How to bend wood like this - Outdoor furniture project
Thread Starter: Alan Lightstone
Looking for a new project to do. I've been spending a few months upgrading the workshop / fixing minor annoyances, and really need to actually build something. I ran across this in a magazine ad. The furniture is supposedly solid teak, though I don't think that will be in the cards for...

Cheap Bandsaw for Resawing
Thread Starter: Jimmy Harris
I'm a hobbyist on a limited budget looking for a bandsaw, primarily for resawing. Let's say, 12" of 8/4 hard maple cut down the middle would be the maximum I would ever ask of it. I'm under the impression that I'll need a steel framed bandsaw for that. What else do I need to know? Are guides...

Shaker Window Sash Profile

Hellos All, I need some help with some window sashes. I am tasked to build some window sashes for an interior partition wall between a pantry and kitchen for a client. I mistakenly offered a shaker profile. However it turns out the cutter set I was planing on using only goes to a max thickness...

Thread Starter: Brian Elfert

Transporting air dried claro walnut - in the desert mid-summer

I air dried 12/4 in PA and it was down to 10% within 2.5 years. Possibly 2 years. After the first 6 months of drying lumber, you kinda forget about it

Woodturning lathe for young adult nephews?

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately the nephew's location is some distance from a Woodcraft or Rockler store. The upside is that free shipping

Bugs !

I'd be afraid to try heating the entire table, too. Titebond yellow glues lose most of their strength at 150F. Franklin doesn't say how much is lost

I don't know, but have to agree with you.

Easy to launder money through a car wash. Just add it to the daily take and claim that many extra washes went through. No extra cost to run a fake wash
