Be True to Your Tool
Synopsis
Wes Davidson, the new president of Binford Tools, meets Tim after the
show and shows him a new prototype of a reciprocating saw which he wants
Tim to promote on Tool Time. When Tim takes it home and takes it apart,
he discovers that it is an inferior and bad tool. So he doesn't want to
promote it on the show, but when he and Al visit Wes, he tells Tim that
he is able to cancel the show unless Tim promotes the saw. Jill says
she will be behind Tim whatever solution he chooses. He comes up with
an idea that saves both his job and stops production of the saw. The
boys get to buy groceries for the first time and have found a good way
to save money to buy luxuries.
