    I agree with Tom. I had a neighbor that assumed all tools were junk and could not be used unless they were Dewalt yellow. Hard to talk to folks like that.

    Maybe it is time to build that trebuchet.
    If you can read this you assembled wrong.

      Just tell him that size isn't everything.

          Richard,

          PM me with this turkey's address and I'll do what the Gov't trained me to. I'll make him disappear.

            Was this guy just kidding around? Or, was he serious? Because if a new neighbor was bold enough to make disparaging remarks about your tools, well, just wait until he knows you better!

                There's been enough posts on how to handle it. You should simply invite him to our little corner of the world.

                  Thanks guys. I have enjoyed following this thread. I hope you have had as much fun with this as I have and not taken offense by the neighbours comments. Yes, he was serious about his saw being superior to just about all other saws of this catagory( not just the BT3). I give him credit for standing behind what he beleives in. He seems to be nice enough, he just thinks he knows more. He just needs the opportunity to try my baby.

                  I'll keep you updated with my neighbour relations.

                      Need to figure out a feeding mechanism, but I am thinking, Kickback at 20 paces.
