    I still have concerns about the Lie-Nielson tote height and, realistically, I really don't think I need a No. 8 for what I need to do. The Veritas No. 7 will work just fine, so Tony can have the No....

    Lie-Nielson No. 8 Jointer plane question

    Does anyone have a No. 8 who also has a smaller Lie-Nielson plane? I have a question on the tote handle size. It's hard to tell in the product photos, but it appears that the No. 8 handle might be...

    The DeWalt actually does not perform as well as other shop vacs and dust extractors, but it is very quiet. The Fein is a middle-of-the-road. The Festool is the best because of constant suction...

    FYI, a larger 1-1/2HP dust collector will do better on the tablesaw and planer. However, it will still be really crappy on the miter saw. One of the dust extractor / vacuums will do best on the...

    If you had to choose between only these two options, go for the 1HP upright. That 1/2HP has a very tiny 6" impeller and it's not going to do much.

    Did you see this one?

    It is not cheap, but not obnoxiously expensive like the other one (they are asking for $795 and will never sell it).
