I had to wait a long time for my powermatic stuff as well. Part of living in the great white north i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chet Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Had to wait 8 weeks for my Incra router table and LS Super system fence. I think it was the fence itself that caused the delay. I guess they were selling fast then they could make them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cancelleri Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Waiting for tools is painful. Pug, I'm willing to bet this wait is worse than the Kapex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon_t Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Waiting for tools is hard. Waiting for Wood to dry sucks too just ask KCooper, what's it been a year and a half? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodger. Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Waiting for tools is painful. Pug, I'm willing to bet this wait is worse than the Kapex.yes, cause I have three projects on the go, and everytime I need to quickly joint a board, I need to bust out a handplane, winding sticks, a straight edge, a square, and a can of spinach.I really do like working with handplanes, but its different when you HAVE to use them for grunt work.

Brendon_t Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I feel ya bud. Until a month ago I was making due with a 24" jointer that didn't stay true. I grew to loathe milling. Now it's a breeze with the big 8" boat and I actually get a bit giddy when it spits off dead nuts straight edges.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a tough downsize! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have held onto my previous jointer until the new one arrived. Ah well. Edited August 24, 2015 by franklin pug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Waiting for tools is hard. Waiting for Wood to dry sucks too just ask KCooper, what's it been a year and a half? next week will be a year. My worst wait was about 15 years ago when my wife finally said " it's ok honey, I'm not pregnant" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
