I bought a new table saw, a good blade, block plane, spoke plane, sharpening stone and jig, router, cove and bead bits, jig saw, pull saw, drill press, Then I bought 18 foot clear cedar and some redwood, glass, epoxy, measuring cups squeegees, scissors,(had to replace my wife's after epoxyed them) brushes, sand paper, foot braces, graphite cloth(because it's cool)mold release, I gotta stop I need to go to the power tool store for something I don't know what but I'll know it when I see it!

good luck from the tool addict.
Talk to you later, my wife has some sort of intervention thing she wants me to attend. Not sure who it's for? oh well I'll help out the powerless sap.
