Bob's only checking in every once in awhile...or maybe he's looking in everyday and only answering once in a blue one. Know that right now the products to be are being developed and designed (final stages) and that no anouncements will be made until the designs are finalized and signed off on. This will include of course, new advertisements (one would hope) like Ridgid used to have.

Guys: I read this forum everyday - I post when I think I can help out. Actually, some of the people who regularly post here are exceptionally knowledgeable and give very, very good advice. All I can say is "hang in there" for a little longer. Thanks!

I predict the same type line up DW had when they debuted their tools. Lot's of cordless tools and a much more varied line up than Ridgid has ever had. As far as stationary tools, I doubt we'll see many new things in that area. The newest HD in Dallas doesn't have any stationary tools in it.

How about 1HP BS14**, with fence add-on...similar product to compete with Grizzly's G0555? Judging by their redesign of the 3600 series TS, this would be my guess (and hope smile.gif

i heard it was a new type of sawblade.....
one that has no teeth,just a really sharp edge.
it slices thru the wood instead of "chipping" hence no sawdust !!!!! ever see dusty bread??
i rest my case !!! :)

Found at BT3Central.com:
"I saw a Rigid cordless circular saw at a hotel where Ryobi is having a sales meeting. Does Ryobi now own Rigid? Anyone know?" Link:
