Milwaukee’s NPS19 new tool media event is just one day away. Tomorrow, Thursday, 6/6/19, Milwaukee will be showing off many of the new tools they have been working on, including any new cordless power tools innovations and updates, power tool accessories, tool storage products, and even hand tools.
In the past, we’ve thought long and hard about we predicted we would see, and now is that time once again.

One line keeps ringing in memory. A few years ago, between NPS15 and NPS16, a group of Milwaukee PR and product associates traveled to some parts of the country to introduce their new cordless nailers. At that time, they said that Milwaukee will be hitting carpentry and remodeling tool markets hard. And they have, with new brushless jig saws, a backpack vacuum, cordless miter saws, a cordless table saw, and a number of other handy tools.
But there are still holes in Milwaukee’s M18 cordless power tool lineup.
What about an M18 cordless air compressor?
Are the Gen-2 cordless nailers ready yet? Will Milwaukee be coming out with a larger nailer, such as a framer? Or going smaller, such as with a 23 gauge pin nailer?
We’ve started to see new Imperial Blades oscillating multi-tool accessories. Now’s a good time for an M18 Fuel oscillating multi-tool, maybe even an M12 Fuel model, of course supported by new Milwaukee oscillating multi-tool blades and accessories. Or, maybe they’ll be supported by Imperial Blade accessories. Either way, I expect to see both.
What about a new M18 Fuel large-size miter saw? They have a 10″ and a 7-1/4″. That larger saw might be due for an update, or maybe we’ll see a new 12″ size?
Advertisement
I don’t quite think we’ll see a 10″ table saw, however. Unless… Milwaukee announces a new battery system update where you can harness the capabilities of 2 or more Li-ion battery packs.
Milwaukee very much believes in their “everything fits” philosophy. Their High Output battery packs can deliver a great amount of energy to very demanding and power-hungry cordless power tools. But how do you get them to deliver even more? You pair them up.
It’s possible that Milwaukee will finally announce a battery-multiplier system and sub-category of tools. The 8-1/4″ table saw runs effortlessly on a High Output battery. But how would a 10″ table saw perform? Or a 12″ miter saw?
I’m not convinced about a multi-battery sub-system within the Milwaukee M18 cordless power tool lineup. Even if it’s something they do come out with, it makes sense that the High Output batteries came first. The potential behind multi-battery tools would allow for the highest tier of performance, but also runtime.
Single-battery vacuums work alright. But what if you want a fully-featured dust collector? Maybe even one that could power cordless tools that are attached for automatic activation?
For the past few years, we have seen progressions in Milwaukee M18 cordless power tool battery technology. What are we in for this year?
Although many users have grown their cordless power tool collections, what about that air compressor they like to use? The dust vac? Air cleaner? Hammer drill? Halogen lighting? Maybe this is the year we see a Milwaukee M18 battery-equipped portable power source. Ooh, and in a Packout rolling tool box?
There’s space for a new line of Milwaukee cordless sanders. Larger battery packs aren’t quite well-matched to smaller sanders, but the same can’t be said about wall and ceiling prep tools.
Readers have been asking for an M12 Fuel Surge impulse driver. Honestly, I’m 50:50 on this. I’m not convinced that it’s something Milwaukee will seek to bring to market.
We could potentially see a Milwaukee cordless metal-cutting chop saw or multi-material saw, perhaps similar to Makita’s 18V X2 abrasive saw, or at least I don’t see why not.
Maybe a cordless router? A few years ago, Milwaukee said that they would enter and grow product categories that made sense for them, and where they could bring improvement. I don’t remember the context, but it seemed their corded routers fit the “we’re not interested in me-too” category. However, times have changed, and users want a cordless router. A cordless router table with built-in motor would be nice, but I don’t think that’s very likely.
A cordless track saw would be nice, but how would they take on market giants, such as Festool?
What do you predict we’ll see?
