In Salem about 1/2 hour from Clemson
My son is making a live edge slab dining table and will use metal legs made from 1 inch square tubing. I can think of two ways to fasten the legs to the slab one being lag screws and the other being...
The NOVA DVR has a load detection feature, which if the load goes above a set limit such as with a catch the motor shuts down. This limit is user adjustable
Assume you are talking about the Jet machine.
I have a Nova DVR that I've had no problems with and it is 5 years old
Attach a 4" non-swivel caster (Woodcraft 141053W) to each leg at the headstock end. Then bolt two lengths of black cast pipe to the legs at the tailstock end to act as handles. The trick is to attach...
I am 73 and have 3 sons and 6 grandchildren. Each one of the sons and grandchildren have turned a pen as a minimum. One son has gotten into turning after his son won a lathe at the Atlanta AAW...
We have been married for 50 years and she has helped in many projects from installing and engine in a 67 Alfa, body work on a 74 Alfa and she is now a woodturner and artist. She has done pyrography...
It is on the web site the sum of lead demonstrators and regional demonstrators.
Based on a design presented at the GA Turning Symposium I am building my own thread cutting machine. I have most all the parts but need a thread cutter that will go in my lather spindle. Any...
I did one coat of CA over the entire piece then multiple coats of lacquer. I did wear a chemical resp. but the CA gets to my eyes so could only stand to do one coat.

I suggest you check out the Carolina Mountain Woodturners in Asheville NC, only about 2 hrs from you. They are a large club with members from many states (I live in S Carolina) and have...
The project is a peppermill. I put one coat of CA on the entire mill but the fumes drove me out of the shop so I don't want to do that again. Sounds like lacquer will work. TIA
I used CA to firm up some punky wood and now want put a solvent based lacquer over that for the final finish. OK?
How do use the dremel to cut the slot and which bit? TIA
Look up regional woodturning symposiums on the AAW website. The National AAW symposium is in Kansas City in late June.
Were there any issues with bringing wood into the US?
Just a call from my local Woodcraft today that mine just came in. Going to pick it up tomorrow.
I have the original DVR and really like it, especially the swivel headstock. That makes hollowing so much easier on the back. The galaxy is a significant upgrade to the DVR, the headstock also slides...
Does anyone have a phone number or web address for Itura?
I appreciate all the answers. I looked at the two blanket chests I have to make and the resawing needed and the material I have on hand and have decided to keep my 14" Jet, upgrade to space age...
Van: Assuming I find the constraints you mention too restrictive would the Laguna SUV with a 1" Resaw King do the job or would I be better to go to the 18" Rikon at 4 HP? I mention those 2 because my...
I want to get opinions as to the capability of my bandsaw to handle a specific resaw task. The bandsaw is a 14" Jet JWBS-14CS with a 6" riser block. Also has Carter bearing type guides but I have the...

Why do you say the 14 SUV is no superstar. I am looking at it to handle some resaw tasks along with other more general bandsaw type tasks. I don't resaw frequently mainly to do bookmatched...
3799 was for the 24/36 Revo so a 24 inch swing vs Powermatic 20 inch and for 200 less
These are sputniks and it is my first attempt. Think I'll give it a go with lacquer.
