I don't know. I am sure that the top could have been salvaged but he said he through the top away a few years ago and I only met the guy with the saw a few months ago. I have seen some pretty nasty...

Hi,

I may have a chance at getting a free Steel City3 hp cabinet saw. Like I said in the title it needs a top, it had an iron top when it was new, not a granite one. The owner of the saw had the...

Hi, If your friend is not already a member he might want to check with the Midsouth Woodturners Guild for people living in Memphis who might be interested in the stuff he will be selling. You can...

Urushi lacquer from Japan and Asia. It is 100% natural, is hard as a rock, is water proof, and is absolutely beautiful. It has been the Asian food safe finish of choice for thousands of years. The...

I checked out the Alex Snodgrass video and I think that will help me out a lot too.

I looked at the blade guide assembly and that looks like it may be part of the problem. I will look at it a little more carefully and shim it at the riser block. Once that it done I will see what...

The thrust bearing is not an issue. I can have it all the way backed off and I wond have any issues. The problem that I have is the bottom portion, the one that holds the blocks that hold the blade,...

I tried to attach pics of my blade guides. I hope this shows the issue I am facing. The thrust bearing can still advance quite a bit.

It is the import version of the Delta 14" and has your normal Delta blade guides. I will try to take some pictures tomorrow. I looked at the bottom guides and they are set next to the gullet as the...

That is important isn't it it is a Delta 28-206 import 14" with the quick tension release that I bought in the late 90's. It is a good and with the exception of the blade guide issue I haven't had...

I have a strange problem with my bandsaw that I need some help with. I have a half inch blade on my bandsaw and with the blade tracking on the center of the top wheel the blade guides will not...

Thanks for all the info. I did some more looking at my sub panel. I realized that I was checking the power at the main breaker with the lights on which messed up the reading. With the breaker of...

Hi Everyone,

I recently moved into a house that has a small one car garage that I am turning into a workshop. The floor of the garage was poured so that there would be concrete under the car tires...

Thanks for the info. I guess I will be waiting a little longer.

I recently saw a coupon for the central pneumatic pancake air compressor at Harbor Freight for about $40.00. I need a good light duty air compressor for blowing out turnings, blowing of dust, maybe...

The tools by Makita, Hitachi, and Ryobi are good, if not great depending on what you are looking for. Their compound miter saws, routers, and nailers, are excellent tools.

I spent the last 5 years...

If anyone is interested, if you copy 削ろう会 and put it in google you will find some good pics of past Kezurou kai meetings.

Brian, Kezuru 削る means to shave, take a shaving, or to plane. kai 会 keans meeting. It is actually Kezurou kai like Pam wrote. Kezurou is a verb form that means "lets plane" or "shall we plane". ...

Hi I am a frequent lurker and a very infrequent poster. I saw this picture in a Kezuru Kai news letter and I thought that the neanders would enjoy seeing another way to make a laminated plane body. ...

the Bridge City Tools DJ-1 is a really cool. Check out the videos on their site. It may be what your looking for. It is expensive but I think that it is worth every penny.

I am pretty sure that the wood that they were using was very carefully selected Japanese red cedar. I can't imagine that they would be using anything else because most of the buildings I see are...

I have seen plane blades here in Japan that are well over a foot wide and they are for one person only.

I was at a Kezuro-kai a few years ago and there was a really nice gentleman making full...

Dave, that Horyu plane is a beauty. In case you are curious, similar blades are not easy to find over here either. I have only seen them once at the Miki City tool festival and no where else. You...

Hi Ben,

I hope that you are enjoying CFC. It's a great school. I had a great time when I was in the 12 week class. I had a great group of classmates and I don't think I ever laughed so much in...

I would always like to find a way to work more efficiently. The appeal of the JMP, for me, is in its versatility and its potential to improve my efficiency.

When I first started woodworking I had...