We’ll likely be providing some immediate coverage through Instagram and our other social channels. Following the tag #NPS19 will show you EVERYONE’s coverage, which might be a good idea. We’ll be focused on information-gathering and hands-on time, but will try to share teasers of the most impactful new tool releases.

Ben Culp
My own wish list would be the following in this order. A M18 track saw, a power station, and a cordless trim router
SurvivalSpec
That power station is truly what I want to see announced. There is a patent plan floating around for it.
BobM
Wholeheartedly agree on the tracksaw and router.
Joseph
I would pre order the tracksaw. I’m super invested into Milwaukee and as much as I want to get a festool tracksaw just for the unity of the tool lineup I would buy it.
Peter Fox
A track saw and router top my brothers and my list.
If they do release a track saw I hope that they are smart enough to have an ingenious way to adapt it to other manufacturers tracks. Being the last of the big 4 cordless brands in north america without one in their lineup it would probably boost sales if they had compatibility with existing tracks that one might have purchased with a corded saw.
Paul Peltier
I want to see a M18 left blade circular sidewinder in 7-1/4″ and a track saw. That’s honestly got me staying on the fence between dewalt and milwaukee. I’m waiting to jump into one platform or the other based on this.
Brian A
I just want the packout flat dolly promised at NPS 2018….
Axeman
I second that!
Jason
I third that.
Jason B
I third that.
Dan M
I fourth that!
Josh W
I fifth that!
Dan
For the automotive side – M12 or M18 heat induction tool.
I think it’s time for woodworking tools.
Packout needs something integrated into it… vac, radio, power station, drawers.
Since they just put out new batteries I’m guessing another year or more before they give us multi battery tools. Either that or wireless charging first so we keep buying more batteries than tools.
KMR
I don’t think battery powered heat induction tools are ever going to be technically feasible. They just require way too much current to generate the necessary wattage, given the voltage of the batteries.
Kizzle
Holy crap. I didn’t know how bad I wanted a cordless induction tool until you mentioned it. Please tell me it’s feasible. I want it so bad.
Dan
I know there is a 12V mini-ductor made to clamp onto a car battery. I’m not sure how well it works, but with what theses tool manufacturers keep doing with their batteries I’m sure we aren’t that far from this being possible. They already removed the need for pneumatic tools, and now they are taking on hydraulic tools. Granted it takes a lot of electricity to make heat, but I have a feeling we’ll be moving past heated clothing in the near future. Here’s to hoping anyway.
Daniel
Seems possible, though likely to be under-powered. Keep in mind in general terms a car battery is in the 45ah range @12v. Even a 12AH 18v pack would be left in the dust. It would have less than half the watt-hours on tap than the alternative.
It would likely end up like their 18v heat gun: pretty neat, useful for a couple of small scale tasks, but underpowered and it would chew through batteries like crazy.
Nathan
I could see using s special LI-FE- sort of bank cell not a slap on tool battery. Sort of like that Dewalt portable welder. Minimal capability on battery – but still useable for short time. Or plug in and run on cord.
Wags
I would like to see a selection of laser line levels.
PETE
That would be super cool! Because we know that if dewalt can make decent lasers- than milwaukees would be way better!
Corey Moore
On what basis?
PETE
The dewalt DW089LG isn’t serviceable at all, So if something inside gets out of whack inside it’s garbage. I wish i would have known that before buying it- i would have likely ended up with a bosch or a hilti.
OhioHead
DeWalt bought a laser company 15 years + years ago to get the technology to repackage. Does Empire have this capability? Who could be acquired by TTI to assist there brands w/ this effort?
Your post makes a lot sense!
Alvin Lawson
I just bought the fan love it
JD
Me too
Greg
You’ll see a framing nailer, new packoit radio, hydrolic pump, among other things
Nathan
hydraulic pump? You mean as in tank of hydraulic fluid – and lines for 3000 or so PSI.
for what purpose? why a cordless hydraulic pump.
now if they update that fluid sump pump they make – I could see that but I don’t know why really.
