Mornin' Michelle -
Toss his birthday butt in the truck and head north on Gulf Freeway. Stay on
it until you get to 610 and follow it around to 290. I believe the exit is
Antoine and make the U-turn to Woodcrafters. Let him know he's got $XXX to
spend and let him pick it out himself. It'll be great for the both of you,
he gets his choice, and he'll probably even take you out for dinner as well!
:-)

You sound like a great wife . . . he should appreciate you. Good job lady.

SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!! My husband mentioned in passing he would
like to have a belt sander - I would like to surprise him with one for
his birthday, but have not a clue which brand to buy for him or what
features to look for. He has been woodworking for a couple of years
now, starting slowly building a bookcase (his current project is
building a casing for his father's remains). I don't suspect he'll be
sanding any floors, but I would like to get him something he can keep
for years! I've done some limited research and found a few brands,
Porter Cable, Ryobi and Makita. Please help me out!!
