Though not the gloat of the week by any means (congrats again Jim) this was in my foyer when I arrived home from work Monday night. LOML was kind enough to bring her in from the cold after she got home from work.

And here she is, just waiting to sink her teeth into a few door slabs this weekend :)

I've been waiting to justify this purchase for a while and since the infuse of shop funds (thanks again Santa) I've gotten to that point. Tomorrow and Friday (my weekend) I'll be trimming the bottom of two doors for my ongoing basement/shop transformation. I was able to frame both doorways out last weekend (after a little demo) and they are just waiting for the slabs. I'll probably get a little carried away and trim a few other doors around the house that are just a pinch rough to open :rolleyes:
My general impression of the shipping and quality of the tool has lived up to the others expressed here. Although a little steep, I can justify the price aspect of this tool considering the amount of work it will see in the near future (shop walls will be bead board), and the lifetime I know I will get out of it. Not to mention the precision/ease this will add to cutting down that 4x8 stock so I can use them on my Dewalt Portable TS.
Thanks for looking,
Eric
