I was thinking the deck was too far off the ground for posts, but if it provides access that doesn't sound quite right. AFAIK, most decks are built with a ledger board, and aren't completely...

Here in Central Pennsylvania, it can be a struggle to get people to build things to the standard you want. They adopted the international code, so I assume things have gotten a little stricter. I...

this thread made me look at the local CL. It's not as bad as it used to be, that's for sure. Some decent deals. Most of the good deals are from over the mountain though. I did like the axe head...

if this thread was good for anything, I realized the reason my Porter Cable circular saw is so horrible at cutting is that it has a finishing blade on it. Why they would sell a carpentry tool with a...

Now I want one of those Boston self-feeding pencil sharpeners. I need to mount my sharpener on a block of wood like that, I tore down the wall it was attached to.

I'm not a pencil snob, but a...

a couple of years ago, I went to the timesavers factory and got a tour. We were trying to set up something a lot more precise than most woodworking, but I was really impressed. I know they are a...

a moment of inattention is all it takes for any of us. I feel like I am very careful, but the thing that gets most people it when the saw moves the wood unexpectedly. That's why I'm putting the...

apparently, it's worth $60.

I have one just like that. I want to do the conversion, but it works fine the way it is. Many people are getting by with DC's that don't do nearly as well. Sure, it...

I wish I could get rid of my soffits, I looked in there and it's a mess of plumbing and wiring. They make the kitchen feel cramped.

I wonder if there is a units translation issue here. Seems weird.

there was a weak tornado here a couple of years ago -- F1? Someone took a video of it, it was at ground level. It looked terrifying, it was huge. We occasionally get one that does damage up on a...

I copied the Scandanavian design in the Scott Landis workbench book, was that the Klausz design? Anyway, I do think that having a little different spacing on the tail vise than the bench is nice. I...

the proprietary electronics bothers me a little. If one of the boards goes bad in 10 years, that thing is going to be a boat anchor. Otherwise, it's really tempting

yes, resolved, he posted a few posts back

If someone did this to me, I think I would offer to connect them up with the local company that packages and ships things. They really don't charge much...

if the proposed cpsc rule goes through this time, it will not matter, all new saws will have to have a brake.

I have thought about it and seen people report that they have one with generally positive reviews. That page has a rather large amount of information, does it come with a fence? That would change...

I used to run my DC through a trash can first with no baffle or any other airflow control at all. It doesn't do much for the fine particles, but it sure did get most of the big stuff out.

I have less than 8' ceilings, and my family seems to jump around upstairs. I thought that was only true when they were kids, but they still seem to shake the shop lights that are hard mounted to the...

there are a couple of piles of shavings, but no tools and no sawdust are shown anywhere that I could find. I'm not sure the surface has to be all that well finished

I'm pretty sure Sears made money off of their warranty, because you'd go into the store, get the broken tool replaced, and buy more. Although I think the only people that ever used it were those of...

snakes. Worked in our yard anyway. Snake ate the critters and then left.

I had a PC that I bought with a batch of other tools. Sold it after not using it for over a decade. I think it was used by my friend on one project. Hopefully it's being used by its new owner.

I'm a little surprised nobody else complained about quadcopters being called a "drone." I have a small quadcopter...

Tom isn't grinding soles any more, unfortunately

I thought about adding a toggle. I would like it to be mounted to the machine though. I have the metal drum model and the cheapest plastic model. They both have the same switch.
