For things like prepared food they don't use the exact same recipe. When building a plant to make a product you want to have a little excess...

I was under the impression that store brands were made by name brand companies that had extra capacity. With the capacity problems we have right now...

It could be used but it's heading up a state highway in a very rural part that has no cell phone coverage for 15 to 20 miles. There's no cable TV or...

For the first 5 years of living here Hughesnet was the only option. The only cell service was a smaller company that got bought out by AT&T (in a...

Anything over 100 Mbs is good when you don't have a hard line. Even DSL isn't much faster than Starlink. It's the lag of Starlink that is the big...

It'll go up and down but on average that's around what I get. I'm watching TV through a Firestick right now and ran a speed test at the same time...

It would be funny to watch because the antenna moves. Sooner or later of the cat falls asleep kitty will get dumped off. I think the new rectangle...

I have 120 in my drum sander. As for my ROS never anything less than 120. Even then it's more likely I'll start with 150.

I think the material used has made "improvements" over the years. There's a few around here that are so reflective you can't even see what the sign...

A second video since you can only have one per post.

Like others I think they would only work with small easy to split stuff. I would get one of these instead if I didn't have a lot to split and it was...

It has two different motors. The 5hp is for the drum and even if it could be reversed you don't want to as the dust collection will not work. It's...

I looked into their machines when I was looking to purchase. I don't remember too much about them though. What I would look at is how the gantry...

I have a W 2640, not sure if it's the same as the 2600. If so it has a flaw in it's design. The newer Woodmaster drum sanders have a belt to move...

I think you'll be disappointed with a cheap clone. I had a Harbor Freight one given to me and no matter what I did it always needed an upgrade. The...

I think Grizzly is cutting back on the amount of versions of Grizzly tools they sell. Along with the Polar Bear series they also have their Extreme...

No where near close but if I was in Bellingham I think I would venture into the Grizzly store. Not that I really want anything from them right now I...

Mazda has always been one of those small brands that just never grew. It's small enough so when large brands come along they usually agree to...

Some of the hobbyist treat them more like an AR-15. Not so much as a tool to do a job but something they can customize and be proud of what they...

I think you'll be happy with the OneFinity. The basic machine doesn't need to be upgraded to fix weaknesses of the design. At the same time you can...

Amazon search sucks. it seems to think that if you search for something it knows better than you what you want. I find it gets confused if you use...

The OneFinity uses ball screws, not lead screws. The difference is a lead screw is like a nut on a bolt. They both have matching threads and when...

Not trying to make this political but I think companies are starting to assume a recession is coming. If so they will be wanting to reduce inventory...

Using my bulldozer. Everytime I do I wonder why I waited so long to use it. Nothing but bruit force. A rock in your way, push it out of your way. ...

Download the Starlink app for your phone (hopefully you have a smart phone). With it you can see what trees will be a problem. Start there because...

What I don't get is why someone who doesn't know another person would say they are invested wrong. I agree with you 100%. The market is going to...

That's kind of where I'm at. I sort of want one but at the same time I'm not sure if I would use it enough to justify it.

I use a meter made by a company called Red Lion. They aren't cheap but they are industrial grade. They are two piece. The flow sensor, on my case,...

I used a plastic bucket that had chlorine tablets in it. The cover twists to lock itself onto the bucket. Both of the water lines go through...

I've made similar dust collecting systems for various tools. I use rare earth magnets with a countersunk hole in them. That way you can use a screw...
