Previously, I posted track connectors and a Festool CT 26. The rest of the package order arrived today. Still hope it proves worthwhile.

This popped up outside of Richmond, VA a week ago... No personal interest / investment here. Just posting FYI and because it seems related. https://richmond.craigslist.org/for/d/quinton-gang-drill-clausing/7428917684.html

Good stuff. I once heard "no one person can curb the market on good ideas." That one stuck.

neophyte - accurate; the blade tip is flush with the bottom of the piece.

Combination of HF peg-style socket trays and Schaller boxes. Similar to an earlier reply, these tools are primarily stationary. Quarter inch drive on left, 3/8" drive middle / right. Nothing too special.
