I was outside getting ready to stain some of the wine bottle stand I made. I opened the can of stain and realized I needed something to mix it with so I started to my garage with the can of stain in hand to do that well I tripped and the can went flying. I now have a patch of grass stained Cabernet but no stain to for my up coming project. I'm a bit up set that I did not the the coverage that was listed on the can.

I like the red color much better then the white that is covering my grass. Also my garage floor is pretty blue due to my hubby wanting to stir a can of paint.

I glad is just were it did a few feet ether way and it would have been my driveway or patio. Its funny you wanted a sample of green I'm going to be building a clock kit and I was going to use a green dye on it. From here on I'll try to remember to keep the lid on the stain when I'm moving it around.sigpic: Dan US Navy PR1 (Ret)

Reply to Question about tilting head sawsby RolfI have both types of saw A tilting table Hawk g426 and an Older Excalibur with a tilting head. Unlike Carole for bevel cuts I prefer the tilting head I do larger projects and it is easier for me.
Regarding compound cuts they are cut at 90 degrees.

Reply to Question about tilting head sawsby handibunnyIf you have a good saw, and can set the table accurately, you should be good to go. Give a holler if you need help. 😁
Randy, I swapped out the clamps on the Jet for the Pegas clamps as soon as they became available. I found the Jet clamps just too fidgety for my taste.-
