snip of long, rambling post

Bas.

Two questions:

1) If you spent the grand, would you end up in a van down by the river
with no power or high speed internet?

2) And would the significant other in your life go with you?

You're a hobby woodworker. Why does economics of a tool purchase matter?
It's all fun and vanity. Does it matter that someone here may have spent
$2k on a shiny new tablesaw to make cutting boards? Not to me.

If the money is there, spend it. Then write a long and rambling post on
why it makes a really neat garbage can screen fence, with sapwood matched
fence boards handculled from the stacks at the local Orange Borg.

I enjoyed that, charlieb.
