Full throttle! Makita 80V Chopsaw VS GAS!

What happens here

The assistant then performs a plunge cut test on a solid rock using the gas-powered Makita MM4 saw. The rock is a much denser and harder material than concrete. The saw is connected to a water supply for wet cutting. The gas saw demonstrates its raw power by cutting through the rock, though the presenter notes that the user must exert significant downward pressure.

Goal: Test the cutting power of the gas-powered saw on dense rock.

Tools and materials

  • Diamond Cut-Off Blade Makita — Attached to the saw for cutting rock
  • Safety Glasses — Eye protection during cutting
  • Water Supply System Makita — Providing water for wet cutting
  • Rock — Material to be cut

plunge cut all right let's go for it you got the gaser hooked up she's on the water supply as I hit the wrong button and turn it off little touchy all right this is the Precision test right here let see how precise you can do it these saws have more rotational now the blades you use make a huge difference and your cut performance of course I realize that and I know you guys know that now what we used on the battery powered saw was a dedicated blade that Makita has designed specifically for their battery powered saw just to make it run as a at its after at its absolute most Optimum now this gas powered saw that you see working here is running a brand spanking new chopsaw blade that I just pulled out of the package so both blades were brand new so the performance should not be affected that way so here's the cut off from the gas and here's the cut off from the battery equal yeah I'd say they're about equal actually it feel both the same actually I'm surprised all right plunge
