We appreciate you BZEUG!! Your the best. Your so oddball compared to the mainstream tool channels and I love everything about your video's. Ive got SO many tools from links featured on this channel.
I appreciate you trawling the depths of Amazon Japan to make us aware of all this cool stuff. You inspired me to go searching for JDM tools when I needed a new adjustable wrench. I ended up buying a 6" Lobtex and it is the best adjustable I've ever used. Thanks.
These weird tip designs look kinda like draft ideas. Like they should be testing them and figuring out which ones work and only selling them, not selling every single variation :)
You introduced me to Amazon Japan which just saved me $150 on battery power tools. Not only were they cheaper but I’m sure they’ll be higher quality. I wish I would’ve bought a Japanese hammer drill, and maybe a Japanese impact. Not sure if the JDM tools can hold American bits very well though.
I've had great luck with the Hikoki double ended torsion bits, but they only come in JIS. They last a good 6 months under frequent use staying very straight and secure with little to no damage to the head.
Question: could the issues you had with the bits be due to jis vs Philips? Japan is largely moving away from his screws so the bits might perform better in a Philips
Brilliant and interesting video which answers many of my questions relating to my recent Amazon Japan orders. Why they don't set a standard impact 1/4 chuck is beyond me, all about money I guess
@@bzeug just cut the 4mm end off of an old bit and toss it in the Chuck and then you can use us standard bits and if you want the spacer out simply pull bit out and while having Chuck pulled out one shake downwards and she will come right out
I think I saw you compare the Centrotec anvil to the JDM ones and that there's a few mm difference. Yeah? What bit holder would you suggest for a JDM Makita impact-so the holder's anvil is like the Vessel extended anvils-that can *receive* American market E6 anvils?
They fit and they lock, BUT when downforce is put on them they jam farther into the chuck until they bottom out which is past the lock detent. So I don't use E6 or C6 in the JDM Makita. I just use the JDM bits in that impact.
You need to talk to a Japanese contractor or carpenter. Assuming using Japanese bits on American screws and American style drilling may not be the best test or comparison. You can be doing stuff that is completely different than their standard construction practices.

You have the best channel.
I thought there weren’t many people interested in JDM tools, especially driver bits and bit adapters.
Love your channel

Your talking speeding is perfect for 2 times playback, not too fast, not too slow, I like it.

Yes much appreciated and helpful. I can't believe I missed this video, but I was travelling to Japan at the time you posted it 😉
I was skeptical of your use of the term “gimmick” but after watching, WOW GIMMICKS GONE MAD!
I love this! Big Vessel fan boy.
Thank you!
Thanks for the info, will pick some up when in Japan next
Thanks for the deep dive into the various features.

Japan is a very gimmick hungry market. They love things that are different or unique.

What tools? I need to save some money and buy Japanese power tools too. :)
This is most excellent and informative. I think I better start saving up for a Japanese Makita drill.
I've had great luck with the Hikoki double ended torsion bits, but they only come in JIS. They last a good 6 months under frequent use staying very straight and secure with little to no damage to the head.
They’re helpful bits of information! Thank you

Nice one! Big Fan of yours!!!

Also worth mentioning the bit spacer part that Makita sells that fits in the JDM collet to make it fit ISO bits without slop.
I want to look for that. Do you know a part number? When I search on Makita bit spacer or shim I'm not finding anything.
@@bzeug I'm pretty sure it's this one part number # 322279-6

Thanks for posting this very informative video, just what I needed as I've been contemplating buying some of these bits. ❤️💯👊

What bit holder would you suggest for a JDM Makita impact-so the holder's anvil is like the Vessel extended anvils-that can *receive* American market E6 anvils?
I have not found an adapter that does that. I think the manufactures just don't see it as something worth doing.
Good deals on Amazon Japan right now… the exchange rate is insane!
I think I'll try to turn a groove on the lathe to try out the "cushion", with an o-ring.
What’s the part number on the Japanese makita? I would love a purple makita. Awesome videos. Haven’t seen a lot of this stuff before
Links in the description area below the video. You have to click "more..." now. Here is the link.

Mine is the TD001, but the newer version of it is the TD002
@@bzeug thank you. I didn’t even think of looking in the description. My mistake
Do the C/E-6 bits work in the Japanese Makita ”chuck”?
They fit and they lock, BUT when downforce is put on them they jam farther into the chuck until they bottom out which is past the lock detent. So I don't use E6 or C6 in the JDM Makita. I just use the JDM bits in that impact.
Does the double-tip Vessel fit in the US Makita?
The Makita, (UK, DTD171) that I`ve has got a deeper hole in the middle, where the tip could sit.
Japanese double ended bits do not fit USA Makita impacts. Interesting about the UK version. I wonder why they did that.
@@bzeugUpdate: I received the double-tip Vessel from Japan and can confirm, it doesn`t lock in the UK version of Makita.
@@gezagyorfi Thank you
Is there a practical reason for reviewing and using cross bits and screws instead of torx ones?
It is a curiosity. TORX is way better.
You need to talk to a Japanese contractor or carpenter. Assuming using Japanese bits on American screws and American style drilling may not be the best test or comparison. You can be doing stuff that is completely different than their standard construction practices.
👍👍
Why not use a bit holder that can fit the US Makita and can fit Japanese bits, problem solved
The anti-wobbling ''functions'' are a real gimmick.. When force is applied it has Zero function.
Vessel does a lot of proprietary design so you have to use their tools. No likey. Not a huge fan of Vessel Tools. Koken, Wiha and Wera bits for me.
