What are saving for? Their planes are amazing and comparable to the Veritas line of planes.

While I do have one Lie Nielsen block plane that I really like, if I was someone who used hand planes all the time I would much rather…[Read more]

I love mine. I am actually thinking about a second one. One for staying in the truck and one for home.
I have been using the Ryobi radio for years and kinda funny , it stopped working about 2 months after getting the new pb180.

That is likely because the Ryobi just…[Read more]

I am with you on this one. The only reason you would drive screws that deep is if you were in a pinch and had screws that were too short that you needed drive them in farther to get them into the piece of wood underneath.

Otherwise the screws should only be driven a little below the surface, it makes it easier to remove the screw if necessary…[Read more]

Warmed up a little bit here today because of the rain we will be getting for the next week or so, about 5 celcius out this morning.

I am saving up for one of the dust extraction Vacuums, not sure which one yet but looking at the bigger 14 gallon ones but may just end up getting a smaller one for the space saving. I just spend all my points recently though so I have a long ways to go, so I have lots of time to decide.

The trim works looks awesome, you do very nice work. It must be nice working with the unlimited budget, gives you the freedom to be creative and do new things. Looking forward to seeing it all finished.

Good idea to get on it before it gets cold and everyone wants one. I am considering one of these myself, I am likely going to have more outside work this winter than I have in a long…

I got to use my Bosch ROS a lot yesterday. Its the first time I have had time to use it significantly since I received it. I have to say I am very impressed with it so far.

I thought I was going to be doing slab work today, but the rebar guys are about 3 days behind. So instead I am doing as much prep as possible so that we can be prepared when the work is ready for us later in the week.

It must be a local thing to where you are, I don’t know if I have ever seen any of that stuff on the shelf locally here North of the border. Keep an eye on the stuff maybe it will be going on clearance and you can get a great price!

Congrats on the nice redemption @overanalyze, you saved up for a long time to get that one! I have my eye on that router kit as one of my next things to get, it looks really nice.

@TaraC welcome to the forum! Glad to have you here.

@Anchorbolt welcome to the forum! Glad to have you here.

Wow that is a couple awesome new additions to the prize list. That D-tect sensor is pretty cool, it would save a lot of mistakes on a job site for sure.

@sparky603 congrats on the new stuff. That tool pouch looks awesome, I have been looking for something like that and I think I might order one.
