Me too although I do get some dust on the saw's base and floor. I think the factory collector and something immediately below the table would do...

I've done that with melamine, it worked better than I expected. Make the scoring cut then raise the blade for the through cut. I expected a 'step'...

There are pictures here and elsewhere to back up your journeyman. Those are the ones that didn't burn the house down.

I did the shellac as a first coat trick on some softwood panels. Spray Sealcoat, sand (quick and easy) then water based enamel. Really smooth, it...

The last "crazy" Real Estate market I remember is 2008. I also remember what happened after. I'm hoping for no repeat.

I learned it at my father's knee, not everything we need to know is taught in class. There's also This Old House and its ilk. Someone who has grown...

That was my thought if the service in the house is adequate to support a subpanel.

I recommend to anyone space limited to consider a Jointer/Planer combo. I have a 12" Jet JJP-12 that fits in a space 2' X 5'. That gets me a 12"...

There is at least talk in Pennsylvania of a 5 year life limit on tires. The supposed concern is sidewall dry rot. This was from an independent shop...

I don't think anyone has suggested this - and it's free. Remove the belt from the motor and turn the motor on. If there's still vibration it's either...

Toolcenter.com lists Trimaster blades 1/2" X .025" X 111" so pretty thin and should be easier to tension. $160 so not cheap but Trimasters are like...

USPS tracking can be -- imperfect. I've gotten packages and a couple days later got a notice that it had shipped. This was a few years ago, don't...

I think it also matters where the subject house is located. A style that fits perfectly in Vermont might look strange in Florida. Too much wood?...

But a good bench top sitting on a stout mobile cabinet adds a good bit of storage and uses no bench space. If the bench top's head can swivel you can...

Rebuilding NiMH and NiCad batteries is pretty straightforward. Li-Ion are another kettle of fish, the rebuilder needs to know what they're doing and...

Have you tried Jet's site? They also answer their phone.

Polaroid and Bell & Howell come immediately to mind.

You'd want to check that the device you buy plays the file type you want. I tried transferring some mp3 files to a small USB drive, they played as...

I have a Rikon with a detensioning lever. I'm sure a shop where a bandsaw runs at least once every few days doesn't benefit from detensioning. I...

Easy way to check wheel alignment. I used a piece of 1/4" plywood with one STRAIGHT edge. It was a little longer than the distance from the top of...

I'm not sure about convenience but I've bought 3/8" birch ply from a 'real' sheet goods supplier. Rabbet the edges so they fit a 1/4" slot.

I've found that on Firefox if a web site doesn't function as I expect it often times helps to restart in safe mode. On Firefox for Ubuntu it's under...

eBay Phone Number 866-540-3229 · Customer Service I haven't used that but worth a shot?

That is why my conventional table saw has a narrow rip capacity. Manhandling a 4 X 8 sheet of 3/4" goods isn't my idea of a good time, especially in...

I also recall 7-zip being a bit more secure when saved with a password though I don't recall the reason. I recall that zip files encrypted with a...

Belt sander? I'm not familiar with Quartzite but when we did Corian countertops I did the shaping in place. Yeah, it made a mess:p.

A quick search came up with this. ...

This go-round it's not toilet paper, it's paper towels. We have enough that I haven't looked lately.

That color temperature works for me too. I find 6500K too bluish. For whatever reason I don't find 6500K LED as annoying as 6500K fluorescent but...

I was in Central Jersey and stopped at a Shop Rite. They had plenty. Don't know what's going on with Giant and Walmart.
