    hacksaws?

    Snap-on Tops & Bottom

    I bought them years ago. Or much money for them- $300. Couldn’t find the numbers until recently. I suspect they are 70s -80s but not for sure. They are in really good shape overall. The bottom cabinet drawer doesn’t wand to stay closed all the way. But only sticks out a couple of inches...

    McDowell & Craig (?) Metal Table Legs are not correct

    I got 2 routers for Christmas 2021 and haven’t them or any for that matter. So for now it’s a starters set but I don’t like HF or similar “brands”.