PETE
They already make a hydraulic pump- https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/Power-Tools/Electrical-Installation/Pumps/2774-20
Evadman
Woah, that is awesome. I would love one if it wasn’t $4.7k. That cost and one of the benefits (wireless remote) implies that the primary use case is for crimping electrical connectors. I would want it for automotive use, like frame straightening, dent removal and such.
red92s
There are other options from 3rd parties that run on the M18 battery platform:
https://www.ohiopowertool.com/p-19843-power-team-m18-cordless-single-acting-hydraulic-pump-pb102-1.aspx
Nathan
well I’ll be dipped.
I mean it’s a great idea but something I would have thought would come form like a ridgid pro or speciality company.
huh.
fred
It would appear to be targeted for Electric Utility use – rather than plumbing. Milwaukee has been releasing tools aimed at both markets.
Dan
I would like to see a unistrut shear only 1:company I have seen makes it in a battery form
Tee
New Die Grinder with a 29xx model number.
Fuel M18 finger sander. (Belt sander)
Packout drawer. (That’s more of a wish than a prediction)
New cordless fan. Bigger.
Nathan
lol more development of the red lithium line – maybe things like distance measures and laser levels. Sort of expect to see that transition.
a updated mid torque torque wrench maybe. More one key product integration.
I do sort of hope they make a power station – I mean I know why dewalt did it – it makes sense when you start off with a 60V (54V) battery base voltage – to make up 110V AC line power. So milwaukee could do a relatively easy version of that too it just has to have more transformer coil to make up the volts. minor really.
I half expect to see more OPE – and a later related death of the Echo 58V line
And I do expect them to make a 10inch table saw and beat dewalt to market with one. Why – just because.
XRH07
Dewalt’s power station is 18v x4. It can’t be in Flexvolt mode otherwise it can’t function as a charger (balance) or work with 20v Max batteries.
Nathan
To supply power I believe it either has to have 1 flexvolt battery and 3 20V batteries, or it has to have 2 or more flexvolt batteries. something like that but it will not supply power without one flexvolt battery attached. Unless they changed it.
If using as 1 flexvolt and 3 20V – it stops when the flexvolt battery is drained – regardless of the state of the 3 other 20V batteries.
If using 2 flexvolts and 2 20’s – again it stops as soon as either flexvolt battery is drained. For best results I believe it wants 4 flexvolt batteries of same capacity base.
To charge batteries I believe the circuits don’t care which battery type is plugged in. It monitors them individually.
Corey Moore
Doesn’t need any flexvolt battery. It’s 18v across the board.
Nathan
I sit corrected – looking it up on the site and the user manual does allow for it to provide AC power with 4 20V batteries. I’ve always seen it used with flexvolt batteries.
Ryan
The DCB1800 works with any combination of 20v batteries. However, it’s only as powerful as it’s weakest link.
Doug
Two woodworking tools which don’t exist in cordless fashion, to my knowledge: 1/2” collet router, and 6” random orbital sander. Hoping to see at least one of these two announced.
Nathan
Good Calls – nobody else has one yet. They do already make that 7 inch fuel cordless polisher but it’s not Random Orbit
Craig
I’d like to see those as well. Even a 5″ random orbit would be fine with me
Don
But there is a 5” random orbital already. 2648-20
Craig
Yes they do sorry I meant M12 RO sander. I love the M12 system for home use and anything i can lose a cord on is great with kids running around everywhere tripping on extension cords.
I have 18v Makita’s and their RO is just fine but my batteries are on their last leg and I’ve been dragging my feet on new ones. A 1/2″ cordless router may be enough to make me switch to Milwaukee M18 when time comes.
Dain
I want a top handle pro chainsaw. Been loving their chainsaw all year. A top handle version will seriously compete with Stihl and Husky.
Nathan
dewalt and milwaukee already make those. both have a cordless 18V/20V random orbit.
milwaukee had one out first if I recall.
Rory
Makita has had a 5″ sander for about 5 years and it still out performs the Milwaukee and DeWalt.
