  1. Too bad they weren't making Kevlar body suits
  2. Dude, I didn't even think of that. THANK YOU!!!!! I've got my head all the way up my butt right now. That would make things a lot easier!
  3. Yeeeesh.....it's like when you buy a really expensive car. You don't fixate on the price, just the knowledge that it's going to give a mind blowing experience. After you buy it is when you start to panic I do not have an exact number but I've got the following tools.... TS55REQ Kapex KS120 Domino DF500 MFK700 OF1010 OF1400 Carvex PS420EBQ HKC55 RO90DX Pro5 LTD MIDI MFT/3 MFT/Kapex T18 Set CXS Set C15 LR32 Syslite Multiple Rails for the TS and HKC Im sure I'm missing some on the list but this was a crazy summer, fall and winter. Sold my home, stayed with inlaws. Bought a home. Had a healthy beautiful son...Who decided to come very early. Spent a month in the hospital with the cute little monster....and now I'm trying to get in gear!!!
  4. Thanks Andrew, I appreciate that sir! I ended up slicing too much of the jacket off but I might have the slack so I don't have to run another 8' of wire but moving the box. I will play with it in the morning but if it doesn't work, I'll have some extra Romex
  5. Sure. Almost nothing, I've only bought maybe four. They give them free when you buy tools
  6. It was there when I bought the house and he drove tapcons in the wall. I just didn't feel like patching
  7. Made a little more headway today. I wired in a junction and a 2 gang and a single, then headed to Mom in laws with my wife and son. Maybe some more tomorrow! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I've got a lot Stabilla. Really nice level. These Empire ones look pretty sweet at a fraction of the cost.
  9. Wera Zyklops 1/4 switch drive ratchet
  10. Clearly different tool uses from one country to the next! Here in the USA they have the incorporated Jointer planer units but they don't have too much popularity because though it does both jobs, it doesn't do either overly well in a shop. Like Jason said we have the Shopsmith tools, my father in law has one, but they try really hard to do multiple things at the same time. The benefit to these machines is clearly cost for one machine as opposed to three or four machines and Jason pointed out something to as far as safety regulations. We used to have radial arm saws. They were considered the best machine for performing multiple functions....cross cutting, ripping, dados and tenoning. Heck some even could route. But then came accidents and the Feds put all sorts of safety regulations on the manufacturing of and usage of in a construction capacity and now you can nary find what used to be the most popular woodworking tool in the USA! Anyways, I digress. I haven't seen any tools like that since the year before last when they had several steam powered woodworking tools at the Fair.
  11. Nice! I've got two bids in for a couple of No 14 Millers Falls bench planes for me to get all pretty. This one looks fantastic!
