Systainer CONTEST ! Guess The Contents

[semenza]

I have received some entries.  [cool] Just a reminder note about the entry rules ......  To be  considered a correct answer brand and type of tool are required. A model number is not needed but it won't help or hurt your chances.

EX of entry......  "Milwaukee, reciprocating saw" would be the correct form for an entry guess. "Sawzall" would not.

Why is that ?

Milwaukee's  name for the saw is actually Sawzall its not generic. A Sawzall by definition is ONLY a Milwaukee and ONLY a reciprocating saw. Just like Kleenex is actually ONLY one particular brand of tissue. Anyone that say Sawzall for any old reciprocating saw is totally wrong  a Sawzall is an electric reciprocating saw made by Milwaukee Tools. Sawzall is even a legal trademark of the Milwaukee Electric Tool Company for their line of reciprocating saws.

Over the years the term Sawzall has become ubiquitous for any kind of reciprocating saw, Milwaukee-made or not, but it still does not make it correct.

I get your point, but technically your example is incorrect.  A better example would be that you can just say jigsaw or reciprocating saw.

For me a Sawzall will always and only be a Milwaukee reciprocating saw, because it simply is.

Nick's disqualified for being argumentative over a red tool that can't possibly fit in a Sys 2 without being dismantled into parts.  [tongue]

Nick,

I completely agree about the term Sawzall and it's usage and similarity to Kleenex, etc , etc.  I chose that as an example specifically to make a point. There is a reason that the entry guess needs to be in the form specified.  I don't want someone thinking they have submitted a correct answer only to find out that they have not because it is not in the correct and complete form. Submit  a complete guess in the contest entry form and you are good to go. I can't explain further now as it would be a give away. 

  Now as far as someone submitting an incorrect answer of Sawzall goes....... suffice to say that it is not a Milwaukee reciprocating saw or a Sawzall, the colors just don't work. And nobody has guessed either one.

Oh!  I forgot.  Send PM for entry. [eek]

 

[RONWEN]

Based on the systainer color I would lean toward a Bridge City tool however the prize couldn't be sent out for many many months...  [big grin]

That is true, I didn't say I owned the contents. I only commented because I wanted to dispel the misconception that I owned a vac clamp. And since no one has guessed vac clamp yet it would not alter anyones chances. ..... surmise what you like.

Aaaaaah, no.  The prize is not the Systainer + contents that you are guessing. The prize is a  Micro-Systainer with a surprise bit of swag.
