Don't quote me on this. Please consult your neighborhood electrician.

I believe NEC says you only need 10 gauge ground wire up to 60A. And while the outlet may be "self grounding", you shouldn't...

Would a dado on the bottom of the cabinet disrupt usability? If not, the easiest way is probably rabbets on the cabinet edges that slide in grooves on the cabinet (i.e "hardwareless"). I just used...

Finished my first cabinetry project. Built-in vanity for a bathroom renovation. The renovation was specifically done to look inspired by the original bathroom in our MCM home, and the built-in was...

I bought insert cutter heads for my DeWalt735 and an old 6" Grizzly jointer off FindBuyTool. Price was right, and products came as described. Didn't have any issues with install and they've worked...

Taylor Tools works sells a replacement for PEC squares. May be similar enough, and potentially worth a try for $10 plus shipping.

I used tempered hardboard glued over a double layer of MDF. Only did that because it was cheaper than buying a piece of laminate. Works great. I wax it occasionally and it stays slick. If I had the...

I've used an offshore brand of bearing slides from Amazon (Aolisheng) for shop projects, and for the price I can't complain.

For budget undermount slides, I've used the value line from Cabinet...

I have 52" rails on the TS fence, so I use the fence as the "stop". Just have to use a spacer so that you set the cut and clamp the workpiece to the sled, but then edge of the workpiece doesn't ride...

Are you using a hold down clamp on the piece? Should also help prevent it (or the fence) from shifting as you move through the blade.

If that's all good, I'd continue to look at whether the fence...

I still don't get it. This whole line of reasoning seems to be based on supposition and assumptions. Not to mention a baked-in implication that experienced people who use saws other than SawStops...

Being fast and loose with a safety regime is not limited to SawStop owners. The idea that SawStop owners are more likely to adopt practices which are less safe is all conjecture. The fact that it...

If you are going to tear it down and repaint everything, matching exactly may not be necessary. When I refurbed an old Delta BS, I used Krylon Farm and Implement in Massey Gray. They also have a...

This isn't completely accurate. It has since been reported that Bosch was offered a deal to license the technology and reintroduce their saw in the US. They chose not to do so. The likely explanation...

One of my recent China tool experiments was buying this thing:

I've only tested it out on some softer woods so far, but works as expected.

I actually did end up buying one for my 735, as well. For the price, I can't complain. I didn't note any glaring machining issues, and installed without trouble.I didn't have any of the inserts...

A couple ways on the marking that I've used:

Pointed grub screws. Screw into the thread holes, place bars in slot, then tap the base to mark the holes.

Put a bar in the slot, then slide the bar...

I think this is a key point. Going back to the beginning of the story, Gass supposedly offered to license the tech to companies after he first invented it. They all said no, likely because they...

Are large, multinational tool conglomerates not capable of hiring attorneys with similar patent experience? If not, they seemingly have more pressing problems to address.

The guy spent a lot of...

He didn't make it impossible. He made it difficult for people to do so without compensating him for his IP. If you want to talk about a chilling effect on product development and free markets, then...

Here's another recap of this, that also contains some additional interesting details.

Most interestingly, SawStop has already...

I wouldn't. But only because I doubt they could hit the tolerances required to make it operate as effectively as you hope (at the bargain price point). That's the thing about the Domino. It does feel...

The other thing I think happens is that said hobbyists latch onto it because of how prevalent it is in those channels/videos. I wonder if these hobbyists with $1500 to burn would be better off with a...

I have the Excel 1 kit from Veneer Supplies, which is a 1.4cfm pump. Probably similar to the VacuPress 150. Honestly, it's worked well for me. The VeneerSupplies site says it shouldn't be used on...

I've bought a fair amount of stuff from Banggood and AloiExpress. I've avoided TEMU though. While I'm generally pleased, I avoid buying anything with a motor.

Agree with the HF option. Or you can...

That company sells a 2-row and a 4-row. The 4-row (which I linked), actually has more cutters than the Byrd (56 vs. 40).

Now the point of "who makes this" is absolutely accurate. It's coming out...
