Many of the craftsman tools are rebranded. The LaserTrak 7 1/2 inch circ saw was made by GMC (Australia/pacrim distribution). I'm happy ewough with it, though.

Bought a drillsaw combo from Craftsman two years agao and gave them light use. the batteries are about played out now.

Harbor fright tools: Okay for light use and short term.

Black and decker: I have the 1/4 square finish sander. the dust bag isn't worth a darn, but connected to a vacuum, it's a nice sander. I like the jigsaw. Both are nice tools.

DeWalt's recip saw is nice. I like mine. As long as I get heavy duty blades (the white ones? some other company makes them) and keep away from the dewalt blades all is well.

For the next battery tools, I'll be looking at 19.2 or 24 v.

I am looking at that craftsman 10" contractors table saw and at the Delta compound miter saw (dual laser, can't remember the modele number).
