All the SAD sufferers have my sympathy..I know a couple of people who suffer and its like all the energy has been sapped out of them. I'm the total opposite (and a freak)..Winter is my favourite time of year and I love winter cycling. The summer months are my least favourite, my dad thinks I'm...

Hello Chip

Nice!(y)

The last time I made an impossible dovetail, I'm pretty sure (iirc) I cut the tails at 45. As opposed to cutting square and planing the faces at 45, the end result is probably the same. Some of those made mine look damn good:ROFLMAO: The daft thing on this challenge was there are numerous large...
