New Dewalt Cordless Woodworking Tools - Router Jigsaws and Sander

What do you think that Dewalt will come out with in 2019?

Shown above are the new Dewalt brushless cordless woodworking tools – a router, jigsaws, and a sander. All but maybe the router are available now, with the router expected to ship maybe this month or next.

I would guess that Dewalt will continue along these lines, producing more 20V Max brushless power tools. For example, maybe we’re due to see a compact Dewalt circular saw for cutting flooring, trim, and other such materials?

What cordless tools do you want Dewalt to come out with in 2019?

Me? I’m waiting for a FlexVolt 120V Max 10″ portable table saw with AC adapter, or a USA version of their FlexVolt 10″ miter saw. Not because I want them personally, but because I think it will be the next step forward in the very competitive cordless power tool industry.

The Dewalt FlexVolt battery system is now 2.5 years old, and with other brands having closed the performance gap, Dewalt could and should have something up their sleeve to push things forward a little further. I just can’t put my finger on what that could be. I know that readers have been asking for a 60V Max AC adapter, but I’m not sure that’s something they’re willing to do.

Honestly, I’m also really hoping that Dewalt breaths new life into their 12V Max cordless power tool platform. With Stanley Black & Decker sure to launch a new Craftsman 12V Max cordless power tool lineup, maybe that will lower some of the costs related to developing new and upgraded Dewalt tools.

So, what new Dewalt cordless power tools do you want to see or think we’ll see this year?

    Id love to see expansion into the 12v system as well, even though you can get some unique stuff from Mac that Dewalt doesnt have. Its just alot more expensive. M12 just kills them though in offerings.

    Maybe some new toughsystem offerings as well

      Happy New Year my fellow craftsmen (& women). I agree, Red is running away with the smaller, handier, compact for tight spaces market. M-12s are great!

      Yes, Iwas a loyal, nothing but DeWalt until I was surprised by family (who know my allegiances) with a couple of M-12s. Well, I tried the Stubby 3/8 Impact on a recent automotive project and was more than pleased. DeWalt, where are you? The smae with the 3/8 Brushless Ratchet…same project. Come on DeWalt, the competition is running away with innovation. I’m still a loyal, die hard Black and Gold preferred user but you gotta give it to Red. I pray Dewalt hurrys up with a 20V Brushless trim saw in the 5 3/8 inch range. Several colleagues and myself have met at HD on more than one occasion to fondle Reds M-12 trim saw. It is sweet! Honestly, both companies produce quality battery driven offerings. It just seems to many consumers that Red is beating B&G to the market place with new offerings.

        I am HUGE on the Trim Saw idea-been waiting on that for quite some time…

        4 years ago, I switched careers from salesman to hands-on and didn’t own even a hammer. So my journey began buying tools. I NOW own 11 FlexVolt tools alone and stick with DeWalt and Ridgid.

        Back when I began, I saw a Christmas special @ Sam’s Club for a Black and Decker Matrix 5-Tool combo kit and got it. It was against my brother’s (a carpenter) advice because he told me that tools like that won’t hold up in the long run.

        I then noticed the Craftsman Bolt On and further discovered that the heads are interchangeable with the Matrix and vice versa. I have all 14 heads and enjoy it at times, but I find myself using that trim saw more than anything else, hands-down. Really don’t use anything else in the set. Just holding onto it as I see the price go up and up due to it being discontinued.

        I do restoration (water/fire/mold/sewer) and there are times that I come across a hardwood floor that is warped and as a side note, THAT is where the FlexVolt Circular Saw impresses the hell out of me. Never binds up. But DARE I try the same thing with that little trim saw?

        I would LOVE to see a DeWalt version of it. The one I have?

        1.) No depth adjustment.
        2.) No Miter adjustment.
        3.) No vacuum port.
        4.) Not Brushless.

        Kobalt recently came out with a 4 inch 24 Volt Brushless version of the tool, and I’m so amped up about it that I’m going to give it a try. Heard alot of great things about their 24 Volt lineup and will probably get their Oscillating Tool as well, albeit the DeWalt one I have is PERFECT.

        But yeah, if there was one tool that I would pray for DeWalt to release, it would be a trim saw in the 4 inch range. Perhaps 4-1/2? And if there is a god, 60 (56) volts would make me the happiest man on earth.

