Well, it really doesn't matter if Hitachi and Metabo are compatible or not, this is what I ended up getting: DEWALT Saw Thanks all for your suggestions. How did I do?

What should I be looking out for? The saw I have my eyes on comes with two batteries. Are these good?

So, if this is the saw I want, DeWalt DCS578B, and I want to get it as a set, will it be significantly discounted during Black Friday? It's currently around $339 at HomeDepot and most other places.

I think this one is more appropriate (it rates 7.25" saws):

Shoot. Ok.

Which saw do you have?

Isn't that what the saw I posted about has?

So, This DeWalt goes for $329 at my local Lowe’s. is that a good price?

I don't "do jobs" outside...

I understand, but, as I said in my response (post #3) to your post, I only have a hand saw. I don't have any electric saws which this would require, so I need to overlap it. I have no other choice.

Okay. I went to HomeDepot and bought the plywood, caulk, caulk gun, and screws. I'm pretty sure I bought these screws: Tapcon Now I'm thinking, do I need a special kind of drill bit to drill into stucco? Remember, these screws need to go through the plywood (1/2"), stucco (~3/4"), and into a...

WHOA! Well, all the patching work is temporary. The 4 small holes, both holes under the windows, and the main opening below the 4 small holes. Nothing about this is permanent. The main area that I want to cover is under the 4 small holes you see in the third picture. It is about 10' long and...
