Grumpy that was the best description I've seen on saw shapening. I have tried this a couple times and like most things there is a knack to it. The tools he discussed making would help do a better job for sure.

YW realist. In the course of my profession and outside pursuits I've become a real information monger. I'm constantly adding new bookmarks to my stash.

I'm certainly in a different profession, but I to am adding to my bookmarks at every chance.

One thing I'll add from past screw ups on my part. Save your bookmarks in a second location. I got a virus last year and had to reformat the hard drive. Lost all my book marks on that puter. Plus I have book marks on 4 puters between here and work. A seperate drive makes it easier to consolodate everything in one place.

additionally... you should copyƩpaste the information or save videos to secondary locations too. sites go down all the time... then you`ve lost your resourse. I have a handful of flash drives with info, and a bunch of burnt dvds.

I also utilize my works` printers whenever possible and make paper copies of EVERYTHING that I deem as too important not to have in SHTF.
