    Some of these are just strange...how does one release Skilsaws into the wild I wonder.

    The guy who is all right can probably tell you since he was likely in the way.

      Retract the blade guard and duct tape it. Squeeze the trigger and duct tape it. Plug it in and let er rip.

      Or just toss them out the door, but the first way is more fun.

      The chief cause of failure in this life is giving up what you want most for what you want at the moment.

        Even more fun if it is a cordless saw.

          Why am I having this image that the saws say Binford on them.

            Nah, a Binford would have a 16" blade and a 10 HP Briggs & Stratton engine for MORE POWER!!!
