- I have been using the milwaukee cordless deep cut band saw for a few months now and love it. It is definitely one of those tools you don't use everyday, but when you do, It makes the job effortless.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether or not you use a Band Saw, and if so, have you found the cordless to be just as good or better than the corded version. I have used both, and personally I am going with the cordless deep cut band saw all day.

![Deep Cut Dual Trigger Band Saw Review - Milwaukee 2729S [REAL WORK]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/eCVkxBk_SaI/mqdefault.jpg)
This little band saw has turned out to be the best tool purchase I've ever made czcams.com/users/postUgkx5ZrqmYO2uJq_nuU8TopyWxVzn8vqmPUL Once doing the set-up as per the included suggestions, this table top tool has been my go-to saw ever since (8 months as of this review). There are few things I wouldn't attempt with this saw. It takes up much less space than my table saw yet delivers twice as much punch. I've used it to create slices of wood no thicker than an 1/16th of inch by using the POWERTEC BS900RF Rip Fence. For small shop projects this tool can't be beat.
Probably the best Ryan’s czcams.com/users/postUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans on building a shed is hardly ever found. And Ryan takes the mystery out of different types of foundation options, etc. He even shows how to build a shed with different designs. Very comprehensive, covering different roofing materials, siding, etc.
I have one of these. One of my favorite tools that I use daily. I install overhead doors all day long and use this for all my hangout cuts. One other plus is being able to work in factories with this. No sparks when cutting, so no hot work permits needed. Definitely a valuable tool!!
I noticed you had the Sawzall set to orbital. I have the same Sawzall and absolutely love it. But I do recommend turning the orbital off when cutting metal. It will reduce the vibration and bouncing effect and help produce a cleaner cut. Cheers
Beat the hell out of mine for months in the metal worker industry every day it's thrown around indoors and out. Best tool ever.
Been watching your builds for a while now. I have learned a lot. Aside from the badass builds - your tool reviews are great. As a business owner myself, it helps us make a decision before buying anything. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

I have a Milwaukee corded ban saw that my grandpa bought in 1993, same as yours but with a cord, it works awesome! I love it!
I have the shallower 3-1/4” Cut Capacity brushed M18 bandsaw I use ALL the time on job sites and in my videos... I've been thinking about getting this saw! You're completely CORRECT, once you have one, you'd be surprised how much you'll use it!
Thanks Kyle. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for the time and energy you take to put together top notch videos!!
I love my Milwaukee bandsaw. As a trim Carpenter doing multi family I use it all the time for cutting closet rods. Very clean cuts and fast
I live in an Asian country that has none of or ever heard of T-posts so we had to make them out of angle iron , almost 600 of them to fence in a property. We used this saw for that and was a huge time saver. The guys working for me had never seen such a tool and one guy said he could cut them far quicker with his trusty hacksaw , I cut 7 to his one . The men here don't have access and could not afford the kinda tools we use daily in the USA and most tools they don't even know what they are used for til I show them, and having contests with them is lots of fun . The only battery tool i have ever even seen here was a 9.6v Chinese brand drill. Best ever was attaching top plates to steel I-beam using Hilti coalated powder gun vs drilling and bolting . I fired 6 shots in maybe 10 seconds and they were still putting the drill bit in the drill.
Wow
So I guess in the months to come we will be seeing cheap imitations of the Hilti collated power gun. The Chinese are great at copying technology and making tools t a less expensive price. It may be a good thing, only time will tell...
@@pasqualeparente9776 nothing good comes from China!
Just my personal opinion.
@@mikeholubek4419 I agree but I believe someone will copy it and some clients will buy it.
@@pasqualeparente9776 no doubt it'll happen.
I jus can't believe they've been able to get away with as long as they have and americans buy it up.😡😡
Its the holiday season so I'm gonna Stop right here.
My buddy has one of those and they are an amazing tool! Lessons learned, the underside has moving parts. Don't set on your leg or anything you don't want scraped up until the blade/drums stop moving.
Merry Christmas to you, your family, and your crew Kyle! Great content as always.
Great job making me want a tool I don't really need...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Kyle, family and crew.
I have a corded band saw and rarely use it but when I do its great!
If I had to do it again I'd go cordless just for it ability to be used anywhere.
I've had tool for years and love it. Cut copper,pvc,cpvc, aluminum, stainless, and mild steal with it. Hell even used it on 8in schedule 40 steel pipe have to roll it but will cut no worries. My 12.0 battery sticks in saw so there is that as well I know u mentioned it but that's been my experience. 5.0 or 9s on mine. 12 sticks
Love mine, had it since it was released and I use mine a lot more after buying the SWAG Off-road portable bandsaw table they make for it. With the slots for a miter it’s really great for accurate cuts
Happy Holidays to you also Kyle, love your channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Merry Christmas Kyle, great video I love my m18 deep cut use it almost every day.
