It's only a matter of time until some SWMBO comes up with a laser
attachment to keep fellas from missing the toilet bowl. :-)

A typo of _that_ magnitude?? Shocking, simply shocking.

And all this is done on self healing mats. When the cutting wheel cuts into
the mat, it heals. They can take an incredible number of cuts before they
need to be replaced.

Guess you could use one for that. That, and the first time sexual virgin
when he finally finds that initial willing female. Only thing worse for a
woman than a guy who goes too fast is one that misses the mark completely in
his excitement.

Hmmmmm... that gave me an idea, so I rushed out to the garage and got right
to work. FreA fresh roll of duct tape, my my dial indicator in hand, and a
spare broom handle that I keep around just in case the handle on my shop
broom ever breaks, and a few minutes of my time was all it took.
I took the laser head off an old CD ROM unit, duct taped it to the broom
handle (very rprecisely) - ensureing ing an even layer of duct tape ,
precise to within .00000001", and then cut a dutchman in thee end of the
handle. After cutting a matching dutchman int tI then cut the hanld offdle
off my shop broom exactly 6" up from the threaded end. I wish I had a
starlett (or whatever it is...) steel rule to have made sure I was exactly
at 6", but I don't own one soe I had to rely on a simple steel tape rule. I
cut a matching duunscrewed the stub from the broom head, cut a matching
dutchman in the cut off end of it, and then cut biscuits in both
cutdutchmans just for good measure. Using some Tightbond VII and some
borigorilla bluglue, I put the two pieces together and clamped them with 17
bar clamps. Then I mounted a 12V battery that my son had conveniently left
of then the fshop floor (afterwinterizing his boat) on the broom to power
the laser. Of course, I plan to eventually replace this with a ))0000 run of
of 220V pwer from my subpanel once I get it soldered into place., so the
batter is only temporary. Maybe some of the guys can give me some advice on
soldering up that 220V pigtail.
Should I go with 50 feet or more? Or less? What color should I use? ShAre
twist locks really necessary?
Either way - I now have the most accurate shop broom on the street. When my
neighbors see this tyhey are going to want one of thieeir own - or to borrow
mine. But... I don't lend out my stuff...
I'm also thinking of re-einforcing the dutchman with a handful of McNealry,
or McFealy, or whatever they are, fasteners. I don't know what to do
though - should I pre-drill them on my 17" floor model drill press or should
I go out and buy a table top drill press? Harbor Freight, or Grizz? UPS or
USPS?

Well, no, most of them use presses and cutting dies or CNC cutters
including laser.

Quilters do. I'm married to a quilter and as Lee indicated, rotary cutters
are pretty amazing. It's not unusual to fold or layer material and cut up to
ten layers at once.
Scissors are a reciprocating motion (snip open snip open). The rotary cutter
against a guide is just one quick Ziiiip.
The guides are typically clear Plexiglas with a grid printed on them. This
enables, cutting squaring and measuring all in the same function. it's
incredibly efficient

Perhaps it is a contemporary form of aversion therapy.
Every time he lights up, he gets zapped with a laser.

There was a misprint in the radio station's copy of the ad. It should
have read "taser smoking-cessation treatments". ;-)

If you guys need a laser to find THAT, you've been on the computer too long.

Well, that makes all sorts of sense. If you could hold the scissors
straight enough to keep the laser on the same line all the time, you
wouldn't need the laser to pinpoint the line. As it is, you are just going
to see the line wave left and right as you try to cut straight. Who was
the [sub]-genius who came up with that bit of fluff?

Anybody who requires precision in cutting cloth or paper uses a rotary wheel
cutter. NOT two dollar scissors with a funny little light built into it.
My wife is a quilter. She would take one look at this thing, pronounce it
junk, and toss it into the circular file.
Real sewing/quilting scissors approach what we pay for some serious bench
tools.
