Those centipedes would give me nightmares!

I need to invest in some god measuring stuff like the Starrett, used their miter saw protractor and its a very accurate tool.

Could look for a General 350 too.

Right now I would say its a toss up between my 12″ Poitras 4800 Jointer and my SawStop Industrial Cabinet Saw.

My friend ordered one from South Korea, I believe it is both SAE and Metric. I will check next time I see him.

Lots of good advice so far. I like seeing how other people install doors and learning their little tricks and techniques.

I have a few of the big decor switches that are lit and they have been lit for more than 8 years as thats how long we have been in the house.
