Santa (clevery disguised as my girlfriend) came a day late last night and
brought me a Craftsman 4pc 19.2V cordless set. It comes with a 5 1/2" Skill
Saw, 1/2" drive drill, Sawzall, flourescent lamp, two batteries, a charger,
and a tote bag big enough for it all.

ortable+Power+Tools&subcat=Combo+Kits&pid=00911404000


All ready saved me a few hours today at work. I was able to keep the
skillsaw with me up on the scaffolding, which allowed me to cut the siding
in the garage and make the small trims up on the scaffolding instead of
venturing through the snow back to the garage! Not to mention lightweight
compared to the boss's big Bosch skillsaw. It certainly doesn't have the
muscle of the plug-in saw, but it is really handy for trim cuts!

If anyone is interested, I'll re-post in a few months and let you guys know
how everything is holding up.

Carl.

The small battery circular saws are very handy indeed. The down side of
battery powered tools is the price of replacement batteries! For a instance
for a 12 Volt battery for a DeWalt drill,  circular saw and a flashlight is
$59!!! I bought a new drill, not Dewalt, with two 19 volts batteries for
$39.

Home Depot's Rigid brand of battery powered tools have a lifetime warranty
on the batteries.

I think I said this once before...
I LOVE Ridgid tools!

*grin*

I got a new palm sander just before Christmas. My excuse was . umm...
I forget, but I got it and it workd GREAT!
Uses the velcro backed paper. At first I thought that was kind of a hokey
idea but I am warming to it more and more.

Jo,

   That is indeed a concern of mine. Santa, however, is one step ahead of
me. She bought the two-year unlimited warranty, covering even the batteries.
