    Gents,

    Please remember, coticule hones have been used for a long time, high carbon steel has also been used for a long time and the two work very well together. Modern PM11 or A2 and the like,...

    Just for giggles.... Here is a video excerpt from a Jon Eakes monthly webcast where he shows the results of using "Oil Lift, from Save the Oceans Inc." to clean the carpeting his own indoor stairs....

    Copper sulphate mixed with water was often used as a layout fluid for metal work. Dissolved copper sulphate coats steel with a thin coating of copper which allowed scribe marks to show. Later, layout...

    It may be just me, but using a solvent to extract oil from wood does not seem to be the best way to go about it.

    Solvents dilute and thin the oil which helps remove a lot of it, but then the...

    The only time I could imagine a 5hp saw would have an advantage over my 3hp saw (General 350) is if I was ripping 8 quarter red oak 8 hours a day or more, using a power feeder.

    If we are talking a...

    I believe you may be looking for "nesting" software, rather than slicing software which is a term often used in 3D printing and involves slicing a 3D object into slices, but the slicer software...

    I had one for years, a Hitachi job. Nice and accurate, but I just could not dedicate the space to those pesky linear rods sticking out the back. In the 10 years I had it, the only time I was...

    Indeed I have never seen such a tool in a kit before, nor have I ever heard of that name, but then I'm not in the USA.

    Spear point, afaik, refers to a type of scraper used by someone, possibly Richard Raffen? I think there is one tool manufacturer who offers this scraper, but it is not a common tool and would not be...
