    You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice ruclips.net/user/postUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.

    Acotland is apparently the only country in the world wgere Coca Cola is sold, but it's not the #1 soft drink. Irn Bru outsells it something like 10:1, although due to recent government mandate, they reduced the sugar content. There used to be 34g of sugar in a 330ml can!

Watching myth busters got me into engineering and the scientific process and inspired to go to college in the pursuit of an engineering degree from NC state. Getting to watch these one day builds and seeing the ingenuity at work is awesome. Getting to your level of craftsmanship and creativity is something that I am striving to learn and hopefully put to good use later in life. Just wanted to let you know how appreciative I am for keeping science and engineering cool.

    Adam, at this point the video is 3 yrs old. I hope you learned about riving knives since then.
    I once had an uncle come over to rip form spreaders for concrete forms. We used my old Sears. He kinda protested which side I ripped on...but he was a shop teacher at a high school before retiring. I said, "Uncle, I worked in a hardwood lumber mill for four years. I feel confident in using this old saw any way I want." He calmed down. I had some Fat Tire ale in the fridge. He had never tried it. It was a nice visit. I'm not sure what beer he really likes. Were both German American but he's pretty straight laced and conservative. Its kinda sad. Our original immigrant ancestor was listed as a Cooper on the 1860 Census. None of us has made beer that I know of. It's on my bucket list. Grandma's side was Bavarian. Dad's side was Prussian. I think it will be a nice Pilsner style. Nothing too fancy at first. Maybe a Hefeweissen later.
    You know, you could go beyond just bagpipes if you're in the mood for Scottish culture. I like Dick Gaughan. His Redwood Cathedral was pretty interesting. Might ken ye to a more subtle, emotional side.

  • @templerea5262

    Irn-Bru has been made in Scotland for 120 years. Right from the start their adverts featured athletes engaged in typically Scottish sports that require great strength such as Tossing the Caber. This is a sport where (in very basic terms) the athlete throws a 20 foot long, 180 lb telegraph pole so that it flips end-over-end.
    Since the 1980s it has been advertised with the tagline "Made in Scotland from girders" usually featuring drinkers of Irn-Bru becoming unusually strong, durable, or magnetic.
    Irn-Bru is made and sold in USA. The version sold in America is slightly altered from the original to comply with FDA regulations. It is generally available where there is a significant community of people from Scotland.
