Eric. 8814 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 It's only the time factor that prevents me building shop furniture...I've built my share. I have so little shop time, sometimes I just can't justify it. And Gladiators are cool. And not too expensive when purchased on sale. AND there's enough plywood in my shop already...it could use a little change of scenery here and there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Eric. 8814 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'm enrolled in their rewards program so I get free shipping. That shipping cost should have been revealed during checkout. I would definitely return. Link to post Share on other sites
Tpt life 2775 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I was not worried. The price plus shipping was $1.50 per if it were truly ten blades. Link to post Share on other sites

Eric. 8814 Posted November 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Good price on a decent vac if anyone is looking for a second or third for dedicated use like SCMS collection or similar. Deal of the day on AZ...ends in 11 hours at the time of this posting, so hurry if you want it.

Beechwood Chip 568 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm looking at this one, because it has a detachable blower for blowing the dust out of my shop. Same price, same size, slightly less power, slightly better Amazon rating. Is there something I'm missing? Link to post Share on other sites
Eric. 8814 Posted November 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's a brand I've never heard of but that doesn't necessarily mean it's crap. Has good reviews but you have to assume most people use a shop-vac in ways that don't push their limits like we woodworkers do. Only other factor - if MSRP actually means anything - the yellow one is a much better deal because it retails at $220 and the blue one retails at $130...if MSRP means anything. I'll leave that up to you to decide. Link to post Share on other sites

Beechwood Chip 568 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I bought those around a year ago. Worked great - until the return period was past. Then, nothing but dead air. Now, they work for a few days, then stop. Link to post Share on other sites
Eric. 8814 Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Dead air...for FM or MP3, too? I'll likely be on MP3 most of the time. Radio stations straight up suck in StL. I had some AZ reward points so I ended up paying about three bucks for them. Link to post Share on other sites
Beechwood Chip 568 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Dead air for audio cable input - I think for FM, too. Let me check... completely dead for AM, FM, and audio cable. Link to post Share on other sites
