We all know Sam is a cracking builder, turns out he's a pretty natural host for his first shot too
You really can't go wrong with Makita. I've been using their tools for over 45 years.
Same. Unlike Milwaukee
Key to these tools regardless of brand is the blade good blade on them makes all the difference.
I have the 18V DCE090. I’m a landscaper, it is a great tool. You don’t have to worry about battling with a 2 stroke engine, it is so lightweight, quiet, it feels like a very safe tool to use. The batteries will run out after only a few cuts but if you have the 18v system already, then just be sure to have additional batteries and a charger on site.
I’ve had one of these since may 2021. Nice tool for certain jobs but doesn’t replace a petrol saw
I fully agree! I think for a roofer cutting tiles its perfect!
Thank you. A great little presentation. I'm glad it's brushless. I have mostly brushed tools and they gobble up battery like nobody's business. I still think this tool went through battery power a bit on the fast side. But I'm tempted, even though I'd rarely use it!
You are not wrong Makita is the Best and I love Makitas I have most of them and I have first cordless Makita drill and it's still works but the battery not charging at the moment it's old more than 20 years and I can prove it to anyone I bought it in 1998 it cost me £498.98 at that time 👍
The thing i like about battery tools you can just pick them up and go no messing about trying to start them or you get them going and then it stops again.
I have one , get one its a game changer and for portability buy the makita water pressure container so no hose pipe needed to minimise dust , it eats the batteries and as advised in the video have a good few to hand i recommend 5 amp or 6 amp models for best results but 4 will do fine
If ever a tool was an advertisement for a DIYer to finally get a proper pair of workman's safety boots, this is the tool 🙂 Looks very effective
Makita fan here 🙋
makita all the way! great tool to have, use it over my stihl 99% of the time.. Best thing i did tho was buy the battery dewalt saw diamond blade for it. Cuts nicer, thinner, last longer on batteries too
Thanks, looks like a great bit of kit if you're on the system already, or making a change !
I'll stick with my Milwaukee M18 FCOS230 (Fuel Cut Off Saw 230mm).
As a bricklayer, my partner, and apprentice, both have the Makita version. Both recognize that my 12 ah, 18v battery packs more grunt. 😊
Had one of these but dewalt and slightly smaller. It was absolutely shit hot, my favourite tool. You have to have at 3 batteries and ideally 2 chargers. But they're so convient. Just cut blocks with a bolster and save battery for stone.
I preferred the dewalt one over the makita, both very handy tho
Awesome. Even managed to cut through your shoe!
Good tool. I use another brand of cordless here in America, which will remain nameless, and I have several tools that will take as much from a battery as it will give. one in particular is my sds-plus hammer drill. I had 1" x 12" masonry bit on it drilling through hard polymer modified cement and the load is so great the battery would get real hot. That's very detrimental to the battery longevity. If you use your battery tools for a trade it might not matter so much with a lot of battery turnover, but for other people you can directly control battery life by paying attention to tool load and battery heat. You can switch batteries out as they get warm to spread out the wear. as a note even my corded hammer drill did not have a much better time going through that stuff
I always build up from small, 6mm or 1/4", sometimes smaller if substrate is liable to shatter like our 100-year old London sewer bricks.
@@cuebj a difficult job indeed! Thanks for replying.
Add a couple of 6amp batteries for longer cutting power
Found myself having a look at these and safe to say after seeing one being used it’s a must have. I use makita products already but I can’t be bothered battling with 2 stroke one minute it starts next it doesn’t. Need reliable tools in the trade.
i’ve had the stihl 9” cordless for a couple of years now so much easier to use my only issue is it hasn’t got the battery cover like the makita and dewalt
I've had the DeWalt for about 5 years, 9 time's out of ten I'm using that the petrol hilti stays in the van
With you on this Sam, great pice of kit
looks awesome
Agree it is a quality tool and does this job very well. I use 4 different brands for screwing and actually each of them have specific qualities for the different repetative tasks. Makita for me is the medium strength, great for light drilling and fits even a 1mm drill and 2nd in screwing. Only down point so far is the short life span of the batteries however you can replace them quite cheaply. The Milwaukee is the beast, best for fast drilling 5mm or larger and ony for heavy screwing like 6mm * 120mm or larger. The bosch easy drill is light in the hand and super stable slow drive is the best screwer for upto 6mm*90mm. I have a different impact screwdriver and the test on skillbuilder proved that for the 120mm screws in dry oak the Walt was the best and Milwaukee great as well and the Makita just good enough. So Makita is very good alround however every job might need the tool with the specific qaulities of that tool to say which one is the best.
I have one and rate it, even better with 6ah batteries. Doesn't matter how much water suppression you use you still need to wear a mask. Silicosis is a killer
Was that last cut on sheet metal? If so I didn't know them discs worked on just metal, I know that they will do the odd reinforcing bar.
Damn that looks fun
Makita are great tools ( I have many of their products ) but their replacement parts are ridiculously priced ! Also the easy availability of replacement parts needs to be addressed ( the same with Dewalt )
Makita for life😂I have the chainsaw but if you got access to power for low level no point
Anyone know please if other brands do similar water-fed tools for cutting stone and likes? cordless or corded even
Makita is the best.
Yes mate!
