          Bigger and a little harder to use 1 handed than I expected but cuts smooth. Would be nicer if it had a faster speed like my smaller one does. And a trigger st the 2nd handle would be great. Otherwise it's great

            Possibly my favorite Milwaukee tool
            I’m on my second deep cut bandsaw, it’s been one of my most used and most reliable tools.

            Cuts through hard, thick metal perfectly with ease
            I work in the heavy civil construction industry and this 5" deep cut band saw has saved me so much energy and time, that it has already paid for itself! Everything about this bandsaw is of high quality and very durable. It has a good weight to it to allow it to cut any metal with no effort at all by the user, yet it's not too heavy as it remains portable enough to be taken anywhere. The blades are very simple and quick to change. The adjustable guide makes it easy to get clean and straight cuts.

              2in thick steel
              Super powerful. Cuts 2in thick plate like butter. This paired with the metal cutting circular saw and a grinder you can cut anything anywhere fast. I recommend getting the extreme thick blades. They seem to work the best for me. All in all I totally recommend this product.

              Warranty dont mean nothing
              Under 2 years old Bandsaw slipped of handle of my packout and hit the ground just right and cracked the frame of the pulley support system. Not covered by warranty at all. Called milwaukee to get part number to order replacement. Was giving plastic cover part number on the part that broke. Would not entertain the fact that could have need a bad mold and even cracked through the screw hole at a week point of the part

                M18 band saw
                Great saw! You need two hands to operate. To activate you need to press the rear trigger first then the front trigger.

                It paid for its self on the first use
                I have been wanting one of these for a long time but I held off until I really needed it. I had a job that called for 3 inch square columns welded to 12 inch base plates. I finished the job, but then the engineer changed the design and wanted 6 inch square columns instead. Rather than make all new base plates, I decided to cut them off and re use the original base plates. Trying to get a 28, 16 foot long columns into my bandsaw would have taken about a day. I was able to cut all of the base plates off in just over 2 hours with all of the material handling I had to do. It used 3 of the 5ah batteries to get through all 28 pieces. This saw paid for its self on the first use.
