So we basically wrapped up Makita in 2022, or so we planned (*’ω’*)
Just one item left on the list (;’∀’)
I’ve looked through the Makita general catalog over and over and over again…
“Hmm… if I get the chance, I’d like to try this?”
So I put together this humble five-pick list (;’∀’)
Is this fun? I wonder…

Makita Cordless Vacuum Pump (with battery and charger) VP180DRG
This is pretty much a purchase decision, but the price doesn’t match the frequency of use.
If a used one comes up, I’d definitely want it.
If we had this, we’d basically complete the cordless setup.
I think it would be really good for anyone who wants to bleed air from their suspension.

Makita Cordless Material Cart CU180DZN
Absolutely don’t need it, but… don’t you kind of want one anyway?
I’m all about wanting to move heavy stuff… electrically.
Even if I bought it, there’s no real use for it“Push someone around on it”maybe?
If you have a spacious garage, definitely go for it (*’ω’*)

Makita 18V Cordless Reciprocating Saw JR189DZ
I thought it might replace an air saw.
But it can’t match the compactness of an air saw.
I’d like to try it once to see what kind of performance a motor delivers.

Makita 18V Cordless Random Orbital Sander BO180DZ
It’s a bit large, but it might have high expectations.
The motor power, low loss, and dust collector connection seem promising.
Considering the size, weight, and how effective the dust collection is, I think it could work pretty well on motorcycles too.

Makita 18V Cordless Handy Saw MUC101DZ
It might be useful when you want to pointlessly cut and dispose of wood or plastic stuff.
It’s probably quite“a good product?”or“hard to get”it seems.
That’s Makita for you“hits keep coming”
I bought a similar Bosch one before
and that was“pretty useless”.
That B company’s model would bend the blade if you used it a bit hard or twisted it
and you’d end up needing a
“blade replacement”
Blades are subtly expensive. With these kinds of tools, they’re consumables, so it’s tough if supply isn’t quick.
From what I can see in the images, the MUC101DZ looks“pretty rugged?”so it smells promising, but since I don’t have a chance to cut wood, I’m just drooling over it.
If you want to aggressively fell trees in your yard, definitely give it a try.
