Post: RE: European Hinge Jig?
I used the Kreg jig on the last couple of doors I installed.  It worked well for me and if nothing else it made it convenient...set it up and then no measuring.   If you're just doing a door or two it...

You might want to think about a Carter Stabilizer.  I put one on my 10" Inca .... it works really well and you can cut some tight radii.  I don't think Carter lists it for the Inca but they do/did car...

Post: RE: Toilet vent pipe..cast iron to asbestos
Do you think the asbestos pipe was cheaper than steel pipe.  I ask because the vent for the sink which ties into the vent for the toilet is steel.  We are talking about 8 to 10 feet of pipe.

I tried some Powertec blades for a 733.  They worked OK but I didn't think they cut as well as the DeWalts.  Just an opinion ...no test to back it up.  I buy the DeWalts now.
