So i picked up a part time job at sears, because the housing market has tanked here obviously. I have two houses sitting on the market now and before i run my accounts down empty or put myself in more debt starting another project, i opted for some extra definite income and at 14/hr its not too bad. Anyway, 200 feet from the store is the convention/civic center and they are having a 4 day Woodcraft Supply show. I didnt even know about it and had it not been for the lady who needed super glue, of all things, to come over and tell me about it. Jokingly i said, be sure to send me the demo tools when youre done, and she replied....."handheld power tools? whatcha want. cant touch the stationary's". i wish she were serious.
i wont be able to make it over to the show because of work and more work.
man my luck.

Have you looked into the employee discount program @ Sears? They carry some name brand stationary tools online & you might be able to better the price.
