@@Coupleatools Thanks. Just got my US version yesterday. Cardboard box. No case. It could really use one since it doesn’t go back in the box right with a cutting wheel installed and the tiny adapter piece for wheels with a larger inner diameter is going to get lost without a better place to keep it.
@@Coupleatools Well, they now sell it with a PowerStack battery in a “DCS438E1” bundle but, you called it: it includes a bag instead of a case. North America only had “DCS438B” (bare tool) when I got mine a couple months ago. The PowerStack is so well suited that I should probably go ahead and get one of those but then I may as well have waited. I see they offer a “DCS438E2T-GB” for Great Britain with a TSTACK case so I assume yours is that or one of the other regional E2T variants. I don’t have any other TSTACK stuff and my custom DCF899 case worked so well that I’m probably just going to make my own for this. I actually used the DCS438B to cut a case from a broken Harbor Freight Chicago Electric 12v roadside (corded) impact wrench to make my DCF899 case. It actually fit my Craftsman CMCF940 even better which isn’t too surprising since it’s a rebadged DCF899 with a different battery. I obviously didn’t need both impacts so I ended up giving that case to a friend with the CMCF940. Maybe this time I’ll fire up the 3D printers. It seems to me that there should already be a community effort to 3D print tool-specific inserts for some affordable generic case but I haven’t found one.
@@emmettturner9452 As most bodies & kits here either come in TStack or Tough System, there’s generally no need for 3D printing inserts. However, there are plenty foam companies out there that make custom inserts such a Kaizen Inserts which maybe of use to you. Check them out
I like the hard case now I’m an end of a spending some of my time trying to modify one of my spare cases 😂
Hard case is standard on Euro models
Link where it was purchased?

Did yours include a case?
Most DeWalt kits in the EU are either sold with TStak or ToughSystem case as standard. US is generally a bag or nothing at all

Entonces, corta aluminio? 😯
With a metal blade, yes. The saw will cut anything with the correct blade
I like my ridgid.
Great to hear it 👍🏻
