    Joe _ I use the Husky bags as well. They fit tight around the drum. Almost too tight. They are durable enough to get the saw dust out of my shop and through the house! :) Actually, they do hold up...

    Robert / Gary - The 140 is an interesting choice. I don't think I'll be doing much prep work by hand. I have to balance getting my projects complete with the limited time in the shop.

    I second the Marples. They are a great working set with good steel. As for planes, look at used Stanleys from the early 1900's. There are a few online dealers and many available at flea markets. ...
