Some HF items are stone-age-quality junk, and some are reasonably well-made and very well-priced. The trick is knowing which is which. Sometimes they also have a couple of items that appear virtually

And, of course, they've got the wonderful problem that there's not any quality control. A few years ago, I bought three 4.5" angle grinders at the same time. They were on sale for some really cheap p

Thank you - I thought I was the only old coot who still called sabre saws sabre saws and jig saws jig saws. For more confusion, when they were still sabre saws, Sears sold a model with a knob on top

I was told that a scroll saw supports the blade from both ends (allowing use of very thin blades for turning sharp corners), while a jig saw only supports the blade from one end (requiring a thicker
