Air cleaners? Mid-sized air compressors? Shop vacuums?

That all blows.

Impact drivers? small cordless drivers?

That's screwed.

First, everyone has a shop vacuum, compressor, impact driver, and cordless driver. In fact, who doesn't have 2+ cordless drivers already?

Second, almost everyone has a router or three, and you know that 3hp routers have to go into a table to do the things 3hp routers do that 2-2.5 can't. So, it becomes a test of variable speeds and access from the table top...boring.

Air cleaner tests come down to sound, CFM, and effectiveness. None of which lend themselves to an interesting discussion, and the product itself really is a niche product with questionable value, except in a finishing room.

A 18" bandsaw review is like a review of cabinet saws. Expensive and not really necessary. The 16" review you did recently ruled, but that's really the limit on bandsaws for most people.

6" jointers, well , if you're not going to do a benchtop version, why not get an 8" version for the same footprint. Besides, you know that people who buy a 6" are going to want to trade up, so doing a larger jointer article appeals to first time buyers and upgraders. Maybe, do a 8" or 10" review. Or a 12" review to support the 12" benchtop planer review.

You should really do the hollow chisel mortiser review. It's an area competitor mags haven't hit recently, is an accessory that everyone doing fine woodworking plays with - should i go with a mortise chisel, drill press + corner chisel or mortiser? It's also an accessory that would fit well with the right project in the same issue. That's a home run, especially if you do some tips on selecting the right mortising bits.
