Rich, that's bound to be a classic. It sounds a lot like a "sharpening" thread over on the SMC Neanderthal Forum. (DAMHIKT) Fred

I have a Kreg bandsaw fence and really like it. LINK They average about $110.

First and foremost, welcome Bennie! Glad you've joined us and happy to see your project posted! We love pics! Also, you should know that if grandpa...

+1. My Dad painted his house 25 years ago. The SW guys told him to pressure wash it, then put on 1 coat of oil-based primer and 2 coats of SW's best...

Sometimes, the difference between 2 brands is not evident until you see how it wears. I use only Sherwiin Williams. Excellent coverage going on. Very...
