    I can't find my Hettich binder, I use Blum but I would think the same would apply. Wouldn't you just use a full overlay hinge and a thicker baseplate to alter the overlay? With Blum a 0mm baseplate...

    My setup is all pvc and no complaints. I just don’t like working with metal ducting to begin with so I opted for pvc. Tons of fittings available, easy to glue up or tape together. Can’t go wrong with...

    Thank you. 4 degrees, lie angle is about 70. Drilling for the shaft was the only real challenge. Took my time to set my drill press up just right

    Ha, I just finished it yesterday so it hasn't seen the course yet. I doubt it will replace my normal putter but it was a fun little project

    Homemade Wenge putter, just for fun

    Just thought I'd share some pics of a wood putter I made. I build cabinetry and furniture for a living, this is my first attempt at a putter. It's not perfect but it turned out pretty good and feels...

    Ha, nice. Only one I use for shop related activities is the Dewalt Mobile Pro calculator app. I'm sure there are other options that do the same thing but I've had it for years and it does what I need...

    Nice shop indeed. I have a dado set for mine but have yet to try it out, still using my old Unisaw for dados.

    I tried a local guy and wasn't happy with the results. I've been using Burns Tools lately and am very happy with them. Good price and fairly quick. Easy to take care of online is nice

    Some nice looking shops here, glad I'm not the only one that keeps their shop overly tidy. I'll put some pics up of mine soon too.

    I've had mine for 4-5 years and it has seen a lot of use. No real complaints although the speed control has been acting up lately.

    Another vote for Stihl, I don't use mine a ton but when I need it it always starts. Prices aren't bad for their non professional saws. It will last you a long time. Also you can buy one at a small...

    Drywall screws are bad news I assure you. They are very brittle and not made for cabinetry installation. Many years ago I used them before I knew better.

    Thanks for the input. I ended up finding a used Castle locally for a good price. The guy had just replaced the main router so I felt pretty good about it. I set it up today and ran some test pieces,...
  19. Opinions please- Castle TSM21 or Kreg DK1100 pocket hole machine

    So I've researched at nauseam and can't decide. I'm looking to upgrade from my older metal version of the Kreg Foreman to a larger machine. I'm comfortable with the Kreg style pocket but I like the...
