Yeah... That's why I got my power mitre saw...and I still cut a crooked line if I'm in a hurry.
I got it so I could make boxes for my tarot cards. If I get good enough at making the boxes I'm thinking of setting up a small business making them for tarot card collectors. Thats a ways down the road though...has to wait until I manage to do consistent quality on my own boxes.
The one I made the other day has wavy edges and a gap in the interior section. I know what I did wrong though so I'll work up the energy to make another one soon.
I started using a hardwood instead of basswood and that works a LOT better... I found a place online that sells hardwood sheets thin enough for my needs (1/8th inch thick...nobody local sells hardwood that thin.)
Ok...I'm babbling now....if I was starsongky I'd say I was tired...but I don't babble when I'm tired....I babble when I've taken ephedrine...and I haven't taken anything recently..except a few oreos...sugar high? Maybe...maybe.
