Sand-flee

[hackergranny]

I am waiting for my Sand-flee to come on Tuesday and I just saw this new video on it at You tube. Made me laugh as he reminded me of the Shamwow thing on tv. I know some folks won't use it but for me with bad lungs it will be great help to me.

Hey Sandy, Your right, He is like the Shamwow guy! I would love to have one, but too expensive for me! Now if they would like to send one to me to review it, I wouldn't mind. After all I'm a member of a worldwide scroll saw forum, a member of a large woodworking club, an instructor at Woodcraft.......!

[hackergranny]

expensive it is but if it keeps my lungs doing better it is cheap for me as trips to the Lung doc are verry expensive. I bought the stand for it from Woodcraft and I hope it fits as the info on it does not say which one it fits.

Looking forward to your review!

I would love to own one to, but like Dan said they are expensive. The lowest price I have seen is $399 for the 9" 1/7 hp.

Dan you said you used to live in Riverside hope you may know about this place. It is a plywood and exotic wood place it was just off the 215 freeway I used to buy all my exotics and 5/ply plywood from them. I have not been there in 8 years and forgot just where it is at Colton rings a bell. It was in an old warehouse but boy they had great prices on everything they sold. I cannot remember the name of the place do you?

Sandy, It's been 30 years. Wasn't woodworking back then!

I was born in Torrance and I have not been to La area in 40 years. Lol

My first reaction when I read the topic name was "What on earth is a sand-flea?" Now I've watched the video I want one, but don't think I am likely to get it sooon, the price and a place where I can buy one is the problem.
Let us know how you like it when you start using it.

I've wanted one for a long time but just cant justify the price.  I will eventually break down and get one.

I want to know does it slice and dice LOL. It would be my next tool of choice, but it is pricey. I am all about eliminating dust.

Mark before it got here yesterday I thought it was pricey too but after seeing how this is made I have changed my mind. I like the fact that it is made here in the U.S. This 18inch model is verry sturdy. I think this unit is worth every penny Hubby paid for it.

So Sandy, now that you have your Sand-Flee, tell us how you like it!
