    No such thing as a free tool. You guys should know better it’s going to cost you something

    I suppose I could fit a second SawStop in the shop. I'll be grateful for anything given to me. Even a toothpick sharpener.

    I was surprised that I got in after 20+ minutes! Can't wait to see what it is. The pressure is on to keep the creek in the loop! It pays to stay home from work and be on SMC 24/7!

    I know I am not in the first 10 but here is my circular saw and my track saw.

    First you see my circular saw. This is of course filed rip. Key here is matching the correct tooth pitch to the sales circular thickness.

    And here you see my track saw. This is filed cross cut.

    Rob, prefers you working to help build your Lee Valley fund!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.

    The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...

    Its probably a left handed pencil, which will prompt folks to want a matching right hand model.

    very nice of of you to do this. Hope the 10 share what they get so the rest of us can be envious.
