    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 solid body electric guitar

    Thread Starter: roger wiegand

    I hope to make periodic posts through this build, the Day designations will, I expect refer to days of posts rather than day of build, perhaps like some people interpret biblical "days" of creation.

    Track Saw vs Circular Saw vs Table saw Vs Miter saw - Which one to start with?

    Thread Starter: Amelia Green

    Hi, I realise that all tools are not equal. I remember someone saying that even a table saw does not equal a table saw does not equal a table saw :eek: But if someone is just getting into the woodworking hobby with a limited space available for the workshop, which one would you guys recommend...

    Lighting the Small Workshop
    By Jack Lindsey

    Router use, tables, accessories?

    I came across a good deal on a Bosch 1617 dual base router package, so I bought it and a set of 1/4" bits. I've never used a router until now, but

    Can a Handrail be Molding?
