Got a replacement battery Puts out 41.6 volts Works in auger and charger All is good Thanks for the help

So after reading your post Smitty I went to the shop, read the operating manual and used two of the spindles, no issues at all. My guess is that the comments made in the review of the sander failed to read the manual and note that the sanding sleeves seat on a soft rubber core that needs to be compressed with the appropriate size washers (provided) and tightened down to expand the rubber core. Exactly as it is with the small Dremel sanding drums. I used it for a few hours this afternoon and thus far, I am happy with the purchase. This was today's work on the new sander. Next up, Tru Oil finish the wood and then set the two rivets and the decorative center piece.

Well, I did it! I went one step further though and installed a heat pump and electric furnace. I am amazed at how much more comfortable my house is, the fan is on low all the time so the air is constantly circulating and it keeps the whole house at a constant temperature where as before some rooms were colder than others. You never even hear the fan, the only way you can tell it's working is I have a plant near one of the registers and I can see slight movement in the leaves. Apparently this fan uses less power than a ceiling fan to operate and even though we have had a few nights down to around the freezing point the furnace hasn't kicked in. I do still have a small propane fireplace in my Florida room that will keep this place comfortable in case of a power outage but in the 8 years I have lived here the longest I have been without power was 36 hours during last winters ice storm. Little things like the sun shining in my living room windows in the afternoon, instead of just the living room getting hot, that heat gets distributed throughout the whole house. Cooking dinner last night, instead of the kitchen getting hot, it distributed that heat, keeping the kitchen comfortable and the rest of the house actually rose above the temperature set at the thermostat. Time will tell but so far so good!
