And yes, since you are already in a battery ecosystem,...

It was pretty nasty for sure from the grey tinted Rubio that happened to drip on it during some recent projects as well as the natural darkening and color changes. It will sparkle for awhile when I'm...

A proper cyclone separator will, um...separate...both larger and smaller materials out of the air stream. While it might seem counter-intuitive, even the fine particles obey the laws of gravity and...

One of the challenges with "interim use" of a cremation box is that quite often, the opening is in the bottom. You can certainly get around that using various box making techniques that would permit...

I've been meaning to "actually" flatten my main bench top since I made it a number of years ago, but never got around to it. Back at the old shop, the plan was to take it to Bucks County Hardwood and...

I have the Speedball in my shop...$25 for 16 oz and that will likely last for a very long time. I bought it on the recommendation of Jason Bent.

The best solution for that is to move to pre-separation, such as moving to a cyclone system where nearly all the dust never gets to the filters.

That little collector is unlikely to keep up with a drum sander like that...it will not be able to move enough air, IMHO. You cannot go by the CFM that the manufacturer uses for marketing...it will...

Wagos are easy to use and if you do a tape wrap after clicking them closed, they are not coming undone. You don't just stab the wires in...you open the clamps, insert the leads and then close the...

It's true that a part time user will have to get into the habit of "battery management". But most of us already have to do that for our drill/drivers so that helps and if one can stay in the same...

There might have been a time when your concern would be "more valid", but the construction industry certainly has embraced cordless in a big way and the "major players" have stepped up with very...

And only one of them is new...all the rest came from the old shop and our old kitchen. (brick floor) It worked out nicely for the new shop for sure!

This past week I finished up the Systainer storage project, albeit I'm going to call it "phase one" as I plan on a couple more cabinets on top of those between the door and the flattening table when...

Permits and zoning are two separate things. While a residential accessory building under 200 sq ft might not require a permit, it will still be subject to zoning setbacks in most jurisdictions unless...

As long as the oil based product(s) are cured, abrade and then use a quality primer followed by a durable paint, such as Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel or the BM equivalent.

There is often dispensation for garages relative to side-setbacks compared to residential accessory buildings and other structures and that likely stems from the very real fact that driveways,...

"Rainbow" poplar is just regular yellow/Tulip poplar that is stained from minerals in the soil it was growing in. There is no way to fully assure you can retain the full effect over time, especially...

If only...but that's not really something possible. ;) Not only is it not a function of a planning commission, that particular "sport" is subcontracted out to Waste Management. :D

Three years this past Tuesday was our "house-a-versary". I got "drafted" for the commission by a neighbor who is an elected council member a year ago. In January, I got stuck with "the job"....

Michael identifies one of the most accurate small table saws going at present from Festool. I does have limited rip capacity so combining with a track saw and parallel guides for wide rips is...

That's a beautiful and functional piece!

That's the style I have...the previous owners of our previous property were school teachers and left one in the building that became my shop. It now lives here in the new shop. It's a Boston brand.
...

Actually, at our old property, we had two units; one for the "original" portion of the house (kitchen, powder room and original master bath) and one for the large addition. (new master suite, new...

This is good advice and consistent with my own experience. I made it a point to get to know the local code officer and his second in command right from the first project here after we moved in. That...

Building codes and zoning requirements are ALL local. Your local zoning officer should be able to answer the question, even if office staff cannot. If you go to your jurisdiction's website, you...
