What Did You Buy Today?

I found this really great trepanning tool on eBay, $50. It came with 10 good looking inserts and looks like a high quality part. It's a 1" shank, won't fit smaller lathes. It covers 30mm to 50mm diameter face grooves, but it looks like with a little grinding, the range could be expanded some.

Very Nice John, I have an Evalution saw like that, and it works well. I don't have a table like that though.

My dad built a really nice table for my abrasive saw (which I will rebuild and keep for the gnarly stuff) that has too small of a base to use with the Evolution saw, so I went ahead and bought the turn-key table at the same time as the saw. It's stout and it folds, not bad! Plus having supports on the table means I have a second roller stand free for longer stock. I did feel funny about buying what I can build, but time and material put in is time and material diverted from something else at the moment. I guess I'm getting old when my paychecks are bigger than my energy level and available free time.
 
Stopped by harbor freight, I needed another light above my bench. One of the 4ft double leds (27$) was in my mind, well they were out of those on display. So I grabbed a single (22$) and just stood there knowing it wasn't what I needed, when an employee came by, asked her about any of the doubles in the back maybe? Well there were some of the quad leds high up on another shelf,(49$) marked at the single price of 22$. I asked if that was right and she checked, and no it was mismarked, but she let me have them for that, WOOHOO! Grabbed 2, and let there be light!
