motor being the 110V-60Hz version whereas Euro is 240V-50Hz I have the same FF 230 as you & being in Australia, we're 240V-50Hz & my speeds are very close to the "sticker". As others have already mentioned, that "wood" motor pulley is in fact a Phenolic/fibre composite.

it could be cool to modify it to ER collet , spindle shaft for it look pretty simple , maybe its possible to find ER extension "rod" with same diameter and make it work

The FF400 and FF500 has ER collets.

This thing does a good job on everything I’ve tried to cut on it! Cons? The 90 degree detent is ridiculously inaccurate, and I block the toggle lever open so I can lock it down at a true 90, 45, whatever. And the blade guard is terrible! A pain to accurately cut to a line because you nearly have to stand on your head to see it!

So how do you like the mill now that you’ve had it awhile?

😍 Astonishing!

Pulley at 12:00 is made out of textolite, not wood :)

“A grinder & paint, make me the welder I ain’t!” Lol. Not bad for a first attempt, but tacking the knuckle grater is a challenge for even the most experienced welder! I’m late to the party, and your skills have probably improved over the last 3 years, but when you strike the arc, don’t immediately start moving! Let the arc build heat in the base metal and deposit a puddle big enough to connect both sides of the joint. One of the first things you need to learn is to distinguish between the molten metal and the molten slag. That and when striking an arc, it’s easier to do if you mimic striking a match instead of tapping straight in! Just a couple hints from a retired certified welder. Now go back and reweld the bottom joint on that chair! Lol

Always enjoy watching your videos. 👍 I think it's unlikely that the collets are proprietary. I imagine production costs would be too expensive for the relatively small numbers that proxxon sells. At a guess, they look like "EOC" or "OZ" series collets. 🙂

This is exactly the test I was looking for! Thanks so much for posting this.

Correction, a 3/8"-16 bolt.

I like your ideas! I've been making some modifications to my 1x42 Kalamazoo sander and found that a long 3/8-20 bolt can be attached to the idler wheel's threaded through hole to make pushing down on the tension spring easier than pushing on the safety housing.

dock them down or deck them down? camphor or chamfered?

Sorry to bother, there is an extra R in your spelling of the word screws in the title.

been looking all over to fix the y-axis nodding problem, thank you. Also I feel that I have to take the whole thing, column and all, off the table and lay it on its side, so the head is snug inside the column block, to do x-axis adjustment. So that it doesn't give me more nodding!

Thank You

Mine seems to jerk randomly at the lowest 5k rpm setting. Can you confirm this with yours if it does the same ?

Expecting Part 3😊😊

So 4.0 is still good) Thanks for the video.

Just bought one two days ago and saw today the “Tool show” and they just happened to mention this video, this is amazing please keep making more of these.

Very well explained thanks

Really cool little setup man, I need to check out those erem pliers. Keep up the great work!

Thank you. Just bought milwaukee. Good tool. Happy that technology is advancing rapidly.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting specs you provided, especially the details on air speed differences. This is a useful blower. Certainly not for the lawn, but I’ve been using for clearing sawdust when working outside, off the sawhorses and tools. Also easy to hold when on a ladder for blowing leaves out of the gutters. I have some of the HO 2.5 batteries. Performance basically same as 3.0 compact. For the blower I’ve been using the XC 6.0 batteries which weren’t tested here. Guess they would perform same as the HO 5.0 did.

great test! do you find that the m12 fuel series motors can utilize the HOs better than brushed? with m18 apparently fuel models can somehow take better advantage of the HOs. non-fuel tools HO doesnt seems to matter vs non HO...or so i've been told. probably not related to the motor but rather the circuitry.

Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice mill

It’s not that I don’t like Haus of Tools selection, but I had to wait nearly 8 weeks to receive a set of PB Swiss screwdrivers.

That is a fantastic video! 2.5 ho is great as it allows the M12 tools to retain their small form factor with almost the same performance as XC packs

Crazy how RUclips works out ! I was working with my Forman today wiring a panel and he brought this light out. Super rad. Just opened the app to do research and this is on my explore page. Great video will be watching all of the videos you put out. Love the detail !

good

This is so awesome!!! After seeing the price on this I am going to have to build my own. Thank you for sharing this.

Thanks for this. I just bought one of these lights after a power outage. Was curious about run times although I have a ton of batteries. I appreciate your effort.

This rover light been out a few years now
