Nothing comes close to the durability of older tools. Those garage sale planes, panel saws, and second-hand old-school hammers are meant to last long and not quit on you when you need them the most.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s good for the environment, some documents are better off in print since marking them up is easy. Nothing beats the satisfaction of highlighting and scribbling ideas on a hard copy.<\/p>\n
