I saw his wife at a christmas party. 94 00:06:25,905 --> 00:06:29,441 Binford would have never made a tool like this. 95 00:06:29,442 --> 00:06:32,577 The length of the stroke isn't even half an inch. 96 00:06:32,578 --> 00:06:37,782 Well, that may be obvious to you and me, but... 97 00:06:37,783 --> 00:06:41,520 Davidson may not know that this is a bad tool. 98 00:06:41,521 --> 00:06:44,323 How could he not know this is a bad tool? 99 00:06:44,324 --> 00:06:47,893 He's been sitting behind a desk for ten years. 100 00:06:47,894 --> 00:06:51,830 You're right.

Both al and I agree. 128 00:08:32,865 --> 00:08:34,500 Is this true, al? 129 00:08:42,675 --> 00:08:46,378 I would like some tea. 130 00:08:46,379 --> 00:08:49,047 The point is I took it home last night 131 00:08:49,048 --> 00:08:50,949 And fiddled around with it. Al tried it this morning. 132 00:08:50,950 --> 00:08:52,784 The motor's really too small, wes. 133 00:08:52,785 --> 00:08:56,555 There's all those plastic parts in it. 134 00:08:56,556 --> 00:08:59,525 Do you have chamomile? 135 00:08:59,526 --> 00:09:01,826 The whole thing is cheesy and lightweight. 136 00:09:01,827 --> 00:09:05,664 We feel that the lighter weight parts make it easier to use. 137 00:09:05,665 --> 00:09:08,634 Particularly for the ladies. The ladies? 138 00:09:08,635 --> 00:09:10,235 My wife was just remarking the other night, 139 00:09:10,236 --> 00:09:12,638 "when are they gonna make a reciprocating saw for me? 140 00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:15,474 "something small you can put in a cocktail purse. Or maybe hang it like a pendant. 141 00:09:15,475 --> 00:09:17,676 Maybe some drop earrings out of it." 142 00:09:17,677 --> 00:09:21,313 With all due respect, mr. President, I... I did try it. 143 00:09:21,314 --> 00:09:25,817 And I felt that it wasn't up to binford's usually high standards. 144 00:09:25,818 --> 00:09:30,422 Al, it's a perfectly fine tool. We just found some new, 145 00:09:30,423 --> 00:09:32,791 Innovative manufacturing techniques. 146 00:09:32,792 --> 00:09:36,628 Don't you mean you found a cheaper way to make it, wes? 147 00:09:36,629 --> 00:09:38,697 All right, forget all this stuff, ok? 148 00:09:38,698 --> 00:09:42,133 The basic design is there. With modifications, we got a great tool. 149 00:09:42,134 --> 00:09:43,802 All you need is a heavier casing, 150 00:09:43,803 --> 00:09:45,671 Go from plastic to metal washers... 151 00:09:45,672 --> 00:09:48,940 Guys!
