I am curious as until recently I had never heard the comma called an Oxford comma. Is there another type of comma I know nothing about and if not why is it called an Oxford comma in the US?

I suspect it was in the water before Leo's last video.
Don't use a drill press if you value it and it cost a lot of money. DP's do not like lateral loads and can easily be damaged doing it, I have not personally seen it happen but the general consensus...
Another way to do mortises is to use a Domino and multiple cuts to make one mortise. Derek Cohen has used this method and it works well for loose tenon joinery.
Use round pins/rod instead of mitre bars made from the polyethylene or similar material bread boards are made from. You can even offset the fixing hole to set the sled parallel to the blade as...
I had a mate who did all his dovetailing on a Bridgeport mill.
A good thread dredge. Since my question I have managed to fit a DRO to the cross cut fence on my K3. There is a very good thread on the Felder forum showing a lot of very good methods of adding cheap...
I am aware of what they are and what they do, others may not be.
Leave the OP, remove any posts referring to it and close the thread with an explanation if that seems necessary. The information is still there for anyone who wants to read it which was the intent of...
I ordered a new blade from my supplier and when it came I found it was a no name and made in China. I was not impressed but thought I had better give it a go before complaining and it was excellent,...
Using a cylinder square on a surface plate to check squares is the ultimate way but a bit exxy so I would use a good quality 123 block instead on a good flat surface. The best bang for the buck is to...
I have a lot of experience both with VFD's and running motors over and under speed due to the electrical power supply hz. The 10hz difference on Brian's saw will not be a problem and the only...
I am planning a kitchen build and want to use some 40mm thick furniture grade pine I have for the bench tops. As it is a soft timber I thought of using an epoxy finish such as West Systems but I am...

Why not sort out the vibration issue. Rotation causes the problem there are 4 things that rotate on a bandsaw and it is one of those that is causing the problem.
My 20c worth. If you bolt it down something is going to break so that would not be a good idea. I presume you have spun the bottom wheel using the motor with no blade and it does not vibrate, now get...
I too have watched Tally Ho from the first episode and along the way learnt new tricks to do things. His skill with a chainsaw matches his skill with planes and chisels and that boat is an excellent...
I used a stepper motor but a cheap manual idea would be motors out of powered seats in cars. 12V DC and a bit of wire going to a rocker switch, add a cheap digital read out for about $50 and job done.
Oiling bearings is easy and can be done without removing the shields or the bearings from the machine. Drill a very small hole in the shield just big enough to fit the tip of a precision oiler in it...
Build a torsion box using 6mm skins and 3mm internal ribbing and it will never sag and won't need a crane to lift it.
I gave up on mitre bars and no longer use them instead I use PTFE or similar round rod which can be sized closely in a lathe. Two per jig/sled works for me, I counter bore the location for the rod...
Putting additional devices for dust extraction under the table is not necessary and totally unneeded and the reason seems to be little understood. The lower cabinet is sealed when the door is closed...
Always spread your investments to avoid disappointment when the market crashes.
I don't own one so I wouldn't know. The commentary surrounding the changeover fascinates me and watching those desperate to deny that the world is finally realising cars and transport are undergoing...
There is an undeniable truism around electric cars, anyone who does not like them and their objection is proven wrong will always find another reason not to buy one.
