See what fell off Santa's sleigh

[mshel]

Seriously, it fell over but not in Santa's sleigh. Got this today just in time for Christmas. I am just overjoyed and like a kid on Christmas morning.

This is how it looked upon receipt.


This is how it looks now.

Luckly, there was no damage but when I saw it I just about blew a gasket and the driver knew I was pi$$$$ big time. He did help me get it into the shop and stayed while I uncrated it and he even helped me set it upright so I could inspect for damage. Thank the Lord it was unscathed. Miracles do happen once in a while.

This was the last and may I repeat last of my shop tools upgrades. Won't be making any more big purchases anytime soon. Actually, I don't know what else I would even need. Anyway, I am (as the kids say) Stoked!!!

Well, Mike you know how I feel about it...I'm stoked, too!!! :eusa_danc :eusa_danc :eusa_danc

I can't wait to see it in person (good excuse to come over and "borrow" some scroll saw time :lol: ).

Did you get some blades with the saw or were they drop shipped separately? If not I can bring one by so you can play.

Congrats and the customary....YOU SUCK!!!!

That is definitely a BIG YOU SUCK. But congrats on a great upgrade that will last for years to come.

I definitively know how you feel when you saw it.

Congratulations. You will definitively enjoy it, and be amazed at the difference.

Yea Chuck,

I am hoping to get them either tomorrow or Wednesday. The guy at MM said they would be coming by UPS so I guess I will just have to wait it out. I am not liking the plug I put on it because #10 ga cord is way too big for it. I was itching to get it running so for that, it worked. Is it possible to use a twist lock type plug even if there are only 3 wires instead of 4? Are you coming this week? Scroll Saw is ready when you are.

Well Mike,
Must have been a BIG sleigh that's all I can say! It deserves a BIG YOU SUCK!:rotflm:

Hope you enjoy it!

 

[sapwood]

NOooo Mike, you got it all wrong. It was delivered properly . . . horizontal bandsaw :rolf:

Actually a big WHEW! Glad everything came out all right. It's a beaut and I know you're going to enjoy it :mrgreen:

YOU SUCK!

Mike, I used a 30A, 250V twist-loc from Lowes (Cooper L6-30), male and female. If you installed a 30A plug then the terminals should accept 10 AWG wire.

If you're talking about how the plug fits around the SJ cord outer sheath that's not a big deal so long as you snugged it up for strain relief. Those yellow twist-locs have a narrow opening for the cord.

One sweet looking saw, Mike!!! You suck!!! and I can't wait to suck like that, too :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

 

[toolferone]

Mike, nice small bandsaw you have there:lol: . Are you going to be a two B/S woodworker? I am glad it survived the fall. I had a large air compressor show up at the store 3 weeks ago. It was on it's side when the driver opened the door. I looked at him and said nope. Next one showed up 2 days later strapped to the side of the truck.
Anyway, a nice big you SUCK!​

Sad looking crate for such an expensive piece of equipment, but apparently, it withstod the impact of falling over. Great looking saw that will serve you for lots of years to come. But you still SUCK!

Merry Christmas! Rob

 

[clowman]

At least I know where my saw is now. Since it fell off of the sleigh, it was obviously headed to my house. I'll be down this weekend, to pick it up.


oh yeah.. YOU SUCK!!!

 

[jeff...]

[cskipper]

You should be stoked!

 

[zimman20]

Wow....sweeeeet. All that space on the table....my 14" Jet is jealous. ;-)

Congrats, enjoy it in good health. :icon_thum

 

[Steve D]

Nice score Mike, you'll love that once you get it dialed in.

 

[tonyps]

WOW, congrats!! That is absolutely awesome. Bandsaw is the last item on my list as well....Santa can't afford it this year though, so maybe next...
Congrats again,
Merry Christmas all.
