I was able to have my cake and eat it too. My TS fence has T slots on the sides. I took a piece of 6/4 Poplar (I think) and planed it to exactly 1"....

Nah, the backspace still works. You just have to go into advanced settings (about:config). Ignore the you might break it warning and search for...

I'm aware of that but I thought about how much I upload and it ain't much. Comcast is deploying something called mid-split or something like that...

I'm pretty sure multifunction machines (printer, scanner, copier, fax) do indeed belong in an office.

I sometimes have a problem with Firefox and some web sites. I've messed with Firefox and the O.S. (Ubuntu) so it might well be due to my tinkering....

I just bought a new pair of sneakers from Tractor Supply. I have high arches so finding comfortable shoes can be an issue. I added some Dr. Scholls...

I concur with checking with local mills. It can take a little looking to find them. Being in the Northeast is a benefit, hardwood is plentiful but it...

What I have heard/read is that beech benches are made from European Beech. Supposedly European Beech is more stable than N. American Beech....

Ah, Zip drives. They were used (still are if they still work I'll bet) to update aircraft Universal FMSs (Flight management System). It's only been a...

I for one thought that problem was addressed in 2010.

I recall Forrest Addy talking about Far Eastern motors on another forums years ago. His contention was that quality domestic motors go thru one (or...

Maybe very few factoring in the geopolitics.

I think that's true of most locked phone providers, you just have to use and pay for their services for a period of time and they'll provide a means...

Maurice, if you haven't done so, get a removable memory device e.g. flash drive, portable hard drive, whatever and copy those files that you will...

I often use the site "startpage.com". It somehow uses Google's search engine but filters out some of the ad-blasting and intrusiveness. I don't know...

I would think the saw is actually made by Geetech or somebody like that. It would be helpful if Woodworker's Supply had the OEM info.

With so many colors, it's understandable that no one stocks it, except maybe in white. Besides, how many people except tradesmen who generally have...

If you just want to look, give 'em one (email/phone) It doesn't have to be real.

That system is going away at least in my part of the world and some people don't like that fact. In fact the copper network it relies on is suffering...

Don't disregard the MVNOs, (mobile virtual network operators) of which I think Consumer's Cellular is one. I had Airvoice Wireless for years but...

I think phone companies have to unlock their phones after a certain period of time using the phone on their service. For example, if I had a phone...

+1 for Ooma. It has a bunch of tricks I never took the time to figure out. Wife doesn't want to know about cell phones as primary phone though she...

You know they're trying to hire 87,000 new agents. A business I'm familiar with already set aside office space for IRS use, they get 'visits' that...

Even better - airvoice wireless - $10 for 90 days. They did recently start charging $1/month use the phone or not. They use AT&T infrastructure. but...

I usually have a devil of a time driving slotted screws, either by hand or using a drill driver. I found that using a bit with sliding sleeve helped...

I can relate to that. My wife is handicapped and has a 2002 Ford Explorer XLT. It has pretty wide running board and she can get in and out pretty...

Somebody ought to tell general aviation aircraft mechanics that. I don't know if they don't want to deal with painting new or what.

I have one that I use for breaking down sheet goods. I made a guide from 1/4" 'masonite' with the fence made from aluminum matrix metal. The PC 314...

Not for nothing is dd called disk destroyer, huh?:p
