Not sure what it is. I have seen it in the store but have never seen it work.

I saw this on the the website about a month or 2 ago. Been waiting for Loring to write a review on it

Basically it's a CNC wood carver. You hook up a computer to it, layout some kind of design on the computer. This things will carve / route / cut / etc. the design in the wood.

Looks like some kind of cnc mill.....router bits that are controlled by the computer in three dimensions......you could create all kinds of things.

A friend of mine built a cnc mill a few years ago. We were using it to carve out panels for a flight simulator cockpit. Like all the backlit panels you see in a modern airliner cockpit. You could carve out the rough shape as well as carve the lettering into it just deep enough to get through the Boeing brown paint so the light would shine through for the white letters on the panels.

Expensive toy...you'd really have to have a need in mind for something like that !

Anybody know if the drill will work with the 18v Ryobi One battery? I know its the same drill, but am not sure if the batteries are compatable.

Highly unlikely...although my Ryobi 18V batteries power my Craftsman 14.4v flashlight. Don't "lock" into place though.

Wouldn't it be nice to make a living from making sawdust.......

I might have to get those screwdrivers...

Anyone know if the 19.2v drill/driver is worth the trouble?
Price seems right if the tool and battery would hold up.

I'm guessing it is of same quality or better than my 18V model, which is a great drill. Plenty of power, battery seems to last forever. I'd buy it if I really needed a 4th drill ...

My only complaint is that I've not found a cordless that has as nice a chuck as my DeWalt corded drill. It has what I'd refer to as a "ratcheting chuck" that tightens very easily, and then slips when it is tight enough. Most of the other keyless chucks I've used are hard to really tighten, without almost tearing up your fingers from trying to get a good grip on the chuck.
