While other manufactures have similar "reciprocating" saws, Sawzall is the trademarked brand name of Milwaukee. The name is at risk of becoming generic like Kleenex. Long ago, Milwaukee began branding their electric drills "Hole Shooters" but that name has not become common parlance for electric drills.

@Phillippe Bastille- Black and Decker own the Dewalt Brand...a storied manufacturer that made industrial Radial Arm Saws, more often seen at lumber yards than in a home shop, but they did make smaller models for the small contractor. The company was purchased by Black and Decker and the brand name was applied to a line of small electric hand tools - drills, grinders and sanders. And Black and Decker also purchased the Dustbuster hand vacuum cleaner line and General Electric Toaster Ovens

@Phillippe Bastille- I had to look that factoid up- being unaware of the Pentair name, but familiar with the tool brands under its umbrella. It's interesting, particularly as Black and Decker was considered to be a quality tool manufacturer, that the company would be more recognized as a parent company than as a manufacturer of their own tool line. The whole tool industry has changed as more non professionals do various trade works in their homes. The price of electric tools is priced about same in dollar amounts as they were in the 1970s.

Phillippe Bastille,
Wouldn't be great if WFMU had some sort of audio trailer to intrigue and make the newcomers stay for more? If someone encouraged me to listen to WFMU and by chance Lena Zevaroni was playing I'd stay aw...

Oh Ken what a great song! The video for this one is absolutely transcendent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4xCSVl833I The chorus goes, 'At dawn... voices call after me'

People,

This title of the IC3PEAK's song means "Death No More" . I speak with authority because I finished the duolingo Russian course. (well, I finished the Chick Hatching out of the Egg level).

Avatar Ken's Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 11:31am Ken From Hyde Park:

It starts with staple guns. Then it's nail guns. Where will it all end? Won't anyone think of the CHILDREN?
  11:31am Sam:

My advice is, when you have the urge to staple, count to ten and then use a paper clip instead. You can always undo a paper clip. A staple can't be undone without leaving permanent damage to the paper.
