hell, those sour grapes aren't coming from me! I just had to say SOMETHING to get you to respond! You didn't weigh in on either of the two "plan" threads so I thought I'd draw you out of your shell in this one. How the hell are you? :)
Now you understand why I didn't just go out and plunk down $50 on a brand new one? 'Sides, this one has a *user's mark*. Can't get that from Ann "Action Jackson" Rockler..
Once upon a time it involved the donning of the Carhartt shirt (a 10ish oz. cotton, color (colour David) green, catalog no. S09ASP) and a handful of Jolly Ranchers in the cup holder of the Jeep (top down dependent on the season). Check for glasses, the good ones for seeing close up, the MagLite (small one/fits in pocket). A quick visit to MapQuest to insure no additional time was spent wandering and then it was up and onward. These days the hunt is few and far between and more designed for results as time is fleeting.
There was once an imaginary friend I used to take with me named Billy (age 10). I was teaching him the ways. His imaginary parents had an imaginary restraining order issued against me so I guess there was a wee bit of Pinky going on.
OBWW: The Carhartt was bought at Highland Hardware. This was the visit when I met His Royness and he autographed my Galoot cap. That was the same day I met His Normness and the same day he autographed my Galoot cap.
Yup, that's me. I've been working on the plans for a great big woodworking project. poke your browser over to the following URL's and have a peek. As you can see in the views from the South and East, I took your advice and incorporated an entrance to the basement directly from the great outdoors.

up those plans has sure been an education in the fine art of compromise.
Next week I will mill the pieces of the balustrade on the porches. Then, I have to order the stock for the doors and jambs. That should keep me busy until next spring, when I am going to load all the pieces of the project into a container for shipment to the construction site in early summer.
I'm only $150,000 away from having a shop entrance from the garage. That figure also gets me lumber storage and a finish room and increases the present day 650sf shop/150sf wooddorking Leebrary to a more agreeable (to me)
1800-2000sf.
sigh...
Funny how sometimes you can understand things by working the concept through your head and other things you know onna 'count of you've been there, done that but didn't get to lick the bowl afterwards.
