Called Jay at my local Woodcraft to find out if the Earlex sale was still going on. I was actually wondering about the current bundle where you get two needle/tips, 1.5 and 2.0 mm. I believe that he was thinking about the recent Woodcraft sale and said the sale was over but he'd give it to me at that price! I'm pretty sure that $319 sale price was just the regular set with one needle. I walked out with the unit (with both needles) and a cleaning kit for about $360 including sales tax.
I can't say enough good things about our local Woodcraft. I'm bad with names, so I can't iterate them here, but the three guys and lady I deal with there regularly are all knowledgeable and we usually end up swapping "war" stories. Jay, the manager, always seems interested in whatever old piece of iron I'm currently lusting after or trying to refurbish.
I don't have a ton of money lying around, but I try to throw my meager business to them whenever I can.
I've never really thought about Woodcraft as being a place for bargains, but that Earlex and especially all those hinges I bought for shop cabinets were the best prices I could find! The hinges were on clearance, and i had to order them from the website, but I think that still counts <g>
Looking forward to spraying some shellac with this new rig. From all I've read, I have high expectations.
