Sears & the Reciprocating Saw!
Ok first off I am totally sold on Sears Craftsman tools!
Last year down south in Mississippi selling Christmas trees, customers started asking me if I would trim the bottom of the tree for them. Now I can't cut a piece of wood the size of a shovel handle straight with a hand saw let alone a Christmas tree. And they expect me to cut it straight and put the tree into their tree stand for them? YEAH RIGHT! THIS REDNECKS IDEA OF A CARPERTERS SAW IS A GOOD STIHL CHAIN SAW! Well not wanting to spend the money on another chain saw 500 plus miles from home I decide on getting a Sears Craftsman 19.2 battery powered reciprocating saw! Without internet I call PW and have her locate a Sears store close to me and have her locate a reciprocating saw for me. I go and pick it up! Works great! Does one heck of a job!
Come back to Springfield in January and I am at the local Sears store. Find a deal on one of those electric Professional Craftsman Reciprocating Saws! Well I purchase it and put it back! A man can never have enough tools! Or woman I should add! PW has her own set of Craftmans tools that I stay totally out of!
Well this morning decide I need to go to the farm and cut up some junk steel so I can haul it off for extra money. I get up at 4:30 am and have PW help me load the 5500 watt generator into the back of the pickup and off I head to the farms! I have a old flat bed trailer and a couple of old steel wagons that I need to haul off and I need to cut them apart so it will be easier to load onto the flatbed. Note don't have a torch if you ever seen me shoot off fireworks you would understand I am not allowed to play with any thing that has a flame!
Well I using this electric professional reciprocating saw and getting along pretty good with it. When all of a sudden bang I don't break the blade but I break the shaft that is connected to the blade. Darn there goes $100.00 plus down the drain! Well I pickup the 19.2 battery reciprocating saw and finish the job! It in fact does a better job with the same blades!
Back to Springfield, decide to go to Sears tonight and give them their professional reciprocating saw and tell them what I think about my first use of it! Bingo they just go to the shelf and hand me a new one! Wow! No other questions asked! This is even a improved model! I also handed them a socket that dad broke today and bingo they hand me a new one!
Still plan on keeping the 19.2 volt battery saw as a back up!
Sears Craftsman still stands behind their products!