I know what metal cutting blades ill be buying now, holy shit that Diablos insane
Merry Christmas
Love my deep cut.
Good review, I bought the Milwaukee band saw last month and hav used it everyday for clean cuts works great
When you are indoor and you wanna keep the sparks and dust down. It is perfect
3:30 mark......closer “togeterr”........northern Illinois love it. Great videos Kyle Merry Christmas
Hope you and your family had s Merry Christmas.
Thanks for another informative video.
Mey you and your family have a heathy,prosperous and blessed new year.
When you think about speed, remember the reciprocating saw is only cutting half the time -- on the back stroke. The forward stroke cuts nothing -- just repositions the blade for the next back stroke. Helps explain part of why the band saw is so much faster -- it doesn't have that issue.
*Perfect band saw for the hobby enthusiast **MyBest.Tools** Easy to set up and square. Had it running in 10 to 15 minutes. Quality of cuts will depend on the quality of the blades.*
I use this for bigger stuff like my 4 in conduit. I use my m12 fuel for most of my other things. I wouldn’t say that this if for enthusiast I would say this is meant for pros!
I work in metal. Deablo saws all blades are my absolute go to. They are head and shoulders ahead of the competition, (Lenox makes a decent blade too)
Kyle, none of us 317K followers would ever say you are a failure. 👍 Portabands have come a long way since I was using a corded one in the 80's and 90's. Nice tool.
Love your videos, I have the same saw. In order for a straight cut, I first either use a laser line to trace (which the new saws now have) or you can simply draw your lines from a straight edge for a precision cut. Great job showing how everyone should own one.
as per the instructions with the band saw, use only the weight of the saw. Watch your line or reference the top of the battery for level to keep cuts straight. Great tool. The M12 version is also very handy.
My corded version mainly lives in a SWAG stand. It’s great for the small metal stuff I do then I can pop it out for bigger work. I like the battery powered stuff but I don’t need to be that mobile for what I do. Good content as always! Thanks!
As always good video, demo and personal opinions. Marry christmas! 😁👍
I'm watching this video 2 years in the future of you making it.
Saying things are going to get crazy in 2020 is a understatement! 😆
Kyle, sure is a good thing you redeemed yourself with that final cut. I know I, for one, totally ignored all the other amazing videos, buildings and content you have blessed us with in the past and judged you a failure based solely on that crooked bandsaw cut. Whew. That was close. ;-)
Keep up the great work, God Bless and Merry Christmas to you, your family, and the crew.
Lol thanks brother
Merry Christmas all! I have and use the 12volt system, love the Milwaukee tools!!
i haven't used the 12volt yet but heard guys love it
Great video and merry Christmas.
Very informative, Thanks Kyle
the main advantage with the band saw over the sawzall is the number of teeth used to cut
I've got a corded portable band-saw, so until it burns up, I'll have to make do with what I have. The Milwaukee cordless band-saw looks like a contender once the corded one dies.
The Diablo carbide blade for the Sawzall looks interesting. The only negative that I see is that the blade started turning blue (you're only using the area of whatever the saw stroke is), which normally means the steel is being annealed and it's soon to become a wobble blade. That blade does look like a perfect blade for demo work when you run into nails and other foreign material.
One thing you can do to increase blade life is to use a wax stick or a sulfur containing cutting lube for steel. The wax works great on aluminum where aluminum would melt into the blade if you get a bit aggressive.
The 10/14 tpi or 14 tpi blades are awesome on this saw, I used mine to cut the steel "I" beams from an old trailer hs to build a Dab press for making the sticky green, it's paid for itsself 100x over, merry Christmas 😆
Swag Off Road make a stand for the hand held band saw. I have one and love it!
As someone who works with steel as a career that adjustable shoe is a life saver
And of course I ordered a hoodie. Love the content so no problem supporting! Happy New year everyone
Love this channel. Also love bandsaws. If you read all the directions , a band saw will cut better on your first cut than cutting with a recip saw with 20 years exp
Kyle you are my “Tim the tool man Taylor” what a wonderful thing to be able to do!! Hohoho. Tools!!
Lol I do love tools
Me too bud!!
I like where the battery is located on the Milwaukee. We have a Dewalt and to put a bigger battery in it is a tight squeeze and also makes it awkwardly balanced.
Merry Christmas 🎄 and long Live the super sawzall also , it would be interesting to cut metal with Milwaukee fuel 7/9 big grinder . Happy New Year
Merry Christmas from top of the world, Alaska
Merry Christmas !! from Chile
Great video, I was looking into how this would work on metal, specifically for cutting keystock (generally 1/2 -1" thick, probably with multiple clamped together.
