Try to find someone who will let you use some of his really sharp tools in his shop for a while. I would have saved myself many hours of frustration and aggravation if I had been able to find a...

A couple of us up here in the cold, snowy Punxsy area are going on Saturday, Saul. It's a long ride and even if the show's not huge, it'll still be a chance to talk tools and see a lot of the stuff...

The advice was just what I needed. I think I am really going to enjoy retirement. At one time, I had hopes that I would find a woodworker near me to help me out. However, I've been looking and...

In about two weeks, I'm planning to retire. I've taught 7th grade language arts for 30+ years and thought it might be nice to try something else for a change. My all-time favorite line (borrowed from...

Wow. That just made this place even more useful than before. Thank you very much.

The ideas and tips I get from you guys are great. This one will sure help me, because I don't have a lot of space to roam. Cutting sheet goods by myself has always been a chore, and it's getting...

Thanks for the Amazon tip. I just ordered a copy.

If you are like me and don't have a woodstove or fireplace, then try this. Get yourself a fire ring or pile up some bricks away from the house somewhere. Go to the local hardware and pick up a couple...

Hmm, how come I haven't heard about this place? I live about 20 miles from Clearfield. I think I'll "diet" for a couple of days and then go have a look.

If you ever decide that you aren't satisfied with those benches and decide to make new ones, just remember that I am first in line for the old ones! That looks like a really cozy, landscaped area....

This whole thing is strange. They have an ebay store where they are selling the cds for 54.95 each.

But on their web page they claim...

Winning is always fun. The trouble is that I am not a turner, at least that's one addiction I haven't let myself start yet. So I've told Aaron to run the drawing again. That means all of you "losers"...

Steve did nearly everything except visit my shop to help me decide on how I wanted my plane built. Ask him as many questions as you want. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and dedicated to your getting...

According to WoodFinder , there is a place in Grove City. Timber Trails, 724-738-0654. I haven't been there yet, so I don't know anything about it.

If you want to drive a little farther, try West...

I live in central western PA.

I went there over Christmas. I spent nearly 3 hours just looking and drooling. They have some of the most beautiful figured woods I have ever seen. I got a good deal on 100 bd ft of curly maple, some...

But I thought the reason they came off so easily was so that you could replace the mirrors if they broke. That's what made me think there was a trick to be learned. On the other hand, maybe the glue...

I am refinishing a bedroom suit. When I removed the mirrors from their frames, I noticed that they had been held in place by small, triangular blocks of wood that were attached to the frames. They...

I like the cubby holes and the size. Never seems to be enough space for all of the odds and ends.

Good grief. Where do YOU have room to fit?

I too have used a 6" one for about 30 years. Lots of other toys I'd rather have than a bigger jointer.

Even when I don't win tonight, I'll still feel that I have won quite a bit. Having a place to come where I can benefit from your research and work on dust collecting is simply invaluable. Thanks for...

After watching Jim Kingshott in his Bench Planes video do that, I finally have had some success with my smoothers. He just leans a little harder on each each side of the blade for a dozen or so...
