Spawn Of Satan

Dear Do-It-Yourself Store,

I shop at your store.

I do stuff at home. Building. Lighting. Home repair.

I shop at your store.

I just bought some 2x4s for a local junior high drama production. I was making a bed for a princess.

I shop at your store.

Here’s my question: what Spawn of Satan employee decided it was a good idea to put 12 staples in a 2×4? What, you need my blood on your floor to seal our deal from across the river Styx?

In the future, control the hordes of devils that pretend to represent your interests while seeking to wound your loyal customers.

Get behind me, Satan.

Oh, and good news. I overcame your metallic trap. The bed is almost ready for the princess. Temporary modeling by MrsMowry.

All boards must be inspected on all 6 sides (think about it) before they can go into the lumber pile.

2-6′ sides, 4-4′ stretchers, and 6-30″ legs.

The braces for the legs have to be cut on a 45* angle. Don’t tell Velda that I cut these with the blade guard out of the way.

Here’s why: cutting these triangular pieces didn’t work with the blade guard in place. So, yes, I was very careful.

See? All 10 pieces cut. No blood shed in my shop … after avoiding the staples put in the lumber by the Spawns Of Satan, I wasn’t going to have a problem in the workshop.