    My ex-compatriots in the plumbing business bought into M12 and then moved into Milwaukee M18 – because Milwaukee offered of plumbing-specific tools – ahead of their competition. Dewalt – was a bit late to the party – but has started – and probably has a market for other tools in this area. Maybe a cordless water pump- capable of quickly pumping out a 80-100 gallon water heater might be an example. More capable (than their current offerings) sewer and drain cleaning tools would also be welcome. How about using their flexvolt technology to build a clamp-on “soldering iron” for sweating fittings in tight areas where using a torch is a hazard? Flexvolt might also be used to power better lighting solutions.

      I like this idea! I’d probably buy a cordless transfer pump that could handle a wider variety of liquids including gasoline and more viscous materials.

      I just checked and Ryobi and Milwaukee both make transfer pumps already, so…hurry up DeWalt!

      • fred says

        Jan 8, 2019 at 6:11 pm

        Building a pump that can handle both viscous and volatile liquid is a challenge. It is also possible that the manufacturers would not want to place their imprimatur on an electric gasoline pump to be sold to the general public. They might think that liability issues would abound.
        Lifting volatile liquids can also be a problem for pumps – gasoline’s vapor pressure (while it can be a bit variable) can have an effect on NPSHA – and evaporation of the gasoline you are tying to pump can result in cavitation. I guess you could easily build a pump to sit on the ground and (with flooded suction) transfer gasoline out of your gas tank. But if you want a pump to sit at ground level and transfer gasoline up and out of an underground storage tank – that is a challenge.

        I would like the biscuit joiner. I had an 18v biscuit joiner in the 90s and really liked it but it needed more power. Today’s tech would easily solve that. I’m not sure the biscuit joiner is popular enough today for them to spend any resources on it though.

        I wish they would come out with a Flexvolt Keurig.

        But at a crazy $240 bare tool price. I have no idea if it is more comprable to the Milwaukee standard M12 ratchet or the Fuel model, but either way it is $140 or $90 more than Milwaukee.

        The Mac unit looks nice, but not that that price nice. I see too many tech’s that have a full lineup of M12 tools. It seems Dewalt will have some serious marketing to do if they are going to get people to switch.

      I think we should not think of a cordless Heat Gun, that tool would need a lot of energy and battery would die in a few minutes, if in the future they can make a 20Ah small batteries maybe yes, that tool would be OK, I have used 5Ah batteries with a cordless grinder to cut metal and it has last just 5 minutes maximum, so I have given up with cordless grinder for cutting metal, I would never plan my work for cutting metal with a cordless grinder and 5Ah battery, 12Ah batteries are really bulky also, I would use Flexvolt batteries with the tools that I am not going to hold in my hand, like mitre saw, table saw, vacuum cleaner, lights, fan, table tile saw, metal chop saw and any other tools that are used for metal cutting or grinding process, but with other tools I prefer 20V and 12V batteries.
      DeWALT has already had cordless 14.4V and 18V joiner (which is very difficult to google and find photos of them even, unless someone puts one to sell on eBay) they just have to update it for new battery platform which is much easier than developing new tools.
      12V cordless stapler would be a nice tool.
      18V soldering gun would be the best tool of 2019….
      You don’t need DeWALT to make a cordless ratchet, Facom already has one which works with DeWALT batteries.
      They will definitely come up with a Flexvolt 230mm/9″ cordless grinder and I am sure it is going to be in 2019, others did and DeWALT would not wait more not making an important tool in cordless version, we will see…
      I doubt DeWALT will make a 60V AC adapter soon, this is out of the horizon of business way of thinking, at least as a short term plan in not and can’t be. If you just think deeply about what could have been made by now and has not been, you will get the answer very quickly. So I doubt we will not see an AC adapter for 60V tools at least for 5 years, we will see this as well!
      Yes, cordless small sears for gardeners would be a nice tool.

    Surprise ‘hit’ of 2018 for me was the little inflator. That thing is a gem. I’m still waiting to pick up the couple of 20V disc sanders I ordered.

    In 2019, I’d love to see a 12V or 20V stapler (T50 type not narrow crown) and a 20V belt sander (or possibly 60V if they could manage this while still making in ergonomic).

