This has been my week for working under a black cloud. Elsewhere I posted about an acrobatic cell phone and its ultimate departure from this electronic world.
On Tuesday I was cutting crown molding and made a cut and saw sparks, heard terrible sounds, and ran away from the saw. The saw blade had cut into the metal base of my Hitachi SCMS. I looked and saw that the metal casting that the stop bolt - which limits the depth of cut - had broken away. The blade was trashed.
I needed to finish the job and luckily a local dealer had one Kapex in stock. I had been planning to purchase one from an online dealer here in the near future, but I needed to finish.
What a sweet saw the Kapex is! Finished up that job and moved on to the next. This one I did it right with the Kapex inside and the CT-22 sucking dust. Saved so much walking time.
I need to tweak the lasers a tiny bit, but other than that - WHY THE HECK DIDN"T I DO THIS EARLIER!
By the way, one of my upcoming projects needs to be a man sized doghouse. Doubting spouse syndrome. Anyone have plans?
