    Fellow scottish Adam here. Pronunciation on Irn is the same as Iron. The old advertising slogo for Irn Bru was "Made in Scotland from girders".
    Acotland is apparently the only country in the world wgere Coca Cola is sold, but it's not the #1 soft drink. Irn Bru outsells it something like 10:1, although due to recent government mandate, they reduced the sugar content. There used to be 34g of sugar in a 330ml can!

    Adam, at this point the video is 3 yrs old. I hope you learned about riving knives since then.
    I once had an uncle come over to rip form spreaders for concrete forms. We used my old Sears. He kinda protested which side I ripped on...but he was a shop teacher at a high school before retiring. I said, "Uncle, I worked in a hardwood lumber mill for four years. I feel confident in using this old saw any way I want." He calmed down. I had some Fat Tire ale in the fridge. He had never tried it. It was a nice visit. I'm not sure what beer he really likes. Were both German American but he's pretty straight laced and conservative. Its kinda sad. Our original immigrant ancestor was listed as a Cooper on the 1860 Census. None of us has made beer that I know of. It's on my bucket list. Grandma's side was Bavarian. Dad's side was Prussian. I think it will be a nice Pilsner style. Nothing too fancy at first. Maybe a Hefeweissen later.
    You know, you could go beyond just bagpipes if you're in the mood for Scottish culture. I like Dick Gaughan. His Redwood Cathedral was pretty interesting. Might ken ye to a more subtle, emotional side.

  • @templerea5262
    @templerea5262 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Adam, a riving knife will substantially reduce your kickback risk. Most safety gear gets in the way, not these. I have one on my sawstop and I only need to remove it when I install the dado blade.

Even though it's a digital space, the physical concept of assembly line production still yields improved efficiency. Important lesson for anyone involved in STEAM work.

Watching myth busters got me into engineering and the scientific process and inspired to go to college in the pursuit of an engineering degree from NC state. Getting to watch these one day builds and seeing the ingenuity at work is awesome. Getting to your level of craftsmanship and creativity is something that I am striving to learn and hopefully put to good use later in life.
