great tool:
This is a great tool! I use it for cutting PVC, conduit, small steel shapes, aluminum shapes, wood, rigid vinyl, and others. It's also the best pruning tool I've ever owned. An excellent buy!
Used it for years:
This is the same tool I've used for my business for many years. The original cost was about twice as much. This is my third in about 11 years.
There are times when it has saved me a lot of time.
has old style battery:
Was dissapointed that saw had old style battery.Don't know why,but date of manufacture should tell something.Four years old ,but new !!!! On the plus side-easy to change battery- have bad hands. The 18 volt battery case takes 2 of us to change. Have 2 drills ,flashlite and now replacement saw.
