Usually just a couple of days. Plenty to do here on the Ponderosa. Not possible to run out of work without leaving home. Self-employed since 1974.
Bandsaw sawyers use it but mostly for keeping pitch buildup off the blades, wheels, and guides. They're sawing fresh cut green wood though, which woodworkers do very little of. They use all sorts...
Correct. They brine the roads maybe once a year every third year. Nothing we own goes on the roads then until after a good rain has passed.
Nearest car wash 15 minutes away one way. 10 minutes here and it’s done. Push button on pressure washer for quick blast off. Foam gun. Long handled brush. Rinse. Hit windows. Done. Good enough.
No problem. Those pictures were already here anyway in my gallery. I can do anything any house needs with tools and equipment necessary, having been building and restoring them for a living for 50...
Complete router setup. PVC pipe is for air inlet and finger protection. Shop Vac gets 100% of the dust and chips-no exaggeration. Deck made from synthetic bowling alley surface. Fence run in same...
Backers and carriers made from English Boxwood. Four 9 lite replacement sash made for that 1850 house in the picture with the shutters made all with hand tools including that reworked sash plane. ...
For big jobs, like the one with the stack of sash that totaled 38 sash for one house, I get a set of 6 custom bits made to my design One is just for a mirror image of the muntin profile for carriers...
Ovolo for the 3/4. Ogee for the 5/8. No exceptions in this part of the country.
There is no good reason to draw bore today's kiln dried wood. Most of the failed old windows I've worked on failed because the draw bored pin spelched the tenon out, especially if that particular...
I was curious about that Kunz, so I ordered a new M&R and the Kunz. Using new unsharpened no.4 Eagle Mirado's out of the same box, I did a one after the other test. There was no comparison. The...
I guess they've stopped selling the Rodentator here. I googled, but it only showed up this version

Not so sure about a landscaper getting up tree roots....
For just a few sash, I would just use a molding plane. I probably have ones for that size sash.
They sent me to Hickory when they changed. They’re just as accommodating and bits just as good..
Whiteside only makes multiples of six of any custom bit now. There is a place just down the road from them that does make singles though. Hickory Saw and Tool. I haven't bought any is some years...
I agree. I feel like a wire nut is to protect a connection, not make one. I also point the twisted wires up when possible, so no way the wire nut will come off, and try to leave it not touching...
Means nothing. Forget it.
Not cordless, but very lightweight and more powerful than any cordless one currently made. This one moves more leaves here these days than anything else. I keep a 100' 14gauge cord permanently...
I think before I would try adding a liquid, I'd try dry Sliica powder like that really fine stuff that West Systems sells for thickening epoxy. It used to just be silica used for the different...
I know the HD/Industrial ones cost more, but I just like them better and that's not the kind of place I care about saving a few bucks. I expect they're also available in 15 anp, but even though I'd...
We have this one at the rental house. It's a lot better than you might think it would be when you look at the lineup and price. It's well worth this amount.

When I cast window sills in place with concrete, I coat them with West Systems after the concrete is well cured. Then paint that with SW best at the time. Haven’t had the paint fail on one yet.
If there is a machinist in the congregation, get him to turn something out of brass for the mating parts. The part into the floor needs to fit in a Forstner bit hole.
Sorry. EGO not echo. On phone
