Thanks, Michael. It's a satisfying completion of the project. ----- I added something to this bench recently that I forgot to mention. Having...

Use an outdoor oil product designed for the purpose, such as Sikkens.

That's really unique, interesting and very functional for the task! Bravo!!

Frank, thanks for the reminder...I've been remiss in posting those photos due to distractions, including four days with a five year old blond tornado...

Brian, we will have to have a conversation over a beverage about that sometime. :)

Most charcuterie boards don't have "vertical" handles like serving trays do and that's for the reason that Michael just mentioned. For my friend who...

Using a laptop on a public WiFi connection is the one time that even I would use a VPN to insure whatever I was typing is encrypted from the device...

The one with the most building action around here is called "Pete's Car Wash". I suspect that this kind of business lends itself to owners adding...

The projects I have lined up and potentially lined up for this year will give me some indication if making the investment in improving my DP...

You can't leave off the "SCM" from the search...it's conceivable that many companies might have "things they make" that use the same or similar...

Not sure why that would happen if you put "SCM T130" in the search. Nice plane, for sure, however. :D

It's an early 2000s SCM T130 shaper. Google is your friend...

Since the metal is only providing structure to hold the UHMW tape, I'd probably pick the aluminum because it's just plain easier to craft into the...

Solvent based lacquers should generally always be used with the same brand vinyl sealer/primer for best results. Your acquaintance should ascertain...

That turned out very well, John. I agree with the profile cutting vs pocketing.

John, unless one of the updated or added features "floats your boat", it's not going to be making you do cartwheels. (I don't suggest them even if...
