Tool Giveaway: Enter for a chance to win

Makita 18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion 36V Cordless 7-1/4" Circular Saw (Model: XSH01X)

We first got a glimpse of this unique circular saw at World of Concrete Earlier this year.  Here's the gist:  It's a cordless circular saw that utilizes the already popular 18V platform.  BUT, you get more power and run-time by harnessing the power of two batteries on one cordless saw.  The performance is closer to a corded saw without the inconvenience of having to find a place to plug in the cord and work around it.  To read more about the specifics of this saw: CLICK HERE.
