    When it comes to fast food, it's probably not a bad idea to pay attention to the calorie count. It really isn't hard to consume 1000 calories at a burger joint, or about half a day's recommended...

    I have a Hanson tap & die set from my father. I recently bought an Irwin metric set and except for the color the packaging is the same. It looks like Irwin bought Hanson or something like that.

    Wood Mizer has, or at least had a list of Wood Mizer owners that play for pay or a portion of the milled wood. Unless you're planning to produce quite a lot of wood, that might be a better option.
