Subject: BS: Why I don't buy Craftsman tools
I have this old Craftsman table saw and lost the nut that holds the blade on.

Craftsman designed this with a non standard thread; so I can't just go to Home depot and buy a 5/8 nut for 60cents. I know I tried them all.

So I had to buy one from Sears. But they don't stock them in the store so I had to buy one online.


Here's what it cost me.

        
NUT         1            $         7.99            $         7.99


        Item Total         $         7.99
        Shipping         $         7.99
        Sales tax         $         0.51
        Order Total         $         16.49
