    To completely construct something truly MacGyver'ed would be pretty awesome, although you will probably peev off the lady with random bits of stuff stored floor to ceiling!

    Just a memory that this thread brought back to me...
    When I was about 8 years old...building one of my first model airplanes (it was a TWA airliner), I was playing with the glue (the good Testers stuff in the red tube), squeezed into my hands and bringing them together then apart over and over made it stringy. And Believing I invented a new kind of string. Thanks for the memories.

    First of all, thanks again to criswilson10 for taking the time to get caught up on, & responding to this thread. Which brings me to my next point...

    I got a response from a fellow over at Freud Tools (Diablo brand parent company). He started with "Interesting idea..." and gave me some useful information, sprinkled between warnings of "serious injury or death". Lol. I'm not naive to the risks involved with this endeavor . Otherwise, I wouldn't have included that line in my e-mail about waving "...any and all liability..." for their company. IMO, nobody willing to pursue such an undertaking should be able to hold anyone responsible for the outcome, other than themselves!

    Any-who... I think I will include a link to this thread in my response. It would greatly reduce the length of the correspondence, not to mention the amount of stuff I'd have to retype! I think it would improve his understanding of, if nothing else, the amount of thought I tend to put into these... "intellectual exercises" .

    Any objections to me linking over??