I'm always more interested in what you have in the background! You going to do a video on that Milwaukee tool chest?
Bandsaw are good for small pipe jobs it says 5” x 5” but it’ll do 6” pipe std. We use them a lot in places where hot work isn’t necessary or dangerous like wood chip, hydrogen, natural gas lines or pneumonia. Refineries use em for the crude oil and so much more where sparks can detonate and constant monitoring to fire watch. Great tool just like a big bandsaw it saves you on consumable and no metal dust. Can use some cutting oil to prolong blade life.
I have one and use it pretty often. I had the corded version of the same saw but it got stolen then I got the cordless one. Damn fine tools. I’m wanting the new cordless 8” metal saw now.
That diablo blade stole the show. I need to cut out some cast iron drain pipe from under the house. I know what I’m buying for that.
I'm a plumber and I love the diablos for cast iron cutting ,they will cut the pipe like butter.
Nothing beats Diablo blades
I wish they made bandsaw blades 🥲
Let the tool do the work. lol sorry just had to. I love my band saw. Merry Christmas to you and your family
You hit it right the first time. Those porta band saws do take getting used to. I comes from the angle of the machine to the cut line. Necessary to get any throat clearance but not ergonomic by a long shot. I have used the corded variety for years and you have to pay attention because the weight being off balance it does want to cut anything but perpendicular. Even more so with the full size versions. Love the babies for being handy. Just try one handing a full sized one!! I will say that they are so much more economical than a sawzall whose price per carbide blade really make them great when needed but cost per cut and life of the blade just don't compare. Cords are a pain but batteries eat money even when they are on the shelf self discharging. I tend to fabricate around the shop where power is available so I haven't got into cordless grinders or porta bands. Good video now do a follow on comparing available blades in bi metal for them. Merry Xmas. Doug
Douglas Thompson new lithium batteries take literal months to even slightly discharge. Huge difference from the old Nicd and Nimh batteries
Never thought of you as a failure I enjoy your videos thanks I got the Milwaukee cordless router for Christmas I'm pretty excited
Definitely subscribed. Thanks for the video man, we know you're not a failure.
I just bought this. I am a DeWalt guy. I bought the bare tool for 275 and a battery adapter to use my 20v/60v on it. Everyone hates it and calling me a traitor. LoL =] I have always loved Milwaukee and only stayed with DeWalt because of the flex 💪 however if I knew what Milwaukee had planned I would had fully converted. =]
Great review Cheers
I purchased Milwaukee blades for cutting thick steel and they worked fine, too!
From my experience try to maneuver the Sawzall blade to where you're not constantly cutting with a certain portion to reduce overall wear and as for the I beam flip it on its side to where the shoe is resting on a flat surface guaranteed to give you a better cut great video man love the m18 bandsaw does wonders especially when avoiding sparks from a cut off blade lol and circular saws are cool but having hot metal chips flying around everywhere maybe isn't the best way to go when you got a bandsaw haha
The review for him actually using the tools starts at 11:38
sweet jess man, that sawzall is a beast, i´ve bought the dewalt atomic version wich is only 1inch 3/4 space to cut, it works nice, however the 5" space for projects is so important, I´m buying one of these milwakee, they´re just too nice.
Love your channel
Great for conduit and unistrut as well as threaded rod. Great for electricians.
Yeah IBEW LOCAL 11 Electrician here, we use them on alot of our sites, started to favor them over Makita
Any good on galvanized cable tray?
@@chrisyarrr It'll work
@@PacoimaLobo Local 340 here and we have this on our site I'm working too. Makes my life so much easier
@@lazydream3r Really helps when you have tools that work as hard as we do
Just for anyone else who has yet to pick up a band saw, since you've probably since learned where you went wrong: if you have the capacity (width) always cut I beams down the short side. Is easier to guide, less potential to skew the cut, and you cut faster since more surface area is exposed to the teeth at any given time. Similarly, angle iron should be cut from the corner of the angle if possible.
that Diablo blades are great. Great info Merry Christmas
Where does Diablo make a blade for it? I've never seen one
@@chrisjones6165 Home Depot has them
Store SKU #1000526877
One benefit to the bandsaw is less heat buildup. Using the other saws I have had blades turn blue without a lubricant of some type..
plumber by trade, I have replaced several different tools I used to use with this one tool. If you can fit it in there it will cut it!
You are good you just sold me one I"ll pick it up tomorrow well done.
