That makes sense, Julie. All my snap-lock is 26 gage "stove pipe", whether sourced from Oneida or from the 'borg. (they do actually carry it here) In...

Anne, it's very much a fact that geography plays a roll in the real estate game. If we were free to move, I believe we could come up with some very...

I would be supportive of a defined area for business practice discussion. I would hope, however, that discussion of woodworking techniques, tools,...

Yes, there have been various combos, Lee. I actually think my black one and red one came in the same package as a "two-fur". I actually like...

The motor is working the least when there's no air flow through the impeller. Impaction of the filter reduces the load/heat.

Were things like that available around here, I'd consider it Anne. But alas, such properties are few and far between. The one I know that is...

My other one is red, Lee. I got them at HD and they had both black and red. The belt hook sometimes comes loose and since I don't use it, I remove...

Quite true, Doug. But I'll add that it's a nice place to keep copies of documents because you actually know where they are. :) There are always...

I actually did that when our electric service was upgraded in 2005 so I could have up to 200 amps for the shop as well as a new panel 200 amp panel...

Nate, Patrick moved on to a huge Martin jointer in his shop and sold the Felder. He's no longer a member here and will not be able to reply to your...

Grizzly actually has guide upgrades available in their catalog including a ceramic option. They may or may not be adaptable to your machine,...

Here's a photo I found in an old "IRS Auction" listing from 2007...it may or may not be the same configuration as what you are considering.

It keeps the back of the band from being pushed rearward from the pressure of the cut...that could screw up tracking, etc. It's merely providing...

I use these and have been very pleased with them. No way they are going to close while the business end is in use...

Thanks for mentioning that, Jim. I for some reason always forget about Mike Quinn, despite him being nearby...

The cherry desk I built for Professor Dr. SWMBO in 1997 (my first project, actually) uses this same general design, although that one would be...

I'm not going to do an actual count, but it's a reasonably high number when you count furniture, decorative things like picture frames and other art...
