It didn’t take much convincing to pick up this sweet, sweet mitre saw. I had received a mitre saw last year at Christmas to help out with building a deck in the summer (which…didn’t happen?) but then Mom found out that there was a safety recall on it. While cleaning out the garage last weekend, I figured I should finally return the saw considering it is the Christmas season once again.
After some cash put into my pocket, I checked the flyer and lo and behold, I had scored the big one. A SLIDING mitre saw for only a few bucks more than what I had received from the safety recall. Sweet! There were none in stock and it was pretty busy so I decided to return another day for the raincheck.
Last night Mike and I went into Canadian Tire to discover that there was one in stock, although it looks like it was already opened so I will spend a day on the weekend assembling it in case there is something wrong with it. It looks like a sweet, sweet utiilty. I am not sure how big it will be…the box is huge compared to the old one. Once assembled, I will determine if I need a rolling stand for it, or if it’s small enough to just place on top of a flat surface and use for awhile.
In other news about last night, I had the great pleasure of being witness to Mike having a wet ass. I suppose that when I threw my bag on the seat earlier, my swimming trunks weren’t as dry as I thought. We (alright, I) had a great laugh at his expense.
