    taken down by the Drag Queens

    Actually I don't think the cage fighters were drag queens. The article says that these guys were going to a "fancy dress" party. In Great Britain, a fancy dress party is a costume party or our equivalent of a Halloween party. Who else would have the balls to dress like transvestites when going...

    X-Post from Comp & Tech forum: Pick me a new laptop

    You may want to reconsider a netbook if you plan on using Solidworks. Using a small display with Solidworks will be a real pain. If you plan on using a full blown recent version of Solidworks, you will need a fair amount of memory. SW has become a resource hog as of late.

    I finally got a STIHL!

    Both are good saws but I'm partial to Husqvarna. My guess is that the Husky dealer network is a little more extensive so you would have ready access to parts and repairs.

    I finally got a STIHL!

    Hey Bushwcker How does one learn how to do some recreational tree climbing? I was watching a couple of arborists the other day and was really impressed how fast they climbed. I have no intentions of doing any cutting while I'm in a tree. I'd just like to learn the skill.

    I finally got a STIHL!

    I've since found out the that wedges are your friend. I cut a 24" diameter oak over the weekend. Made my face cut and started on the backcut. I left about a 1" hinge and the tree would not drop even though I was using a pull rope and a comealong. I cut some more till the hinge was only...

    I finally got a STIHL!

    Smart idea buying a used chainsaw. I believe starting in 2010, many chainsaws will be equipped with catalytic converters to meet new EPA standards for 2 cycles engines. In fact, many of the 2009 chainsaws already have cats. If you plan on cutting on mature trees near your house, you may...

    proof that I do stuff other than talk sh*t on the internet!!

    Not to be anal but you are Mig welding, not Tig welding. Tig welding uses a nonconsumable electrode while Mig welding uses a consumable electrode.

    Obama and the New Yorker

    The guy responsible for the cover of New Yorker was on NPR yesterday. He said everybody would surely recognize the characterization of Obama as a Muslim and his wife as an activist as sarcasm. I'm not sure everyone see it that way.

    Who here owns a Compound Miter Saw?

    I have a Bosch 4410 and am quite happy with it. Check out the reviews on Amazon. I have really been impressed with Bosch tools.
