    Can I do anything with this?

    There is way too much good wood out there to try and turn that. Fire pile my opinion. But if you have a vacuum chamber you can resin infuse the whole thing with cactus juice product and then bake, I do that with all punky stuff.

    Jacob's chuck drawbar question

    I agree. Marble rolling pins are for the aesthetically aware And laminated dough enthusiasts. They are really only good as a show piece and making puff pastry, as you can cool the marble first. And they are really heavy, and if you drop on ceramic floor or marble countertop, they just got...

    Don't laugh. My friend builds like that, fake dovetails. Cuts side board then glues 5 little pieces together so looks like a dove tail, then dowels front to side pieces.

    India’s successful Moon Landing

    I think that's a huge problem in every developing country. They try and support the people with social programs, then it grows and grows until they are holding society hostage. Here in Canada , a few workres who moved away from the east coast , told me about the endless amount of people that sit...

    Buying cheap tools

    one of my ex girlfriend, dad was a white shirt at General Motors. And when they designed parts for cars , 98 % off all parts had to last 6 months past warranty. They were designed to wear out on the customers dime. They make nothing on a car, and all their money on parts.

    Wild fires in BC Canada.

    You know we have had ice ages, and then no ice age. That is huge global warming before any human activity. So those people have a point.

    Wild fires in BC Canada.

    very true. For years we ran around putting out every fire that was caused by lightning. we now realize a big mistake. we interfered with nature. we now have forests with so much dead trees etc in them so when they do ignite they have so much fuel. also if they did a lot more selective cutting...
