🌲 What’s the Most Frustrating Wood You’ve Ever Worked With? (Win $100 Gift Card!)
Some woods test your patience more than your tools. Tear-out, splinters, dull blades — the works. Which wood gave you the biggest headache, and why? If you survived, tell us how you lived to tell the tale. 🏆 Prize: $100 Sawinery Gift Card (because you earned it after that battle) 📅 Winner announced on December 15! 📍 Open to U.S. customers only (for now). We’re working on making them available in more locations soon!

Never even seen zebrawood in person, let alone try to work with it. Beautiful stuff though
⚙️ What’s the Fastest Tool You’ve Ever Worn Out? (Win $100 Gift Card!)
Some tools just can’t handle the workload. Maybe it was that bargain sander that lasted one weekend, or a drill that gave up mid-project. Tell us which tool tapped out the fastest — and what you replaced it with (or swore off forever) 🏆 Prize: $100 Sawinery Gift Card (so you can upgrade to one that lasts!) 📅 Winner announced on November 24! 📍 Open to U.S. customers only (for now). We’re working on making them available in more locations soon!

Retractable tape measures. Never last. Tips breal off, bends near end and cracks, or spring gives out. Brands don't matter, they all have the same issues

@Rich Murphy Im a contractor so I use tapes all day every day. In the shop I use metal measuring devices too. LOL I know what ya mean about varying measurements too. One guy uses his tape to measure, and you use another to measure the cut, and they are different. Such is life 😁
