I'm glad to see guys still get stuff fixed instead of buying another tool!

Yes they are! And Firemen are all gay strippers ? I jest of course ?

This is the old 323, I would love to Dewalt come out with a 20v barrel. My Carvex is the best jigsaw I've used. And it is a barrel grip too. I also have the NAINA Makita brushless 18v barrel grip jig and it is awesome.

Sorry....I am perputually a juvenile at heart ? ? jazz hands !!!

Well I've been dreaming enough of this so today I made good on the start... I just bough 8 Hemlock 2x8x14 rough sawn sticks at Cameron's here in Farmington NH and brought them home for a $103 price tag. I also stopped by the USPS and picked up my Stanley 207 bench dogs I bought on eBay. This is going to be a fun and hopefully inspiring project for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

http://www.toolnut.com/dewalt-dcs367b-20v-max-xr-brushless-compact-reciprocating-saw-tool-only.html Phenomenal deal. I'm thinking about buy it just cause it's such an awesome deal. Though I got my Makita brushless one and love it.....?

Hahahaha....well let me tel you what put a smile on my face.....err.....never mind! I will say I honed a chisel blade down in the shop and set up two of my newest planes, the 4-1/2 smoother and my larger shoulder plane both from Veritas. Also....nothing like drilling holes bro. Fun fun fun!

Nope, not just your bro. I got bits stuck in there ALL the time. Plus the spring on the shank came off often. Aside from that, absolutely awesome, super comfy grip, powerhouse of an impact gun.

Just saw this on Shannons youtube channel ?

I can't tell bro, it looks like it's a Bosch right? Makita has a similiar one too but the color is off!

No problem dude. I actually am watching the English Woodworker series and purchased his video series. I've been leaning towards a Nicholson with a tail vise and a face vise, this plan I am reviewing in conjunction with Scwarz' book is a modified Nicholson, a true English bench. I'm not a mechanic and I'd rather lose a nut than use my Festools and a handmade work bench in the repair of any car. The nice thing about the bench I'm going to build will be mostly Pine or hemlock with hardwood vise components. I am still in the possibility phase if building a garage which will mean my bench will have to be moved. Making a hardwood split top roubo would literally and physically and mentally and all that other crap kill me to move it. A pine bench might be a little bit easier (not really, those two inch hemlock rough dawn boards are friggin heavy. Back to the project, I was looking g at purchasing Marc's plans but the bench though looks beautiful is a little bit out of my realm of reality right this moment. Having a slab topped bench as opposed to a monolithic top is much more manageable for me. Maybe in 15 months when I retire but not now.

Yuppers Rich, that is the Veritas 4-1/2 smoothing plane with the PM-V11 blade. The fit and finish is beutiful and though I would love to have the Lie Nielsen I really wanted to try this out. My next one to be ordered, hopefully for next month on my birthday will be the Lie Nielsen No.62 low angle Jack. I am hoping my Wife picks up my subtle hints that I have been dropping but.....I'm saving my pennies ?. Back to the plane. I purchased some large 10" wide white pine boards for a Dutch toolchest. Additionally....This week I am purchasing rough milled pine or hemlock for an English stile bench. I just bought the tail vise assembly from https://www.hovartercustomvise.com/product/vx20w-wagon-vise-hardware-kit/ yesterday. I will be using this new Veritas for all of the smoothing applications and will hopefully form a beaming opinion over the next month or so as I make headway on these two projects.

Wow, being a Christian, that is a thing of beauty ? The Lord, Dewalt and I cannot tell if that's a Makita or Bosch saw but it's allllllll gooooood!

Not really a shop update again, but.... http://jrsknives.com/products/neckr-number-5-kydex-sheath I bought this knife the other day, it came in today, from Jr's Knives. I have been trying my hand at instagram and saw one of our members repost, whatever the heck that is, a giveaway for one of his knives. I bought this knife and I've got some initial impressions. Naturally this thing cost an arm and a leg but it's an American craftsman made knife that will hopefully last a lifetime. The knife I bought is a Neckr model with walnut burl handles and is quote striking to look at. It comes with a kydex sheath. Although I haven't cut Anything with it, I have developed some initial impressions of the knife and sheath. I spent a $145 on the knife and it seems solidly built with an incredible finish. The knife will need a light honing but is quite sharp. The sheath is meh. No belt loops or slots and it appears to be designed to be used with a g-clip (I seriously don't know what the heck that is, I looked on Amazon and it's some type of Molle like system. I will say the sheath is solid and holds the knife in place quite well. I will not be carrying this on a Molle type carrier though my tac rifle vest would support it. My purpose for this guy will be an EDC rescue tool and the thickness of the blade shows this will be well suited for the task. We will see how it fares in the shop too but if I remember I'll try to do a review after some real world use. I will say, this guy seems like a well made investment in a tool that should hold up quite well to some serious use. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking good Jimbo!

Like Jimbo, apparently links are not high in the electronic vocabulary of KC Tool..... https://www.google.com/search?q=kc+tool+olathe+ks&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS615US615&oq=kc+tool+olath&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0.3506j0j4&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=lie&lkt=LocalPoiReviews Review left Ryan. You guys are hands down the best. Period. Thanks bro ?????????

Added a couple of more Lie Nielsen tools to my shop including another bevel edge chisel and a Boggs spokeshave [emoji869] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Mike that looks awesome! What color of grout are you owing for this one?

Good luck Travis, I hope this things goes together awesome bro!

Nope. No it won't. Not till your dead or your wife dumps you....but then youll dust yourself off, rise from the grave or whatever, and go after the next shiny tool ?

Thanks bro appreciate that and I am sorry dude.

Happy Father's Day guys! And don't forget to call your Dad's for the Love of God!!!

I'd come over to help Mike but my last boss canned me....don't know why ?
