Awesome bro! But like someone else mentioned on here I think it was 99 they are dust magnets for sure! I'm almost debating on getting another one maybe the milwaukee one but wouldn't hesitate to get the husky again.

You got a project for that new saw or was it just time for a new one?

Excellent, I haven't been able to devote a lot of time to the forum lately, so I'm catching up on things, and I see your previous saw is now in pieces, rats a bunch, dude, but that saw looks pretty nice, I don't blame you for getting at all, hope it holds up to your use!

You can see your toolbox so much better now! And the clutter, that's one thing about better lighting, the clutter shows up more lol!

Been in the process of re-finishing some chairs that I bought for cheap, they aren't anything fancy or exactly the sturdiest, but I hated the thought of throwing them on the fire, when I know I can fix them up and have them for years to come. 

Today I got one all prepped for assembly with the help of M12 rotary tool and my trusty Makita orbital random sander, which I just got some sanding pads for, see pics....

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's my dust collection system, not much, just a remote to activate the power to the vacuum, a little Dirt Devil vacuum that works well on the sander and my miter saw, and it really works to keep the dust out of my breathing.

Well while I'm in here I cut some letters out that will get sanded and painted to make MR & MRS. Also got a coat of primer, finally, on part of a scrapbook center I am building, need to get going on the desk part of it.  Painted a game board, we painted the bottom of it, got some shellac I am going to finish it with then thinking about trimming it for decoration purposes.

So as I started to say last week, my dad and I replaced a deck up at our hunting camp. We built one last year and we decided it was time to replace the current one. It took us 3 days, one hospital visit and a hell of a lot of screws. Used almost all DeWalt 20V max tools with some exceptions. 2' + 4' Stabila levels, craftsman router, porter cable miter saw. So here are the pictures from start to finish. We will let it weather a few weeks and stain it the same color as the other one in the background of some of the pics. Hope you like it.

Sweet, davejr , loving the pics, as well as the Dewalt glamour poses in each one lol

Who doesn't love a good tool line up. I wish I had my whole DeWalt line up with me!

[John Glassey]

Looks good Dave, good tool porn lol.

I also recently built this cherry bench. Plans are based off "The Wood Whisperer" on youtube. Just have to finish it. Not sure what I want to use. Any ideas?
