Just an idea.. Most of us seem to enjoy using our tools and probably have a few tips that'd go hand-in-hand with showing them. So, a tools thread?
This is new today. Bought it to help me put hinges on all the doors I've got to replace. Not a hope of doing it with a chisel. Actually went in to buy the router attachment for my Dremel but this entire kit was only about $20 more.

Re: The Tools Thread
Yeah fair enough. And great thread
For hinges though, I have a shit load of tools available, I'll fall back on the humble chisel. It needs to be sharp! Draw round it, bish bash bosh.
Make plenty of down cuts, every 4 or 5 mm. Then scoop it all out.
I'm big on using powertools, but for hinge cut outs? quicker by hand, way quicker.

So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.
