Right off the bat we’re going to say we are not going to include certain items (which could be wildly successful Christmas gifts) without knowing if they will be in-stock, as we can’t in good faith get you pumped up without actually seeing it on the shelf today. We have learned not to trust manufacturer estimates on product launches. We will do a follow up in early/mid December for those last minute tools that will hopefully come in soon, so stay posted. Items we are keeping our eyes on: Bosch MRC23 Routers, M12 Oscillating Tools, M12 Heated Jackets, M28 Hammer Drills, among others.
We will also be featuring 12 days of Bits & Blades Give Aways, perfect for stocking stuff gift ideas, coming November 29th – December 10th. Also keep in mind Ohio Power Tool is offering Free Shipping until the end of the year on most: Bosch – Dremel – Rotozip – CST/Berger.
