Try cutting through 1.5" thick computer flooring with one.....takes FOREVER, and ruins the cutter pretty fast.

Try cutting steel with one, then you know what scary is... ;)

I'm not man enough.  I also don't know how to quote 2 posts so:

"Try cutting through 1.5" thick computer flooring with one.....takes FOREVER, and ruins the cutter pretty fast."

Carbide tipped holesaw, the SVT (or HiWatt) of holesaws.  I've used 4" and 6" diameter ones to cut thousands of circles out of 3/4" MDF.

I wanted the adjust-ability of the circle cutter I used.  I like being able to dial it into a lot of different sizes.

If you look down to any previous quote (within 15 or so) and you'll notice over to the RHS where it says "insert quote" and you can have as many as you want... ;)

All this time I would hit quote on one post, copy it, go back, and then hit quote for the next post I wanted to quote and paste the first one in. I never even noticed the 'insert quote' function! Ya learn something new every day!

Makes perfect sense to me.

Probly too late now but I was thinking today that a tigerstriped maple top painted Classic Sunburst would be cool as HELL on a Billy Bo!  8)

Hmmmm...Nobody likes my Sunburst idea. How 'bout Moonburst, then?  8)

I was out of town for a few days and just saw this.  I'm a big fan of burst, but this one's probably gonna be trans cherry red.
