Good advise, I took it back to the BORG.
Went to my local toolhouse ( Where I should
have gone in first place). Put hands on to test
Bosch, PC, Dewalt. Liked e'm all. Bought the PC 3x21.
(on sale) Thanks for all the help/advise.
what model number?

If it makes you feel any better, the Craftsman is probably made by Ryobi.
Does the Ryobi not turn at all for 2 seconds?
