Yes I too passed on it originally for the same reason and was pleasantly surprised when I watched it. Really chuckled when "gramma" was chipping off...

Sounds like not enough tension or a bum blade, probably tension. Lot's of Youtube videos show how to set tension correctly.

+1 on what Jim said. When I renovated our 120+ year old double brick house I insulated the walls by attaching 2x4's flat against the wall, added 1...

If only it was always that obvious.:cool: My suspicion is that the blade becomes dull very gradually and it could be overdue for sharpening well...

For those that have their blades sharpened, what do you consider the best way to tell that it's time to sharpen?

Can you elaborate on how it doesn't work? I've had a two wheel wheelbarrow for about 30 years, just replaced the handles for the second time this...

Check the trunk for signs of a burnt energy path. In the case of my experience the rest of the tree had no sign of damage.

Lightening is a good question. Years ago we were canoeing in Killarney Provincial Park near Sudbury Ontario. We saw smoke coming from shore and...

I'll be checking the mail for my prize. Is it the free car or the steak knives? :rolleyes:

Just a guess but could that be the bottom of a D E and L as in Delta?

Not a pop up tent style but have a look at this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7JQT7kffNg

When you get to the point where you are spraying and need a spray booth you might get some tips from this series of videos....

I agree with Jim, if you look at the SUVA guard there is no part of it that can't be easily made and the material for it is dirt cheap if you pick it...

Sounds like a scam, not familiar with Apple but if you have an account can you go and look for any purchases like you can with Amazon?

I think if you keep it small it is less likely to deform and it if you put the perspex on the outside with a bead of silicone (I assume the bin is...

Great idea with the bag connection to the bin. For the DSS bin, can you cut a window in it and seal it with a piece of plexi? I think I saw this idea...

Post your question on Youtube, plenty of how to videos on the subject. Here's one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLoEulA4mM8&t=336s

I have heard, and no one has disputed, that Amazon has a pricing algorithm that adjusts prices based on how well an item sells. So if the brand you...

Is there any reason why you could not cut your fence down now and make a connecter to put it back together in the future if you have room for a...

There's cheap and then there is getting good value at a reasonable price. Buying junk food cheap is not a bargain, you pay for it in the end when you...

I agree with Dan. You may be able to come up with a usable table top and fence system (but I have my doubts) but why put all that effort into an old...

Yes got one of those again just last week. Just waiting for the police cruiser to show up and haul me off the jail. Had the Microsoft call a few...

I'm sure Texas gets hot in the summer but why is that an issue when storing chlorine tablets in a sealed container?

I've seen a variation on that where you use a carabiner, you hang it on the tension knob when tight and when you loosen it you clip it around the...

Typically building codes for floor joists (and I assume trusses) are based on deflection not failure so it's likely you would see deflection of the...

Or go to a plastics supply store and pick up a piece of acrylic or plexiglass from the offcuts bin for a few bucks and make your own.

First I'd like to say well done, I think what you are doing is great and will likely make a big difference in the kid's lives. To answer your...

As Neil said above, one of the keys is to taper the bowtie slightly. Otherwise you need a perfect fit between the bowtie and the cut out for it. The...

The version I'm used to includes "with hives".

If the Ebay one doesn't pan out you could check R&D Bandsaws. They carry a lot of parts for 14" Delta bandsaw clones which the Jet appears to be. If...