    DItto on the Flexvolt 120V Max table saw capable of using same 120V adapter (DCA120) as my Flexvolt 12″ 790 miter saw. Second option, a 60V adaptor…although that would be either heavier and/or more expensive than the simple 120V adapter, due to need to drop the voltage.

    Also, an AC option for the Dewalt DCL079 tripod light at minimum. (Love the RED light similar to DCL079, only with AC option and built-in charger….and three part LED head. )

    I would like to see a 1/4 & 3/8″ 12 or 20v ratchet and a 10″ 20/60v miter saw, I have the 120v flexvolt 12″ and the 7 1/4 )” 20v , the 120v is kind of a pain to lug around and the 7 1/4 has just a hair too small cutting capacity.

    I strongly considered getting into the FlexVolt stuff, and probably would have if they made more tools 120 with a wall adapter option. I considered a flexvolt miter and table saw, but when I realized the table saw was only 60v, didn’t have a 10″ blade, and wasn’t capable of being plugged into the wall, I just abandoned the idea completely and bought a standard miter saw and table saw.

    The ability to use cordless tools in a corded capacity as needed really appeals to me. I don’t know that it’s really that beneficial in real world use, but that doesn’t make me want it any less.

    I’m waiting for the first price drop on that barrel grip jig saw. Otherwise I might buy something else (the bosch corded device it high on my list too) but

    I too would like to see the 10 inch mitre saw as I’ve about talked myself into that size of slider for use. but I’d want it to still have the AC adapter ability and I bet it won’t

    I’d like to see the cordless heatgun I could use that.

    Cordless solder I don’t know but like the guy above size a clamp on fitting thing for plumbers might be that niche tool that also sells well.

    I don’t know if they have a cordless belt sander but that might should happen.

    cordless ratchet but I suspect that will always be a MAC tool – but I want to see one on the 20V line.

    I want every tool to be AC/DC powered. If they can do it in a laptop or a phone, they can do it in a tool.
    The reason they don’t is they’d lose money on battery sales. Some company will take the plunge to gain sales and the rest will fall in line.

        my issue is how long is the cord between the converter brick to the battery replacement connection. It needs to be at least 8ft if not more to be comfortable to use. That brick is going to be as heavier than a laptop module due to the current throughput need.

        By the time I buy the tool and a battery or 2 – I have all I need for a while. There’s only a hand full of tools I want corded anyway these days and I might as well just buy the corded versions. Grinders fit that need as do sanders. but drills, drivers even recip saws, no thanks.

          Some tools like the jigsaw are better balanced with a battery. I can see them making the ‘brick’ the same size/shape as the battery and just have a long cord coming out of it.
          Though having the brick in the middle of the cord has some appeal since the tool is lighter in your hand.

      I like the sounds of a 10″ with an AC adapter so I could eliminate the need for my current tablesaw. The 8″ sounds competent enough as a jobsite saw, but I don’t have a very large collection of flexvolt batteries to avoid the risk of running out of power and don’t want to cut corners on the cutting capacity either.

      Sales guy showed me that they changed the DCN692 quietly at the end of last year. He did a side by side and the difference is night and day (it actually sinks the nails now). The upgraded model has the switch for bump down by the battery like the new plastic framer… not sure why they didnt change model numbers.

      They haven’t blown it off, really. Just went the instrumentation route. Plenty of lasers and inspection equipment. I bet they make a good deal of money off of it, hence why that’s what they’ve persisted in releasing. There’s a lot of exclusive 12v tools in yellow, but everyone wants to to see something akin to Milwaukee’s (impressive) core tool explosion. Just because you don’t use it, doesn’t mean there’s nothing available 👍

        It may all depend on your hand size. I like the M12 tools quite a bit and how they fit my hands. I’ve heard others opine that they like the ergonomics of the Bosch (10.8 aka 12V ) tools better. My wife doesn’t like how the M12 tools fit in her hands – but likes Makita’s 12V CXT tools – that have slide inn battery packs – perhaps making the handles a bit slimmer or more contoured.

    I would expect an update to their cordless framing nailer. I still don’t understand why they don’t have a 6.5” brushless circular saw, so maybe one of those. I expect some new hand tools as a result of the craftsman buyout, maybe some new lighting offerings to compete with Milwaukee more in that area, and some more tstak/toughsystem expansion as well.

