14-inch Hitachi CC14SF Chop Saw

Recipient is knowledgeable regarding tools, and he was thrilled with this gift! We were thrilled with the price and the quick delivery.

This saw does the job for metal cutting but it is a little light in the base frame area and the rubber feet are rather light duty. Watch for them, they fall off fairly easy. I put some "Goop" on them to keep in place. Also arrived slightly damaged due to inadaquate packaging and the rough handling from UPS. This seems to be a popular theme with UPS as several other items they have delivered arrived damaged. It appears that perhaps they start throwing them out of the planes and/or trucks before they come to a complete halt??!! In all fairness , UPS is not the only one at fault. Companies [Hitachi, Jet, etc] need to wake up to the fact that you cannot send an item like a chop saw or a midi-lathe etc. in flimsy boxes with less than acceptable packing foam,and cardboard that is way too thin. Amazon should get on there case!
