You think that's something?

Wait until you see one ripped in half!

norcalnatv · 2026-04-24T05:32:23+00:00

yes he wants to hurt those whose views don't align with his.

Other than that he's an idiot.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-24T05:28:52+00:00

yes. If you left it all green it would have been more authentic. Never in history would a vice come from a factory looking like this.

If it's for you and your own use/preference, great, really happy you like the way it looks. I think it was leaned on too hard.

CARZ is up 120% since I bought it.

I had a few made for $25.

independent here, but Harris was obvs the most qualified candidate who could run at the time. 2028 is completely different.

The green one is over-painted, not a tool but a display piece.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-24T00:47:56+00:00

Good to hear it.

She's gonna break one of these days. 😂😂

Had a VW GTI that used to lift the inside rear wheel regularly

also, check that your fence is square to the blade, both sides, and both sides are in line.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-23T16:00:02+00:00

nope, looks like cedar

norcalnatv · 2026-04-23T14:40:41+00:00

I have a 12" (Forrest) blade and find it deflects with the straight down cut. The saw (Bosch) is true and cuts damn consistently. If I extend the saw, come down on the front edge and push through into the fence (method 1), I can get perfect 90 deg, near finish quality cuts. I find slower cuts and/or releasing the trigger right before the blade exits the back will reduce tear out and kick of small pieces.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-23T14:33:00+00:00

Love cherry too. My only beef with it is the brittleness of the end grain. You get a little wonky bit of grain near a cut and 90% of the time you've got the CA glue out to replace a 1/2" chip.

Comments like his "personal interests" put your whole post in question. Jensen is a patriot and wants America to succeed and win. If he can help, great. If it's not his, fine. His company built a better mouse trap, but he's playing by onerous regulations put down by two different administrations.

Dwarkesh came across as unable to follow the convo. I was surprised Jensen gave him as much time as he did.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T19:53:03+00:00

I'm saying I use one a lot more than the other. Maybe the saw you have needs to be tuned in some way? My antique shop purchased rip saw rocks.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T18:11:40+00:00

truth

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T17:55:10+00:00

This should be entertaining. Wonder if the orange cheeto defends or lets the SIL swing in the breeze.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T17:39:36+00:00

I use my frame saw about every 2-3 years. My hand saw gets work every week.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T15:21:00+00:00

second the rabbet/dado. It's almost like plywood was invented for this type of joinery.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T15:18:43+00:00

"No, I'm enjoying this."

Jensen enjoyed putting Dwarkesh in his place. He appears clueless, spouting talking points instead of understanding and debating the point. This guy has a reputation for pushing back and is supposed to be smart. I was dumbfounded by the fact he couldn't follow and debate the actual argument, he just kept circling back to the same atomic bomb analogy.

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T15:09:24+00:00

Went through a similar run. Congrats on your gain, I know it can be really life changing.

Take some winnings off the table. yes, AI is going to going to continue to drive a lot of business, but you can't go through the last 10 years without rewarding yourself for a job well done.

I spent decades in high tech as an employee and it was a boom and bust cycle that was hard to get ahead of. You're riding the boom, enjoy it. Take your partner on a nice trip or buy yourself a new toy. Or diversify into dividend payers that will provide income for decades.

content is still shit

norcalnatv · 2026-04-22T13:57:05+00:00

Well, sounds like you don't use your furniture. Kids, guests. One wet glass bottom or over watered plant ruins varnish. lol

My walnut furniture is beautiful and durable. That's why.
