If the sides are thick enough Soss hinges are simple to install, all you need is the right size drill.
A regular hinge will need to be recessed by half its closed thickness on each side in order for...

John, I replied to the PM but I don't see it in my sent items.

Article 1 of the constitution gives the power to "coin money and regulate the value thereof".
Congress has the power to coin gold and silver and set the amount of gold or silver that constitutes a...

When did we "collectively" agree?
Did "we" have a choice?

Money is not collectively owned, it is collectively used.

They are not right or left handed.

Peter, If you believe I was unfair and taking that quote of of context I do apologize, but I honestly don't know how to put a statement like that in context.

This thread has made me a little nostalgic.
Next year I plan on touring the country to visit some historic landmarks.
First stop Richmond, Va. where Patrick Henry gave his "give me safety or give...

I stand by my remarks.
1. Adding the device may actually increase the manufacturers liability, at this time manufactures are not liable for fingers being cut by accident.

Patent laws probably play a part in the lack of competition on saw safety.
Litigation can be a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation.

Be careful of what you ask for.
Baby crib standards made old cribs illegal to sell, even if they are used, that table saw you now have may end up worth nothing more than scrap value.
Next will be...

I am not against all cooperative arrangements at all, I never said a man is an island unto himself.
I DID...

I respectfully disagree.
I pay for my electricity, buy and grow my food, pay fuel taxes, TV? (I don't get that), pay for my phone, and my medical care.

BTW, I am not against Saw Stop technology,...

I did not say that freedom and being a member of society were mutually exclusive, just that being a member of society does not entitle anyone to free health care, health care is important, but free...
