Well, George, the crack has always been there and a weather strip along the bottom has pretty much sealed the door until just recently. Now it is too...

The end result is that I look everywhere else first and Rockler is my last resort. Doing an online order from Lowes right now for the wife to pick...

Finally pulled the trigger on the Flex Volt track saw. LOVE IT. I bought the kit which came with battery, charger, and a 59" track and then also...

I'd hold off on installing the door and first get the floor fixed right first. I also can't understand what has happened and why. Perhaps you...

The stock I'm cutting the plugs from is the same as the island top - 2"X6-1/2"X7', so I have plenty to work with. Looks like a neat trick, but I'm...

They changed their system quite awhile ago, maybe 6-7 years, so the individual stores don't report back sales to corporate in real-time. But the...

I think I have decided to keep it. I saw other owners have had issues with the built in locking system in that the handle actually moved when in...

My mill is a manual LT15 Woodmizer, so I know what you mean! Next for me are some big white oak logs - I need some thick planks for outdoor steps. ...

Help me out. How does a garage door opener install or damage to the door cause you to need to do something with the concrete? Pictures would be...

No, it's solid osage orange. But building a box into one is a great idea! JKJ

I don't remember many 'mailbox rules' from 50 years ago, and for that matter, even now, HOA rules notwithstanding. I can probably drive around for...

Just one more....

Very nice and simple John! In the added photo is the second one from the left a box? Mike

I built my mill, been using it about four years and have made a few improvements. It has a 23 hp Briggs & Stratton, 205R14 tires for band wheels and...

Thanks. It's hard to transmit sarcasm via text. If there are ways to screw up getting a slab poured and a shed delivered I think I have found...

I just completed my first miter station after many years of thinking about what I wanted. I should have done it long ago. But all that thinking did...

I apply an inside chamfer, so that when the client reaches inside the drawer they do not rub their hand along a crisp inside edge but rather an edge...

Thanks for the kind words Jeff. Yes, the heads for my story sticks have been in a few threads though trying to find a build thread on the story stick...

I guess I just needed to complain here - windows arrive Monday

Ken, thanks for your input. A split top would be nice, especially for being able to clamp items without using a holdfast. If what I build looks...

This is an important point that I am slowly learning. Picking the right or wrong piece of wood makes a huge difference in the amount of work...

I've had great results using the modern thermal printed and laminated tapes outdoors. I use a Brother P-Touch and one of the Dymos for all my...

Great post, and nice work! Keep the progress photos coming.

Alex...your work is truly incredible!

And....it's started. :) Really worthy event and the work on display is incredible and inspiring

I have never, not once, looked at a product on Rockler's web site that showed correct inventory. Every single one says "call store to verify...

Super nice work Justin. Absolutely awesome.

How thick is the stock you're making the plugs from? In addition to what Wayne mentioned regarding clocking screws, the more important reason for...
