I think you did great, I know I try and convince everyone local that the Joiner and planer is the only way to go, they are both tough to beat for the price, and the way I sold myself on it, was those are one of very few tools that will actually pay you back very very quickly, and give you so many more options for wood in the process. I have to admit, I have tool envy for anyone that owns that oscilating edge/spindle sander, i want one BAD

Congrats. I'm a Ridgid shop, too, ala the Great Grey Tool Closeout of 2004. My shop, however, is grey, befitting a southerner and LOML, who is an Aggie and would NEVER tolerate that much Orange.
