For the past three years every time I walk into Woodcraft I have to look at that stupid Tormek. Never could drum up the courage to buy something that expensive that only sharpens things. I'm a smart guy, I can sharpen my tools without that fancy stuff, right? Well it appears that my laziness has taken over. With the 10% off deal and a pocket full of cash I couldn't resist any longer. Brought it home and set it in the basement. Don't know if anyone else goes through this but after a purchase like that a bit of depression sets in, don't know why. In a few weeks I will forget about the money and things will be back to normal.

Next time I'm only taking $20.

The feeling is familiar, but I can't explain it either! Perhaps the 'having' is not as satisfying or exciting as the 'wanting'? Just use the thing, and I'm sure you'll get over it!

Jim,
It's just like the sugar blues. Coming down off that wonderful candy High :D(In this case new tool high.) :D :DYou'll get over the low in a day or two and the best is yet to come with those razor sharp edges.

Can I bring my chisals and irons over please??
