In Houston, the Lowe's at Royal Oaks and at FM 529 still have one Delta
Planer (22-580) left in stock at $229. At this price, all discussions about
which portable planer is the best are irrelevant. I've had mine for a month
and I am ecstatic about it. I've accomplished things in the last week that
were formerly not easily possible for me. The only downside is that my
woodstock is starting to accumulate expensive solid wood and less plywood
and 2x4's. :-)
