When you need to make a precise, compound angle cut on the end of a piece of
stock, few tools are as easy to use as a compound miter saw. A compound

saw is basically nothing more than a circular saw placed on the end of a
lever. The stock is placed on a flat base against a fence, and the s

The standard "tank type" water heater is found in most homes and with just a

About 5 years ago our family built an outdoor fire pit. first by

four feet by six feet. the rreason for that we learned as Scouters

Say Dan,
Did you buy the nailer from a local store? Seems to me there wasn't enough time
to get it off the Web.
How did the price compare?
Your brother is a lucky fellow! While I don't have any immediate use for that
nailer I would love to own one. My wife doesn't have the faintest idea why I
Dale,
I got the joist nailer from Lowes. It was about 40 bucks cheaper at Lowes
than house of tools. $219 U.S. at Lowes.
I would love to hang onto this tool, but I will only have limited use for
it. Tommy can get more use out of it and I can always borrow it back from
him at any time.

HI, Just got my new talking tape from LSS PRODUCTS today... Well it seem to be
built a lot better then the other one I got it feels a little smaller and just
more sturdier. The buttons are little different but easy to learn. Have not
dropped it yet so can't say how it will hold up to that.

The article in American Woodworker number 130 titled Cube within a cube on
page 63 is something I'm actually going to try. I already have an idea for
an improvement to the method of fabrication. There seems to be a problem
with cutting away the last little bit of wood between the inner and ou
Exactly how do these talking tape measures function?
Is there actually a "tape measure" that's drawn out of the case like any
ordinary tape measure? If so I'd assume that the tape itself is somehow
marked so the case can identify how much of the tape has been withdrawn, is
this correct?
--
Bill,
It is correct.
A tape is pulled out of a case as in any other tape measure. The tape has holes
in it, they are apparently counted as they pass a sensor, I suspect optical.

My parents had a cutlass that had the gas tank filler under the license plate
in the back. I know it was a 1980's car, but don't remember what specific year.

My tape measure was doing the same thing and I sent it back and there was no
charge. I had to pay for shipping there, but nothing back. Now, it works
great.

Hi All,
I had a fantastic magnetic recovery tool. this tool had a long thin magnet on
the end of a fairly long spring. At the other end of the spring was a hollow
threaded fitting. There is an extension rod that slipped inside of the spring
and was screwed on the end of the spring for storage. W

So how hard is it to install a new thermostat? Not anything fancy, just the
basic model. The one in my hallway was just knocked off for what appears to be
