Hey Jim,
Thanks!
That still leaves me a bit puzzled over the screw in the end... Where/how do you "score" the dowels exactly for the glue to escape? The whole length, or just stop it just...

@jim sorry for digging up this old one,but did you ever make that post about your little dowel jig/miter/...? It got me wondering what the nail is for.

De averaging out the replies it sounds to me like I should be fine ;)
As I don't have access to a belt sander I'll have a look t what I can do with the lage bastard file I have lying around. Maybe...
Hi,
I got a 5 in my possession thst the previous owner must have something bad to. When I put it on a flat surface it rocks back and forth on two corners. So it's rather badly twisted. Maybe 1.5mm...
Well gents, the cutting is done! The table saw was actually very, very impressive, and had a sliding table for putting the wood on. The new ripping blade went through the wood like butter :-)

Tbh for me the advantage is that the boards I have and the dimensions of the table I want are not great for using solid one-piece boards. By laminating I can effectively try to optimise the...
I.e. the weight would be the same! :-)
I'd have to make it half as long, so... 40", the amount of wood is.... Limited....
Hi Neanders,
About 6 months back I bought a bunch of Beech boards straight from a sawmill. They are 4cm (~2.5 inch) thick, about 40cm (~16 inch) wide and about 2m long (~79 inch). As I want to be...
Oh no! What a violation!!
Thank you for all the replies. I softly removed the burs on the scratches and yesterday I re-ground the iron to remove the nicks. Today I will sharpen the iron again and give it a spin!
And as...
That's a great question. This seller doesn't really know much about hand tools. He just travels to the UK often and brings back tools.
Yesterday he was selling a roll of augur bits, but 80-90% of...
This is actually a "new" Stanley 7 (i.e. 1990's) with plastic handles, but I must say that after putting a nice edge on it it performs very good and it's straight as can be. So, I'll take you guys up...
Actually, I have a picture of the wounded 7 (trigger warning!)

In the "long" direction... I'm mostly worried where the scratches intersect the mouth... Wouldn't that get me into trouble?
hi all,
I has a rather unfortunate event happen today: while planing a piece of old oak a friend of mine ran my 7 multiple times over the pointy bit of a screw. The screw was fine, my 7 now has...
:-) you explained the bit I understood... The part I didn't get was "unless you have a sliding table saw with a minimum of about 2100mm/80" of cut stroke."
I'm really not up to speed on any of the lingo surrounding powertools, ... could you explain this?
Bram
I don't... I'm actually taking the boards to a co-working space somewhere that has a bunch of tools. I don't think they listed a bandsaw as one of their tools...
Now that I see the picture that seemed so obvious...! Thank you!
As I have bark on both sides I might even go for the even easier solution of just ply & nails "on the other side"...
Hi all,
I have about 10 boards of 4cm European beech (approx 200cm x 40cm), with the rough/bark side still on them. How do I establish the first straight rip on a table saw in this case?
I want...
Well, here is mine. ;-) European beech.

Should be enough timber here for a roubo "a la Schwarz". Got a chunk of ash for the leg vice.
If all goes well I'll be cutting her up on the...
I made a mixture of white spirit and parrafin in a spray bottle. Gotta keep it warm, but it definitely did the trick...
Hey all,
One of my colleagues is going to his folks in the states and I was wondering if you have any recommendations for interesting 2nd places for woodworking gear around his address.
Any...
Hey Stew,
Yeah, exactly :-) you should have a look at prices in the EU ;-)
I'll have a look at ebay US to see what turns up. I just thought getting a user through here would be more trustworthy...
