Uh-Oh! Button competition:) What workstand is that Brady? How you going to rig Indexer for easy on/off? How are you going to rig for vacuum? How are you going to rig spoilboard for full work surface use? ????????????????? THIS is interesting! 'Bout time!:)

Actually Russ, you would think it would be all hum-drum by now, but I am STOKED! :D

I've got all kinds of neat things planned with this little honey. I already swapped out the chuck on the indexer...haven't even turned it on yet!

Yo Steve - you writing a book or what? You're a strange boy sometimes...:p

Scott - you didn't get a stand with yours? They include them free now. I think they used to charge for them if you ordered your tool before last August. Naw, just kidding. I slapped that together in a 1/2hr after raiding my SB used parts bin. The legs are off an old PRT; it's tied together with 2x lumber & has a 1" MDO top on it, 36" square. It's really stout. It might be a little on the high side, but we'll see after I mess with it. To answer the rest of your questions...I DON'T KNOW YET!!! Let me enjoy the thing for a day or two!!! :D

Brady,

Hope you get it running before ShopBot Support closes...

nothing sadder than a boy with a Christmas toy that does not work.

No worries...I have everyone's cell number. LOL!

Scott - You sure know how to bust a guy's buttons :p

I've been running around all day doing 'elf work'...I haven't even had time to even take a peek at it today :( I am planning on lots of playing after Christmas - so that'll be good.
