Home Depot had DeWalt Recip Saws on sale and I needed one for some little things at Susan's new office.

This picture was supposed to be a reminder to wear proper eye protection but I think its a better reminder of why its not smart to piss off susan... she has access to large construction tools.

With all the tools I've been picking up, I'm almost in need of an intervention at this point...



Almost.

Ahh one of the most versatile tools you can get. Will come in handy if you ever do some deconstruction. You are definitely starting to rack up a nice tool collection. Now that I have a garage to store all my tools I am going to start expanding my collection as well.

Got mine to remove my Control Arm bushings, but it also comes in handy for trimming the Christmas tree trunk to get it into the base container... Nice pickup.

Tony, you can never have enough tools... You will have them for the rest of your life, and you WILL use them.

yeeah... that's just because you are a nerd.

I work in the computer industry. I have one computer. It was 500 bucks from Dell and I will probably use it until it dies like every other machine I get. :D

Corded Tony? Why not get yourself one of the 18V or 36V combo packs with the Swazall already in it.

We've gone over this...

I don't like batteries for saws and there isn't anywhere I'd use this where an extension cord isn't available or even where it would be cumbersome.

I am the same way. Any power tool that I know will last many years I try to stay with a cord. Batteries are nice but they don't have the power and longevity of the corded version.
