Dewalt DWS709, 12" dual bevel, sliding mitre saw.

I gave up on the old Ridgid mitre box. Put a new field coin in it and discovered it also needed an armature. No way I was going to put another $150 into that Saw.

This thing is really sweet and I got a great deal on it as well. I really love working at Lowes

My son turned another mushroom for the collection today.


He's learning and I'm enjoying passing on some of what I know.

Looking forward to birdhouse season

No we haven't. We're looking more towards the creative side of design. Different shapes and materials.

Good thing theirs a market for stoppers cause duck calls good ones are selling for 99.99 to 300.00... that was for nice production ones sold by stores like cabelas, gander mtn ,and bass pro.. glad there is a market for them stoppers  cause those stoppers are d**n nice!

[rgfixit]

The cork stoppers are the inexpensive style. The silicone stoppers are next. Need to order up some more materials today. I'll be doing duck calls Boone. That's a whole different set of fixtures, mandrels etc.

Made a couple more carbide turning tools. They may look crude, but they work like a charm.



I especially like the round tool. It seems to have endless possibilities.
