Nice Surprise!

I went to the Woodcraft sale on Saturday and walked away with a mere 1 roll of edge banding, but I did register for their giveaway. Today I received a call from Ray who informed me I had won a ROS!Went in this evening and tried to convince Robin that it was the PM 2000 I won, but he didn't buy it! Anyway, here's a pic of my new Porter Cable ROS!





Many thanks to Woodcraft for the prize!!!

Re: Nice Surprise!

So it wasn't just a scam to get my mailing address!

Makes "Monday" not seem so bad, eh?

Nice score! Now you have to make something that needs sandin'.

I figured they already had my mailing address!!

Always have something to sand! Nice thing is I have an older ROS, so now I can have a different grit pre-loaded on each one!

BTW, good seeing you Sat!

I won a sharpening kit at the Raleigh WC in March and that was cool, but yours is much cooler! You do SUCK.