      There’s a brushed 6.5″, a brushless 7.25″ and a flexvolt 7.25″. I don’t see the need to add a model between the 6.5 brushed and 7.25 brushless, but maybe I’m missing the point of having a smaller brushless saw?

        An update to the 6.5 in brushless would be welcome to many. Big point of pride in my brushed one is just the battery life doing light rough cuts all day. Form setting and the like. I imagine a brushless variant would further exceed what I already like about my current one.

        Depends of the orientation they do it in. Some may prefer opposite (whatever you consider it) of what the Flexvolt 7-1/4″ is.

        I would love for tool companies to release a 7-1/4″ in both right & left blade options, forget 6-1/2″ even exists . If 6-1/2″ blades were priced relative to 7-1/4″ & more readily available, I would re-consider wanting a 6-1/2″.

          Flexvolt has a left and right 7.25″, I own the left, worm style, so clearly that plus my 6.5″ shows my desire for a blade left 6.5″ update lol I’ve been fortunate to not have any trouble sourcing the blade size locally as well. Though it’s been awhile, I don’t recall the price being unreasonable for the 6.5″ around Franklin hardware. I see your point, though.

        Brushless is significantly more powerful than brushed, it would basically render the brushed one obsolete, they are lightweight, powerful, usually blade left (many people prefer this) and when dealing with dimensional lumber no real difference in cut depth from a 7 1/4” blade. If you’re cutting all day, I’d much rather do that, and only grab a worm drive or use a miter saw for deeper cuts. I don’t do a ton of framing, but I haven’t had a 7 1/4” or worm drive in over 4 years and haven’t missed it one bit. I can do so much work out of position with my Milwaukee 6.5 brushless it’s crazy. Dewalts brushes model is just underpowered to make it very useable. Makita has one that is very popular and they have their blade-right subcompact that is even smaller, but with the same blade size and depth of cut. It’s a very popular size

          Europe even has some larger cordless pressure washers, but we haven’t gotten them over here yet. The ryobi 36V (40V here) looks particularly interesting, supposed to be real useable pressure, my problem with the worx is while it’s good as a fairly high pressure hose and can draft, it really wasn’t a good pressure washer, because the pressure was not great.

    Hope to see a bigger expansion in their Flexvolt line up this year. I am pretty excited about the new 60v 5000 lumen erea work light that’s coming out and maybe the dust vac/shop vac. There is a bunch of stuff I’d like to have though, like a Dewalt Flexvolt cordless pressure washer with tank on top for use away from a water source. A Flexvolt weed wacker that uses attachments like ryobi’s, an 18″ Flexvolt chainsaw with a tough blade tensioner like Husqvarna ect. and a smaller Flexvolt miter saw. And
    a Flexvolt side walk edger. I’d also like to see a smaller light weight 60v mower. If I could get all this I’d through all my 40v Kobalt and 40v ryobi stuff in a yard sale 🙂

    I almost exclusively use flexvolt tools for custom home building. The two things I would like to see is the AC adapter for the cordless table saw and better cold weather performance of the batteries. When the temp drops below 25 the flexvolt batteries take forever to charge. This is pretty significant negative for the climate I live in.

          I too was hoping for more and better 60v Dewalt OPE because I have had good experiences with their 40v string trimmer and then the 60v chainsaw and blower. With good power and run time from all of these I was expecting a 60v lawn mower to perform well also. Well, the 60v lawn mower never materialized and the 40v and 20v mowers were getting such bad reviews that I jumped to EGO equipment with no regrets. The EGO lineup is more extensive than either Dewalt or Milwaukee and so far the quality and performance seems second to none.

    I don’t know that it will ever happen, but I’d love a brushless 20v XR miter saw. The brushed 7 1/4″ DCS361 is a great little saw, but I think it would benefit from a brushless motor. I think it’s logical to up it size slightly and make it either 8 1/4″ or possibly even 10″. I know everyone wants a 60v or 120v FLEXVOLT 10″ miter saw, but it will be nearly as hefty and costly as the existing 120v FLEXVOLT 12″ saw. As a self employed crafts/furniture maker, I’d rather have a smaller, lighter, cheaper 20v. With that said, if they make a 60V 10″ miter saw, I would buy it.

