We had a big, heavy, noisy Panasonic for about 15 years or so. It finally got to be too much of a PITA and after much research my wife got a Hoover "wind tunnel technology" vacuum. It also came with

Depends on how you define "circuit breaker" and "stationary power tool". I have seen a lot of stationary tool motors (always single phase) that have thermal overloads built into them. Motor gets hot,

My experience splitting fir, hemlock, alder and a little maple is that it's always easier to split when it's green. I've used a maul and wedges, and I have owned a splitter for at least 15 or 20 year

Or to be contrary, you could get a pretty good used radial arm saw (or four or five really crappy ones) for your budget. Look for an older DeWalt or Delta from the 50s or 60s. _______________________

The ones I have seen have been a whimper, not a bang. The corrosion finally weakens the tank and it starts to leak and won't hold pressure. I think the chances of a catastrophic failure due to corros
