Bwaa-haa-haa! "Jeep, ask an owner".

They look great. Love the design and the execution. Well done!

Bridle joints can also be quite strong. . .

As mentioned, Festool is marketing off of their superior ROS sander performance. Their router routinely came in somewhere in the middle of the pack...

Another happy owner. I use the "fines" number primarily. Like Marc I watch for anything in the mid hundreds area as a notifier. Consistency of...

I take concerns about coatings and depth shoulders with a grain of salt. More of a CYA than anything IMHO. I have never seen any extensive testing...

Just fairing a thumbnail profile on a couple of dresser tops. My 'useful' part of the day grows shorter and my project timelines extend . . . :D

Don't forget the nanobots!!!! Run, neighbors, run!

Agreed. The historical value of some of our discussions has been a boon to me more than once.

I am convinced that all shops have mischievous elves. I started a spreadsheet many years ago to keep track of seldom used items. It now has 9 sheets...

No problem. I'm sure they will get that right back to you ASAP.

They have some pretty minimal delay setups but, none are totally free from the echo effect you are experiencing. Once you get to 20ms of delay you...

Assuming PVA and raw wood I have routinely moved ahead with sub-assemblies being glued to other parts after 30 minutes to an hour (depending on the...

I finally broke down and picked up a new laptop as I use it for inventory control in the out buildings. I got tired of jotting stuff down or taking...

This depends on what you are doing. I would use face frame parts or carcass parts right off the track saw or SCMS for kitchen and bath. For...

The good news is that it is an easy fix and not expensive. When I replace bearings I tend to buy an extra set. They are only a few bucks and I wire...

I would know more of this "vinegar/epson-salt/Dawn mixture" you speak of :D. I have moved varmints along with minimally impactive treatments and...

I have a gravel area with plants. The layer cake goes something like so . . . - original soil - Gopher screen (heavy hardware cloth basically -...

Thanks Jim. There are some tasks that we just consider tedious. The tasks involved with the final shaping of joinery, pulls and other design...

That is some beautiful material. The value beyond $8 - $10/bf for generic walnut around here would be specific to the material and your value of it....

Hard to go wrong with a No 5 or a low angle jack.

I'll just toss in that the fixed table / movable head is a good thing if the machine is able to keep the movable head stable and aligned. This...

Many of us have grown and evolved through the challenges of limited space. I say make the best use of your space that you can and don't hesitate to...

My tools are way more safe than something like an automobile. That being said they are, of course, used with a degree of risk directly proportional...

As you have discovered, when you buy your cast iron router wing or table you have set the dimensions and corner radii of your usable plates or lifts....

Thanks Mark. I try to use continuous or book-matched grain on the 'in your face' surfaces. I have a twisted sense of humor and it gives me a kick. ...

I have an inline muffler on mine between the cyclone exhaust and the hole in the wall where I vent to the outside. The muffler does pretty much...

Amen. Couldn't have done it better ;-)

I have some operations that take an extra step due to what I have on hand to perform the task. Maybe cutting the strips 1/16" wide and then making...

Ad Block Plus user for many years. I am often shocked when I use someone else's PC. I have actually forgotten how much junk you would wade through...
