Look at that! #2: I was supposed to pick up my Delta bandsaw today but that's not gonna happen

So yesterday I called the guy I bought the bandsaw from to confirm the time for me to pick it up today.

It’s about a 3 hour round trip for me. He answered the phone and I asked the question and I hear a long pause like he forgot I was coming…

Turns out he is going to deliver it at 8AM this morning because he’s coming out here to pick up some other tool. Cool.

Hey maybe I can take the bandsaw to work so I work on it after hours? Nah, I’d feel like I was cheating the Unisaw.
