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. For those of you who make $ or even a living making furniture or cabinets, how long does it take for a sliding table saw to pay for itself compared to a track saw...

Thickness planer board return ideas
Thread Starter: Jeff Roltgen

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....

Only one mortise chisel?

Stihl Easy to Start - Isn't

Stihl is a good brand. On weekends, I work for the USFS and all the forestry guys use nothing but Stihl, and using the Monomix, it extends your warranty

Outdoor Oil

In this spirit, I've tried thinning Epifanes down to a wiping varnish consistency, as I do whimsical things like this occasionally. Only did a couple

Thickness planer board return ideas

Eric: I love that idea, but I'll share a little secret I discovered: Dog grooming table with electric lift. Found a used one for about $350. Sounds weak,
