    [QUOTE=Dave Cullen;2467479]Yup. A few of my pet peeves are "web sight" instead of site. And seen on woodworking forums (horrors!), filling the wood pours (pores). Ugh.

    Isn't a web sight when you see the spider web just before you walk into it?

    I was skeptical of that actually happening, but did a search on SMC and found hundreds of examples. Interestingly, most of them are from 2004.

    This thread started in the off topic forum and was moved to the General Woodworking and Power Tools forum. I personally think it started in the right place. :-)

    Maybe the mod pre-read the post and made a decision before fully reading it.

    A lot of people do not know the difference between advice and advise, such as "I need some advise, or will you advice me on this", frustrating.

    And why are so many YouTubers so weak in their presentations that they are constantly saying, "I gonna go ahead and . . . ?" Gonna go ahead and? They must like to hear themselves talk. I generally stop watching at that point.


    I expect a lot for free, huh.

    If you're demolishing something or taking it apart, a somewhat dull chisel works perfectly well to split wood. My dad is a contractor and mostly his chisels are at this level of dullness. He reserves a couple in more-or-less sharp condition for more delicate jobs that actually benefit from sharpness.
