Not a response, a rephrased question from the original poster.

I agree with others - leave them 100% as is. Most slab-buyers know what they are getting and if you sand them, the buyer is most likely going to flatten them with wide planer, by hand or on a...

Those prices sound about right, 12-14 per bf for 12/4, even more for 16/4. Sometimes you do get lucky - I scored some hard maple it is 8/4 but measures just over actually, and got it for about...

I don't have a track saw since the number of time I would have needed it so far is about 2 or 3 in the past year, so I find an alternative method. Most of the time I need sheet goods, I bring...

Ok - I am convinced to try some risers before going with an extender.

I mostly finished my flattening sled. It has been slow progress from other project and time. I was hoping to not need a collect extension but it seems I will to get just a little more reach for...

English Brown Oak is nice but is it really worth 15 bucks a board foot? Ouch!!!

I agree with others, oak is not the 'best' wood for a workbench. I think white is less 'splintery' than red but...

i built my bench for under $500. I used kiln dry select construction lumber to build the base. I picked up a 72x39 butcher block counter, ripped down to 30"wide and used the cut-off to make the...

I know many mentioned festool and some other brands. I went to festool for the dust collection and reduced vibrations. Sanding now isn't a a nasty painful job, even fun sometimes. However if you...

James,

I don't think you will get the same level on nonsense responses you see on say, Facebook woodworking groups. I honestly think most people here are of a different thought process when it...

Laguna also has 10% off, but only on their higher priced industrial band saws and CNC. Sawstop also is running a promo for a free accessory. So maybe a good sign that the inventory is up and the...

I've made some 4.5x4.5x2.25 boxes on my table saw iwth no problem. I always clamp them in place.

I was getting some shocks off my 4" hose going to my dust-collector. I wrapped a bare copper, spiral around the few feet of flex hose and put it under the clamps on both sides, making sure it was...

Well this was a long awaited project with tons of other things in the mix but I finally got the rails, plus my in-laws friend was moving and asked if I wanted his router table setup. It was small and...

I agree with this - no more straight knives, unless quick set type that are indexed (like a dewalt planner) or a setup like JET's quick-set knife jointers. It used to take me an hour to get my...

Being that people use youtube to learn, someone might follow suit and lose a finger or get kickback. I reported this post to youtube with comments as the the dangers involved in this video.

My local place doesn't post prices online but Hearn Hardwood in Pennsylvania has their walnut from 4/4 to 16/4 from $4.00 to $25.00 per bf depending on the grade. $13.50 seems very high.

I have a Laguna 14BX, and I just saw a hammer N4400 and if I was in the market for a new saw, that would be my go-to. Felder is the bigger brother and I suspect the same quality of the Felder and...

She was bored. Everyone is pretty to someone, so my taste may not be yours or someone elses. So I will refrain from that discussion.

I have been using 3M Xtract Cubitron II which is a screen. I've used it on my Milwaukee RO and also Festool. Always with the protective pad installed. The dust collection is great as it's a screen...

Both of my kids have tops from NJ Woodturners from a number of years ago. Passing the both, my son, no 16 said, hey, I still have my top from them and give it a spin once in a while. I didn't...

I spent a few hours at the wood working show in Edison, NJ yesterday. It is smaller than it has been in the past with less vendors but overall a good turnout of vendors given a fresh return for the...

I have woodpecker's original saw gauge and it works just fine. I am a huge fan of woodpeckers tools but there does come time when cost becomes a factor. I also have woodpeckers squares and use...

I always try to get rough lumber. It's usually 15/16 or 4x4 and if I need big pieces sometimes I will go with 5/4 knowing I will lose a lot but I will get clean and strait 3/4 S4S from it.
