I can sorta understand the rage, but I think if I would have bought the 6.5" I would have been okay with buying the second one. But I an a bit of a tool hoarder...

Heck, I'd order one of each, but Dan and Eric discriminate against tall, fat guys and don't offer the shirts in 3XL for us REAL men... <laughing hysterically>

The other stuff is cool and all, but what I REALLY want is a dozen or so TIA stickers!

I hate you.... I mean, congratulations! You da man!

Ragged OldFlag John R. Cash I walked through a county courthouse square On a park bench, an old man was sittin' there. I said, "Your old court house is kinda run down, He said, "Naw, it'll do for our little town". I said, "Your old flag pole is leaned a little bit, And that's a ragged old flag you got hangin' on it". He said, "Have a seat", and I sat down, "Is this the first time you've been to our little town" I said, "I think it is" He said "I don't like to brag, but we're kinda proud of That Ragged Old Flag "You see, we got a little hole in that flag there, When Washington took it across the Delaware. and It got powder burned the night Francis Scott Key sat watching it, writing "Say Can You See" It got a rip in New Orleans, with Packingham & Jackson tugging at its seams. and It almost fell at the Alamo beside the Texas flag, But she waved on though. She got cut with a sword at Chancellorsville, And she got cut again at Shiloh Hill. There was Robert E. Lee and Beauregard and Bragg, And the south wind blew hard on That Ragged Old Flag "On Flanders Field in World War I, She got a big hole from a Bertha Gun, She turned blood red in World War II She hung limp, and low, a time or two, She was in Korea, Vietnam, She went where she was sent by her Uncle Sam. She waved from our ships upon the briny foam and now they've about quit wavin' back here at home in her own good land here She's been abused, She's been burned, dishonored, denied an' refused, And the government for which she stands Has been scandalized throughout out the land. And she's getting thread bare, and she's wearin' thin, But she's in good shape, for the shape she's in. Cause she's been through the fire before and i believe she can take a whole lot more. "So we raise her up every morning And we bring her down slow every night, We don't let her touch the ground, And we fold her up right. On second thought I *do* like to brag Cause I'm mighty proud of That Ragged Old Flag"

Pretty sure I wouldn't be swinging my hair like that around that angle grinder...

Yeah, probably. But anybody want to place bets on whether that will happen? LOL

So going slightly OT, but I bought a Bosch ROS20VSC kit, and after looking around the innerwebs, I see that Bosch also makes a ROS20VSK that comes with a hard case, rather than a bag. Does anybody know where I can get the case? Assuming it's not 50% of the cost of the sander, of course...

Man, sorry to see that. Good news is, chicks dig scars.

I don't own one (yet...) but this is pure tool porn at it's finest... http://www.nepros.net/images/product_pics/nwm-250.jpg

That would be fun to play with... for about a half hour. After that my pseudo-ADD would kick in. Congrats on the 2k posts. I'm right behind you, coming up in 200. LOL

You obviously need two, a small, quiet Rolair portable, and a big powerful permanently mounted rig in the shop garage, something North of 5 HP and 60 gallons. Congrats, man!

I do not need another battery platform I do not need another battery platform I do not need another battery platform Damnit!

Just becoming? Hearing marketing types who stress brand over a quality product annoy the crap out of me.

Any idea what trailer you might be looking for in the future? Looks like a pretty cool setup. Any idea what it weighs?

Oh, I agree. I guess my point is that I'm enough of a hack that I think the Festool stuff would be a waste for me. And I love me some Fein!

I'm curious how this thing will compare with the new Fein that's supposed to be coming out this year. Having never used any Festool, I have a real hard time justifying the money to get into the party, but you guys keep talking about them...

I never thought that the deal CPO had on Milwaukee tools ($20 off) was worth the thought of somebody else pawing at my tools before I got them... but then I'm a bit of a germophobe and a bit OCD...

Enjoying the tools you won't be able to buy? Man I'm a jerk.

I think that they want to blow out the 250 watt MM. I read on GJ a while back that Fein was coming out with a 350 watt version (which saves me from having to shell out the cash for a Supercut, those things are Festool money!).

If I was working right now, I'd but a couple of these... http://www.amazonsupply.com/dp/B002NU6G8A?ref_=sr_1_3_txt&filterBy.power_source_browse-bin=2380555011&filterBy.brandtextbin=Fein

Cool, man! I still want to get to the point where I have enough of their tools that Fein uses one of my pics on their FB page...

Pics, man, pics! Us tool degenerates need out new tool porn!

Sets # 3325 and 3327

I have the 3/8" SAE 'Master' set with shallow/standard and deep sockets with a universal joint and the SAE mid-length socket set. They seem well made, but I can't say I've used them that much or that my M12 impact wrench will really give them much of a test...