JT
There used to be a porter cable cordless router that accepted 1/2 collet. You can read the reviews on Amazon, I believe it was released in early 2000s. If you search online, you can that people modified the battery to use DeWalt battery.
I’m hoping Milwaukee comes out with a Fuel version
Nathan K
Fingers crossed this will be the year for a M18 framing nailer and router. These have been the most requested tools at NPS for years now.
Mike
Multi charger with the upgraded version of rapid charging please
James C
Stuart, why don’t you think we’ll see an m12 surge-like driver? I’d love to see that as well as more compact m12 tools in general.
PETE
Toolboss44 on IG posted about a m12 surge driver today- idk if it’s true or not lol.
Kizzle
Looks fake. Like a bad Photoshop.
Noah
They’ve deleted it.
Kizzle
Hmmm. Wonder if that lends credence to it being real? Maybe Milwaukee threatened that he take it down?
PETE
Sure enough- on milwaukees IG story- m12 surge!
Chris
I’m really hoping for a 1/2” drive socket set. Or maybe even a super socket set with 3 drive sizes, 3 ratchets one of each drive size, shallow and deep sockets in SAE and metric of each drive size, at least 1 x 6” extension for each drive size, (6” and 3” for each would be nice), universal joints for each drive size, and a nice blow molded case with removeable tray.
I highly doubt a super socket set will come out, but a 1/2 drive set is more likely.
I would also like to see a m12 fuel rotary tool, with a full line of Milwaukee accessories, to compete with dremel and their crazy prices for attachments and accessories.
Hopefully we see the m12 chainsaw doresoom found in the Milwaukee patents ?
Big Richard
I second the hackzall style chainsaw you are referring to, but I would hope it is M18 Fuel, not M12. It is really quite unnecessary, but I’d want it.
Kizzle
A rotary tool that takes m12 batteries would be too big. I have the non fuel version and it is too large to comfortably use for long projects. Dremel at least makes some smaller sized cordless ones. Not as much power, but for small jobs the size is more appreciated than the power.
Chris
I guess, but I think it would outweigh the need to have a cord.
Mike
If milwaukee stays on the we can do everything with 18v platform they are going to whither away and die, 18v is fine for smaller tools but when going with larger tools that demand more power they just don’t cut the cake, they better start using at least two battery system’s or people are going to start switching, milwaukee has already hit their peek and they starting on their downfall
JT
I doubt it. Plenty of tools for Milwaukee to make that they haven’t had time yet.
DeWalt framing nailer.
DeWalt electrical wire stapler.
DeWalt paint sprayer.
DeWalt power station (technically 4 batteries).
Porter Cable made a full size router.
Ryobi 18v lawnmower.
Etc.
Adam
Not that Milwaukee released a Fuel Super Sawzall & new Fuel circular that match corded performance or anything. Many keep saying they have reached some limit, and yet they keep releasing more powerful tools based off of M18.
The only tool I never imagine having AC power is a vacuum or dust extractor, at least one that I would want swap a corded model for, but Im sure I’ll be wrong in a year or 2.
tcmault
I just want a lawnmower.
Nathan
I sort of expect to see an X2 lawn mower come out. Mostly because they are pushing into OPE and their trimmers and the like compete fairly well.
red92s
Amen.
Frank D
I’m waiting on wave two of packout …
I have adopted the large tote as my primary tool bag, but it struggles to hold as much as my previous bag. Can’t stand the internal pocket side. Just not working out for me.
Love the parts organizers, once they are custom upgraded (Benjamen knows 😉 )
The rest of the ‘tainers … they’re still just dumb boxes to me. Either they’re a hot mess inside, or you fill them with foam and very few tools.
Chris
Can you elaborate on the custom parts organizers?
