    Finally finding videos that give honest review on tools i sell at harbor frieght i know they are not top end but i stand by them. Im a single dad i cant afford to buy and test every product i wish i could im a salesmen for my customer not the company. And i dont get upset when you guys truly test product and do review saying this is the bad i found and the good i found and say for price its amazing or this product isnt worth it. Cuz everyone sells bad products and the more a company worker know the better chance we can fix it to make it better for you. I hope you do more reviews for harbor on tools i dont own i try to get many reviews on the tools to get a better idea on it to sell or have my customers avoid. I also worked for lowes and we had dewalt flex bosch and craftman power tools. And the tool i always start with unless i know your heavy contractors was craftsman. The 200 for 2 small batteries charger and 5 tools plus flash light i sold a couple daily cuz i did own and use them and told them i have used them for this and that and they hold up plus the batteries are fraction of price and most came back in thanking me for selling them the craftsman cuz it saved them money and did the jobs with no issues. I look at a customer as i do my self when shopping this day and age money is tight and people dont need to shunned cuz everyone is saying you have to but the high price tools to do a job or being pushed to buy expensive tools. I start lower priced tools for those reasons why buy super car when your never going to open up the car and only drive in town on dirt roads alot. Would you rather blow your wallet on 500000 car that is fast but not safe cant haul your family basic tune up is 10000 or buy a car that is safe roomy for the whole family most will take the basic car cuz its more than enough for them. So again thank you and hope to see more of your reviews and ill talk to my managers to bring up your concerns on this tool to see what they can change

      WoW! Thanks for the amazing reply! I too try to save money by doing my own projects and use tools that doesn’t cost an arm and leg! A lot of my videos use the least expensive items and I “Usually” get the same results. Sometimes you do get what you pay for though. Thanks again and stay awesome bud!!!

      Stephen! Hey man! I love mine but im gunna suggest that you open the box and check the joint where the plate connects to the base. We bought one a few days ago for my father-in-law and the Metal was broke at the joint. When we returned it... a second one was broke as well! The employees were very helpful but shocked that 2 in a row were busted at the same spot!

    I dont know if you know or not but woodcrafters has a kinda sand belt attachments that fit like a blade on pinned saw blades,May help you out. check it out. also, I had problems with the blowing off the wood , so I hooked a fishtank pump on.. works great:-) Hope this is valuable info for you.

    I know this was 6 yrs ago but I just purchased that saw on clearance and 2 screws are broken off so I can't move the safety plate down and no leaver for it or hose. How do I get the screws out and do I need the hose?

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  Před 9 dny

      If they’re broken off you may need to drill them out and retap the holes. If it was clearance I’m assuming it’s not returnable. That kinda sucks!

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  Před 2 lety

      To do so you would use a small drill bit and drill a small hole, detach the blade and feed it through and reattach blade, once your done… detach the blade and remove the piece. Hope that helps!!! Thanks for watching!
