chadlanthier Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Wow that's an awesome deal. I have the rigid and pay $250 for it. You will love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 That's a steal of a deal for 100 bucks. It sucks i never find good tool deals around here. Everyone thinks their tool is a gold plated special edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicholasShetley Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 The sandpaper alone was probably that much. You got a heck of a deal Comp. I feel your pain DR, the only decent deal I have seen was a lightly used snap-on mg725 1/2 impact for 250 at a pawn shop. It is normally 490 for full price. Other than that all of the tools that they sell are worn out and they usually want about %80 of what a new one is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comp56 Posted July 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 So do you work a lot with wood there Comp? Cause I think working with wood is a lot easier then working with metal. And I like me some sanded wood, smooth as glass kind of feel when your done.hey proto, well everyone has an opinion........I work with a lot of wood yes but for 33 years I worked with metal, for the first 7 years as a machinist then I moved into fabrication as an engineer.....trust me when I say I have been involved with both wood and metal....depending on what you are doing there is no easy with either of them.. if your just cutting a 2 x4 with a circular saw or building fine furniture or cutting a piece of angle iron with a band saw or building a 900 foot 38 ton conveyor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WigWagWorkshop Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 I been trying to design a custom sanding station for my workshop, I do a lot of Scroll Saw work and use a large variety of sanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaglosrevival Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Oh wow that's a good deal. I don't think I've seen any spinal sander under 200. Even at the flea market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
