Hey Matthew,

I have the usual garage workshop where everything needs to be pushed to the sides to allow both cars to be parked. I think I can get the Sawstop in, but it would be tight.

I have...

Thanks everyone for taking the time to respond.

Jim, that is exactly the contractors saw that I have. 1.5 HP, cast iron top and the motor hanging out the back. Good saw, but underpowered.
I've...

For the last year or so I've been purchasing rough lumber from a yard in my area. The lumber is much cheaper, but it does require that I spend a fair amount of time getting the material surfaced and...

Thanks for the diagram Frank. It does look like a challenge.

After seeing the diagram, I'm now thinking along the same line as Dan. Go with the ICS and sell the PCS to help offset some of the...

Thanks Frank.

So that I understand how the PCS base is designed, you're saying the fixed casters are always touching the floor, regardless of whether or not the lift is engaged?

I know this topic has been discussed many times in the past, but in doing a search of this forum, I haven't been able to find any answers to this question.

Is it possible to remove the 2 fixed...

Thanks Edwin.

I'm in the process of building a hanging tool cabinet and I wanted to dress-up the small pocket drawers at the bottom of the cabinet.

Thanks for the advise Al.

Yeah I purchased Ashley's video in hopes of becoming somewhat proficient with the "push cut" method.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

Richard, here's a YT video of her turning a finial. I may be wrong (like I said I'm just starting out) but it looks like she does use a bowl gouge, but also uses a...

Hi All,

I'm just getting into woodturning, and like most, I've watched a lot of YT videos and visited bunch of websites.

One of the sites I've visited is Ashley Harwood's site. I noticed in...

Thanks Dan.

Please add my name, thanks.

I've been reading past threads regarding lasering on tile or brick. I'd like to give it a shot, but I have one concern. Is there any danger of the tile or brick exploding while being lasered? If...

Thanks everyone for your responses.

The company that gave me the quote was Calsak Plastics, and the acrylic was Acrycast which as I understand it is their own brand of acrylic. Anyone have any...

Just learning the ropes with engraving acrylic.

Is $3.85/sf a good price for 1/4 clear cast acrylic? The price being quoted me is $113.00 for a 4'x8' sheet, plus $10.00 to cut the sheet into...

Looks great! I know you said you will be redoing the butterfly, but would you mind posting a picture of the back of this butterfly?

You could use the "Find and Replace" command under the Edit tab.

Rodney and Joe, Yeah the magnetic sheets I use now have a thin layer of vinyl over the actual magnetic material. I was hoping the laser would allow me to do jobs involving curved magnets and also...

Thanks everyone for your responses.

Rodney - I assuming from your response, as well as your response in another thread regarding PVC is foil, that the presence of a small amount of PVC is not a...

Does anyone cut magnetic sheeting made by Magnum in their laser cutter. I called Magnum to see whether their sheeting may contain any PVC, and the rep there didn't sound very sure of himself, but he...

Thanks for the responses. You guys are not making this easy:)

Tony, how quiet, or noisy is your blower?

Thanks guys. Assuming I put it through a filtration system, would something like this work?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on purchasing a laser engraver, but I first need to figure out how to exhaust the unit.

In reading through the archives I noticed where some members use...
