    Rockwell Sawzall

    One spot last night yielded this sawzall, nothing wrong except someone had the blade in upside down and it cut the cord casing so I just taped it!! Works great! has a wood/metal switch on it, I'd never seen that before. I think these were auction items, they had tags on them. Where we picked these up there was a huge hole next to the driveway and hubby fell in it, next thing I know he's rolling around on the driveway going ''ow ow ow.'' Dude, use your flashlight!! lol. I was nice though, I helped him up!

    There were also 3 nail guns and brother is testing them right now, so far two are no good.

    Nother tool to add to the collection!!

    NA,



    I ended up having to fix a buddy's nail gun after it broke when I was using it. (I hate to borrow stuff for that reason!) But found out it was pretty simple to fix and parts are not particularly hard to get.

    So if any of the guns you have at least look half decent you might get more on eBay or CL for them than scrap, even if they need fixing.

    Jon.

    +1 with above post. There's about a dozen o-rings in nail guns and are pretty easy to replace or you should be able to find a shop to rebuild them for about $40. While it's open might as well replace them all with a kits available on Ebay.
