“I’m pretty handy for a Southern girly girl, though. I can use a table saw, a nail gun, install trim or tile, build bookshelves. I got a chop saw for Christmas a couple of years ago :-”

Ooooooweee! Where have you been all my life? I’m gettin’ the vapors. If you can also hand file a chainsaw and touch up a twist drill bit on a grinder, then you would be on a calendar hanging in my shop. :)

The lovely Mrs. Guy ain’t too shabby in her own right. She’s good at grouting tile and perfectly hanging pictures. (She gets real torqued when I use her cordless drill.)

Only one cordless drill? A) 1 to drill, B) 1 to countersink, C) 1 to screw the screw in.

Women using power tools is like Opening a Doorway to CHAOS!! My wife is now flipping houses thanks to HGTV. Let me tell you that it doesn't happen in 47 minutes plus commercials. She's doing alright, hasn't cut off any vital tissues, but there has been pain. So much pain...

Mrs Jackson is like that. It started off as my cordless drill.
