I should have elaborated.... Darcy is known for hauling in, rebuilding, and owning, VERY HEAVY old all cast iron woodworking machines. So, a comment about weight getting to him is really funny to me....... [cool] [cool] [cool] [cool] [cool]HDClown said:leakyroof said:What... WHAT.... [eek] [eek] Okay, explain this....

The 26 and up are just too big for me anymore.
He's probably hauling his CT around between locations, where as OP said it will sit in his shop and doesn't need portability.
As for the cost, a MIDI might save you $175 up front, but over time, it will cost more. Smaller bags need to be changed more which increases consumable cost. A CT36 bag is 2.5x capacity of a MIDI bag. You need to spend $83 on CT MIDI bags to equal the same total capacity as $43 worth of CT36 bags. We're talking about a lot of bags over time to cover the up front savings, it will happen, and then you're into the "costs more" category.
