Get the Kreg Concealed Hinge Jig for doing the door hinges. And I think I have the same Suizan pull saw, they are slicker than cat poop on a linoleum floor as my Grandpa used to say.

I had already bought hinges. I didn't think they were the euro style. But seems they are. So I guess I'll grab one.

Thinking hard about buying the Makita corded track saw. They've been selling the saw for 12 years without a change. So has to be good right? TBH the reason I'm thinking about is due to the cost of the track. Milwaukee tracks are over twice the cost for some reason.

'Only' about $730ish for the saw, 2 55" tracks, connector kit, and a pair of track clamps.

Got lucky af. Couldn't make it to KMS the last 2 days. So go today. Today is their 40th anniversary. If you spend over $500 you get $60 off. So saved on top of the sale price of the track saw. Grabbed the saw and 2 55" tracks.
 
Canada post supposedly has the lowrider CNC waiting for pickup. Didn't even attempt delivery just dropped slips off in the community mailbox. I remember when they would actually bring large packages to the door to at least see if someone was home. I mean at least they didn't leave it on my doorstep.

Really excited to get it assembled and get it up and running.

Nice grab. The lumber yard I used to work at was a Makita dealer, they've always made pretty good tools.

Got all my woodworking measuring tools / jigs from banggood and I'm very impressed with them all.

Princess Auto had their Pro Point parallel clamps on sale today so I grabbed the 4 48" ones I they had. $55 each IIRC.

My 'budget' woodworking setup is almost complete. Just need a planer. There is a mastercraft one (with stand) selling for $150 on FB. May consider it. Hmm.

My Makita hand sanders are going to be put to use this fall during our reno of the basement. I know they aren't the best on the market, but I've never had issues with them.
