Oh, I don't care about the plastic and more about the fingers. Lowering the blade has nothing to do with quality of cut, just safety.

Shorter time? Lol, that is funny.

It is oddly satisfying to watch you do the framing. It's all so square. It's fun to watch people in their element. It's really taking shape once you get those walls up. I can't wait ! I still have no...

It takes a big man to admit when you are wrong. Most would have used editing to skip the tribulations component, but it adds to the flow to follow your thought process.
