Treadle.

I can't seem to get the hang of controlling a motorized jigsaw for really intricate work, but lately I just have a friend with a laser
cutter run off my phonograph and loudspeaker grilles.

Wood works or Brass works?

I've never had red-lines. I do have white walls on the Caprice and the Colony Park.



Someday, when I get a 68 Impala SS 427
