There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda.

Massdrop is a great community, and I would love to see it expand to include "hobbies" such as Carpentry and Metalworking, and "tech" such as Power Tools.
Drills, Table Saws, Routers, Welders, Grinders, Chisels, Saws, and the like can all be very expensive, and are prime candidates for mass-buyer price drops.
If we have enough people interested in RC cars to have a community dedicated to them, I'm absolutely certain we'd have enough people interesting in building things, who would love to get power tools and whatnot at great prices.
As for the community name, I propose either "Wood and Metalworking", "Fabrication", "Power Tools", or simply "Tools".
What do you guys think?
