    Another Gloat

    Went yardsaleing? yardsailing? yardsaling? anyhoo, went to some yardsales with my wife this morning. Wasn't expecting much, but found this little guy. I checked and no dust in the bag. He couldn't remember if he'd ever used it. I guess not. For 20 bucks all it has to do is work just as well as my shopvac. Advantage is it will fit under my saw. One of those monster cyclones is just too big for my shop.

          Nice! I think the bag is worth close to $20.

              The real reason you suck is because I almost scored a gloat yesterday. I missed a real nice industrial drill press by a few minutes at a garage sale.

                  Should work great on your saw, but don't try it on a sander... (the bag that comes with those will let anything smaller than a Volkswagen pass through)

                      It's official - YOU SUCK. Will it work with the planer that you recently purchased? Good score, by the way, congrats!

                          Should work on most any single tool. Good find. I have thought about one to dedicate with the wife's lathe.
