KnarlyCarl Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I too have been looking at that sander, I need a belt sander and will probably get the Ridgid as well for all I use it for. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk I was in the same boat. For what I need this is perfect. I really don't have much need for the big units. I used it a little tonight. The dust collection wasn't as good as I had expected, but then again I didn't expect the 90% dust collection that I have heard was claimed. I also was just using the bag. I'll try it with the vac hooked up tomorrow if I get a chance. It did a really nice job sanding though. I would definitely buy it again just after the little I have used it.

ChrisK Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I've kind of been quiet in the new tools are a however I have three new toys. One, is en route, a Lie Nielsen low angle jack rabbet plane. The other two, a kit for a Moxon vise and http://www.leevalley.com/us/wood/page.aspx?p=69788&cat=1,41182 came in today. I'll post some pics as I'm taking off for Florida in a couple of days and this week has been hectic but the cabinet I am building is going to be getting some up close and personal "me" time with these new tools. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Nope Kruton, currently have the Lie Nielsen low angle block plane and the bronze beading tool. I posted some pics on my Woodshop blog of some hand made beading I made for my wife and her tack trunk that I'm building. I'll have three Lie Nielsen's! Plus two Veritas now, the other being the bullnose plane. I'm enjoying the hand tool end of things but I'm a total novice so I'm learning a lot but each of these planes has a very specific use for me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeInCtown Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Bought the new ONE-KEY kit from Home Depot and opted for the Fuel circular saw as my free tool. There is definitely a learning curve for setting things up. In fact it will likely take me several jobs/projects before I figure out if I want to increase speed or torque with the impact beyond what I've done already. The drill has a ton of customization available. Not only do you get the usual 3 modes for the hammer/drill/drive but 4 ONE-KEY modes that you can use to customize with both high and low speed. So if you have a certain size hole saw or self feed drill bit, you can customize a one key selection for that individual bit. The sad part is that a custom setting done on the tool from my phone and saved, does not get saved into the cloud where other info does, like photos and S/N. This means when I log in from my tablet, I need to save and name the profiles all over again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Yellow Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Ordered myself a DCE089D1G green 360 laser with an extra battery. I like my DW089, but having 360 makes life a whole lot easier when doing layout which I'm currently doing. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
