Haven't posted in a while, but I'm still excited about my recent tool purchase at Lowes. I walked in to buy an electrical item and went to the tool section as usual to look for clearance items. There hiding on a low shelf was a Foredom grinding kit, model 2276. I noticed when our Lowes opened up the had about 3 in stock retailing for $239.00. This was the last one, still shrink wrapped and marked CLEARANCE $59.00 :D . Couldn't believe my eyes. The cashier upon scanning the item to make sure I wasn't dreaming said "59 bucks sir, do you want to pick it up??" emphatically I replied "sure".

Thanks as always.

Excellent find! I logged a lot of hours on a Foredom, and they are good tools.
