Anyone have use of a table saw today or tomorrow?

Want to start making the stand for my new tank today.. Patience is not my strong suit when it comes to my corals.. images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

My neighbour has a small table saw with a good blade that I might be able to get tomorrow if it is a nice day.

If you can't get a hold of a table saw. I used a power hand saw for the majority of cuts on my hood and stand and had a table saw available. I just had a good straight edge/guide.

Thanks Troy.. my only options are bothering Marc in Chilliwack. Which I dont' want to do.. Long drive and he has company. Or paying windsor plywood to make the cuts.. Which again I dont want to do.. Being cheap here. images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

You did yours with a Skil saw? you doing anything tomorrow.. images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Heyya guys! images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif,


Darren,

I think they (our company) will be going to theyre parents tonight for dinner(unsure of time just yet),so you are welcome to use it if you want tonight....i must warn you tho,it has been sitting rusting in my carport for awhile(before that,my fishroom) so everything is seized up on it(the fence especially)so it makes it a little difficult to use.....but if its just for the 2x4 portion of the stand it would be fine......but if its finishing work i probably would say your better off saving your self the trouble.I have since resigned it to rough cuts only now.

It seems all my tools have paid the price of being in the same room as 1100 gallons of 80 degree saltwater. images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

(i will reply again when i know a time they will be leaving if you want Darren)
Marc.

I'll be in Vic on friday as a matter of fact.. handing in that damned ID card of mine.. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marc.

Keep me posted.. I am not staining this stand.. many layers of paint.. and as well putting moulding on the edges etc.. so it doesn't need to be perfect..

do you have the wood already or are you buying it?

FWIW, everytime i bought wood from HD, theyve made all my cuts for free...maybe about 10 cuts or so...youre mileage may vary.

Darren, you'd be welcome to make you cuts over here when you're in vic if you'd give me a hand with my stand. We've got it all.