I have the same tool, used today. I love keeping the shoe down too and didn’t know really worry about the reasoning as I haven’t had to or don’t cut things more than 2-3”. But watching the video helped. Or it seems to me like it did and you might have already watched it before uploading and noticed, but;
It seemed like on both cuts, it got off path when the shoe reached its limit. If you raise it up but still leave a little to get you started will that solve the problem?
I know you were just in a hurry and cutting for the sake of showing the tool or else you would have been more focused or had a line to follow etc. lol. But that’s just something I noticed on the side view of the first cut and watched again on the second. However I would like to point out, if that is a culprit or it helps etc. I wouldn’t have realized it so quick had u not pointed it out at first and not really known what it was for lol. Teamwork
Hey Kyle
But have you seen the new jumbo Milwaukee batteries with light equipment?
;D
I'm behind on my viewing pleasure but being in the fabricating business, I was impressed with that diablo blade.
This is great 👍
Does it fit in the new Hercules portable bandsaw stand for angle and table upright cutting and do they make a corded one in that size
I wonder what (portable) tool would be best for (safely) cutting firewood cords lengthwise?
I think I agree with the ladies on this particular one; "Unless I can sense sparks flying, It's not for me!". Grinder life!! ♥️
looking for opinions, cutting mostly 2 & 7/8" tubing with occasional 1" square tubing, should I get deep cut or compact?
Safety third...lol. I'm 55 and been building for 35 years. I'd work for you for a year in a heartbeat just to learn your ways as they are better than what I've developed....that's a decent attaboy my friend!!!!
Wow john that is a great compliment
Office wall is looking good. Is that the same stuff you put on the barn from last build? Merry Christmas to you and your family
Yes sir. Thank you
so trying to decide, for someone that cuts lots of 2 7/8" tubing and occasionally 1" square tubing, is it better to get the compact or the deep cut?
It will be cool a video about nails, screws all the hardware is use on the buildings.
Ismael ll Pastoriza yes please Kyle
I use one of these every day in a fab shop to cut mainly 3/16 stainless tube i go thru a blade every 5-10 cuts we use the nice starret blades and they just dont last i would never buy one of these for personal use.
The sawzall blade will last a lot longer if you use a bigger part of the blade by reciprocating it back and forth. Often people end up with the beginning of the blade ruined and the rest good as new.
I disagree, burning out the beginning of the blade is normal because your suppose to pressure the sawzall against the material so the saw isn't moving back and forth. Not saying you cant cut something moving back and forth but it will cut way better with the sawzall not moving and pressed against the material to keep it still.
@@simpsons721 The back of the reciprocating saws blade is sterdier but all you have to do is reach half way depth of the material you are cutting or full depth with regards to blade height to start using the middle part of the blade which will double the blades life. Just saying it's not convenient to run to the store, it's not cost effective and it seems to be a waste of good blade. If the only part you could use of a sawzall blade would be the beginning then they would make 3 inch blades only.
We wanna see skilsaw cordless Worm Drive review too. Thanks
There a company that makes a table for those to lock into and you have a portable band saw table, which is super handy of small metal trim pieces, around windows, thresholds and what, j channel you name it
SWAG Table. I made the same comment in a prior video.
@@BarryMikkelsen That is true . But there is also a C clamp type tool to attach the Porta Band to if you need to cut tubes both in the vertical or horizontal position and precision is critical. Check it out. There are also portable tables to make this porta Band into a chop saw. The only down side was that the original holders produced by the manufactures such as Porter Cable the inventor and Milwaukee is that they were super expensive and therefore were not sold often....
Always good to practice safety 3rd. Thats so true.
Nice workshop
Should turn the orbital off when cutting metal with the sawzall, the extra vibrations are rough on the carbide teeth.
Merry Christmas!!!
We the people are curious what happened with the home remodeling??? Any updates in that playlist???
I know I know
RR Buildings that’s your old lady hiding behind a fake user name. Better quit goofing off with your CZcams buddies and get after that remodel. Lol
The adjustable shoe is a god sent. Especially when cutting larger material like pipe. Cut a piece of 2” pipe with the shoes all the way up and then try cutting a piece of 4” with the shoe in the same position and you will realize the necessity of the adjustable shoe
And thanks to Doug at Greenlee Construction, the deep cut and M12 will live in the 26 Milwaukee red box.
Is there a 6inch width version of this kind of band saw?
Cool tool, cuts steel like a knife butter 👍
What happened with your bathroom rehab? Never seen the finished product.
Great video. Love that tool. Don't be too hard on yourself on that cut with the band saw.........unless of course Greg does it perfect the first time he tries. 😉 😂
PS: As a Diablo boy how about a test of their new open back sandpaper on the job? Sounds like a winner if it proves out.
Hmm gotcha maybe I can do a project
I’m a plumber. How do you think it handles 4 inch cast iron?
