Here is what I got between the 2 days...
First, the top item on the list - the Bosch barrel jigsaw:
It's awesome! I never understood why someone would pay that much for a jigsaw, until I asked someone to pay that much for a jigsaw. Thanks to many members who contributed to a thread or two to convince me. There is an edge guide / circle jig and several extra blades tucked in there.
Next up, a bowl chuck from Grizzly:
It's a step down from the one I had set my sights on before putting the jigsaw at the top of the list, but it's been tested and it works.
If you know me at all, you know there has to be a neander item in there somewhere. My new froe:
Also well tested already. I need a better club/beetle/maul; I have been whacking it with a pecan limb that is a bit light and already showing wear.
A power tool accessory that is geared toward hand tools:
A knife sharpener attachment for my WorkSharp. It comes with 3 belts, one that shapes, one that sharpens and one that hones. This one comes has major brownie point potential - besides wood carving knives, it also does a bang up job on kitchen knives.
This last one is kinda boring:
The big bits (Ship Auger Set) that Sears put on sale a little while back.
A good hauliday!
