    Upgraded from an older 18v kit. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.

      I had the fein multimaster. It was very smooth and just nice to use, wway Less vibration than any other one I've seen. But one day it broke inside, because to keep vibration down the head is only attached to the motor by very small glass filled plastic arms. I had it maybe 5 years. Looking inside it seems to me this will happen to everyone eventually.
      So I bought a cordless Milwaukee and it is just as good or even better. Very smooth, has a light and definitely cuts quicker. One of Milwaukee's better tools!

    About the decision to go with “Starlock…but with a pin”. I have the Fein that came just before starlock, Festool starlock (reskinned fein supercut) and have owned the Bosch starlock. With the pin models, it is very easy to adjust the blade angle on the fly. With the pinless starlock system, it is a real pain to dial in an angle in a tight spot. You have to keep removing the tool from the tight spot, remove the blade, lock the blade in again, try again, wrong angle, pull the tool out, remove the blade, and lock the blade in again…woof. Makita thought this one through. Rolling back to Fein’s previous locking pin while maintaining the enclosed Starlock interface with the optimized energy transfer is good stuff. The starlock interface wasn’t just about the quick connect function when introduced. It’s also about the ability to increase the applied power and swing arc. I’m not really interested in anymore LXT as I’ve gone all in on XGT. However, this Makita is looking better than my Feins…

    I had this multitool for not even two weeks when something in the pin locking mechanism snapped off and made the tool unusable, i took it apart to see that the part was designed nowhere near as strong as it should have been considering the torque put on the part with the leaver which im guessing is what made mine give out. I sent it to makita to repair and ive been told that so many people have already been having the same problem so makita are having to redesign the part itself. And I can confirm the larger head does get in the way at times unlike others like the feintool that i had been using previously

      Fein invented the Multitool back in the sixties and the Starlock system was an collaboration of Bosch AND Fein. Fein is often overseen, although they are the oldest German tool company and invented for example the first powerdrill ever! As far as I know is the Festool multitool also manufactered by Fein. I don‘t know the Makita multitool yet, but the anti vibration system of the Fein I owned is outstanding!

      That is definitely a valid concern. The solution to that may be to use the longer and overall larger Starlock max blades. I get why they designed it like that. Everything was squished to the business end and then the handle is decoupled from the body. With the cordless Fein/Festool models, you have to hold the tool all the way back at the battery to avoid the vibration.

    Losing the pin was back of my mind through the whole video. I feel like Makita missed the chance to include a second hole or a magnet for storing the pin during blade changes.
    You could test the concept, use hot glue or something else temporary to put a strong magnet somewhere on the tool. New blade change order of operations would be: pull pin, store pin on magnet, change blade, reinsert pin.
    If it works, drill a hole into the plastic body and epoxy a magnet, so it is flush and permanent.

    My favourite tool change system on a Multi-tool is actually on a Ryobi! It uses the classic OIS blades, BUT instead of a bolt that you manually have to screw and unscrew every time, the bottom bolt is attached to a sprung lever which opens up enough gap to change the blade... I.e similar to your new Makita except the bolt is fixed in place so you don't have to take it out every time (and you can't lose it!).
    That's not even the best feature though...
    The entire tool head is also on an adjustable pivot so the blade can be up to 90˚ from the body which makes it super handy to get in tight spots.

Triggers on multi tools are bad. They should have a switch and a variable speed dial like practically everyone else. I hate mine and I'm going to get a different brand one soon.

    Fein used to have the star lock with the pin the problem I had with that system was that the mechanism that held the pin in place would get jammed up with dust to the point that you could not remove the pin. I had to trash a couple of very those style of units because of that issue. I also have a Fein multimaster with the Bosch style of Stardock system that doesn't fully lock the blades anymore. The blade rattles around and barely oscillates. I've been in the flooring trade and renovation/restoration for 35 years and have usedd up at least 5 of these tools in my time. All were Fein corded models. Regardless of which one you go with they are still far and away the best tool for renovation and construction.

I would always say that people with big hands and stronger arms should go for dewalt, smaller hands people would be benefited from the makita’s ergonomic grip design.

    Hi, my name is Chris from the Netherlands. I was a contractor for 6 years and used to work with Festool corded saw's CS70 tabelsaw, jigsaw, TS55 etc. But for all cordless machines I prefer Makita, also because they started as first wit selling machines without battery packs and chargers. So I could buy much more tools and save a lot of space and weight. With 4 18V batteries and two charges I could take almost any task on location without the need for power.
    But now back to the questions of your video. With do viewers prefer.
    Well my choice the FEIN. (The inventor of the multitool) Because I had a FEIN Multimaster for over 20 years and It think they are still the best I bought the 700 cordless version and I can tell you, when you had tested this one you might have a new winner. I love Festool also, but their prices are almost insane! I find the FEIN saw's also have better quality, that last longer as everything else I have tried. Don't know if they sell FEIN in New Seeland, but when they do grab one for a test!

    How much does the replacement pin cost? 99% of the multi-tool?

    As an American, it is mind blowing that you can be arrested for going out of your house. And also that bump mode on nailers is illegal. Government is scary.

    I can’t find even a mention of this tool in the states. Looks like it’s unavailable any place other than a tiny island in the middle of nowhere. Looks like they might be doing a beta test or something. Great place to do it. Small number of users, controlled area, easy to keep an eye on where they are and how they’re working out.

    Jess makes a mean burger! I'm hungry now. I'm glad to see the improvements with the Mak tool but I can't help thinking, "what about us 18v users?" Didn't Fein invent the multitool? They seem to have let everyone pass them.

    GAHDANG. I didn't know it, but apparently I came here for the burgers. Those things looked DELICIOUS!!!! I'm starving now.

    Those burgers looked fantastic.
    I'm just curious, since my experience is with a Dremel multitool originally that had the annoying bolt for the blade retention, and now these days with a DeWalt cordless, which has a simple lever that allows you to quickly change the "normal" style blades in like two seconds but I don't think it will accept a starlock blade, so is there a really good reason to use starlock? Are the blades cheaper, or better or what?

    That multitool blade that lasted 2 whole renovations is almost as incredible as those burgers looked!
