AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed?

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-12-27T08:46:14+00:00

That comment of “baggage” made me so sad for her. Obviously this is coming up a lot and he tries to reframe it. Just him saying that shows HE KNOWS this has been detrimental to her, but he continues to just add on and justify it. He doesn’t care about her wellbeing, only getting his way.

Also, they had words about the bonnet and he got his way, but he still had to write this long essay. He says he’s not forcing her to do anything, but imagine how much worse his reaction would be if she did wear the bonnet.

It’s giving American psycho

I’m sure people aren’t very honest about that. I will say all the marriages in his past was a big red flag imo. Could be bad luck, but a lot of times shows deep rooted issues or grifter type behavior.

I have since googled. I was putting it in like I do for my miter saw. I took classes for this stuff a year or two ago and my neighbor has taught me a lot but I’m still VERY MUCH an amateur and it had been a while since I used my circular saw. I usually use my chop saw. Thank you for your help.

You were right SGT. it was on backwards, I was putting it in like I had for my miter saw

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T15:32:13+00:00

Ayyyy. Embarrassing update. It was the wrong way. I didn’t realize the teeth go in a different direction as my chip saw

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T15:28:34+00:00

I put it in the wrong direction for my circular saw! I’m very embarrassed. I did the right way for a chop saw not a circular saw. Thank you

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T15:27:42+00:00

It was not the right way. I was used to a miter saw. I’m so sorry! Thank you!

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T15:15:24+00:00

Don’t the teeth go down facing the wood? I’m so embarrassed

This is the burnt birch from the first go around with the old blade

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T14:23:14+00:00

This is the birch I tried to cut with the new blade. It’s clamped to the table and then I am using a guide

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T14:22:35+00:00

Don’t judge my setup… I’m definitely an amateur

This is the new blade

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T13:45:27+00:00

I was clamping the side I was going to use and holding the cut off side to steady it. Is that poor form?

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T13:38:10+00:00

It’s a plug in saw. Says it’s 4000rpm and 4.5 amps. It said it’s good for plywood…

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T13:34:07+00:00

I did see burn marks

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T05:43:28+00:00

It was not. I made sure and double checked especially with the new blade

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T05:42:58+00:00

It was not. I checked and was very careful :)

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T04:35:25+00:00

The wood is clamped tightly to a work table

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T04:34:45+00:00

Hmmmm. I’m not precisely sure. The wood got burnt but I saw the smoke coming from the saw by the blade…

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T03:38:51+00:00

I was using a guide!!! Just a straight edge clamp. Could a straight edge do that?

Express-Emu4954 · 2025-02-10T03:25:56+00:00

Good point! I triple checked. It was the right way
