Default The right tool ...

I just caught the beginning of a commercial ... some
woman was cutting slices of some kind of roast with
a chain saw. She'd fit right in with you guys.

The theme of the commercial was the wrong tool for
the job, apparently you need some mop thing to wash
your bathroom walls.

Only if she kept the roast steady by using a foot.

I thought that was what mitre boxes were for....
Of course you use a jig saw to cut fancy cheese shapes for the
holidays, right ?

On a more serious note, have you ever seen a comercial bread slicer ?
It looks just like a multi-band band saw.

A former room mate used to keep two toilet brushes. One for the toilet,
and one for everything else. Worked very well with the plastic inset
bathroom we had during the college years.

Of course! Who was that silly person here with a relative
who used chain saws on frozen chickens? Listen to Dean.

It was just funny it came up so recently, under the Hardware
in the kitchen thread, and voila, there it was on tv.

I've only seen the ones at the bakery, they'd put in a loaf
and with much noise and rattling, it would run wires through
the loaf. I wonder now if the thing was adjustable for thinner
slices.

There you go, assuming everyone stayed on the same page
and kept the two brushes for their assigned job. That's a
problem around here and I'm not the culprit.

I never had this much trouble before. Just taking down
the old ones has been like a Chinese puzzle.

The curtains will be the easy part once I get to the
hardware store to replace the missing level. Nothing's
ever easy. The blinds are giving me fits.
