I always thought a racing cab with my toilet as the seat would be awesome. It would give crap MAME a whole new meaning. |

I'm always struggling with setting up my (home made) circle cutting jig in the right position... |

I have a circle jig but only use it if I need a very specific circumference. For circles or arcs that only need to be "close" these PVC "templates" are great time savers. This is the most ridiculous arc I ever routed. It was as stupid as it was fun. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,116519.msg1277723.html#msg1277723 |

I take it you are like me in that you don't trust your own eyes when it comes to cutting to a line. I watch a lot of woodworking videos on YouTube and I'm always amazed at how they can cut close to a line and then just "clean it up" at the disc sander or whatever and it looks perfect - smooth curve or straight line - they just eyeball it. If I can build a jig to make something precise - that's what I'm going to do. |
