I like the suggestion of a whiteboard, assuming it is in a location that would be convenient to write on. But, it sounds like that isn't the case...

Roger, I don't remember who the hitter was (maybe Willie Wilson), but you're talking about the 1980 World Series? If it was in KC I might have been...

Maybe this is to simple, but just use the plywood top to square up the base. Same goes for the low shelf your plywood will square everything up.

I have to agree with Jim. I just don’t see the wisdom of voice response systems. When a human finally answers, they are already dealing with an...

When I think about the pitch clock, I’m reminded of a game back in the 80’s between the Phillies and royals. Sadly, I’m missing some details. Maybe...

This repair will be in the air not underground. So I think it should last for decades. Probably put a foam sleeve over it for frost protection....

Most of the stock t-slot nuts are case hardened, so they are best modified by grinding them down. I had to do that to some t-nuts for a Powermatic...

The hinges might influence the door construction. Think them out before you make sawdust.

I have made one or two from carriage bolts by grinding off some of the head here and there. Bill D.

Not sure what the size is but I made a couple of jigs that bolted to the slots using elevator bolts that are available at a local hardware store...

I use white oak and sometimes mahogany. White oak is long wearing. For ADA I usually buy aluminum or bronze pre made ADA. For historical ADA I use...

A bump block attached the the fence is a good system. Using the fence only even if close to parallel you will get variation and runbbing.

Jack, I was skeptical about the rule changes, but have been impressed with the way the game moves along now. I've read that attendance and viewing...

I agree, but if you do this rarely, the online booking thing is a minefield in and of itself. What you definitely don't want to do is go into a...

The Rangate cutter is larger but probably cuts about the same as Whitehill. The big difference though is the Rangate one comes with detailed drawings...

If you can do it & still find one at $1199.99 I would grab it! Acme Tools & a couple of E-Bay sites look like still have the old price, but I'll...

Funny story. Traveling from NY back to Wisconsin one time and we made reservations through the 800 reservation system in Mackinaw City, MI. When we...

Q1. Yes they need to be replaced if you've tried to hammer them off. If you had radial movement the bearings probably needed to be adjusted. Q2....

With lawn or house repairs it is often what you can put together to get the job done. By compressor sleeve I assume you mean a dresser coupling of...

I just pulled the trigger on the Viking floor model 9/30/23 & it looks as though I just beat an October price increase by Teknatool! :D Amazon,...

Yeah, the chains send you to a central reservations system that could be anywhere. So they dont have to have a reservation clerk standing by at each...

If you have a saw with a tee type miter slot, you'll note there isn't a lot of height to the "tee" part. You may need to fabricate what you want by...

They sound fine. Just as an aside, the 3 peaks rating is higher than M&S should you feel that will be helpful the next time you need new ones. It's...

I have done this with the Kreg Automaxx hold down clamps in the slot on my sliding table saw. I sourced the T slot nuts *and matching thread pitch...

That's really nice to have. But in my case, it would have added up to $10K to the cost of the shop building to have water or more if sewer connection...

I don't regret getting the longest slider that would fit in my shop. It took 39 iterations of floor layouts in CAD to make it happen, but zero...

Most important thing is, start with square stock. At this point, try clamping diagonally with a pipe clamp.

You will probably need to choose something slightly smaller than your panel stock and rebate the back to fit in your groove the way you want. If you...
