Let's say hypothetically you had $400 or so in Home Depot gift cards. Would you buy a Dewalt track saw or a Delta spindle sander?

Thanks.

This time of year I'd buy plants and gardening supplies.

An understandable approach. However, for me, if there's an opportunity to buy a tool, I buy a tool.
How about a new lawn-mower then???



If he has a Honda mower, he probably does not need one. I just in the
past few weeks put new/expensive wheels on my Honda, $120.00 ish. I
bought that mower in 1987, paid almost $500 for it and hoped I was not
throwing my money away.


Yes, sir. He has a Honda mower. The tires are worn, but the motor runs like it's 2006.


2006???? Have you even burned a tank of gas yet? LOL

I was looking at the Commercial series before buying the wheels. Double
the price I paid 32 years ago but they use the same style OHV engine
with direct drive to the hydro-static trans, roto stop engagement lever,
engine speed lever, and self propel bar.
If it works, don't change it.
