No changes to the software here in a long time, John. And yes, I was going to guess on 15-16 being the limit.

Yes, drill through holes through the post, pardon the expression :), slip the tenon in all the way and mark the through hole location, pull out the...

I unfortunately no longer can find the photos of the guard/collection head I built but it was pretty simple...a rectangular box with an open bottom...

I really like the good intentions that so many would have to support charitable works if they happened to hit the "big one". On the other hand, a lot...

I agree with you....closed branches have no real effect on performance. Only the open gate(s) have material effect.

When I had my cabinet saw, the Forrest was my go-to for dados, grooves and rebates on the table saw. Do note that it (and many other higher end) dado...

Malcomb, that gate-door is gorgeous!!! So is the art...

Years ago, I build a "more productive" hood for an older Delta Uniguard that didn't actually have dust collection capability. I used .25" Lexan and...

If you want a more massive wedge, it's going to require the taper, IMHO. But your alternative is to drawbore and pin with dowels. Those tenons are...

When the shop itself dictates using the short cone version, that's a good choice over something lesser...'just understand the small difference over...

Woodcraft sells (or at least has sold) universal replacements that will work with most air cleaners. I put one in my JDS a few years ago to replace...

For your application, I'd use a high quality extractor/vac rather than a typically woodworking dust collector because the tools you mention are small...

I see no harm to the 6" drop to the table saw/overarm location and the 6/4/3 split. (You will likely need to use a 6/4/3 wye and adapt the hose for...

John is correct...there is more than one version of the product. Rubberwood is very popular for mass market furniture like that that is made in...

I think I'd put up at least a simple fence to delineate that area of your property that's on the other side of the creek, as it were. A lot of folks...

One additional point...there is a physical limit to the number of images within a single post beyond the 8 that cane be attached...and "smilies"...

That's really nice, Brian! I'm sure the family felines will appreciate it. :)

On the weed tangent, pre-emergent products that discourage or prevent germination have to be part of the maintenance plan. That will reduce the...

I thought there was something like that! I'd go for that for an old work box being mounted at a stud location!

Shapeoko Pro gets you linear rails, although they are still using the belts for positioning. HDZ Z axis upgrade gets you a ball screw there where it...

I guess the information I read was incorrect, Kev. At least you can easily transfer that money out lickety-split into your regular checking account....

Kevin, I have to be honest...I kinda agree with James. To set things up the way you illustrate, you really need a more capable dust collection...

I would consider it if you are going to be spending a lot of time in the space and conditioning it. You may find this recent thread helpful,...

The increase in power is nice when cutting thicker material, but performance wise for most common cutting, it's not a big issue. The 3hp+ machines do...

Something to consider...if you do a lot of crosscutting, you might want to consider a short-stroke slider. You'd rip normally on the fence for longer...

If you mean you only have 120v power available, that's going to keep you in the 1.75hp max range machinery space which most often for new machines is...

If you use the Google image search, you can choose STL, etc., as a file format and then search on description(s) of what you are looking for. If you...

Well...CNC... LOL

Enough with getting personal here. Discuss. Question. Learn. But this is a community so how you say it matters. Please. Jim Forum Moderator

Yea, my kitchen lower cabinets (and the pantry cabinet I just refinished) have ProClassic on them...all brushed since it had to be done in place for...
