    Attractive Blue Saw

    As you can see, this torquey little Makita DCS 520i is so attractive I can't keep my eyes off of it. Hmm...Blue...Blue...Blue...

    Brad try it as a center piece on the kitchen table. I think you will find it adds to the room.

    Good looking saw; is that your $200.00 bargain saw? Pawn shop near me has a used one for $180.00; I wonder what they'd take for it.

    I rebuilt a carb (actually two, but I only got caught doing one) on part of the kitchen countertop. I thoroughly cleaned it first, and was very careful not to make a mess. My wife didn't say much, but if looks could kill......

    Never underestimate the power of the written word. Spelling is important, but poor sentence structure and bad puncuation are what can really come back to bite you on the ass.

    I will take the "Pullon," "green brick," and "Crapsman" chainsaws that you don't want.

    Y'all come on over to my house. We can put a tarp over the kitchen table, work on our chain saws, and play poker. When the cigar smoke gets too thick, my wife will bug out to my daughter's house to play with the grand kids. My wife knew life as she had known it was over the first time I spread a tarp over the living room floor and pushed my motorcycle in to work on it. As long as everything else stays nice and clean, and tools aren't left laying around, she's happy.

    I'm lousy at poker (no, I won't bring any money or valuables!), but do enjoy working on saws and the occassional cigar. When I get my work space set-up, I'm thinking about having a phone line installed so that I can BS on the computer while working on saws or whatever. Aw ra best!

    Pallis, what's up with the Jred that you "won't crank on any more?"

    Chris I thought things would be better when I put my shop up. Now I catch a case of the arss for being in the shop to much. I also caught it for working on stuff in the house. Im convinced now my wife just needs to vent so Im un hooking the phone in the shop and installing locks. I tend to play my lascala's a little loud, as in the pictures shake on the walls of my parents house 5 acers away. My wife does not like to come in the shop and here the sound close up so she finds things like my ice tea to throw at me to get my attention=locks on the doors. I will report back if this is the ideal set up.

    My work 'space' is going to be part of the utility room, shared with the washer, dryer, and hot water heater. Also our door to the backyard is in the utility room. So I can't lock my wife out, unless I agree to do the laundry and keep the dogs with me. Not exactly condusive to getting any real work done. Unless my wife or the animals really get to me, I won't spend too much time there-it's a small space with no windows, & I'm somewhat claustraphobic. I don't freak out in tight spaces, but I certainly have no plans to take up spelunking (okay-who's going to have to look that up, eh? Ha, ha).

    I could see a ''cave explorer'' looking at a washing machine and viewing it as a parts washer.

    Lucky man, my wife has given up the garage as my shop but if I ever spread a tarp on the kitchen table, she would probably roll me up in it and dig a hole with the grinder somewhere in the yard.
    We the willing, led by the unknowing are doing the impossible for the ungrateful, and have done so much for so long with nothing, we can now do anything with nothing.

    The dishwasher works much better, but is much more likely to get you neutered with your own chainsaw.

    Recently I rebuilt a string trimmer carburetor at my desk in the bedroom. My girlfriend did NOT like the smell of gas and made us both sleep on the pull out couch in the living room. My back still hurts.
