The Results Are Coming!

Hey Guys,


Back when we did our last Head to Head with 18V Recip saws, many people asked for a mini H2H between the high-capacity units. Well, we're compiling the results and will have them available hopefully in the next few weeks. They take an incredibly long time to plan, setup, execute, and compile. Thank you for your continued patience. There is no question though, all three saws are beasts.

In other news, Christmas is just 19 days away. Do you have all your gifts squared away? Maybe you're the hard one to buy for. If you need some ideas, check out the Tools on Tap 12 days of Christmas videos from last year. Maybe "accidentally" send your loved one a link to the video with that little something you're looking for. The whole guide is our first article below.

What's great about this one though is its all magnesium construction and long proven worm-drive gear train. While this isn't an everyday use tool for most contractors, when you need 6-1/4" depth of cut, Skilsaw has your back.
