Got this idea from Vaughns post (http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showpost.php?p=224571&postcount=13) in another thread.
Are there any tools you've bought that you later found out you had no use for and really wished you hadn't bought it?
Mine is my Skil Wormdrive saw. When I first started woodworking, I thought I'd get the biggest baddest circular saw out there. So I got a big, heavy, wormdrive saw. All I really needed though for breaking down sheet goods was a small normal saw.
That saw has been sitting on my shelf for many years, and it wasn't until this year that I really found a use for it. Used it with a diamond blade for cutting flagstone. So, in a way, I guess I'm glad I had it, but if I had known then what I know now, I wouldn't have bought it.
