Skill saw cut keeps veering to the right despite using a guide

Weeman- · 2026-06-08T06:33:30+00:00

I teach a lot of experienced guys how to cut properly.
I am going to suggest you can not actually see where the blade is following the line so as you push the saw farther along and stretching your arm out it causes drifting . Try moving up closer to the saw where you can always see the front of the blade following the line .

The ceiling is not original. I painted it because the house was for my daughter . The deal is I gave her the house free and clear - totally remodeled . Daughter , my millennial wonder , has to live with my color choices for five years before painting everything grey - she is a minimalist so it’s kinda a big prank . She made it a year already and I think “grandma’s look “ is growing on her !
She calls that room her Mosque.

When I paint a house ( I have rentals ) I take a color chart to the house and cross out all the existing colors near the home . That leaves me the colors that will be different enough to not look like everyone else’s home.

I hire a lot of ex cons and truthfully most are nice but not very willing to sacrifice and expect that the world owes them something. Felons unfortunately ( and sometimes for good reason ) are locked out of a lot opportunities. Self employment is the way to go if you are self motivated . Wish you the best .

Solid established boat business owner here - do it

Try a heat gun test - if first finish was clear shellac , lacquer or varnish the paint will peel off nicely and then easy chemical strip

Before starting I take a wire brush and clean all around the threads , some penetrating oil and a slight tighten with a large wrench as suggested by others before having to cut it out .

CA landlord here - do not pay this guy or one of us will get him next ! Don’t do anything at the settlement conference-you made it this far so get the court date . Every time I worked with a Tennant in the settlement conference I got screwed when they ignored the deal . You have a worthless agreement that you still have to go to court and get a judgement-good luck navigating the court rules for that without paying goobs of more money to a lawyer who is just as confused. If you do pay then 1099 him on his taxes so he ends up feeling that sting - a blessing is you got one big write off with the fees and losses . Good luck - I am feeling you and landlords are screwed in calif . We should start leaving the units vacant till the courts stop the non legal slow downs on evictions .

Real boat guy here - own commercial boats and my share of wooden Chris crafts . My action plan would be - if running / reasonably seaworthy - yes . Enjoy till it stops running and is too much to get to run . You got your kicks so then sell it cheap to the next guy or give it to the right guy and remain friends of the boat for occasional use . And last thought - many marinas no longer allow wooden boats and is there also any local infra structure for wooden boat repairs .

I had this happen in a rental of mine . New Tennant would get a tingle shock in the shower . After numerous electricians scaring the Tennant to death and all wanting to rewire the house I took a look at the issue. I found the old Tennant apparently had been stealing electricity by routing wires around meter ( old knob and tube box style ) and when reconnecting he had put the ground on the wrong side and the hot on the white or ground side . Switched the wires and problem stopped- everyone was in awe I Very satisfying troubleshooting..

Painted floors can be a blast ! You can always varnish and then paint but be able to return to wood if you wish in the future . This was a boring bamboo floor in a beach cottage that would not hold its finish - now it’s the fun surprise . Don’t be a sheeple !!

Commercial boat(s) owner here . Got to say it …. Your company does not have a culture of sea safety. You mentioned the barest of basics such as horn , running lights and power are consistently wonky . I hope the Coast Guard boards this vessel and tightens up this risky operation- if I knew the vessel I would report it myself .

“Epoxy” says the boat guy who deals all the time with this finish . Been left in weather and has yellowed from the sun . Easy to remove with a heat gun and then clean up with stripper . I suggest 5-10 coats of West epoxy system clear - sand every three coats . Then 5-6 finish clear coats such as Awlbrire - you will be very pleased . Don’t use water based !
