Maybe the price is just to help draws folks' interest. It looks

a lot less. And I hear people are more impressed with what they

pay anyway. Marketing ploy?

If so, it seems that if it works as well as it seems, somebody will
knock it off and sell it for less. I don't know how much less
though. I don't see this as a high production tool or anything. Maybe
three different models depending on precision and ruggedness
may be in order.

That's what people thought for 17 years regarding the Fein Multimaster.
Didn't happen.

Then, last November, the patent expired....
