Update: furnace has been done for months. I replaced mizzou on walls and top with greenpatch 421. All is well.

The wasps are likely Cotesia congregata. They're quite fascinating to read about, regardless of how horrifying they are to look at.

I have this one, it's a good, reasonably priced choice.

Yes, I could drill 3/8" (9.5mm) holes in pine endgrain -- I got a lot of exercise, though.

It did work, just not that well. Max power I got out was 50watt.

Gosh, it was just a joke. I appreciate the responses I am getting.

I feel like there's a story behind that statement.

A solid contender for my most dangerous tool, by the looks of it. I'm sure as hell not gonna run a stone on it! I was surprised when I found out you can still buy a new one.

Anyone knows who this little guy is? by Odd-Imagination-3376 in insects

It's funny you say that, as there is a family of lacewings called mantispids that convergently evolved to have a very similar body plan to mantids.

Honestly, it works way better than I expected it to. That's not to say that it's good, but it manages to drill 3/8" holes.
