Is that something people'd be interested in? Please help this amateur

Probably...sounds like you would like what you've outlined, right. Burn
the midnite oil and get it to market. Then I'll pop in to my local tool
store to kick the tires. oh, and I'll want to read a review of it in a
major mag or two before I seriously consider it's purchase.

Go for it!

hey, it's not April Fool's yet, is it??

No, it's not a joke. I have some of it working rather nicely,
based on several different power tools you're probably quite comfy with
already. It's the novel combination of those -- plus a key, older idea
that was patented (now expired) -- that's the key.

I know all about "yeah, we'll need to see it, and some reviews, before
we'd believe it".

My point is "SUPPOSE it worked as advertised -- is that something there's
demand for? Would people much rather have a one-machine solution? Do
people really understand that, now, you DO need two machines? Is there
actually "pain" in the marketplace?"

Pretend with me, for the moment, that what I'm saying about the machine is
true, and could be proven -- NOW -- how do you feel about the idea?

Thanks,
Andrew

I'd be seriously interested, Andrew. I can't imagine you hitting that
low of a price point, though.
