I have the small Safety Speed Cut (C-4). I have had a the much bigger H-6, but it really takes up a lot of space. The small C-4 is a very useful tool if you work by yourself with sheet goods. I do...

I also have a shaper, dedicated router table, and three other routers mounted in plates that I can change out in seconds.

Agree that there is NEVER ENOUGH time to get much wood working done.

Hi All.

I am in the market to buy a gun to spray mostly lacquer. I am only a hobbiest and really do not want to sink several hundred into this. I have a real nice 5hp with a 60 gallon tank, so I...

I am getting ready to install my drawer fronts on my kitchen cabinets. These face frame-LESS, and inset about 3/4 in. and will be solid R.O. 1/4 sawn.

What do you use for spacing for something...

I am sorry. Yeah the gap is under the toe kick. The hard wood floor is about a 1/4 inch high a long the wall, which makes the outside of the toe kick high.

Yeah, I am actually making an inlay from 13/16" stock to fill 1/4" dado's.

The pieces are only about 24"'s long, think I will still need two Grippers?

HI All.

I am going to be ripping some 1/4" thick stock. What Gripper system do you use? What accessories do you suggest I get?

Thanks in advance!

Jim

Hi Charles.

The burning is from front to back and top to bottom.

I did try what Ralph suggested today: Rip the board 1/16 wide and the feed back thru. And this did elimate the burning, but...
