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 locations by putting profits from existing locations...

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 performance would be worth it or not. So I remain happy to...

Oh, I didn't mean to imply anything disparaging about putting a $400 high quality chuck on a DP that originally cost similar money two decades ago. It's just an ironic thing. The same DP today is...

I find this idea very interesting, especially the one piece version for simplicity and presumably reduced risk of runout. I just have to somehow get past the idea of the chuck costing as much as I...

This is totally a subjective thing, Tom, both for personal preferences around organization as well as functionally how we use our tools. So you are not "missing anything". It's just a choice.

I've...

Maple can take dye nicely if you want to provide some "embedded" color in addition to the toning that various shellacs will impart. You should obviously test with scrap of the same material...

Be sure you post about that command change in the Vectric forum so it can be addressed by Vectric staff.

Tom, have you tried Parts Pronto which is part of the SCM website? You have to register, but that's the parts and manuals part of the company.

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 identifiers, especially when numbers are involved. SCM...

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 pieces required. If the metal was going to be the...

Prushun, I agree with John...play with this because sometimes a tiny adjustment to tone/hue totally elevates things for some strange reason.

I believe those charges were levied quite some time ago, now. And it was a horrible crime against nature. What you propose has a nice "ring" to it... :D

I agree with this, and not just for Shaker...the original window frames in the 250 year old portion of our former property were draw-bored, although the sashes I suspect were much newer and not...

Solvent based lacquers should generally always be used with the same brand vinyl sealer/primer for best results. Your acquaintance should ascertain what the correct product is to use with the "Luster...

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 you feel inclined... ;) ) Some of the UI changes...

Multiple recent threads about this. Nothing has changed. Be sure your URL does not include the “www” at the front.

I would use epoxy resin both for the long working time and the bond. West Systems, Total Boat, etc.

None of the car washes I use accept cash except one and the cash slot on the menu system is often broken. No humans are involved with collecting payments.

For me, it’s not about being bothered; rather, it’s about not spending time on things I don’t enjoy, especially when for eight bucks I can ride through the tunnel in five minutes while I’m doing...

I believe i t does as it’s “zero maintenance”, but quite large at about five feet tall with a digital display. The acid neutralizer we had at the old property back flushed, too.

Rod, I went induction for cooking after we moved into this house three years ago. I had a higher end Thermador gas range at the prior property and as great as that was, would not go back to gas after...

If something made commercially has value to you, buy it. If it doesn’t have value to you, don’t buy it and use whatever method works well for you. These are personal choices. And I thank Malcolm for...
