Was out of town this weekend and spent a few hours in Rockler and Woodcraft...ouch!!! That hurt the pocket book.
I did refrain from buying a Leigh D4 jig, both stores talked me out of it, since I really only do drawers. So I'm still in the market for a dovetail jig.
I also almost bought a Festool 1400 router and vac combo. I just didn't think that would go over with my wife very well, as she had to drive around the towns with the kids while I shopped. If anyone is in the market and hasn't seen one in person, I was extremely impressed with the circular saw/guide rail system, that is very slick. The Festool 3HP router is very big, seemed a lot bigger than my M12V.
I also got a few Sorby chisels, those things out of the box (or plastic) are alsmost sharp enough to shave with.
Anyway, had a good time, bought lots of stuff. Hopefully I won't get my fingers stuck together with the 2P10!
