Got myself a scroll saw (just because!) not that I need one, but hard to pass up. Probably much better ones out there but I don't have a big need or use for one, but it and the 2 books for $40. I'm happy with it.

Then a new ROS! Again opinions say there are better ones, but when you come from nothing, it's got to be better than I had!

Life is good when there are tools involved...

I have a lot of tools that are considered second rate. The Craftsman name is all over my shop. I don't make a living with them so I don't spent top dollar for them. I take care of my tools and don't try to run them beyond their capacity. They will last me a long time.

I'm a fan of Milwaukee, don't have any of their sanders but what I do have are just fine.

Most of my "new" tools are old when I buy them for pennies on the dollar. Some of my new (actually new) tools came from HF( 23 ga pinner, 18 ga / 1/4" stapler combo, 6 N 1 framing gun, two multi tools.)
