I'm with Kevin and David...simulate the through and through at the surface but use a half-lap tenon in an easier to cut rectangular through mortise...

Make a custom scraper with a piece of steel and some files that you can get in close to scrape the roundover followed by refining that last little...

OP stated that Windows compatibility was required. That's not a happening thing on M1 or M2, other than fudging with the ARM version of Windows which...

The PowerTec hose I get from Amazon pretty much stays "at length" for me and I'm also moving hose around in my temporary shop where I can appreciate...

Your Gladiator should be just fine...I suspect it's multiple boxes, too...saw plus fence, for example.

I seriously doubt you're going to find substantial discounts on the SS "out there", but you can check reputable vendors like Tool Nut, etc., to see...

Building a shop isn't just about the building...it's about some of the in-built systems, too. In that respect, I made a decision relative to dust...

If the service (Capital One or similar) makes folks buy more of things that they don't need and rack up big balances on their cards that they cannot...

Thanks, my friend. The miter you see on the far right is on the Bench Dog Cast Iron Router Table Top/extension wing that I stuck on the end of...

I'll likely go with a combination with things skewed toward hidden. Pretty much all 120v electrical will be in the wall. Some 240v will be in the...

$4.75 at Costco on Sunday...down about a quarter since last visit.

"Productive" week in a sense for me, outside of several days of sciatica pain that was "not fun". :( The week started out with being the "rock and...

Sharp corners are indeed possible to engrave on metal like that with a CNC using V-Carve techniques and appropriate tooling. You can absolutely...

My singular response about the "why" for when many threads like that get removed from view comes down to something my mother used to teach..."It's...

That's similar to mine, Bill. I've been very pleased with it...and paid a bit more for it new, too. :)

Festool also has the cord manager and recently updated it. If I'm not mistaken, one differentiator with the Kreg is that it's a left-blade saw,...

Another reason I suggested the 2019-2020. I believe the keyboard was updated. I have a 2019, although I rarely use the on-board keyboard. It's not...

I'd likely pull the trim and put in additional shims/blocking to stabilize the structure. That and insure that the proper type and length of screws...

Go newer if you can...2019-2020 Intel based. Better performance and longer "OS life" left. Check Apple.com for refurbs. OWC also sells reconditioned...

Keep in mind that some formats of clamps designed to be used with MFT-type surfaces are not friendly to the thicker tops. You might consider putting...

Alex, I can appreciate your concern. The thing is that a lot of folks who are using these cordless tools now have more than enough batteries to...

Actually, from a market tier perspective, it does make a little sense. "Relatively speaking" a huge majority of folks (at least in the US) cannot get...

Festool, Makita and now Milwaukee use compatible tracks. I "think" Mafeil is also compatible, too. DeWalt has its own design track which is very...

I missed this thread previously. One thing I want to mention is that right now in my temporary shop, I have my BenchDog Cast iron router table top...

{rolls eyes} about the nailing...

I believe that's the cost with the Packout, etc. They will be offering the bare tool, too.

The change in sound level was pretty amazing, Curt. So much so that I'm about to re-lubricate again (one year in) to keep things that way! Garage...

The majority of the "surfaces with lots of holes" that a system like this is designed to create are only a single thickness of 3/4" or 19mm-ish sheet...
