Hey Guys,
Last week Milwaukee Tool held their first of four virtual media events this year. These are open to John Q Public to watch as well. One of the new items was the Packout-compatible vacuum as seen above. Another tool was the new M18 Fuel OMT. Rob got his hands on that tool a bit early and the full review is down below.
If you missed the event but may want to tune into the next one, we've included a link here so that you can register and then be reminded for the next three episodes. Episode 2 is on September 10th at 5 PM CST so be sure to register before then. Episode 2 is all about Packout so it's one you don't want to miss!

One of the new tools shown off at the Milwaukee virtual media event last week was the new M18 Fuel Oscillating Multi Tool. Milwaukee secretly sent us this tool a month or two ago to put to use on the job site. So how did it do?
Coming this fall from Ryobi is a number of new cordless sprayers. These sprayers spray water based disinfectants or lawn and garden chemicals. The really cool part about it is that the droplets come out of the sprayer with a charge so that they stick to the objects being sprayed. Check out the preview at the link below.
In our latest head to head we test out the 5 best cordless tracksaws on the market. 4 of the brands I'm sure you've heard of before. Dewalt, Bosch, Festool, and Makita. But the 5th one, Mafell isn't as well known in the US as it is in Europe. So how did they stack up? Click the link for the full rundown.
