To my British Friends,
The discussions about terms used both here and in your country made me
wonder about other differnces. Since you drive on the other side of
the road from the US, does your left tilt table saws go the opposite
direction of our left tilt saws? Perspiring minds want to know.

Marc (and most of my future
posts will be serious, I promise)

Nope, but (due to coriolis effect), the blades on table saws do spin in the
opposite direction south of the equator

Ditto for all rotary tools: NEVER try a northen-hemisphere router bit in a
southern-hemisphere router... It's ugly.

Drilling? Foget it....

Cheers!
