Default waaayyyy OT

among tool "nuts" there is a lot of discussion of good tool makers who either sell
their company off or get a CEO in there going to run up the bottom line by cranking
out cheap crap and using the good name of the company to sell the cheap crap. that
is apparently what happened with Ryobi. at least with the router table. Ingrid

I listen to NPR a lot (not so much on the weekends,
though) and hadn't heard that one. I did read the
whole listing since we own a router table and I had
an idea of what the seller was talking about. Ryobi
is a good name in tools so I was surprised at the
criticism of this table.
