He did buy the tools. His $15 also included a 8" 2101 brace and a Stanley 80 scraper. I don't know if he plans on keeping the plane or selling it to get funds for tools he needs more

Is anyone familiar with the POM brand of table saw? I found one with a slider, but I don't want it if it's crap. There are other tools there that are good quality, but I'm leary of the saw. Thanks!!