      I too would be in for a Flexvolt 60v sliding miter saw like they have over seas. Looked into buying one off eBay but after shipping it was way to much money. I would love to stay with just the Dewalt brand platform, if they’d make more variety. Btw they should come out with “Craftsman professional” and use the the powered by Dewalt like they did on Mac 20v tools. Tool makers forget that everyone one on the job site wants high quality tools, but like different brands so their tools don’t mistakenly get mixed up with the other workers. Hope “Stanly black&Decker” read this. It not to late to fix Craftsman!

    I too kind of wish DeWalt would put some more 12v Max tools out, but I think they pretty much decided to focus on the 20v and Flexvolt for tools. Honestly, I can see why, since my 12v Max tools aren’t any smaller than the newer 20v Max stuff, and even my (non-Fuel) M12 impact is bigger than the M18 One Key. Even so, Milwaukee has shown that technology can be applied to newer tools to keep the lower voltage systems relevant.

      In our plumbing business – plumbers might use an M12 Hackzall under the sink – but a M18 super hole hawg was the tool of choice using big selfeed bits to drill clearance holes.

    Amen on wanting the 12v range to be expanded. Recently I’ve been making a huge amount of use of the 12v screwdriver, because of size and weight – so much easier to carry around a light tool when walking across large sites, every gram less makes a difference.

    would be a great help

    I’d like to see DeWalt (or any manufacturer) come out with a serious cordless vacuum with real suction. Nothing on the market today can compete with corded models.

    I’d also love a cordless DeWalt biscuit joiner. Makita’s lacks power and is old technology.

    And I certainly wouldn’t mind a Dewalt cordless coffee maker.

      Yes, I would be in for a nice 12 gal. 60v Dewalt shop vac. Like a large wet and dry.
      I an interested in the 60v hepa vacuum / dust extracter though that should be out soon.
      They need to step up there game now that they’re done destroying craftsman, lol

    Another nodd on the vaccum. Honestly, the 20v vac (even with the plug in) is pretty gutless. At least give me some guts when you plug in!!!!

    A vac for the tough box.

    Having just spent over 1K in red tools, there just isn’t much as far as speciality tools in the blue line, especially when it comes to plumbing related.

    Dewalt only just came out with a propex and propress units recently, and they are all on the 20V line-. Its very far behind the “curve” as to time tested in the field.

    Was hard to go dewalt, since I was also in the 12v milwaukee line.

    The pole saw is a great idea.

    At this point any 15 amp tool can be powered by flexvolt batteries. How about something like this, or an even larger version with three flexvolt batteries?

    Maybe not this year, but soon anything that is powered by a honda gx160 or 200 engine will have a battery only version, how about a larger compressor or a 3000 psi pressure washer.

      I read somewhere that sales of belt sanders hits some sort of peak quite a number of years ago and that the tool has waned in popularity.
      I have a batch of corded ones – including a heavyweight Porter Cable “locomotive” model. Its a worm gear-chain-drive machine that is hard to kill as long as you keep the worm gear lubricated. Along with a smaller PC 360, a Dewalt DW433 smaller yet PC 371K and diminutive Bosch 1278VS – I’m probably covered.

      When I saw a Ryobi cordless on a clearance table at HD – I was tempted – but then I thought about how little I use the corded ones that I have. I also see that the Ryobi gets mixed reviews – with runtime, lack of power and belt tracking issues seeming to be the major negative comments. Maybe a flexvolt tool would be better.

      We used to use some specialist best sanders in our metal/pipe fabrication business – like a Makita 9032 and Fein’s RS 12-70 + RS 10-70. A smaller cordless 9032 might be nice as a hobbyist’s tool.

    I’d like to see a 20v quadruple hammer impact driver with 250ft/lbs of torque with 4 different modes. A recip saw with adjustable blade stroke depth, orbital action, and an adjustable shoe which all of their saws need. At least the adjustable shoe. A bigger blade circular saw similar to the Sawsquatch, Bigfoot, and Makita beam saw for cutting large nominal lumber in a single cut. 16″ sliding dual bevel compound miter saw. Universal track that can be used for all Dewalt circ saws. 20v borescope/thermal imaging tool. Still waiting on 16′ xp tape measure. A/c adapter capability for all cordless tools. Portable combination table saw/dry and wet cut tile saw with speed adjustability and a removable water reservoir pump attachment and removable router table attachment. A large capacity magazine for their 1st generation cordless framing gun that can be purchased separately. 20v Auto feed screw gun. A battery charger that can charge several (more than 8) batteries simultaneously. I had to construct my own because they don’t make one.

