Highland woodworking sells the same machine with carbide cutters for the same price. Does Amazon have the same option

It doesn't look like Amazon offers the 40300HC the Highland sells. Highland's shipping for me is 37.99. They sell a pack of 10 replacement carbide cutters that fit the 40300H for 39.99 plus shipping. I'm going to buy the 40300H on Amazon, and then order replacement cutters from Highland that will be installed as needed. In time, I'll have all carbide cutters.

Hi Thelma, I didn't do any comparison shopping at physical stores. I just ordered from DrillBrush here at Amazon. I think this will link you to their store: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=bl_sr_hpc?_encoding=UTF8&field-brandtextbin;=Drillbrush&node;=3760901

Why would you spend $23 for a cutter assembly when a new unit is between $25 and $29?????? So yes you can but I think it is a bad investment. I'd much rather purchase the Teacher Pro which is a better model...and although you can't replace the cutter in the Teacher Pro it is about the same price at the School Pro.

Don't order it from Amazon. Go to Northern Tool and get free shipping. Amazon is charging about $80 to ship.

I have purchased bits from MLCS, they have good prices on 1/4" solid carbide end mills and several V cutting bits. I do not know where to buy the conical carving bit that comes with the unit, however, I know Oliver sells them.

As the others have already answered, yes, they both use the very same battery, mine came with two batteries, and the saw will go thru batteries far quicker than the drill, which lasts a very long time. I also paid $89.99 for mine over three years ago. This current price of $125 is high. Look around for a better deal OR a newer version of this older model.

you can get replacement cutters directly from Byrd Tools (Google them) regardless of where you bought your cutterhead. Really great people, too, imho.

You need to use Delta mortise/drill sets. Off brands won't fit. I had this for a few years and sold it along with all the chisels because of many problems, chisel size being one. I sold it and went to General International. Much better tool, fewer problems and more features, like a tilting head. Highly recommended by Fine Woodworking magazine. Delta used to be good but then they got bought out. The other problem this creates is that you can no longer find factory service people in the States (at least in the Midwest). I have a Delta planer, joiner, and Unisaw. I like them but can't get service. Even letters to the company president were never answered. Go with General. You will be happier. Capn John

Yeah, I bought the plans from this guy I found on the web. http://woodgears.ca/pantorouter/plans/index.html (I don't remember the price - but it's ALOT of information he gleaned from trial and error.) I guess I'm not the only guy who thinks machinery is way over priced... He and the guys on this site have all kinds of cool ideas for various woodworking tools- and in my opinion his plans are well worth every penny. Was tempted to "tip" him some more.

Today I checked at my local ACE Hardware store to compare them. They are not the same. Though similar these are in my opinion a much better quality tool than the one at Ace. The all metal pruner is super easy and efficient and comfortable to use. Well worth the price. Good Luck

all are the same if you look at the Husqvarna web site. Different sellers and prices which probably depends on when the companies placed them into their warehouse. Maybe different models from Husqvarna along the way but are they physical differences, unknown. I have one that I use when cutting trees and when running the weed trimmer. Works great.

Sorry, but I have no idea. I bought a Mac electric saw to do some one-time pruning around the yard, then dulled the chain when I hit a bolt in a piece of wood. It was quicker and not much more expensive to replace it than to have it sharpened. But if you have a Home Depot or other big-box store nearby, they should have a cross-reference guide. That's how I found mine, and the in-store price was the same as Amazon's. I just tacked mine onto another order for the sake of convenience.

As for the size difference I don't know . But I must say that I am somewhat disappointed in the durability of these blades. after making 20 or so 10 thousands removal passes on the edge of plywood I can feel very distinct ridges where the glue lines were on my new blades. I wish I could find blades that had carbide edges. The time it takes me to set a new set of blades perfectly in the machine is valuable. I would pay +/- $80.00 for a set of carbide blades.

Chop saws that can use a carbide blade seem to be specific. I wouldn't chance it even if you found one that fit

Just search Amazon - Makita BCL 180ZW - it comes up - on sale now, 5.99 instead of 8.00.

I think it's about the same, maybe less. Out of all the hardwood charcoal on Amazon that I've purchased, this is definitely the highest quality. Probably worth a try.

i'm not sure. i wouldn't think they to be different. i wish they could have provided a better visual diagram of the type cuts each bit makes. this is a nice buy considering the cost to buy separate bits and yes i did add some separate bits to my collection
