Re: Cutting plywood
Nothing in this world is "free" anymore. Somehow you will pay. However, in this case $99 a year for shipping at no additional cost sounds like a pretty good deal. Maybe we could get Shopsmith to participate.jsburger wrote:But you are paying for prime so does that really make shipping free? Maybe less but not free.ibskot wrote:I always work alone.

Re: Cutting plywood
I have Bora clamps to use with a circular saw.
The only problem is it is much less exciting than trying to cut a sheet of plywood on a SS. Even on a dedicated table saw it can be a bit of an adventure. The guides are much much safer.

Re: Cutting plywood
You are all right, but using the term "free" incorrectly, by buying prime, you getting benefits, like paying for a membership at Sams Club, Costco, ect.jsburger wrote:But you are paying for prime so does that really make shipping free?

That paid " membership" at Amazon, has benefits, which one is no charge shipping, free no, you paid for unlimited no charge shipping, and the other benefits that Prime offers for the $99 membership.

Re: Cutting plywood
One of my 4 beautiful daughters gave me Amazon Prime as a birthday gift. So, for me, the shipping and all other benefits cost me nothing. I feel like it is free!

Re: Cutting plywood
It sure is for you, but not if YOU paid the 99$. It is like being a member of AAA, I pay 80$ for Premium membership, if I need to be towed I dont need to pay for it, but it is not free, I payed for that service in my MEMBERSHIP FEE.randythewoodchuck wrote:One of my 4 beautiful daughters gave me Amazon Prime as a birthday gift.

LL Bean has free shipping, nothing is free, it is built into the cost of the product, to make a profit margin they need. I owned my own business for 20 years, if I gave a free anything it is built into my pricing.
If anyone here wants FREE vote for Uncle Bernie, all will be FREE and America will be like Greece B4 his term is over.

Re: Cutting plywood
Well, a guilt trip, this thread got side tracked, so I will not add to that any more.

Re: Cutting plywood
Until you have to pay for it next year. Are you getting free shipping for ever with out paying?randythewoodchuck wrote:One of my 4 beautiful daughters gave me Amazon Prime as a birthday gift. So, for me, the shipping and all other benefits cost me nothing. I feel like it is free!
Free shipping is fine but I don't need all the other crap they give you with prime.
I guess it depends how much you buy on Amazon. I do not pay $99 a year on shipping for what I order so prime is not worth it.
