It never seems to add up to that much as you’re pulling the items from the shelves. 🙂

I bought over a hundred dollars of turning equipment. I got a chuck set and a drill bit and scraper. 🙁

But it’s still turning stuff 🙂

Possibly. If I remember right I went in to look at the ridgid table saw. I knew it was going on sale for black Friday and also checked out the kobalt saw as well. Both are still on sale and need to decide which one to get. The kobalt is $100 cheaper. Decisions decisions.

I would take rigid over Kobalt, I’ve looked at the kobalt said and they are nice but rigid has a better, singer feel to it.

The ridgid one at my HD looked pretty beat and not all attachments on it. I like that the kobalt has a higher rip capacity but I think the fence on the ridgid would be better.

you can never have enough clamps, I have 4 to many and still need more….lol

JerryNYMember since Jun 2015

I went to HD for a tube of caulk and ended up spending $700 once. I was trying to avoid looking at the Milwaukee rolling tool chest because I knew I wanted it and an orange apron wheeled one right in front of me and overheard they just sold one so I went right outside and grabbed one of the flatbed dolly carts from the lot and grabbed one, well it took two trips to get the top and bottom…

I just grabbed some of the Dewalt bar clamps. Couldn’t pass them up really. I’ll probably go back and grab some more tomorrow. I agree with Comp, no matter how many clamps I have, I’m always one short!

Yea I think I’ll pick up the kit with tape measure and another one of the bar clamps for that price

I may grab the 12″ clamps, but I need another tape measure like I need another hole in my head. I actually was due for a decent hot glue gun. My wife likes to borrow them for arts and crafts time and if they do happen to make it back to my garage, they don’t work right.
