I received an email from Wood Magazine last week saying they needed me to verify my contact information because I had won a sweepstakes. Being a cautious person a called over there to verify this wasn't a spam or anything and they told me, no joke, I won a Rotex 150 in the "One-Stop Wood Prep Sweepstakes" sponsored by Wood Magazine and Woodcraft! How cool is that? 8)
I've been reading Wood magazine for years and this is the first time I've ever won a contest from a magazine. That it's for something useful makes it even better. Not sure exactly what I'll use the rotex for, my ETS 150 seems to work quite well for most of my needs (which was why I chose it) but it opens up some interesting options for polishing and it'll make planer marks go away faster
Anyway, hopefully I'll get it in the next week or two so I can put up my impressions of it compared to the ETS150/3. Can't wait to have it in hand.
