Mount Prospect, Ill., June 1, 2010 - In the world of power tool accessories, there is one simple truth: Better accessories mean better results. A poor bit or blade can ruin the performance of even the best tool, and a great bit or blade can improve the performance of an average tool. That's the key message veteran tradesman Joe Sainz will communicate to fellow tradesmen, dealers, DIYers and others this summer when he takes on the persona of "Joe the Pro" and begins traveling to jobsites, power tools dealerships and events all over the United States.
The Joe the Pro moniker reflects his status as a construction specialist. He has built homes, worked as a remodeler and finish carpenter. He is a union carpenter and holds a certificate in electrical mechanics. An avid woodworker, Sainz even restores antique hand tools in his spare time. He has personally experienced situations where low-quality accessories spoiled projects and ruined workdays. He has also seen situations where a great accessory saved the day.
"I've fallen into the trap of buying the cheaper accessory many times, but there's always a price to pay - the poorly-made accessory either fails in the middle of a job or doesn't last long enough to keep you out of the tool store and on the jobsite," says Sainz. "It's just not worth it, especially when there are innovative companies like Bosch producing accessories that work faster, last longer and keep the user on the job and making money."
