Re: Show Your Setups / Tool ****


I eye-ball that bow-wrench everytime I'm at Lee Valley, I take it you are a fan?

The deck-doohickies look neat but a bit of a unitasker no?

Re: Show Your Setups / Tool ****


Oh I would think so, looks very efficient.

Just like breaking a job down into its smallest parts, similar to that of the assembly line; always more efficient. My reaction was more of the "another specialty tool that only serves one application".

Lately with my best efforts to trim down on specialty tools and unnecessary gear I look at things that only do one task with more scrutiny. But then again I can count on one hand the number of decks I've built.

Re: Show Your Setups / Tool ****


I don't part with anything it just goes in a rotation from my usual bunch of tools to a corner of the van then finally to the basement.....where it sits with the rest of the forgotten but still loved tools.

...I get reminded often about them "why do you need 4 of these saws?! don't you already have one of these? can I throw this out?! why don't you sell this junk" ....yes dear