Are you referring to this
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-10-Compartment-Red-Deep-Pro-Small-Parts-Organizer-225046/205847797
and this
https://14cyiuhvcgv.com/3d-printing-design-process-packout-mounting-bracket-case-study/%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E
In my head, this seems like a cheap alternative to this
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-PACKOUT-11-Compartment-Small-Parts-Organizer-48-22-8430/303005741?MERCH=REC-_-PIPHorizontal2_rr-_-205847797-_-303005741-_-N
You could epoxy the 3D printed parts and just have them on top of a stack.
I don’t know how well the lid would stand up, but I think it could work.
I’ll probably start this tonight and see what I come up with (It’s supposed to have thunderstorms for the next 5 days 🙂 ).
Ryan
I’d like to see a wall rack system for the packout
Stuart
Lots more are coming. LOTS. No details yet, only a couple of winks, nods, and smiles.
SurvivalSpec
New Packout products and a possible Portable Power Station would be nice
OldDominionDIYer
I don’t know what Milwaukee will be introducing at this years NPS19 but my wish list is as follows;
M18 Framing nailer
Packout Charging station
Packout 2 drawer unit
M18 router
Nice to have;
Packout rolling base shop vac
Packout Radio
Packout customizable inserts for arranging multiple bare tools in the large and rolling boxes
Still waiting for the much delayed:
Packout wall mount
Packout rolling base
In the OPE world I wish they would make the following:
a lawn mower (M18 platform but probably tandem batteries)
I know they’re busy and I recognize each piece needs to meet some business case but man am I impatient!
Axeman
I wholeheartedly agree!
Dcl
I pretty much wish every year and it never comes true, but a Fuel OMT with a true quick change mechanism that doesn’t require me to unscrew anything. It’s the tool I use more than any other, and I’m getting pretty fed up with their terrible OMT that has endured for years and years. 3 generations of other Fuel tools later, and they still have this lame POS.
Brian A
It only took 5+ years for the Fuel jigsaw. I am pretty sure we will get the M18 Fuel OMT this year, slight chance M12 Fuel also, but the M12 might be a surprise release later in the year because they never show everything at NPS
MarylandUSA
You’ll gey your Fuel oscillating multitool. I know this because I just ordered the old one (the 2626). I hedged my bet by buying it used: $90, including an XC5.0 battery and an M18/M12 (rapid?) charger.
RKA
Right there with you, but I gave up waiting and ordered the Fein 18v last month (which probably increases your odds dramatically)! It sure would have been nice if I could just stick with M18 though.
Stephen
I would like to see an M12 Fuel oscillating multi-tool (OMT). I happened to be browsing OMTs the other day and noticed the current M12 OMT is quite old.
Noah
Yeah that’s overdue for a refresh, and it needs a light!
Kodi Kreci
I would love to see a 71/2″ worm drive saw. Right-handed!!
Altan
I just noticed most of the guys here are unknown for me, as I am not interested in Milwaukee tools I don’t read the related posts also.
Brian A
First time reader, long time poster?
Bryan Carter
I’m moving my lawn care business to battery powered equipment, with the exception of my 48″ walk-behind mower. I want a dual battery push mower to go with my other battery powered lawn stuff.
Adam
*Fuel 18″ fan (hopefully Packout compatible & OneKey)
*Gen2 M18 surge
*USB battery walkie talkies
*Cultivator attachment
*1/2 gal sprayer
Dreams:
* Update the search light to at least be on par with Ryobi (2.5x brighter for almost half the price)
*USB rapid charging, hopefully USB-C change-over for m12 charger (not worth a hoot really with USB 2 micro).
*Packout Chainsaw case, Hedge trimmer PO body update, M12/M18 speaker PO update
*Pole pruner attachment, or ideally M12 based and configurable in different lengths
*Robot lawnmower like Husqvarna
*jawhorse like PO mount, just thought of that. Or other setups, like a router station, if they had a router
*Paint sprayer, or get another company to use your battery. On that, I’d like to just see them partnering with other companies to use their battery form factors.
