Yeah... it does come in handy. My parents ran a portable sawmill business for a few years. Dad was a handyman (farmer = electrician, mechanic, welder, carpenter, general laborer), so I've got access to a lot of hand & power tools, too.

That's the reason I'm using her barn for my workshop... it may be three hours away, but it's got everything I need.
