The Starrett squares are cast iron.

I also had my first ever blade snap yesterday. 1/4" blade on my 14" jet. It was a pretty new blade and it broke right on the weld.

If you invite someone over to dinner, set the table and prepare a meal, then treat them like an intruder at the last minute, is that OK because you own the house and payed for the food?
He didn't...

For your own safety this is good advice. But I believe they were in the wrong, as it is against their terms of service to deny you travel after you have boarded.
Even if they had the right to...

It seems that the image is not visible. Is your intention to make more of these to sell?

I was just about to post this, I assume you saw Jimmy Diresta's video?
This is some really amazing stuff, and the mini workshop is very cute.

The only downside I have experienced using planes to finish a surface is that you need to stick to that method for all surfaces, or else the contrast between planed and sanded surfaces can be...

I just started getting into bread and pie making a few months ago. I have mostly been using recipes from Julia Child's The Way to Cook. The pie in that book comes out very flaky and buttery, the...

I am not a 'pro', and I wouldn't really call this weird, but maybe you could still learn from this. The main challenge here was a general lack of clamps suitable for the task.

I have a few of the Freuds and a few of the LV bits, I have to say I much prefer the Freud. They are quite a bit sharper and cause very little blowout. Also the shank fell off a lee valley bit the...

I have found this regal to be much more calming than the one Alan put up:

I had considered making something like this for my project, it would have been...

I would not recommend the 'lean and mean' grizzly planer if he isn't into tinkering with things. The snipe is not great even when the tables are adjusted, and if the depth of cut is even just a...

I don't think we do the science olympiad, I did that in middle school though. Our big thing is the First robotics which we tend to do very well at. I tried that for a while, but my interests have...

This is a high school English class called WISE. We take regular English the first semester and then everyone does a big project the second semester, this is open to anything we want to do. Other...

For my senior English project I have been building a small three stop pipe organ, which I thought some folks here might take interest in. I started about 20 weeks ago and it is only now making sound....

Little box for Mother's Day. The main wood is sapele, and the drawers are poplar lined with sheepskin. I didn't start this until Saturday so I left it unfinished for now. I also spent some time...

Hi John, I'm in Ithaca, NY. I probably wouldn't have time to make the trip anytime soon, but if you gave me some more information I could think about it. One thing I forgot to mention earlier is that...

I am thinking about finally getting a proper dust collector after many years with just a shop vac. My primary interest is improving the air quality, the mess I can handle considering the shop is only...

I think even the most inexperienced neanderthal would have better results with hand cut joints.

New tools seem to be magnets for abuse. The first board I planed with my brand new Lie Nielsen smoother had a rock embedded in the surface and put deep scratches all over the bottom of the plane. The...

I have been using a Skil brand that looks exactly like it for about 3-4 years. I really don't have any complaints about it, it drills holes like it should. There is no wobble and the motor delivers...

It seems to run a little bit faster, but usually any fresh install is. Otherwise the functionality is all the same with a slightly different interface to learn. Unfortunately the file explorer is not...

I have been satisfied with mine, but they required a lot of work to get the backs flat. Two out of the five chisels I purchased had convex backs, overall the entire set took about six hours to get...
