Size does matter
In order to place a four inch ABS pipe through a rubber grommet in a septic tank I needed to cut a 5 1/4 inch hole. Most persons use PVC pipe which is slightly smaller in which case a five inch hole is large enough. Five inches is one of the standard sizes of hole saws so I was happy to find this one, which is 5 1/4" that is not a standard size that fit my needs. This saw is extremely sturdy and does the job well. Use a larger drill than required if you have one handy, maintain a firm grip and advance the saw slowly because it will exert a large force when it first contacts the material, otherwise you might end up with a broken wrist. That is the nature of any large tool. It enabled me to complete the job and in that respect was well worth the money.

Sturdy snow scoop
Perfect scoop for clearing snow off the roof of my car. Out here the snow tends to build up and is sticky so that it does not blow off and it takes effort to remove it. It is much better than the lightweight scrapers and brushes meant for dusting off snow.

Purchasing a SamSung SyncMaster 226BW LCD Monitor
1 of 1 found this helpful When the nerves in my left eyelid began to jerk in an uncontrollable spasm from staring at the CRT display I decided that it was time to switch to a LCD monitor, so that my eyes would not be continually assailed by the beam from an electron gun. The memory of lugging the heavy CRT up two flights of stairs was also fresh in my mind and played a significant role in my decision. My old CRT monitor was also efficient at heating my room. But I wanted efficient display, not efficient heat. It was time to buy a lightweight LCD monitor.
The Samsung LCD monitor had a feature that I have always wanted in monitors. A narrow bezel. I once asked a retailer why there needs to be such a wide frame around CRT displays and he replied that if they had a narrow frame no one would buy them. Competition forced a wide bezel in the same way that competition forced redundant repetition of the table of contents, etc. in all computer manuals to make the volume of printed material appear huge and important. I always believed that this repetition was because computer programmers were illiterate or at the very least English class dropouts. My Samsung Syncmaster has a narrow bezel.
The screen size of my 19” CRT monitor was adequate for my purposes, but then I realized that I could accomodate a much wider LCD monitor that did not take up any more space than my old CRT. Initially, I was just going to replace it with a 19” LCD, but when I reviewed the specifications I realized that along with increased size came better features. Among these were a 2 millisecond response time and a contrast ratio of 3000 to one. Smaller LCDs typically had a contrast ratio of around 400:1 and a response time of about eight milliseconds. These features tipped the purchase decision in my favor and I bought the 22" SyncMaster.
Initially, I had to get used to the new technology. In a CRT, light spreads, making text appear smoother than the data that is actually being transmitted to the screen. To my surprise, text in a LCD reminded me of the near text quality of old dot matrix printers. My initial impression was that for 10 pt. type a CRT set to, say, 1024x768 resolution was smoother than a LCD set to 1680x1050. That initial impression is because you can see more detail in a higher resolution LCD monitor without any light spread making individual pixels stand out. The real advantage is in graphics with fine detail that is visible in the higher resolution LCD monitor.
Now that I am using the Syncmaster I would never go back to a CRT monitor, but neither would anyone else. It has all the features that I like: Display is easy on the eyes. Color is an altogether different experience. I have never seen such solid blacks in a display before. Screen images sweep off rapidly and can handle anything that the display adapter tosses to it. It uses a maximum of 56 watts compared to about 300-400 watts of my old CRT. And the bezel surrounding the screen is only about a half inch wide so that the width of the monitor does not waste space. And, when moving I will not have to lug fifty or more pounds up and down stairs. The SyncMaster weights about ten pounds. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the product.
