    Craig- Have you never asked someone to spell "ICUP"? I found it funny that the drug test itself is from a company called ICUP, as inferred...
    Think hard you'll get it....

    No never, but now I get it.

  • That's like calling a bowling alley and asking if they have 10 pound balls. Then... "How do you walk?"

    Sometimes being "the safety guy" can be fun.

    Lol do you work at a friggin prison?

    I wish! Weld/fabrication/assembly. We build these:

    Among other vegetation management solutions.

    That stuff is a blast to operate.

    What would be your take on someone firing a borrowed handgun into a 12" culvert to kill a skunk with around a dozen bystanders? Yes, I actually witnessed this at work about a decade ago. Remarkably, I think most of them are alive today. Maybe not the skunk.

    That made me cringe, not going to lie.

    My gut is a vegetation management solution.

  • re-inventing port enclosure

  • Looks like a nice aperiodic enclosure to me.

  • Today, on way to job site - When all that is between you and 2000 gallons of liquid waste 💩 is some string and a pair of vice grips Image

  • I'll bet you didn't tailgate.

    Lower one looks like what I imagine a prison shank would look like.

    Can't even comprehend how someone could use that hammer without bending every nail.

    Where I work the guys working in production for some reason won't fill out a maintenance request form and they just use this vinyl masking tape we have to kluge everything together.

  • Hits home... been looking at Saw Stop

     John H, btw forum has decided I don't get emails
  • I got the Saw Stop contractors saw - very happy with it (and can still count to ten). Years ago I took a week with a cabinet maker- he had a full floor unit - highly recommended for the pro, but especially for us part-time sawdust makers.

  • This woodworker live here in Ames. No Saw Stop for him.

    A friend of mine got a full size Saw Stop after he tried to cut a finger off. He didn't lose it but it's not 100%. As I recall he was picking up a piece of wood with one hand and not paying attention to where he had the other hand.

  • I'll never have feeling in one part of my right thumb after doing almost the same thing as your friend. It took me about a year before I had the urge to fire the saw up again. The first thing I built after that was a DIY side-mounted blade guard. There are only a few things I can't do with it in place. For those cuts, I now have a pretty good collection of push sticks or I use the crosscut sled.
