Wifeofgrouching has tasked me to build her a bench for our


May 1, 2021, 12:41 PM

entry area, something to store shoes and such. Christ on a #### cracker, I suck at using a circle saw. There will be zero right angles on this thing. Really should have bought the massive mitre saw instead of just the 8-inch one a few years back, would have saved me a lot of aggravation.

If you're that worried about it, and I don't blame you,

you can look into renting one at HD or Lowes probably. Just have your cut list ready, and make all the cuts at one time.

Or borrow someones.

Good luck

I dream of the day wife asks me to do some manly project

That I can turn into a career and spend weeks of peace and quiet doing. She knows better though.

Buy one


May 1, 2021, 1:45 PM

Disappear into the garage for hours

Make random sawing and hammering noises

Carry in purchased bench covered in sawdust

Something about milk & freezers


Profit.

Pro tip...

Circle saws only cut circles.

You’re welcome

Whoa there. The best thing about projects is you get to

buy a new tool.

Yeah, c'mon!

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-fatherg-110.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Right now it’s buy the tool or buy the lumber.


May 1, 2021, 7:05 PM

Ain’t gonna be both at these prices.

Not UDP enough.***

Well finish that up before early June


May 2, 2021, 8:45 AM

We're coming through the area and based on how starved I am for socialization, I'll probably drop in on everyone I know, including you.

My wife just bought that exact thing. Wasn't too expensive. She knew better than to ask me. Just go that route.

Use a speed square as a guide for the short cuts.


May 3, 2021, 8:15 AM

Go to Harbor Freight and get a strait edge for like $9.00 for any longer cuts. Lastly, get a piece of that thick foam board to put the wood on. The cuts will enjoy being supported by that foam.
