    Time for some levity

    Thread Starter: Dave Anderson NH

    With all of the negativity and political stuff going on with the Covid-19 virus it is time to look at the humorous side of things. Feel free to add more, but keep it clean or it will be deleted.

    Dust Collector recommendations

    Thread Starter: Michael Rutman

    Oh boy, reading the archives I can see this is not a simple question, which makes me feel good because I am completely lost. I have never owned a dust collector mostly due to inability to figure out what I need, and that needs to change. So, let me go over my shop, my needs, and then beg for...

    glue 1 surface or 2

    Thread Starter: Richard Hutchings

    After reading Stephens post where he mentioned gluing both faces of the laminated legs, it got me thinking. I generally avoid that and feel gluing one surface is plenty. I think if I was gluing up a mallet, I might go that extra mile but I'm more of a glue one surface guy. Prove me wrong and I'll...

    Cost effectiveness of a slider vs. tracksaw & tablesaw

    Thread Starter: Jonathan Jung

    Solid Walnut bookshelf dados - is glue enough?

    Thread Starter: Bill Brammer

    Building 6 ft high, 28 in wide, 12 inch deep solid 3/4 inch walnut bookshelf , no adjustable shelves. I have dados for all shelves. The sides are a little bowed, requiring some pressure with clamps to pull them together with the dados. Not a ton, but some. I'm trying to decide if I need to add...

    Why does my Leeson Three phase motor have wiring instructions for reverse?

    My woodmaster drum sander just uses a dc motor for the feed and a simple reversing switch. No three phase on it.

    Why does my Leeson Three phase motor have wiring instructions for reverse?

    I've seen machines that run in forward and reverse. If I'm not mistaken, Woodmaster has a drum sander that will run forward and then you can push a button

    Miter Saw Vertical Cuts not Square

    Checking the alignment as in the photo only shows where the blade ends up after the cut has been made. Unfortunately, it would seem that the blade isn't

    I think my zero turn mower is cursed!

    If there is still dirt in the starter that would indicate it wasn't properly cleaned out when it was rebuilt. I am assuming the voltage drop is the starter

    I think my zero turn mower is cursed!

    There are a lot of things that could cause a situation like this.