Best tools for diyers 😂
Great review Sam. What’s next on your makita list?😲
Thanks Dan. Im open to suggestions for any power tools! l love them all!!
@@SJWardBuilders winter is coming, what about the makita microwave.. warm some soup up. 😋
@@Ultimate-roofing-square.I could make a space for it in my truck, if things go quiet we can double as a mobile soup kitchen! Sam's splendid soups
Sounds like the Makita fan boys are having a love in! 💙🖤🥰😅
I'm waiting for Makita to release the 40V version of this saw.
I believe the 40V version is available now in the UK… going for just under 1k. Absolute beast! 😅
@@burwoodbuild That's a 14"/350mm saw as far as I know. I'm waiting for the 9"/230mm 40V version.
@@TheToolnut Yeah, was 80V (twin 40V) MAX XGT saw and was similar size to my Stihl saw. The one you’ve mentioned sounds more manageable… assuming it’s a single 40V MAX XGT?
Rotate batteries all day long? Will the batteries like that. They are aswell probably worth more than the tool.
Could you cut through a single leaf brick wall with this? I know the max cut depth states 88mm but it looks as though it would get through a brick. I've been looking at this for things like garage conversions and installing windows.
You could but it would leave a slight nib at the back of the cut like a corded nine inch cutter does. However it is then very easy to take down the wall once the first couple of bricks are removed with a hammer and chisel/ bolster.
With the water hose needing to be attached it makes the cordless cutter obsolete, might as well have corded
You don't have to use water for dust suppresion and you can get a pump up spray bottle that will last for ages. You need only a tiny amount of water.
It's really light... Then puts the batteries in 😂 still good though
Thanks for the informative vid. What is the blade you are running on it? I would ideally want to be able to also cut rebar lintels.
Can an angle grinder blade be run in the DCE090?
👍👍👍
How can i buy that Makita wall plaque.
I can make you one!
@@SJWardBuilders +1. I wouldn't mind one. I'm struggling to get those red Makita gloves. Not sure they make them now.
I'm just curious. Are the people in the UK taught to say "bat-tree"?
Good point. We will send all our builders away for elocution lessons. There is no worse English than that spoken by the natives.
All Makita cordless tools are toys 😂
Ouch!
How much does it cost to charge a battery per Ah?
Depends on the nominal V of the battery and efficiency of the charger. Multiply the V by the Ah "Ivy Watts" and divide by 1,000 to get UK billing units *if everything is perfect*. It isn't, so add a bit for safety. 1:42 he's using 5Ah batteries @ 18V so one would take 5 * 18 = 90 / 1,000 = 0.09, about a tenth of a unit. I pay about 30p per kWh, so about 3p per charge, or 6p for 2 batteries. Elsewhere he says he used 6 batteries for something, so 20p ish? It sounds about right. If you were using a corded 1kW (1,000W) model and spent 3 minutes cutting through something huge, you'd have used a twentieth of a unit of electricity - 1.5p
Thank you. 110v every time unless you are using someone else's power.@@trs4u
Always charge my batteries off the customers power
@@I-am-not-a-number Oh yeah derp - I only do DIY, never even seen a 110V powertool except (now I know) when we've had someone in to do major work on the house. ... reads ... so that's why they bring a transformer! I thought it was just for isolation... every day's a learning day. The V and Ah in the battery charging answer is good no matter what your power supply. You'd have to go looking for the A on a corded tool - for those, the power in W is all you need to know. A 1,000W power tool will spend money at the same rate whether it's a 110V or 230V model.
@@m2dat791 It's a tiny amount of energy - one of these batteries is about a hot cup of tea. I was going to joke Makita should make a kettle, searched, and see Screwfix has one. If the customer has an 'agile' tariff, you could be paying them!
i still don't get why use use battery powered instead of a power cord? is it that more convenient to spend money on batteries and have to keep charging them instead of buying a extension cord? it makes no rational sense, but i guess we live in irrational times. At least they could sell you a 36v power adapter so you can choose to cut on battery or use the power adapter plugged in.
We've had to put in coping stones on a roof and you're up on scaffolding, sure we had a petrol husqvana, but for smaller and more delicate cuts. A cordless with a couple of charged batteries would have made the job for us much easier.
Portability and convenience are two reasons for a start. Cordless for on site and corded for the W/S.
Power cords trailing around on site provide more risk to workers if they get damaged and batteries are an improvement from lugging a 110v transformer around! 😮💨
@@burwoodbuild Absolutely Sir, lugging around a transformer is a pain plus as someone who does predominantly private residential work I can't run the risk of a client tripping over one of my cords. There are also children and pets to consider.
If your having to charge batteries why not just use a plug in cutter then you have hundreds of cuts, just a thought.
Running an extension cord isn't good if you are on a roof or scaffold!

@SJWardBuilders if you are running water to it then a cable is no worse
@@mc1703 True but I wouldn't think about running a hose up on a roof that isn't fully water tight!
Not good for a block paved driveway.
Battery power is the future… unfortunately touching anything Makita brings me out in a nasty rash! 💛🖤
Our Milwaukee MX fuel 350 saw will do that post in one pass 😌😉🧱👍🏽

Yes I've heard that is an awesome tool but for those of us on the Makita platform it would cost a lot to buy the tool, batteries and charger!
