Could have been caused by someone fighting it. Remember anti- windmill arms have come a long way since Don Quoxite. Or maybe the guys who...

I’d get another realtor. People sometimes act like dogs in checking out houses . A dog always thinks a used dog house “smells bad”. One of the...

Nice work. I’ve made lots of footage of what I think was just like that. But I was using machines. That pattern was called “Richmond Rail” and they...

The owner is delighted with it. He's like a kid in a candy store now. Things started out with him just wanting to get it done no matter how it...

Agree with Mark. My guess is they they were just wiped off on both sides after use with damp cloth, then hung from ceiling so that air would be same...

I hear you, Jim. Expensive lesson to buy a blade the bandsaw can't effectively use. Anyway, I set up the DIY tension gauge, spaced at 5" OC. ...

Just finished a tension gauge. And I made an Excel spreadsheet for easy calculations. Before starting the design, I put a couple of rare earth...

I don't feel so bad now. I "only" paid $5K for my JP, which had no cord. Plus, it wasn't set up properly.

This entire exercise has been pretty educational. After the blade was cleaned up and lubed, I resawed the rest of the eucalyptus slab to a total of...

I, too, hand turn the wheels every time I do a blade change or make changes in the guide setup. Something learned over the years. There was no sign...

More kinds of alcohol would do....if the tops were on tight. Is that is in-store vandalism, or factory screw-up instead of screw-down?

Appreciate the updates, Erik. I ordered some inserts and table extensions for my A3-31 on January 5th. Still no word on shipping. I sent them an...

I have to admit I'm not all that impressed with the Resaw King. That's the blade we started off with on the zebrawood. It hadn't been used all that...

I just checked on the bandsaw again to see if what I wrote above was accurate. It wasn't. The teeth of the blade were actually protruding past the...

Thanks, Derek. As I said in the first post, the Woodmaster CT really performed well on sapele. And that was my go-to resaw blade for the last 7-8...
