I'm delighted to see that SS will be in attendence at the IWF in Atlanta come August. It's time they got back out there with the big boys and made them selves known. To me, the PP headstock is a major step up in power plants for woodworking equipment and I hope they can turn some heads at this show.

I hope it's not just for the new line of abrasives. Where did you see them listed as attending?

So Boo - Hiss! Twice.

Oh well, such is life. I LOVE my DIY PP headstock. It's made shop time much more enjoyable (oh yes, AND quiet!).

Now, do I upgrade the other one - or not? Think, think...
