I can't speak for the Hitachi machine but I can tell you that the Makita is a very smooth, controllable machine. I can still use my cheapy in a pinch without any real problems however. I don't know this but have been told that the more expensive of the two Harbor Freight machines is very similar to the Vector machine though with out the closed handle and less amperage. |
is the makita top heavy or does it feel equal through the whole piece??
as for the harbor freight, it's possible that the more expensive one is the 7.5 since vector is 7
i'm not a fan of the closed handle like hitachi and makita are now shown with on autogeek, etc... i like my side handle
btw... do you know where i can buy just the handle?? idk what machine it came from i just want to see a variety of handles that fits the thread
thanks for the reply btw
