    Is a gloating ok?

    Allright, the freight company called. My new Laguna TSS slider Table saw is in. Going to p/u tonight. Sadly, wont be able to start to uncrate and get in my basement until after my vacation next week. But Ill post pics as soon as I get set up.

    Sorry for the gloat, but no one else understands the anticipation and excitement of a new machine like a fellow woodworker.

    No it's Not.
    A great vacation would consist of unpacking and playing with a new toy.
    No pictures?

    I know the feeling of the pre-gloat-syndrome very well. Share your anticipation, we'll all catch the buzz.

    P.s. You can leave out the vacation shots when you finally post your pics .

    Send the family to the villa in Jamaca. A new saw is much better.

    I want to see a picture of the crate.

    Joe, We live for gloating here. I have owned the Laguna TS for years. since I live only a few miles from Laguna Tools I do go there often and drool at the newer stuff on the market.

    The customer service is great.

    Let us know how the TSS runs for ya.

    Oh and the picture police will be all over you unless you provide pics...

    Just because we gloat whenever we can, doesn't make it ok!

    But gloats without pics are an open invitation for harassment and relentless teasing!
