I recently purchased a few General International tools (shaper, joiner w/mortice attachment, planer, drum sander, table saw etc.) Still building a functional shop, hopeful to post pics in my profile soon.

Hey,Terry; welcome!
"Drum sander"....*envy!*. On my most wanted list.
'Mimac' (Brian) is over in Langford. He's a really accomplished craftsman, and a generally nice guy. He'd be happy to talk shop with you; PM him if you'd like to chat.

Thanks Dan, the tools I've purchased used to belong to my neighbor and friend, I have used them multiple times over the years, and now it's up to me to maintain them. The drum sander was interesting trying to get the table tracking evenly.

I'll keep an eye out for Mimac, thanks.

Hi Tom, first thing I did was check out Sticks documents, very informative indeed.
