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.

new bandsaw wont' cut straight
Thread Starter: Forrest Gon
My first bandsaw, a new rikon 10-3061, set it up according to the manual and various youtube tutorials such as Alex Snodgrass's method (align the blade, tension the blade, thrust bearings and side guides) Now the issue is: the saw just won't cut straight, it will pull the wood off the fence...

Cost effectiveness of a slider vs. tracksaw & tablesaw
Thread Starter: Jonathan Jung
I thought about posting this to the business section, because I'd really like input from professionals who use their shop as a business.

Some Help Finding a Bottom Bowl Gouge
Thread Starter: John Kananis
I'm looking for a U-shaped gouge for working the inside of a bowl, 3/4 or 5/8. No one seems to have the Thompson. All I'm finding is the Ashley Harwood line and that's 250 bucks for steel and handle...a bit much but if I HAVE to. Not saying I'm not willing to pay for quality tools, just seems a bit...

Thickness planer board return ideas
Thread Starter: Jeff Roltgen
Just put a new SCM nova s520 into service. Would like to return workpieces from outfeed to infeed side via top, and this new machine has a huge 31x46" hood, 2mm thick steel, well reinforced, 4mm thick hinges and attachment welded inside, which leads me to believe it's expected to be used this way....

Microsoft putting unwanted software on my computer

Airless Sprayer question for the experts

It doesn't have a built in gauge; I'll need to add one at some point. For house painting, eyeballing it in seems to work well enough.

Was this a good price?

I like jatoba for musical instrument parts. 13" is too short for a banjo or guitar fretboard but a mandolin fretboard or fiddle fingerboard are

Only one mortise chisel?

Mortise chisels are somewhat thicker than they would need to be to resist the forces. The reason they are thick is that they are self jigging: the chisel
