If you own a quad and live anywhere that gets snow, a plow pays for itself the first time you skip hiring a truck or tractor to clear your lane.

I have been cutting fabric for over a decade, and I still remember the first time my bargain rotary cutter snapped mid-cut and sent a ruler flying across the table.
