the still is the best product that money can buy i think you mispronounced the word milwaukee morky
is far better than that still no right welcome back to machinery nation guys now we have got
three relatively new products in front of us and two big questions to answer and what are those
questions ryan handheld battery pruners are they a gimmick or they a proper tool if you are going to
get one which is the best one to buy first up we have the 10.8 volt still gta 26 has a bar length
of 10 centimeters running a quarter inch chain and it weighs in at 1.8 kilograms the kit comes
complete with case chain oil 2 amp hour battery and charger all in at 169 pounds next we have the
milwaukee m12 fhs fuel pruning saw which is a bar length of 15 centimeters and a weight of 2.3 kilos
this kit as you see it comes with the 6 amp hour 12 volt battery chain oil and standard charger
all in at 218 pounds and 99 pence and finally we have got the cheapest mini chainsaw we could
find on amazon this is the jamal m8844 has a bar length of 10 centimeters and weighs in at just
680 grams and believe it or not it comes complete with two 20 volt batteries we are unsure what apps
they are there's no information on there anywhere but this whole kit with a spare chain in a little
makeup bag along with a toothpick and a little iron it is in there we promise and there it is oh
one a screwdriver i love the color coded in this thing all in at 39 pounds first test see how they
cut through here we'll time them see what was the best so first up we have got the gta 26 from steel
now this little puppy here you've got to self oil so we've got some multi bio oil from still
we're just going to run that round get a little bit splash back at the same time
there she is all oiled up ready to rock and roll three two one prune
nice next up is milwaukee this has got an on-board
oil tank to make things more efficient three two one go
what up puppy so just like the still you've got to
dribble your oil onto the guide bar luber up three two one go
now try something a little bit bigger let's go for this one three two one go
cool that still does a really clean cut doesn't it beautiful
right let's give the morky a go count me in three two one go
look at that and last but not least the cheapest one we could find on amazon
the joomla count me in ryan three two one cut
it's doing it
but for 20 volt that's quite slow so we know these can cut wood no problem at all
but what other uses do they have we'll be set a little challenge to see what we can create
with these blocks of wood so we're going to try a little bit of carving josh here
they've got the two there a bit of an edward scissorhand sort of theme going on
and i've got them walking right counting well we'll give it a go give ourselves 10 minutes
more ten minutes let's see what we can create all right then let's go for it three two one go
what have you only just started right
there's only a basic design
so another application for these saws would be carpentry so in this test we're going to do this
pallet wood we want to see how clean the cut is not how fast but how clean let's go still up first
so
so you're going to sum it up for us right yeah so looking at these cuts here they're still
cuts probably the smoothest out of all of them it's a nice clean cut here
the more key a bit more jagged but the last one the uh jimmy looks like it's chewed it to be fair
just remember these videos are sponsored by our sponsor haze machinery and thank you haze
machinery for supplying the steel gta 26. thank you for walking for giving this one
to do in the video and thank you dpd for not losing this parcel in the post so just let
you guys we want to see what these things do in their real world environment we've got one
fallen apple tree in the orchard we've got three products let's do some reviews let's crack on
thing is you push it down too much at all then it will start
to just stop i am liking it it's really really light very ergonomic
nice and easy left a left or right handed operation which i really really like being a lefty
the only other thing you'll have instead of like a battery saw like this would be like a hand saw
so something like um silky get some of that
silky's not necessarily going to cut as fast or as light lasts as long
so many things these hat is hand pruning saw spatula because the chain speed is
not as quick as a normal chainsaw you don't have to have any chain breaks and all that
right let's give josh a go see what he thinks of the gta 26 let's give this gta 26 a go now
i do really like how it fits in your hand it's really really comfortable
got a nice little operator switch there as well got the handy
charge indicator the only thing that lets you down a little bit is obviously you've
got to oil the chain manually but let's give it a go see what it's all about yeah boy
yeah it's nice that fitted with a quarter inch chain it's really smooth cutting
so morky biggest bar bigger chain on it
it is definitely heavy so i wouldn't want to really be using this all day every day
so it definitely has the most power nice two-handed grip there because
on something like this you would actually need that two-handed
it's nice it's got the built-in um chain oiler
just munches through that
what a beast definitely my favorite but if i was doing higher things i was using it for a
couple of hundred cuts because i'm guessing the six amp hour battery will last that long
and it is quite weighty josh what do you reckon can we give it a go
five-star review for the milwaukee apparently i swear i heard a dolphin
i think one thing that we forgot to mention with this which makes it such a good system
is the m12 range as you can utilize that battery in the rest of the milwaukee range
so that it makes that a universal product if you've got the m12 batteries already
just buy the bare unit makes it a more cost effective option
certainly i've got the most power on it ryan yeah definitely my most powerful
i think being left-handed i got a bomb there going press so that's annoying so
i'm going to press out of that first one i use this one sounds all right i
suppose right let's give it a go so cheap and cheerful one from amazon
that feels horrible my vibration you got this
so it matters a lot of vibration because the motors are the side of that you can't really
get in many places out there well because the other one's quite in line aren't they
and it's meant to be the most powerful being 20 volt but yeah that's it i mean
it's definitely lightest so it feels it feels nice in the hand but it's just
oh that's just file to use
has got a 20 volt max battery so that 20 volt max so it could be
one volt to be honest yeah better than 20 20 volt clive i guess yeah that's it yeah
yeah so uh yeah i'm going to give it a go now and see what it's all about but like ryan says it is
quite nice in the hand but it does feel very very cheap right let's do some cutting
oh it's not smooth at all is it no it's not it's like chewing trying to chew it all up
do you know the other thing i don't like about this is you've got to charge the battery
independently you don't slide it on a charger okay so that's really
very very plasticky it's got a battery gauge on it so you can see how many
there you go made light work of that no i both think we are in agreement that still
is the best product that money can buy i think you mispronounced the word milwaukee
morky is far better than that still no mistake mr what do you think the hatchet longer bar how many
tools can you put that battery in there's a couple yeah two or three yeah two or three yeah milwaukee
a couple hundred tools you can use the m2 battery on so if you've got the m12 platform this is the
one to go for most power it's all about the power built an oiler there is someone to have yes you
can probably buy two of them i agree with that this is a more cost effective option it feels
better in your hand it's a smoother cut it is it is but it might not be quite so powerful but then
if you are pruning you're only pruning stuff sort of a couple of inches bigger at most anyway so
i do prefer that but i can see where you come from ryan the milwaukee has got some nice pieces
i mean are they gimmicky well no the only other option you've currently
got on the market are you looking at a foldable saw a little handsaw
it's great if you're doing one or two branches but if you've got to do an area like this
you're going to want some others yeah there's been more cosplay it's going to take you a lot less
time to cut all the branches up with something like this than you have with your hands and it's
a lot safer than a normal saw lots especially if you don't need to basically cut through massive
great long logs and stuff like that we might disagree of which one and the best tool is however
we don't disagree with that absolute litter thank you for watching like share and subscribe drop
