        You'll get to drill a lot of holes with that puppy.  Good deal there.  Now just get you a good vice to go with it so you won't be breaking a finger holding onto some little part to drill a hole in it.  That's why I have never upgraded my old Crap-man.  I can stop it with one hand.  Old one half horse that will drill holes all day long but when a drill bit gets stuck I can still hold on to the part until I get it unstuck.   

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

Only reason I still have my left thumb is due to the slipping belt on my old variable speed Do-All drill press. :-[ :-[ I got REAL lucky that day. Drill bit chewed me up real bad when the battery cable eyelet snagged and wrapped the cable around my thumb and the bit. If not for the slipping belt that bit would have sawn my finger right off. I was very lucky ........................and just a bit wiser.  :-[

the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
