Time for some levity
Thread Starter: Dave Anderson NH

I'm looking for a nice workbench to get me back into woodworking. I do not have any power tools at this time other than a few handheld tools. I'm not sure making a nice bench is an option. Mostly I just want a place to plane and build stuff by hand to work on my skills until I can afford a full...

Thread Starter: Brian Elfert
They are going crazy building standalone car washes in my area. I know of at least three currently under construction nearby, and a few others that recently opened. Car washes are going up all over the Minneapolis metro area. There will easily be three times as many standalone car washes once...

Shaker Window Sash Profile

There isn't any maximum thickness with that set as it cuts only the profiled part of the sash bars. The glass rabbet must be cut with another tool with

Shaker Window Sash Profile

I agree with this, and not just for Shaker...the original window frames in the 250 year old portion of our former property were draw-bored, although the

Lacquer over BIN primer?

Solvent based lacquers should generally always be used with the same brand vinyl sealer/primer for best results. Your acquaintance should ascertain what

Tree of Life

That turned out very well, John. I agree with the profile cutting vs pocketing.

Shaker Window Sash Profile
