Jamestown Distributors has been my source. The slowest version I have tried is the "Tropical" hardener. It is very slow.

A boat like the Swallow deserves a mention as do the wonderful easy reader books by Arthur Ransome.

My dads former farm hand is a Veteran of the Korean Conflict. He would have most likely died homeless if my dad had not found kind and clever ways to get him to the VA hospital. He is alive and...

+1 for epoxy. I am most familiar with West System and Smiths. I almost always thicken the glue to paste consistency so glue is not running and dripping. I keep a log with notes on how many grams to...

I think they need you in person Tom. That looks like some of your projects.

I love to see neat old historical buildings being saved. I hope I get to visit New Hampshire this summer. There is a...

Neat-O! I once looked into renting an inflatable hockey rink or swimming pool type temporary cover for a project like that. It was way beyond the budget. The cover your Sons crew came up with is...

I have not seen any PMs. I am interested in pictures.

We just got an external drive for the MacBook Air. The only problem I have had is remembering to eject the disc before exiting Music or Photos. I have been working on ripping the CD collection. I am...

At 85 my Father In Law went through a phase of gorilla gluing chairs and other genuine colonial antiques. The chairs are stuck together for sure. It is going to take some time to get them cleaned up....

This is sad to see. Sorry about your health struggles.
Where are your tools located?

He also did a very thorough job creating plans and programs. Having done it all digitally makes his invention almost ready for mass production. It is a very nifty sander & a great lesson in...

Darling has managed to hang on to her Swiss Army knife. It resides religiously in her bicycle pannier. It is the next size down from the Huntsman. The blade is used almost as much as the corkscrew....

A clever thing that banjo builders do is to use iron brake drums for forms. I have a wheel from a line shaft pillow block that I have bent around. It is too small for those chairs but it is an...

What a smart and capable engineer & craftsman. I watched it 2X speed and still spent too much time on the web yesterday. It was worth it to see the capability of modern techniques. I assume if a...

I used the Sears radial arm saw to make mine. The saw has held up better than the louvers. The saw got to live indoors. A flaw I often find with attic ventilation is mesh or perforations that are too...

For many years we had a tradition of cutting down the family Christmas tree with the saw that some Swiss Army knives have. My favorite Victorinox had one large blade, one small blade, scissors and...

I get to replace power attic ventilators on a regular basis. The life span has gotten shorter and shorter over the years. I think the last "Made In The USA one I installed was about 30 years ago. it...

I always liked the instruction the Gardner at our favorite garden center gave for Clematis,
"Feet in the shade, Head in the sun". They die back in the winter at our place. I have one that goes...

I was happy to see "Tight Chairs" back on the shelf at our Ace Hardware. I remember it working well. It is time to try it again.

Green wood bends the best. For my "tree to finished product" projects I have done the bending with wood that is not even air dried.

I used 3 inch wide quarter sawn basswood 5/16 thick for slatts and spaced them 1 1/2 inches apart. I wish they were aluminum. I sure dread painting them. These are over 30 years old. Darling wanted...

Thats very clever and striking! A very good job. Having that in the room will be an excellent reminder to stop and put on an album.

Our assessors office in Columbia Missouri really hustles to keep assessments current and revenue growing. An assessor often shows up within a week of pulling a permit. At my wife's family property in...

How about making something like a wooden napkin ring with carved knurles, split that in two and epoxy glue the two halves on?
