Hi gang

Just a ham-handed do-it-yourselfer willing to spend a weekend on a job that would take a pro an hour to do. Just to save $20, haha!

Look forward to exploring the forum and asking some dumb questions!

Excellent! Welcome aboard! Glad you like the forums

Thanks Carl and Glasseyi! Going to be doing a lot of digging here, that’s for sure! First order will be to see what people think of the Rolair JC10 that I’m close to ordering.

Cheers!

Welcome and the only dumb question is the one not asked

From a fan of tools with lots of assistance from Siri #TIACREW

Thanks Tony! I’ve been a shopping fool as of late, and this site isn’t curbing that any! Looking at the Kreg K5 pocket hole jig after seeing some videos on them. Of course they are a few years old now, so probably be a K6 around the corner…

Live Free or Die baby!!!!!! Love the north woods, spent some time atv’ing at Jericho last year and do quite a bit of hiking up there but believe it or not, I DO NOT SKI!!!!! The femur is a big honking bone and I’ve seen those break on the trails!

Ha, tell me about it… Recovering from an auto accident from a couple months ago. Smashed hip, split the ball in half, broke femur… Just started putting some weight on it.

Femurs are also meant to stay on the inside of your leg! I’m pretty sure if I went skiing that would not be the case for me! Oh and welcome to the forum by the way!

Hah, thought some of you might get a kick out of the hardware! I’m pretty sure there are a couple deck screws in there!

Wild,

rest easy and get well, I know it hurts …..

I had pins in my hips when I was young  same spot !!! Treated for a slipped epiphysis …. Hardly walked for 3 years…

They are in my safe now, they took them out… Sure as hell look like stainless steel deck screws !!!!

Thanks for the encouragement fg! These will be staying put, unless I end up with an artificial one.

Welcome to the crew Todd!!
