Wall mount makes a big difference. I have a wall mounted vac and it is great for freeing up floor space.

I wonder when they put a hard cast around people’s arms and legs, how does the doctor remove the cast at the end without cutting too deep? Do they use a saw?

Oh okay my misunderstanding
I will definitely have to get a few of those Bosch brands then.

I actually called up Tapcon USA and complained that their bits are either “poorly made” or “defective”. I told them what I experienced and they sent me four new SDS+ bits. I haven’t used them yet.…

I burned pine 1X and 2X but only for kindling. It burns hot and fast. Never used it as the main fuel for a fire though. I think the biggest issue is the build up of creasote when burning SPF.
