[Shop-talk] Is this thing still on? <Thanksgiving and Leaf Blowers>

[Tim .]

My contribution is that I use the detachable unit from my Husky shop vac. It is fine for what I need it for but does require an extension cord which is not a big deal for my half acre or so lot.

My gripe is that amazon is bad bad bad. Support brick and mortar shops because if we don't they will one day all be gone. Remember Sears? I remember having a hardware store in the small town we live it. That's gone. I can go on and on.

Hey, this list has been real quite lately.

I just got home from a 6 month EPIC build with the Army.  Experience of a lifetime!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  Again, I give thanks for the awesome brain trust here!  (and as soon as I get this email back with the donate link, I plan to drop some 'thanks' on the moderator!)

One question, in my quest to always buy tools when they are going on clearance, I'm in the market for a backpack leaf blower.

Price is not really a limiting factor, but I want POWER!!!  Any suggestions?  It seems that leaf blowers play the 'air compressor' game and claim ridiculous stats with no one holding their feet to the fire.

Any suggestions?  I plan to buy right away.  I normally use Amazon but if there is a place other that Amazon to get it, let me know.

Thanks again and I hope all is well!
