I went with corded because it was cheaper and I had space. I'd get stuff used or refurbished, and make stuff work. My first real nice bit of...

Dear Creekers,
I moved yesterday. It's gorgeous. I donated my big power tools away.
I'm thinking of maybe getting a Makita backpack vacuum, so that I can do woodworking without making a mess...
What sorta woodworking do you do?
I've had some luck with doing a festool style dust collection system (3d printing is your friend).
That being said, dust and noise will probably go everywhere....
We just closed on the house last night!!!!!!
Anyways, I'm planning out a workbench right now.
I'm thinking of doing a Rex Kruger Quick Stack bench...but with a maple top.
Btw, thanks for the links to the tool cabinets.
Currently, I'm using a crude wooden chest that I found in Sacramento.
It crossed the ocean in 190X with somebody named Kennedy.
It'd kept my tools...
Offer is going in today. We put in a solid offer...and have a 50% chance of getting the house.
If we don't get it, I'm still probably gonna be trying to use up my rock maple...move the tools....
Sorry, I haven't been on the forum since we're still busy checking out houses.
We were also busy preparing for my son's 100 day ceremony.
I plan to donate my tools to my friend's shared maker...
I'm gonna be doing this.
My friend is starting up a shared maker space for our church and community.
Dear Creekers,
I may be moving to a bigger house, with way less workshop space.
I have power tools, but will have to give them up (I'm gonna donate it to my friend's share space workshop).
I'm...
Dear Creekers,
My wife and I are looking into buying a new house, since we have a kiddo.
We found an amazing place in a good school district, across from a playground, near the ocean ferry, on a...
Best rasps I've ever used were from Udo Pechar. He's a one man shop who also makes surgical tools in Germany.
I bought a fancy Auriou rasp off Craigslist/ebay (never used)....and it's nowhere...
Since the last post, I got married, got a son, and got back into woodworking.
I'm trying to cram in as much woodworking before he starts crawling.
In the meantime, I'm planning to build my...
Any pictures of your work?
First thing that comes to mind is lack of lateral support.
It's something that Stan Covington strongly advised me on in constructing stuff.
I couldn't read the original article, since it was paywalled.
I dunno, I think we're talking to the choir. How many people are passionate enough to actually learn something? Most creekers have...
Hey Charles,
Can you post some pictures/layout?
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around your question.
As for your question about the jointer going into the miter station....I dunno...
Marketing...probably.
If you have the time and means, you may want to slap together a quick bench and get a nice vise.
Here's a dead easy workbench to build using what you have:...
Pardon my ignorance.
Can you somehow vent this outside? Or have your dust collector in a closet not connected to your airspace?
I'm in the process of putting together my first dust collector...
The Wynn filter came in over the weekend. Need to install it. Very fast shipping.
As for the Super Dust Deputy, I ordered a resin one off Amazon.
It was frustratingly flimsy feeling. I could...
Interesting that you mention that....originally, I was going to go for a drum sander, but realized I needed a dust collector.
I ended up getting a dust collector off craigslist that I'm going to...
Was looking for the thumbs up icon.
Not sure how many people understand that time/labor is EXPENSIVE!
If you can double your output with just a duplicate tool, that's a bargain! (says the bottom...
You're correct.
I'm thinking of at least having an area I can sweep towards.
Currently, my FEIN vac has nice suction, but only a very small volume.
I may just ask a favor from a patient and use...
That's good to know!
I just got off the phone with a nice lady at Wynn. Got the 35B222Nano conversion kit, and some small clamps.
If the composite SDD is good enough, I'll get that this...
Just to clarify- Super Dust Deputy 4/5 cyclone https://www.oneida-air.com/dust-deputy/dust-collector-kits/super-dust-deputy-4-5-inch-cyclone-separator
Steel super dust deputy cyclone (5") model ...
Also, any thoughts on the resin super dust deputy vs the steel one?
update: just got a Delta 50-760 off craigslist.
Planning on walking Wynn tomorrow for a Merv 15 filter.
As for n95 masks, those earloop ones aren't very good. I like the 3m 9205+ masks, and...
