rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - When I first got this saw, it took me a couple minutes to figure out the blade installation. Once I realized there was a sticker right on the saw pictorally showing the procedure, it was easy. When installing the blade, I loved the way the tightening...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - Got this player about 4 months ago at the same time as I bought a new TV and theater package. I've been relatively happy with it, however, lately I've had this nagging voice in my head telling me I should have spent a little more and possibly gotten a...

Amazon.com: Shop Ama-zonwhere Else

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - The Super-Mega Online Store with all it's glory is all show and no go as far as I'm concerned. For the following reasons, I give Amazon a big two thumbs down:

Availability/Selection:

While you can find most anything on Amazon.com, it...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I bought one of these at work for use in plant maintenance. I had a hard time convincing the IS department that we should make an exception to the corporate standard (a Kodak Digital Science Camera) and allow me to purchase this camera. I finally won...

DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER IT!!!

DO NOT BUY THIS VAN!!!!

I am at 36,600 miles (conveniently 600 miles out of warranty I may add) and my transmission has completely failed! This transmission has a defect that WILL EVENTUALLY cause a pin to become loose...

MS (Gets your) Money 2001

Sun, 26 Nov 2000 12:09:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I purchased this package to keep track of where my money goes, and to eventually come up with a realistic budget. My goal was to track stupid expenditures and cut them out to free up more money for savings and investments.

In short, I found...

Does What I Need It To

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 15:43:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I purchased one of these about a week ago, and so far I am pleased with it. I looked at more expensive manufacturers like the DeWalt, and even fancier Makitas, but settled on this one.

My decision to get this one boiled down to the fact that...

(Maybe) I Shouldn't Have!

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I am a mild trekkie who couldn't wait for a good Star Trek Game to come out, so when I saw this one I ordered it with some of my "Gateway Bucks". To put it simply, I wish I could get my money back and pretend I never owned this game.

Good if you're careful

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I got one of these as a gift about 3 years ago, and at the time thought, "What will I ever use this for?" Since then I have found a few duties where this little guy comes in handy.

I titled my review "Good if you're...

Fire it Up

Tue, 11 Jan 2000 02:25:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - We have had these pans for about a year, and they are holding up pretty well. In one of the frying pans, the no-stick is starting to come off a very little, but I think that was caused by us scratching it.

The handles require re-tightening...

Oops, Me Too!

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I purchased this saw this fall, and although it hasn't failed me yet, I wish I had bought a better one.

I have a loyalty to Craftsman tools because I own a lot of wrenches, ratchets, screwdrivers, etc... And those tools are excellent. I have...

Might Have Kept It...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I have been wanting a Hi-Fi VCR for a while to hook up to my stereo system, so when these came on sale at Circuit City I wound up with one.

Overall I was impressed with this VCR which I got on sale for a mere $149. It provided a clean sharp...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - My overall impression of this stroller is fair, but there are just as many bad features as good.

The pneumatic wheels with bearings make this stroller glide along smoothly and effortlessly. The light overall weight is also a plus. Other...

Good enough for Fifty Bcks

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I got a gift card from Sears for $50 for my birthday about 4 months ago, and sort of had a scrollsaw in mind on my way there. I found out that this was what I could take home for $50, so it went into the bag.

This will be about the third time...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I first decided to try biscuit jointing about 1 month ago when building an end table for my living room. I borrowed this tool from a friend and took it home to go to work.

I didn't know much about the features since I had never shopped for...

Gets the Job Done

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 23:57:24 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I have owned this drill for a few months and overall, it does the job and has never failed me.

My final opinion, however, is if you can afford a little more cash spend it on a better drill.

The battery holds up well, and charges...

Sturdy, Quality, Simple

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 23:36:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I bought this exact jointer in Dec 1999 after very much research and price shopping. This jointer is in my opinion meant for the home woodworker wishing to make fine furniture, but not wishing to lay out a lot of cash for a closed base jointer.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ajweber - I purchased my DeWalt 12" Compound Miter about a month ago, and I am very impressed with it. I have worked with both hardwood and softwood, and with both I have found that I get a good clean cut with little or no edge roughness; even at sharper...