Adam
1 or 2 gal sprayer (not 1/2)
Nathan
I was about to ask. YOu know there is a company that makes a 2 and 4 or 5 gallon sprayer out there that uses the makita 18V battery (it’s either theirs or hitachi – not red or blue or yellow)
I saw it because I was looking for a new sprayer and thought – that’s a hell of an idea – if it was just more universal. I mean I’m invested in dewalt batteries so I would want that – but same goes for other versions too. why not make it to use either company’s battery system.
fred
I was never quite sure what the pros and cons were for a battery powered sprayer versus one that relies on a hand pump to pressurize a tank. Certainly a battery powered fogger (I believe Ryobi sells one) might have an advantage over a corded one. Meanwhile – back at the ranch so to speak – my Solo backpack sprayer and various (for different chemicals) hand-pump sprayers seem to work fine with a little TLC. I do see that Solo is selling some 12V (gel battery) backpack sprayers and Chapin offers a 24V model.
RKA
For spot treating weeds, you don’t need it. But I do like using the Ryobi cordless sprayer for treating my perimeter with pesticides. 3 gallons and I’m done in 30 minutes including mixing 2 batches and cleaning the sprayer when I’m done. No pausing to pressurize the tank.
Nathan
it’s more of a nice to have really. I use a 2 gallon pumper now – and it’ holds enough to go around my house well for insecticide – and doesn’t quite hold enough to weed spot spray my yard. Either way with a battery pump motor it would have a consistent spray rate and run a bit faster.
maybe less useful on the spot spray side – very useful on the coating the house side. I would however only want it in 4-5 gallon backpack form.
JT
A paint sprayer would be amazing! Even a small one similar to the DeWalt battery powered one.
Tots
How about brighter lights on their tools, like the Dewalt hammer drills!
JT
Wishlist is framing nailer similar to the DeWalt or Hitachi.
The 120v power station similar to DeWalt, but have it be pack out compatible. A pure sine wave inverter is a must. Ideally a secondary DC input so we can use it with solar (so you can use a MPPT charge controller with solar to charge the batteries during extended blackouts).
A track saw would be nice.
A wire stapler similar to the one DeWalt just released would be nice too
Aaron
My rep says 2 framing nailers, 18ga rework, M18 router, possibly m12 router, track saw, worm drive.
I’d love to see:
m12 23ga and 18ga
Packout rolling chest with drawers so I don’t have to take apart my stack every time
Heated vest for women that puts the battery somewhere other than in my wife’s kidney (seriously they got it perfect in the men’s vest and blew it so bad on the women’s)
At this point almost anything that you can do with a compact M18 should be possible in m12 fuel and i want to see some of it happen. Mostly I want the tiny trim nailers.
And everything 75% off
ToolNut
If I were a betting man, I’d say the following releases are a sure-bet.
– 15ah battery (M18)
– Update to 21700 cell batteries (on the M12 XC packs)
– Multi-Port simultaneous fast charger
– A whole lot of new pack-out case options (including a Pack-Out radio)
– New lighting options
– Much less likely to happen, but options I’d love to see would be:
– 7-1/4″ Blade left circular saw
– Track saw
– 12″ Masonry Saw (most likely would need to be a dual-battery design)
Chris
Mowers
Jordan Peixoto
I would like to see a m12 fuel bandsaw capable of cutting 2″ conduit
Jp
I need an m18 brush cutter attachment for the ope multi function thing I purchased. Updated m18 2-gal vac would be great. I can’t buy the backpack one, it costs too much.
Bill
Looks like everyone wants what Dewalt already has.
Edwin
Lower prices on batteries!!
And a WINCH!!
James
I have many milwaulkee tools. How about some fun. I would love a boat trilling motor
James
Trolling lol
Nathan
joking aside I sort of am surprised some company partnership hasn’t already happened.
X2 battery setup (any company’s battery) – trolling motor would run well and be easy to use.
There’s a guy on instructables or some page like it – that 3d printed a propeller to run on a drill. using a cordless drill he then goes out on a canoe.
