Be safe.

For me a miter gauge is a necessity as well a sled. Purpose built sleds provide safety, repeatability, and accuracy for creating parts that require a difficult and dangerous cut. In a production...

Sleds are very important for the things I make. All of mine are home made.
There are several tasks that I can not find another way to accomplish, other than using robots.

I wonder if it could be a bridge part? I fished a not too dissimilar looking hunk of steel out of Salt Creek, under a bridge demolition on Old Bloody 40 (old US 40).

Driving at night is back to normal for me now that I have had both of my cataracts removed. Dealing with discomfort from dust, pollen, and worst of all fiberglass is a new challenge. I can drive at...

Swirls from fresh 100 git on a R.O. go deep. It is very difficult to get rid of them. I am sure they can be measured, A few ten thousands of an inch... they do not go away when followed by finer...

It seems like a 1 axis problem?

I am working on a way to slow down our 1983 LT 30 WoodMizer. One idea is to use a variable speed, heavy duty drill in place of the feed motor.

I do not have a whole lot of experience with 3 phase. I did work in an old building that still had its own transformers from before WW II, There were 2 legs that would provide 120 volts to neutral...

I am trying to get educated on CNC. It may be beyond my ability. I wonder if an analogue duplicating lathe could work for drum shells? It might be several thousands of dollars less expensive?
I like...

Nice! It looks I bit like something I made in the past. Mine only held 3, the Daisy, the Crosman, and the Winchester 20 GA.

What do the Pirates and Michael Jackson have in common?



They all wear gloves for no apparent reason

My random orbit and orbital sanding starts at 120. Pryor to 120 all sanding is done with the grain. Bigger RO sanders leave bigger swirls.

Welcome Greg. If the woodworking shoe takes a moment or two to break back in look for Case garden tractor. They are a worthy distraction from the couch, Woodworking is equally rewarding.

Excellent! You are a friend indeed! I have a hard case that I put pannier hangers on for transporting instruments on a bicycle.

Silicone is one of the few sealants that will be food safe.

Bills info + A thread gauge will help.

Silicone is a versatile and heat resistant adhesive. I think it's a good choice. I would get the fish safe aquarium version.

As Michael says (I forgot to mention) sand between coats with 220 or finer. I use polyurethane for in-place cabinets and trim. Learning to apply it and keep a wet edge without runs and drips is an on...

I read a little about Fracking the other day. The pumps, volumes, and pressures used are hard to imagine. I see homeowners pressure washing barefoot and cringe. My unit came with a medical alert...

You could put some plastic box tape on the brick for parting film and use it as a caul. My alma mater burned as well. That is a neat project.

Spar is typically an exterior finish. It should level very well and is not typically rubbed out. A badger hair brush is often recommended. I have always used a china bristle brush with good results....

Here is what the rough cut edges of the Marine Fir from Menard's looks like. It is all Fir and not the best looking.

Our twin bed size bunk bed mattress holders were (are) a box made from 1" x 7" hardwood with a 2 X 4 laid flat for a cleat around the inside. The deck is 5 ply 1/2 inch Fir plywood. I did not use a...