    I’d love to see a flexvolt belt sander. It would be super handy around the wood shop. In a previous home we had a powder room with a wood floor that I refinished and used a belt sander but had to be very careful not to run over the cord.

    I would like to see DeWALT to come up with some yellow Toughsystem tool boxes, I think the price would be expensive compared to black ones as the black ones are made of recycled plastic, but it probably would not be easy/cheap to make plastic things in yellow colour with recycled plastic. I would pay 50% more for a yellow one if the production process is more expensive for a yellow version, Or to make some of the existing black ones with yellow handle or side handles. They can make them in different colours if it does not bother them to partially give up from their yellow/black colours if it is really needed. They can make a little carrier with wheels which you can attach your Toughsystem boxes on it, similar to TSTAK one. They should make the insert foams available for all of their cordless tools which is sold separately. They should produce a 30″ x 40″ plastic sheet with 1″ thickness which can be attached to Toughsystem boxes with their yellow side latches. This would be something very basic but useful, can be used as a work bench using Toughsystem boxes as its legs.

    12V cordless handheld tile saw similar to Makita CC301DWAE with water supply bottle on it, good addition for this line. This tile cutter would be suitable for ceramic tiles only, in addition they can make a 20V version also which can cut porcelain tiles as well. And also 60V Felxvolt version of table tile saw.

    Would like to see DS200 and DS350 Toughsystem boxes as well, if they don’t make the boxes in different colours at least the size can help the users to recognise the contents of it.
    I would like to see another generation of Toughsystem cases which are longer and wider made with the same material and quality and metal latches, in different heights. Would like to see one of these cases which I can place DCS361 inside of it. I know DeWALT has one much bigger with 240 lt capacity, something between Toughsystem and that would be OK I think.
    Smaller version of Toughsystem similar to Festool SYS-3-SORT/12 or the current size of the Toughsystem cases with these type of little drawers.

    Toughsystem 60V Flexvolt vacuum cleaner and 120V Flexvolt wheeled vacuum cleaner.
    Toughsystem power station which you can charge at least 4 batteries (12V, 20V and 60V) with 4 power outlets (for Europe 110V and 240V together in the same unit, which means it is going to have a transformer as well!) with a retracted extension wire that can be stored inside the box. You would have everything related to power issues in one box.

    – 60V Flexvolt Jigsaw with variable speed
    – 20V or 60V soldering gun for plumbing
    – US/EU/JP made new line of heavy duty pro tool accessories.
    – 20V cordless drill/screwdriver just with a fixed E6.3 (1/4″) hex shank adapter similar to impact driver just not noisy as an impact driver! Makita has some products like this.

    I’m late with this one, but since they may come out with a 20V heat gun; as a suggestion, how about a chemical fogger for the 20V outdoor line? I mean a real one that heats up and vaporizes through a coil instead of just seemingly “atomizing” mist like the Ryobi. Just like the AC electric ones. If they can make 12V soldering irons I don’t see why they can’t make a heating coil, mini pump, and fan work together off 18..i mean 20V.

    I’m again, suggesting the idea of making drills more compact by excluding the clutch system. Maybe even using the space to increase speed, number of speeds, and torque. We have impacts anyways, and those seem to be turning into drills.

    Dewalt needs to start going more towards dual pack tools similar to Ridgid and Makita. Basically anything with wheels or that can sit on a stand/table.

    Hi
    Here is the updated photo of the DCW210 and you will see the battery has been positioned vertically, not horizontally as we see in this post.

      Something’s wrong there, because I have a production model sander next to me, and the battery is indeed sideways, as shown in the above images.

    It might be the European version of it or updated version as a lot of tool users (including me) were asking for a sand machine which the battery is positioned vertically, they might have listened to us. The one in the link I sent looks more like a pro tool to me. the other version looks like a DIYer tool, similar to the Stanley one.

      If I had to guess, I would say it’s a rendering of a prototype and not the final product. If it was a vertical-battery-orientation model, I would expect for a different part number, other than the DCW210 that corresponds to the horizontal-orientation model.

          It’s starting to look like Europe will get a vertical-battery version of the sander!

          Very strange.
