I built cabnets under my saw and tables. For the tables i used melemine over ply wood.with t tracks to adjust the back stops. The back stops are...

We used to have the same bins in our Bistro with no real impact. The backdoor bin was too small or always full and dirty gathering all sorts of pests...

Hey Jon. Are you planning to use that in your business or restaurant? Maybe you need something larger in size for that.

The issue I have is that this will be an edge grain “chopping block” type top and what looks best with this wood is wide face grain, but it is still...

On close examination, I see the difference in the blades: Coping: 0.094" wide, 0.020" thick Fret: 0.048" wide, 0.015" thick I suppose the KC...

Just received the Makita cordless jigsaw. Its what you would expect if you know the makita cordless tools, pretty well designed and mechanically...

Not too long ago, I posted a pic of my setup, which allows use of most of the area for other things. I am a computer idiot, but it is in my previous...

Parts of the state get lots of snow. Other parts less. Was that first photo on Hwy 88 just before Kirkwood? I was through there once when the...

I have been using a small 3d printer for several months now for prototyping and making useful parts. The most recent parts I made were some...

Bob, I have cut many dovetails like this in the past. The time-saving in minimal: one has to gang the boards perfectly, and my concern is a loss of...

Lots of folks think California does not get snow. So I offer this photo as proof we do get deep snow. Bill D.

I guess I have enough of a plan for Michael or anyone else with a background in higher mathematics to take a shot at it. From a timberframe...

good point, that works too :)

Turns out, this may be the last Project using Aromatic Red Cedar......skin reactions on the backs of my hands....seems to be clearing up, since I...

I have about 10' clear to either side of the RAS blade. So easy to arrange.

And....we have shavings... First try to set the depth....something wasn't quite right.....turned out I didn't have the chipbreaker lock into...

OK, now I've had a chance to nestle in with a single malt and this tome of yours. The story stick and the 1/4" thin sides raise a question that...

What you are doing is wonderful. You are going to take a beautiful wood and make what will be an absolutely stunning product that will be used to...

Thanks for your input everyone, I found a parts supplier, toolpartspro.com, that appears to have the original table for about $380 shipped. I may...

Very good write up of the action. jtk

Derek, that's one for my Dovetail folder. I've copied both posts in full and pasted them into a Pages file for later study. Twenty-seven pages....

I always like watching this one.

What needs to be done to the remaining 16 totes, and how big of a hurry are you in? I have lung reaction to hickory and white oak coming off the...

My second try to insert pictures:

Those are some nice looking knobs and totes. I too am allergic to most anything from South America or the Amazon jungle. It’s not so bad. I find our...

Aging is precisely what makes a slider essential to me. Muscling sheets over a cabinet saw is a young man's game. Multiple stops and the rip fence...

I lived in Southwest Georgia back in the 80's and early 90's. Went to an estate sale after working the graveyard shift, not really expecting to find...
