Have used my PM 66 for 6-8 years, and have considered getting a SS due to the safety features . . . but have also lusted after a euro slider but generally thought too expensive (5 kids thru college and law/grad school, now into paying for weddings mode), happy enough with the 66 etc. Going to redo kitchen and make some interior doors, so I recently ordered a new PM 2700 shaper with a power feeder (paid for it but not yet delivered) and then started pricing tooling ......... OMG . . . . what an eye-opener.
Several times x12 Rod Sheridan has posted re his Hammer B3 Winner and this morning he had the audacity to post a link to the Felder-Hammer website. Foolishly I clicked on it and now I am wondering if I wouldn't be better selling the PM66 and the 2700 shaper, and instead getting a B3 Winner ., . . . . . . i can rationalize it all day long, such as better dust control, slider is safer, etc . . . . .
Next, Rod is going to get me to buy a BMW motorcycle too . . . . . definately a bad, bad influence on me . . . . and he seems like such a nice guy . . . . for one of those from up north (just kidding Rod, i really find your posts helpful and informative) . . .
Anyone previously find themselves in my situation? A month or two ago I was tempted to buy the mini max cu 300 smart someone was selling, but hesitated . . . . .
any thoughts about whether it makes more sense to go euro or do i just have upgrade-itis???
