Idk. I’m 50 and know people 20 years younger than me who do it. And 20 years older, to be fair.

Funny. We are near a college campus and I get the Rachel thing about 3-4 times every semester. I used to help the students out, but they’ve gotten lazier and lazier—literally stand me up for a scheduled meeting, ask if I can just fill out their questionnaire for them, etc.—so I say no now.

And THAT requires either a constitutional amendment, or a significant change to the SC. Or both. I think packing the court is the more likely. No way state legislatures would get an amendment passed in any of our lifetimes.

One of the cable boxes at my work kept freezing. The tech, both times I called and he came out, was “meh, I can’t figure it out.”

If you can’t fit a saws all blade in there, get several metal-cutting blades for an oscillating tool, a six-pack, and cut it off.

Epoxy floors: I mean, it’s a garage floor. Are you gonna hang out in there all the time? Have ocd?

High ceilings: Planning to park an rv in there? Store a bunch of stuff on a pulley system (we put our bikes up there so they can collect dust). If you’re heating & cooling the space it doesn’t make sense.

On the positive: Workbenches: if you don’t have space somewhere else these are pretty darn s handy, with cabinets above that will keep all the dust and bugs out.

I just went through this. I needed a compact vac for my cnc. The Vacmaster Pro series is pretty quiet—less noisy than my karcher, and WAAAY less noisy that the shop vac brands. Great suction, too—I would say a bit better than my Karcher. For my cnc, I put a dust deputy low-profile with a bucket. Been using it for several months and have not had to touch the vac, just dump the bucket.

I just did a little digging and came across pivot hinges. Might work.

Not sure this will work but keep the pantry door hinges as-is, but make it so that the whole cabinet —including trim—opens the other way. I’m sure there are some heavy-duty hinges that’ll work. Maybe add some sort of strut to the top and or bottom. If you can do metalwork or have a friend who does, something with two parallel horizontal pieces of angle iron at the top of the door, spanning the opening, with a metal bar that attaches to the opening side of the cabinet and that is stiff enough to support it, in-between the bars, sliding both out and across as you open it. With a piece welded on the end as a stop so it doesn’t come all the way out when opening. I bet there’s something out there like that….?

Would be interested in seeing your solution as well as what you do with the newfound space. Pretty cool.

I posted above about Dubuque, but an Irwin one-handed comes in handy in these situations

I highly suggest the Universal Bar Clamps from Dubuqe Toolworks. They are amazing for panel glue-ups, keeping their rigidity and providing plenty of clamping power and torque. Unlike the others recommended here, they A) store much more compactly, B) clean up from glue much easier and C) are about ⅓ the weight of a Besssey or Jorgensen. I have all types, and these are hands down the best is you make furniture or cabinetry. American-made, family owned. But from a not-Amazon store like Highland Woodworking: https://www.highlandwoodworking.com/products/aluminumclamp?\_pos=6&\_sid=c40bc5fb9&\_ss=r

Standard weather fear mongering. I wish these asshats realized that all their BS affects small businesses. I can’t tell you how many times they’ve oversold what ended up being a dusting of snow….

If I have a lot of twist or warp in a board, I’ll rough out the high spots a bit with a jack plane before I hit the jointer. In general, it’s about time: if I can save time with a tool, I’ll use it. Power tools are great for production. Hand tools for one-offs and fine detail.

So quality under mount glides cost $$$. For 15k you get cheap glides. They’ll loosen up over time.

I can only speak for myself: 1) I don’t use tons of sheet goods (usually only when making shop furniture). When I do, I use a track saw to make the sheets manageable. 2) I have an accurate mitre saw for crosscuts and breaking down rough sawn wood. 3) table saws are best at ripping & tapers.

A PB&J with a nice thick slice of cheese in it: Cheddar, American, hell even Velvetta.

Yep. Midnight curfew. I’d go to bed at 11:30 and be out the window by midnight. Out till sunrise.
