Wrong. Have him cut them 1/2" too big and clean them up at home. Panel saws are great but not the ones in home improvement stores. Those get operated by morons and rammed into by forklifts all the time.
If ppl tipped me $20 for 10 minutes on a panel saw that's where I would plant my azz all day. It's his job. Keep your Andrew Jackson.
If you dont have the right equipment to "clean it up at home" what would you suggest? I don't have a whole lot of equipment at my house, but ive been looking to build a box for my room with a small inexpensive woofer just for the experience.
the wood cutter most likely makes min wage you tip him a $20 thats like 3 hours of wages right there...he'll cut it out right for you
Home Depot, Lowes, ACE Hardware, even your freaking Mom and Pop hardware stores usually have no clue about real quality advice. They don't care. All they want is to sell their goods at 200% of their cost. They get it because the general public is blind and mostly unwilling of doing it for themselves.
Who here pays $60+ for an oil change? That's $20 or less worth of material that you pay for to be done for you. It's not that hard to do yourself, really.
