What's the point to this thread?
What are you trying to achieve by posting? You bought a cheap power tool, it was broken, you took it back, they replaced it for you.
If you're going to buy the cheapest power tools you can, then you can only expect that they'll be the first to break.
A three year warranty on what is probably the cheapest replicating saw you can buy at bunnings, sounds like quite a reasonable deal to me.
If you want something that'll last you 5 plus years buy something better than Ozito or Ryobi.
I had an Ozito sander that lasted quite a while, but vibrated so harshly I thought my elbows would come apart. When it died I replaced it with a Makita and was shocked at how smooth and comfortable it was to use. I only Buy Makita and Bosch Blue now. Beautiful tools.
Education.
The "Spanner" of the left, is made from "special steel". When they are tapped together, they make music. I found a box, somewhere secret, im going to clean it out. :).
The spanner on the left, and the middle one are worth hanging onto.
Ditch the one on the right - its one of those dodgy metric thingo's, and they will never be much good for anything.
planned obsolescence type stuff.
Has the spanner in the middle been welded? What are those strange numbers... looks like fractions???
i cleaned the box, at the store.
the best ones, on right. "special steel", Germany, imperial, it does not rust, and nice ring. it is almost 12 and 14?, middle. i broke the second one, straightening.
the screw driver is custom.
the others are all metric, best being the large, heaviest, in the middle. no rust. and nice ring. they are drop forge.
i am still missing a 16 metric.
the chrome planted, make a dull, out of tune sound. though the largest is good metal, sounds ok.
little, to no ware, or rust. the top not so good.
the new stuff, is cobalt. the drill bit, titanium plated, from bunnings. cobalt is best, they say titanium is for high speed.
Mark _australia,

I have been trying to build a fence also, with Ryobi. So far, i have snapped 5, drill bits, scam, "pro series", and bent a chissel. They gave me an exchanged. The drill bits, have "dye" to look like titanium coating, and fake cobalt core. I learnt, Brute, champion platinum bits are best. My drill, is weak, bits always fall outs, and they are round at the end, omg. If i try too hard, it says, "malfunction", and i have to re set.
I emailed Ryobi. Patron. I gave them schematics, for a tool, im not sure if they will make. Also, exchange, able, motors.
