Amazon Prime Day!!!!!!

Post by ERLover »

Well Christmas in July, the other day was Amazon Prime Day, $30 off of order of $150 or more if you use your Amazon credit card which I have, and a prime member, I think, which I am.
I ordered up a BS blade, a Wixey Mini Digital height gauge, and a Kreg Miter gauge system and a MLSC router table sled. Some got here yesterday and some today. I do alot of my cross cutting on my CPMS but a fair amount on the TS also.The Kreg system has those adjustable drop downs for repetitive cut/length settings which will be nice. Reports to come.

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them. :)

Well opened up the Kreg box which was a mental challenge in itself, perfect molded plastic to hold all. Opened up the multi lingual instruction booklet, or course the first 2 pages are in fine print safety disclaimers and dos and donts.

Well assembled today, I never bought anything Incra, but this Kreg thing is top knoch!! I have some pocket screw jigs from them and always happy, but this thing is the Cats Meow!!! Incra could be too, but a bit too pricey for me, I well let be for Reible! Jacket on in the shop, maybe one of those Hybrid $9.99 Menards logs in here tonight :eek:

I have a good number of Kreg items and even more Incra items. Since Incra has some of there miter gauges with shopsmith size miter bars they are often a good choice for us owners.

The 10er I have uses the 3/4" width but a much thinner bar height wise and that is the only piece of equipment that uses that width, well a couple of router tables do but I don't mix miter gauges and router tables so I tend to forget about that.

Hope yours serves you well.

Oh yea forgot to mention that I didn't find anything I wanted on prime day so it was a waste of my time looking around. I have like 130 items on my wish list and not one of them came up as a bargain on prime day.
