    I dug in my heels for a long time before purchasing a 16-32. I've had mine for about a month and now wonder how I ever got along without it!

    Bill,
    I keep dragging my feet to buy it, but I know it would be a great addition.

    I don't know what the next shop investment will be, but the one after that will likely be a good divorce lawyer

    Just kidding, LOML is pretty cool about it. In fact, I have to be the CFO (kinda scary to those who know me. She'd let me buy most anything as long as I don't intrude on her half of the garage.

    It is hard too tell what mynext tool/machine will be, but I really need to upgrade my jointer to something bigger, more powerful, and much better then my 42" bed undersized 6" under powered 1/2 horsepower Jet, old woreout 1987 jointer. I always have a hard time parting with my money for something that replaces something I already have.

    hi Chris, Well you'll never have to worry about upgrading, unless you want to get some Martins.
    I saw the Format Profi shaper. With the Aigner fence plates that fence needs two people to swing it away.
    talk to you later,
    John

    Well originally I was thinking that down the road I will upgrade to Martin! NOW after seeing their price, I am very happy where I am.

    As for the aigner fence, I received the short version, the one at felder was the longer version. It will help a little bit =). Eric also told Rudi they need to do something about the piston on the back of the machines with the aigner fence. I was busting on Eric when I seen him struggling until I gave it a try haha...that thing is HEAVY, after that I stopped busting on him haha.

    Thank you for all your help and input!

    Eternity is an awfully long time, especially toward the end.

    On the corded side my next purchase is a dust collector.The neander in me has been looking at the Veritas Medium Shoulder Plane.

    What I wish I could buy is more time to use the tools I already have.

    Cheers,

    next tool for the shop will probably a bigger DC, then either a g0555 with riser kit, or a midi-lathe. not sure at this point, will be awhile before that is in the budget.
