My father in-law does. It would mean a trip to Hammonds Plains.

I'm going to need something for about a week at least. I see them on sale at CT tomorrow, I might as well just buy one.

I have one as well that you can likely use.... but they are handy to have around if you're just going to pick one up.

If you can get one that has interchangeable blades (one for normal biscuits, one for micro-biscuits) it'll add another layer to what you can do.

In any case, be sure to use a good polyurethane glue if it's for an outdoor project.

Yeah, I'm a firm believer in not borrowing tools - if you have a project, that needs a biscuit joiner, buy one :-) I really need to start one of those projects!

Still haven't even cut the wood yet. Need to find sombody with a table saw. I don't think my circular saw will do it good enough to make good glue joints.

Oh, got the maple off kijiji out in Brookside. Guy is selling it rough, but had 8 stair treads that he repossessed from a non payer and was unloading them. I need to cut them to dimension and glue them together.

I can loan you one as well. I haven't used it in a few years and don't have any plans for it anytime soon. I live in Hubbards, but work in the city and all over the province.

I've got one of those mastercraft portable table saws that you could use.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Thanks for the offers. I'll be hitting some of you up once I get my act together.
