Re: Video: Shim-Cutting Jig for the Tablesaw

Maybe I'm just Too stupid but I can't tell what he is doing. I can guess and make a jig like that. But wait, I did. When making tapered legs for tables. The waste looked like two foot long oak shims. You can be sure I used them up. Video quality is awful. Shoot it again.

Re: Prediction 2010: Granite Countertops Are So Last Decade

I also predicted the out-dating of granite counter-tops to come about soon. Never liked them, never seen these mass market installers make a decent seam, hate the germ filled joint between the slab and sink, cold, too hard. Same can be said for quartz. But it just irks the heck out of me that people can take a material, millions of years in the making, use it temporaraly (10-20 years), and then just toss it out in the garbage next to the Almond appliances of yesterday. I think solid surface is realy the only forever material for counter-tops.
