Look Out Makita

[luke getz]

the only problem with that mark is that the metabos dont last as long as the makitas in my experience

Well to cap it off. The reason Bosch came to me is that they want to make a product for the stone industry specific and have a presence. This tool is the first generation. There will be modifications on the next but you gotta start somewhere and the intentions are all good.

The new model Makita we are testing is doing very well so far. The installers love it. Plenty of power, good balance, no "tail walking".

Kevin P, that is coon ass talk for ? got me too LOL. Daryll, what is tall walking? Is that the same as high stepping LOL?

[Darryl Miller]

Ha ha!! that is how my installer calls it. How when you are cutting a cooktop,etc. the tail end of the grinder wants to drift to one side or the other.

Come on! Both of you are from the south!! Either the Yanks already figured it out or they were too scared to ask.
