I wouldn’t even clean that up with your chisel. Pretty darn close to perfect. Congrats!

We’ve decided that I will drive to Montana to pick it up and while there, I will give him a hand on cleaning up and organizing his shop a bit.?

Thanks Chet for the link. These are the ones that I have but I see from the video that they now have a drill guide for the holes. The holes were my problem as if they were exactly parallel, as mine weren’t, it guaranteed to pinch the board against the fence. I’ll get in touch with them to see if I can get the guide by itself.

That would make for an interesting piece!

PB& J! Whatcha cutting now bud?

Right after this s#*t started, a hamburger joint around the corner needed some protection, such as the one you made. The owner and friend of the family contacted my brother that can do anything, to make him a plexiglass barrier between his window and the public. He’s probably cleared 20k in the last 2 months from referrals.

Thanks Jamie for the reply. I ordered a splinter set, two pieces with two pins in each one, one for thin kerf, the other for 1/8”, don’t recall the name. I had to drill corresponding holes in my insert and apparently they were super critical and I knew that from the start. Apparently they were too critical as they created a bind in itself as soon as the piece cleared the blade and I chunked them.

As I’m unable to edit a post, any way to put a logo, email or phone number on the customer side for future business?

Damn dude, well done! I think the price is right.

I’ve wondered this for a long time and a recent thread on WTO regarding a SawStop made me ask. I currently have a 1 3/4 hp Jet ts, purchased in 2010. It came with a riving knife but I don’t what I did with it and never installed it. After joining WTO and listening, I realized how important it could be. I ordered one and and it was for thin kerf blades and I took it off as I switch back and forth. So having said that, I have been pushing my luck for ten years. Question is, all things equal, is a higher powered saw more likely to kick back than say the one I have? Currently I can see if the board comes back together on a rip cut and can hear the saw becoming in a bind, thus providing me time to shut the saw off. I suspect with a higher powered ts, I would not hear that and that it would kick back? Hope that makes sense and I don’t mean this as an excuse to not use the knife, regardless of whether or not I replace my saw with another.

It looks great and looks like stacked stone. I think you got your money’s worth.

So the brick/stacked stone look is just stamped into the concrete?

What kind of material was used on the bulkhead behind the sandbox?

Jamie, very cool and I agree, great use of the space. Another good treatment for fire ants without the use of poison is boiling water. And you get instant gratification in hearing the little suckers squeal.

You better as I did without lunch for two days so that I didn’t have to pull the money out of savings. ?

Jamie, you owe it to yourself to find it. Then buy you a decent pair of black and white checked lounging pants/pj bottoms and put both on when you get out of the shower at night. Hopefully you get the same results that I get. Nuff said!

If I knew how to quote from one thread to here, I would. You asked if I received my free tee from Kev. Just like your quality lumber, if you want the good stuff, you have to reach deeper in that front pocket. For me, it’s the back pocket. Kev, get his size and send the mountain boy one and send me the bill. ?

It’s like deja vu for you. Been there, done that!

For you die hard others, I will qualify my decision for picking the Chevy. First, there are numerous, no, more than that, a s*#t pile full of dealers of every make and model in the Houston area. I chose to stay within a 15 or so mile radius of my house. I drove 50 miles to buy my wife’s Traverse due to the color she wanted. Another story completely. 1. Dodge - I found one on their lot that I really liked and the sales dude rear ended me at the very end for a $2,100.00 up charge for nitrogen in the tires for the life of the vehicle. Hope he has to breath nitrogen for the rest of his life. 2. Ford - I didn’t want white or black (I know, wife’s delima) and the colors (and I wanted leather) that I liked all had the echo boost 6 cyl., mostly the 2.7 or whatever it was. And their sales price was a good 8-10% over comparable competitors price. 3. Toyota Tundra - the 12 mpg city and 17 mpg hwy killed the deal even though my brother and a close friend, swears by them. 4. Chevy - I have bought close to 35 Chevy vehicles for the company in the last 20 years, including 3 Suburbans for myself. The one I traded in, bless her heart, had 238,000 miles on her and was still going strong. My fleet sales person made me a deal on a color and package that I liked, (except this has a trailering package that I’ll never come close to using) and it has the same engine that the Suburbans had. The only up charge here was $8,100.00 for the bed! ? “And that’s all I have to say about that” !

I may have to go to another forum! And yes, I did pay extra for the steel bed! Out of jealousy you ask? ? WHATABURGER

Kev may be holed up in Tulsa longer than he expected. I’ll ask if he wants to make a return trip! ?

Kind of a take off of “Feet’s Up” and “Where’s Waldo”

Check your mailbox and then place your order! ?

I thought it would be interesting to see where some are worn. I apologize for apparently having short arms as there’s too much of my mug in the pic . These were taken just east of Houston at The San Jacinto Battleground, location of where Texas finally won it’s independence from Mexico in 1836. San Jacinto Monument Also located in the park is The Battleship Texas. The last surviving Dreadnought as well as the only battleship in existence today that fought in both WWI and WWII.

Yeah, for $6 . ?
