AST=Applied Surfaces Technology. I goofed up the profile I guess. Should be Quater Turn on the header thing. By the way, how do you know when someone has responded to you on the fourm? I keep going back and forth thru "new post" and theres got to be a better way.

Hope you don't mind me changing it to capital letters (if you have to log in, remember it's case sensitive). I don't understand why so many members don't use caps when they should - AND SOMETIMES USE CAPS WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T.

Really? It's supposed to be "Quater" and not "Quarter?" You can change your own User Title whenever you want.

In your UserCP > Edit Options there is a section for Messaging & Notifications where you can set your preferences for "Default Topic Subscription Mode." That can also be changed in the standard message editor (not the Quick Reply editor) too. And you can choose to have an email sent to you when someone replies to a topic you have participated in. If you haven't participated, but still want to be notified when someone posts to a favorite topic (or even a favorite forum), you will find subscription options near the top of the topic (or forum) under Tools. To unsubscribe, you go back to that menu and select unsubscribe.

All of these features should be explained in detail in the link in the navigation bar near the top of all our pages for Rules & FAQ. If you ever need help with any forum or website feature, you can start a new topic in our Website & Forums Support forum.

OUCH!!! see you did it Robert

OK Back to topic, I like the old Stanley 199s, It took a while to get used to my Delphins, but after about 10 years of them I'm not sure I could go back to the Stanleys. There was also a knife I used for a while it was Gold in color and had an angle to it, it held utility blades.

With a screw-on cover for the hollow handle? I think that's a Dexter knife. Very popular here with the hard surface guys.

I have been using the Vinyl Edger on nearly every vinyl job recently and it has really sped me up. I can trim way faster with this thing. I'm glad I finally found an edge trimmer for vinyl that I can trust. It cuts nice and neat, right to the wall...that's my favorite part of the tool.

Other than that I would have to go with the straight orcon knife for everything else. It's what I learned on and what feels comfortable in my hand.

Push button is the only way for me. Only utility knife I use. I hate screws and retractable blades.......... those are for home owners and DIYers that change blades once every 4 years and are afraid of a little blood.
