Beautiful. Makes me want to make one myself.
Almost none. 3 kids, 50-60 hrs per week at the office + 2-3 hrs per week to work out. I could do the 12:00 - 2:30 AM thing but I don't want to work tired and risk injury.
PS -- that pirate bed...
I liked the Sobotka plotlines. Mr. Pryz as a teacher for a season was the low point of the series for me. That, and the end of Omar Little.
I'll have to check out Treme, even though Steve...
Why not? Because this kind of litigation will end up being a 'tax' (i.e., another hidden cost of doing business) that will drive up the cost of every lawnmower I buy for the rest of my life.

What does the 6/0, 2/0, etc., numbering system mean? Can someone explain that?
Probably an oversimplification -- we understand a few things about targets and pathways, but the body is an extraordinarily complex set of systems that we are not able to model / simulate very well,...
As a Raider fan, I'm just glad they didn't try to force him to come to Oakland. That would have been a mess.
The Eagles REALLY like Kevin Kolb. Hope he continues to play well.
www.cshardware.com -- got some hettich quattro (FWW best value) undermount slides for cheaper than anywhere else.
There's an article in FWW within the last few years that gives a very detailed breakdown of how to solve all the problems you list. Google it, check your local library, or get their 15-day free...
FWW did a review of undermount slides ~1-2 years ago. Worth looking at the index or checking your local library.
The Hettich Quattro was the 'best value' and I used them in a small chest of...
I have a basement shop with engineered wood I-beams as floor joists (or that's what the home inspector called them). Looks like a couple of 2x3s with some OSB in between to make an "I", if that makes...
Wow. Great incentive to go there for everything. If only they sold computers, I wouldn't have to deal with the usual BS from Microsoft. (Sorry, wrong board.)
He got fired some time in the '90s for making an inexplicably bad, racially insensitive comment involving people getting dragged behind trucks. He said a few bad things before then (I also listened...
I hope I'm not a candidate for a Darwin award here -- hopefully you SMCers can help me solve my problem.
I have a basement shop (concrete floor) and have been using a BORG-bought RIGID shop vac...
I have the next model down (no Bies fence) and am very happy with it. It's no Powermatic, but for the price it's tough to beat. With a little setup time, it makes nice straight cuts and doesn't...
I tried selling a car online when the dealer offered me terrible trade-in value. First I posted ads on Autotrader and cars.com (spent ~$80 to do that) and didn't get much. Then I put out a free...
A guy in SE CT was selling his shop. I just missed all the hardwood, but picked up 10 Jorgensen heavy duty 36" bar clamps for $10 a piece. He threw in the nice French-cleated wall rack to hold them...
I'm a USAA policy holder and am shocked by the difference in price. I'll have to check that out myself. Have you called USAA with the quote to see what they can do?
I have the Hitachi KM12VC, which sometimes goes on special at Amazon for $99. Right now it's $162, so I'd probably second the Milwaukee. Still, the Hitachi's not bad and when it's $99 it's a tough...
I have the Narex set and while they're metric, it's not so far from English that it makes a difference for me.
I did have to spend some time lapping the backs of mine, but I got them right...
+1 low angle jack.
+1 on the low angle jack plane. Such a nice tool -- smooth, versatile, just a joy to use.
Hand Tool Essentials -- nice collection of articles that covers a wide array of topics -- very good for the beginning woodworker. Pictures and writing are very clear and helpful.

No, Derek, thank YOU for sharing with us -- that smoother is gorgeous. I admire your skills and vision. Makes me want to invite the in-laws up just to clear out the house and let me get some good...
