You know, I was fairly confident that I would get some answers here. I love this place.
I took the protractor out of its plastic wrap yesterday and wiped some of the oil off. It appears to function and seems to be made decently. The adjustments all work. Sometime during the week I will clean and debur it, though I don't think it's that bad. I do think that deburring it will make it function more smoothly and make it feel better. Then I will check it using angle blocks.
It will be a couple of days before I do that though. It's cold and very damp here (it's snowing up in New Hampshire). Besides, it's Mothers Day. I'm going to spend a good part of the day cooking. This morning our big breakfast will be eggs, grits, and ham hash. Then for Sunday dinner I'll make shrimp and garbonzos (chick peas) with arugula, per my wife's request.
By the way, if any of you guys forgot to get a gift I have a suggestion if you have a Lowes nearby. When I was there the other day I got some hanging flower baskets for the wife. Normally $11 - $12 each, they were on sale 2 for $10. So it makes $20 look like $50. She's happy and I'm happy.