Christos X
As an electrician, I want some electrical specific stuff. An M12 powered “Roto-Strip” style MC cable stripper, and an M12 Romex Stapler would be good starts.
James
Trolling lol
Lynyrd
How about some Power and Hand Tools Made In The USA? TTI Promised this over a year ago that they would be looking for opportunities to begin offering tools with a USA Origin…
andy
The west coast would like a framing saw (blade left)
I’d love a router and a better 10″ miter saw. Current one is weak and has rail issues.
Robert
Router, tracksaw, 10″ tablesaw, large wet/dry vac, 12″ miter saw, M12 laser levels, better mud mixer, winch, new lights, power station, fan cooled chargers, new blower, PO radio, PO drawer box, trim compressor, m12 pin nailer, framing/roofing nailer, M12 inline screw driver, M12 quadcopter, concrete saw, tile saw, jack hammer, 10 ton jack, mini DC mig welder, drywall sander, spray gun, Blade Left 7.25 circ saw, impact wrench with interchangeable anvil sizes, coffee maker, microwave, M12 traffic directing hand lights, pressure washer, scooter, M12 radios, M12 intercom system, plate jointer, concrete vibrator, M12 hot glue gun, nibblers, and an M12 lightsaber.
Mickey C.
YES , ALL NEED A M-18 ROUTER
AND A M-18 ROOF COIL GUN …
Let’s go R&D dept.
MILWAUKEE is on top , so let’s stay on TOP?
Perry
If they come out with a capable 18v framing nailer, that might pull me out of makitas’ grasp. Makita doesn’t make a cordleaa framing nailer or table saw, and if Milwaukee made both, I might just change platforms for the convenience
SAMUEL
Need a versa clutch drill for screwing steel. Please.
Frank D
It is Thursday, lunch time.
Is anybody else a tiny bit hungry for news?
😉
wink wink
Nathan K
Looks like they have 2 framing nailers, a router and a M12 surge impact coming out this year. Can’t wait for these. Also a improved brad nailer, will hold judgement if a replacement of my 1st gen is warranted.
Ian M
I have seen videos of the following items on my Facebook news feed – Pack out radio and framing nailer. Looking forward to the toolguyd write up
Frank D
I have ventured away from toolguyd to twitter and instagram, and seen a good number of new products, but won’t spoil things for Stuart … he may be having technical difficulties …
Adam
So far I’ve seen a trim router, M12 Surge impact, 12″ miter saw, Packout radio, 2nd gen 18ga brad nailer, framing nailers, and a concrete saw.
Chris
Basically we copied most of Dewalts newest offerings symposium lol
Frank D
Just heard, related to packout, some of their new products may only be coming out next fall or winter?!?! Seriously?!
… and I already spotted some shortcomings on the new kit they showed …
Way to disappoint MW!
Vlad
-cutoff/concrete saw ?
-cordless trimmer/router ?
-framing nailer ?
-crates ?
But that’s about it… I was expecting more…
do we really need a radio for $300???? I am sure 23g nailer would be more useful.
Overall Milwaukee does amazing job, it’s not easy to keep up that kind of speed and release so many new tools every year, therefore its even more important to set up correct priorities.
Thank you.
Mane
How about just simply lowering the prices???
Eric Kenny
Rechargeable ratchet straps that you plug into cigarette lighter. Better gps locator ticks. Maybe smaller ones and w/ greater distance than 100′. I would sport a Milwaukee wallet if they had one. Milwaukee carpenters pants, milwaukee boots, milwaukee sunglasses, a vacuum hood for a mitre saw indoors. Bluetooth cordless 12v rechargeable magnetic trailer/tow lights. With a bluetooth module that plugs into your 4,5,6,7 pin plug from your vehicle. A cordless milwaukee bench vise. Milwaukee knee pads. I want the Milwaukee NM wire strippers back too. The 6 in 1 electricians tool for stripping romex outer sheeting off. Yr hey used to sell nbn it, but then they stopped.
