    :thumbsup: there's usually more than one way to make cuts depending on what your doing. But shit happens. It was meant to be. I do absolutely hate the fence on that saw so that would be a change in the near future.
    At least I finished the projects!

    That and debris the board rolls over an it goes elsewhere.
    I dislike strongly the setup that's there but it's not mine.
    Either way, I tend to take extra time to check everything out an test, but in this case I was doing 100 things an didn't take the extra time.
    That's where most incidences occur. Not a very good investment. More patience is totally worth it.
    Thankfully it wasn't as bad as it could have been.
    Everyone can learn from this

    Early February I think. Hopefully, we'll get our mods done, powdercoated and installed by the end of the month.



    In other news, I ordered my UCAs and leafs the other day. Should be able to do the lift in a couple weeks when those arrive.

    Gonna be working on those tabs tomorrow. Sohail mentioned like the ones on the ARB bumpers. I just need to know hole sizes. I can drill a pilot hole and figure out later what the size needs to be. Just let me know what size your CB lug is.

    Absolutely. i don't like using table saws to cut plywood, for exactly that reason. When I do, I always use a pusher. My grandfather was a carpenter all his life, and managed to keep all his digits until his eyesight got to be too poor, and he had an incident with his shaper. :eek:

    New to me TRD faux beadlocks. Haven't mounted them though.

    :facepalm: I keep forgetting about this. I *think* it needs to be a 1/2 inch but I'll look tonight.
