Thank you to all Vietnam Veterans!
Wowsah! Very nicely done, Glenn!
We only have HD locally. My wife's HD card gets us mailed special financing offers periodically. HD doe offer Vet discounts too, provided you ask for it.
Last week I glued up 2 of the tabletops that will ride on the rack & pinion assembly. Saturday I spent the afternoon removing the excess glue from 1 of the two pieces, sanded it and then made a dump...
Nicely done as always, John!
jhay, no that isn't expected. You need to go to your settings at the top of this page, then select General Settings and under "Private Messages" select the "Save a copy of sent Private Messages"...
I got two of the sections of the tabletop glued up.
Why buy a block? I drilled a hole into a square piece of wood to the desired depth, put a small eyehook in the block and attached it to my sharpening station with a piece of construction string.

I have used successfully Minwax fast drying polyurethane for years including the last year. I apply it with a sponge brush and/or wiping it on with a rag without cutting/thinning it with mineral...
Obviously, it's not so simple. My last two physcians wouldn't prescribe the medicine for me because of the side effects of damaging the liver. I just live with it.
I have a couple family members who have diabetes and they'd love something that didn't require finger pricks! Our oldest son uses one of the DEX (?) monitors where he can monitor his blood sugar via...
Michael, I bought a Samsung smartwatch. It took me about a week to figure out what I wanted to use. It'll take just a short time, I am sure!
How I managed to miss this project, is beyond me. I really like and appreciate the wave pattern you managed to create in the top and the way you matched the grain in the front top rail and the...
Andrew, I wish life was simple but it's not.
I stayed in management for 14 months before resigning my position and returning to a bottom feeding field engineering position. I was placed in a...
I was hired by a small privately owned corporation when my enlistment ended in 1976. 20 months later after being promoted to management, the company got into a financial bind due to the passing of...
Following a recent article in FWW, I purchased the hardware kit from Woodcraft, bought some hard maple and built a Moxon vice. I don't have a traditional woodworking bench. I have an assembly table...
I continue to wrestle with the complexities of the butterfly extension table I am building. Last week after arriving home on Monday, my wife and I just collapsed on Tuesday and Wednesday. I did get...
These or similar devices are what we used to move MRI magnets through the halls of hospitals or clinics when we couldn't lift them directly into the scan room via a removeable roof for wall section....
I used those roller lifts a lot to move a CT gantry through the halls of hospitals and clinics when intalling a new one and removing old ones.
A gantry can weighed 3,000-4,000 pounds.
James, every piece of apple I turned ended up splitting. Granted, I haven't turned that much apple but so far it's been unanimous! And, that's a shame because the character of the wood is often very...
I am glad to hear that!
I have no desire to get into spraying.
The new dining table I am building is black walnut. I prefer to use wipeon finishes. I have experience and good results with Min-Wax fast drying poly and...
Before we left town 2 weeks ago, I honed my 3/8" mortise chisel and bit, installed them in my GI mortiser and mortised 2 walnut table legs. I diamond hone the outer wall of the chisel flat, the...
