  1. That is very tempting. I'm heating with Kerosene at the moment but man, what a pain in the ass. It's running about $30 a week, but I could do a little better if I was worried about it. The real problem is that most filling stations don't carry Kerosene anymore. I pass 3 stations getting to the 1 that has it.

  3. This is a nice saw. Last year I went to the Wood working show here in town and one of the speakers where talking on small shops. The speaker had been writing for fine woodworking for years and he could not say enough about this saw. Good luck and let us know how you like it.

  4. Sunday afternoon I, Jason and his wife headed out in the middle of a snowstorm to pick out his backsplash at the HD.  After about a half hour, he and his wife had it down to 2 or 3 tiles.  Jason’s mom passed away from cancer when he was 12 and when I told him if you pick the tumbled marble I have some hand panted tiles your mom did you can place in the field. That made for a fast decision. When I stopped by this week to see how far long he was, he had the backsplash in and it turned out nice for his first tile job. Now he has some more painting and trim to finish up.

    The best thing about this whole job is for the first time in 18 years Jason started to talk about his mom and asking questions about her.

  5. After it is all said and done, I did the best thing. I hate talking to people that way but, when someone accuses me of ripping them off and talking down to me because they have this better then you attitude it does not sit well with me.

     

    I stopped by my friend’s cabinet shop Monday and he gave me the low down on these two. Both are 32, the wife’s parents are doctors, and he is a trust fund baby. His parents passed away and left him millions. They are personal trainers and really do not work that much. Ike told me it got so bad that he walked off the job a couple of times and he would be driving home talking to himself. I could tell he was getting upset just talking about it. I have known Ike since we were 8 years old and as long as I can remember he has never said and unkind or bad word about anybody, it’s just not in him. So when he said walk away it really made me think.

  6. Might have to take a road trip.

    I have really gotten some great deals at the auction but you have to know what you are bidding on. Do your research; go to the preview to see what they got then start checking retail and wholesale prices. Do not forget they have a Buyer’s Premium 10% for cash and debit cards 13% for credit cards here in Maryland they have to charge sales tax also. I have been going to this for 13 years now and the biggest problem I have people get to caught up in it. They start the bid to high Let the auctioneer bring it down to their lowest price then throw out a bid a few bucks lower to get the ball rolling then you have the ones that really need that item and pay more then retail .
