I purchased this saw, a Ryobi BT3000, from an estate auction for a whopping 18 dollars. No information was given as to the condition/working status of the tool at the time of purchase.

The Ryobi BT3000 makes use of an electric motor that drives two v-belt pulleys on a shaft to spin the saw blade. Unfortunately, though I did find the electronics to be operable on the saw after purchase, the two belts were missing, and seemed to have been replace with some kind of string at some point by the handy gentleman who owned it before me. There was also some problematic rust beginning to form on the lower part of the stand, so a full makeover was in order.
