Do any of you have the Sawstop table saw? Most of the woodworkers on YouTube seem to have them. I've been using table saws for over fifty years, and I still have ten fingers. My first Craftsman had no safety features, unlike my current Ridgid. The Sawstop starts at $1,400 for the jobsite model - similar to my Ridgid ($485). I could sell the Ridgid for a couple of hundred (maybe), but that still leaves a large expense for something I don't use to earn a living.

Well, it's something to think about.

I was watching Stumpy Nubs - yes, that's his name - on YouTube, talking about his favorite tools. One of them is a Stanley 10' tape measure. He said that although it's small and short, it's good to keep handy, and he has about a dozen of them.

When I younger, I remember tape measures being 6' long. That wasn't an oddity. It was more or less standard, and I had a bunch of them. Now, the 25' tape is standard, and I have a bunch of them. It guess it's true what they say: Bigger is better.

I had a HD crash this summer and replaced with SSD and Win 10. I also replaced PS elements to 2020. Now all of my pics are squatty, things that are suppose to be round are now oval. I have tried every resolution in my monitor settings and it does change some but does not cure. I have shots with a different camera and get same results. Any thoughts? As is really turns me off to do any processing. I don't believe it is Elements either as when I just open a file from card reader it is out of round. Any help is appreciated!

Sent to me by a friend - thought it may give you a chuckle.


o ponder as 2020 draws to a close ...😂😆😜
1. The dumbest thing I ever bought was a 2020 planner.
2. 2019: Stay away from negative people. 2020: Stay away from positive people.
3. The world has turned upside down. Old folks are sneaking out of the house & their kids are yelling at them to stay indoors!
4. This morning I saw a neighbour talking to her cat. It was obvious she thought her cat understood her. I came to my house & told my dog.... We had a good laugh.
5. Every few days try your jeans on just to make sure they fit
6. Does anyone know if we can take showers yet or should we just keep washing our hands?
7. I never thought the comment, “I wouldn’t touch him/her with a 6-foot pole” would become a national policy, but here we are!
8. I need to practice social-distancing from the refrigerator.
9. I hope the weather is good tomorrow for my trip to work, the new out out!
10. Never in a million years could I have imagined I would go up to a bank teller with a mask on and ask for money.

Are Santa's reindeer male or female?

"Santa’s reindeer have been depicted as males throughout the media but science proves that these depictions are in fact wrong. Experts have stated that his reindeer are female as male reindeer lose their antlers in early December when mating season has ended, whilst female reindeer keep theirs throughout winter. As Santa’s reindeer’s are depicted with antlers, this can only lead to the conclusion that it is females that power the sleigh through the sky during the night of Christmas Eve each year."
