Re: Torture Test: Recip Saw Blades
To persons concerned, this test represents a wonderfull opportunity to FULLY test a comprehensive range of BOTh types and manufacturers. This responsibility should not be taken lightly. Blades as with any "consumable" can add up to a great sum when cost is examined fully. The point was brought up regarding general longevity. Interestingly enough this aspect is to a degree at odds with the overall proffit making strategy previlant ever more so today. The proffit margin on blades and the such are multiples of what can ever be earned for ANY powertool. There is a great deal of incentive for these blades to last just long enough. I wonder at times if this may bear upon the overall quality. Speaking of cost and just think Fein and you have said it all. Hopefully having the patent expire will oscilate some sense into them. hmmm another issue at hand..... My first "sawzall" in fact a Millwalkeeeee was akin to a newborn baby in relative power compared to most available powerhouses currently. (4.7A to 15A) and yet the dang tang has not evolved alongside this beefing up of amperage.Who will be the first to offer a new heaver tang beyond those currenty available. Pleas do not forget to test blades specific to metal cutting, many of us require this use frequently as posted by one commentator cutting cast iron. For him at least there is a "new and improved" available Both Millwalkee and Lennox have Diamond blades now available.Pricy mmmmm mmmmm but superior......

It has but seemed a momoent since Norm Abram has entered into our lives. He has made a difference to all those that aspired to work and create something with nary but a few million tools and a bit of though. We will all greatly miss the great work that he has accomplished in fostering in us an ability to create works that may not of always turned out quite as perfict as on the show , but that were nonetheless beautiful to us..... The very best to you and your family sir..........
