    Love the rasp!!! I was rocking with another foreman last week and he tossed it to me to try out. I immediately ordered it at break time. No screen to mess around with. With the notch in it Its a dream compared to the ol' plane style stanley.

    i will get my tajima rasp soon. cant stand the cheap one from HD for 7 bucks and it always clogs up.

    thanks poison. ya they install a bunch of solar systems in the area. they know what they are doing.

    the boss is doing solar since 30y - thats quite some experience. and this company was way way lower then another local company.

    they wanted 6k more - kinda greedy to me.

     

    yeah its kinda dry....i like to play in a sandbox :P

    so here we go guys. my solar contractor called this morning if his guys can come out to start with the project. of course i didnt say no :D

    after his phone call they came within 15mins, i didnt even have time to drink my coffee haha

    they started right away with finding the rafters, used the lag bolts to secure the rails to the roof.

    the wire is pulled thru the attic all the way into my garage to a junction box, from there they have to go to the inverter next to the panel.

    rails are all installed. those guys are quick....they got lots of stuff done in one day.

    30x 255watt solar panels.

    here a little slideshow, i gonna upload more pictures in the next 2 days....then should everything be up and running.

    finally i could pick up my package from the UPS facility.

    been 3 weeks now including shipping (shipping just took 4 days).

    the shipper could finally revise the invoice and UPS dropped all the charges on the package.

    she told me that it was pretty difficult because they had to talk to many people and it had to get signed off by the custom broker etc.

     

    man but im happy that i got it now....no more sleepless nights haha

    one more 4ah battery which joins my family and i think i have 3 or 4 chargers now

    i cant work without my bosch tools :P

    but i dont have any 12v tools yet....i just stocked up the 18V line with brushless models.

    as soon as we see 12v brushless, i go for it...and they have to come in a kit.

    the other items like flashlight, vacuum, jacket etc....i might get that those one day.

    the 18V GLI VariLED will join soon my family :P
