  1. if anyone hasn't use FPE before, let me know as I have a referral discount code I can share with you. It gets 20%. Isn't Lily designing panels yet Nate?
  2. I decided to support the local guys at Woodcraft, and unfortunately also had to support Uncle Sam. I'm pretty excited to have it Believe it or not, when I demoed it at the store, the track wasn't even fastened down. I didn't realize that until today, when I asked about clamps. You couldn't even tell, it has a grippy surface underneath that apparently works. Also, word is that the De Walt tracks are interchangeable, so I might give that local guy a call. Festool makes a nice long track, but it's not cheap. Most people pay an extra $100 and just get a second 55" track and join them together. I'll wait before doing any extreme acrobatics with it until you're onsite, such as these: http://festoolownersgroup.com/festool-jigs-tool-enhancements/festool-ts55-comes-through-again/msg84036/ (though, I might need a jig like that.............)

  10. hey Hopstretch, do you ever send stuff back to the U S of A? I could really use some Kola Tonic (Clayton's or Rose's), and I bet you can get it there. I've been scammed twice trying to order it online from "reputable" .za websites.

  20. Remember the Maine Looking for something to do with that bottle of Cherry Heering? This delicious classic is the perfect answer. 2 oz. rye whiskey 3/4 oz. sweet vermouth 2 tsp. Cherry Heering 1/2 tsp. absinthe, or absinthe substitute Ice cubes Tools: mixing glass, barspoon, strainer Glass: cocktail Garnish: cherry Combine ingredients in a mixing glass, fill with ice and stir briskly for 20 seconds.

  21. Frisco Murray Stenson typically uses Old Overholt rye whiskey in this classic Bénédictine cocktail.

Bénédictine Ice cubes Tools: shaker, strainer Glass: cocktail Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake well for 10 seconds, then strain into a chilled glass.

  22. Gypsy Cocktail Dating to the mid-1930s, the Gypsy demonstrates vodka’s utility in drinks with strongly flavored liqueurs; here, the spirit’s neutrality gives the potent flavor of the herbal liqueur Bénédictine room to expand while also tempering the liqueur’s sweetness. 2 oz. vodka 1 oz. Bénédictine 1 dash Angostura bitters Ice cubes Tools: mixing glass, barspoon, strainer Glass: cocktail Combine ingredients in a mixing glass and add ice. Stir well for 20 seconds and strain into a chilled glass. Adapted from Esquire Drink Book, 1956

  24. yes, impedance control.
  25. careful about "solder stealing" if you add TH parts, since there is the possibility of these being machine assembled.
