Cordless will not be lighter. Lithium or not, that battery has weight.

Also, you should consider how frequently you're going to be using the tool. Batteries aren't eternal, so if this is a once-a-year thing, corded is probably more practical so you don't have batteries dying on the shelf.

While cordless is very cool and handy, personally I'd save the money, run the extension cord, and buy a whole other thing with that $160.

And the moral is, if you’re going through a Chinese middleman, just go with a Chinese manufacturer already.

Fair enough, but man, not to rub it in, but you don’t leave that shit lying around attached to waste paper.

Wait, you’re telling me you knowingly bypassed a card you knew to have money in it to open the gift?

It’s a matter of using the most suitable material for the job.

Wood glue is meant for tight, flush joints and excels in this role as it’s thin enough to spread evenly, fill tiny cracks and dries either clear or very slightly yellow. Basically, it’s tidy.

Construction adhesive is meant for much rougher connections where surfaces that aren’t as smooth or flush and you’re probably only applying spots of adhesive rather than covering the whole surface. As such, the stuff is much thicker, more gloppy and you basically only want to apply it where it’s never going to be seen or touched because it’s messy, impossible to fine tune and looks like crap.

You want wood glue, not construction adhesive, and some clamps.

That said, I think we’re potentially missing some vital information here. What exactly is happening with the nails and screws that they don’t say in? That’s a red flag.

I assumed it had special importance. Look at it this way though: by not easing off, you’ve seriously compromised your ability to play until that hand heals up.

I think the real FU is not reassessing the relative importance of tennis practice in your life.

Too much “Criminal Minds.”
