This Is Fantastic!!!!! (or A Royal Piece Of Sh*t)


Billy Mayes here w/ the latest piece of crap I'm peddling.

Dual Saw

I can't be that far off base, but if these couple of jokers are peddling this thing its gotta be junk, right?

Any body out there willing to admit to owning this?

My gut feeling is that its total garbage...but I still want to try it out!

There must be some early adopters who paid the 7 easy payments.

A plumber responded to that video and said the motor only lasted a week

I have the craftsmen version of that.I don't use it a lot but it does get a work out. I never use it cut wood, I got others saws for that. It cuts metal faster than a porta band. I did cut a range into litlle pieces with it. And the dishwasher did not stand a chance.

I couldn't imagine the blades would stay sharp for very long cutting metal?

I've seen the Craftsman version.

I'm wondering if that thing could cut through cast iron tubs quickly and efficiently. Be a good tool to have to deal with them.

Re: This Is Fantastic!!!!! (or A Royal Piece Of Sh*t)


"saw" it on PitchMen late last night. Right off the bat I figured the motors gotta be crap. I'm wondering if the reason the inventor used two of them to cut his way out of the aluminum diamond plate box was because the blades or motors wouldn't last? Continued to cut the car in half even though he cut through the fuel lines and leaked fuel into the studio. And is that lady with the ridiculous mopping slippers in denial or what? I think I saw them slippers on Lenos inventors convention "Sold or not sold".

Re: This Is Fantastic!!!!! (or A Royal Piece Of Sh*t)


Ha!!!!!! I saw that last night as well. Yeah the mop slippers are the dumbest idea I ever heard of. The jokers who backed her up enough to even do interest surveys are just as retarded. Generally I won't buy ANYTHING featured on an infomercial.

Got my Fein MM last month though. I'm thinking about that Rockwell jawhorse as well to be honest.

Later,

Josh
