    Yup a glass of wine in a restaurant costs more but marital discord is not priceless. It isn't the amount, it's the principle. Other than a small pile of US change in the piggy bank I don't have any...

    I've been a member for a couple years and don't dispute the value of the forum or the reasons for needing to charge a small fee to keep the place running. However every week or two SWMBO busts my...

    Thanks for all your thoughts gents, I very much appreciate them.

    My kitchen was done in the same way Ken but as I said in the opening post I don't want to do that on the tables.

    That's a nice cast fan and probably not very strong. I would snake a wire between too adjacent holes and form them into a loop that I could get a slide hammer on. Then I would take a hot air gun and...

    I think the biggest problem for makers is the detection system and not how the blade is stopped. The SawStop detects the change in the electrical conductivity between the wood and your finger....

    I was hoping to find something like these undermount sink clips in a decent quality and hopefully in a stainless. The table (2 1/2' x 4' oval) will get moved around some and that's the reason to...

    The original Performax was a drum driven by the Radial Arm Saw motor, the drum support arm clamped to the column. It came with a pulley that was held to the saw arbor with the blade nut and washer....

    Here is a link to the Shrinkulator. It will show you how much the slab could move over the plywood that won't. I don't think much of his proposed method, I'm an amateur too though. I would consult...

    There was a remnants sale at a countertop place and we bought a slab of granite that they will cut into a small tabletop and a larger oval table top. We are going to use them outside on the decks...

    Once the air in both tanks is drained and the compressor is running flat out you will have to stop and wait longer until the air is built up again in both tanks. The second tank will do little good...

    The vibration of a router bit in the drill press may loosen the chuck and off it comes. That's why drill presses make lousy milling machines and overhead routers.

    Nice compressor. A tank after it will act as a “surge reservoir” and dry the air to some extent too. I have a 5hp two stage 80 gallon compressor and it is quite loud.

    Jerry where you live has a big influence on what dust collection and how fast you get it. Guaranteed you'll only open your shop once to plane wood at 40 below. ;)

    I don't have a shaper so haven't bought any. I bought a book from them decades ago about grinding but have always kept them in mind. I may be wrong but I believe corrugated washers will be needed to...
