...Vice, or Vise? 

When I worked for Adjustable Clamp Company, we manufactured Jorgensen vises...  and it was always a pet peeve of mine when people misused vice - or vise.  I always told them a vise is a table-mounted clamping devise and a vice is a bad habit.    There spelling and grammer wernt no good neither.

What's your favorite game?

Its a toss up actually lately I wound up getting dragged back into world of warships, but I also enjoy Kerbal Space Program a lot of simulators as well.  its a nice hobby to have when its doing nothing but raining or too cold outside.  My main pc is a beast built it myself specifically for gaming.  I didn't even consider getting into recording and editing video yet here it is today I am doing it so I'm glad I built a pc that can handle it.

Makes it very easy to see why so many people have a hard time with English.

Too many words that are pronounced the same with different spellings, and meanings.

 

...I have four vises, does that mean I have a vise vice? 

I think I'll give it a break, or is it a brake?

Jim, first thank you for your response about the wax or grease on the screw and cutter.  I posted pictures today of waxing my tools.  

 

Also, congratulations for making Joiner.  Keep them coming.

Just agreeing with you, Larry.  And, they still allow me here, but I have no clue as to why.  :-)

Probably because we have the ability to laugh at ourselves.
