That is a high end version of the Drill Press caddy. I made it just according to the plans. It's a great addition to my shop. For those considering this upgrade to their shop, you will be...
I have had a Triton Powered Respirator for about 6 years. It came from Woodcraft although they no longer carry it. I am looking for parts to repair the face visor and battery. Is this product...
Gary: Sounds like a wonderful plan. Congrats.
Mine is similar. Four years ago, I purchased a home in the Temecula area, not far away by SoCal standards. The five car garage seemed like a...
I installed an oak floor in the house and had a 2.5 gallon container of Waterbased Polyurethane. All my shop carts get that finish. Looks better than nothing and I'm using finish that otherwise...
The chairs are taking shape. I've built two of Hal Taylor's rockers and am starting on the Scott Morrison bar stool. Each of them use slightly different approaches, so there are good ideas to...
I have had really good luck with Ovis Online. I always buy the full extension, 100-lb slides. Prices vary on length from about 8.00/pr to 12.00/pr. Today, they are on sale for 8.99/pair for the 22...
I made my shop wall cabinets out of melamine. I used the "confirmat" screws to hold the carcase together. The doors are mdf with some routed detail to look like kitchen cabinets. They are european...
good idea.
If I do that, there willbe a 35-plus foot run from one end to the other. Anyone ever had experience with runs that long?
LOML found the perfect retirement home. A garden (actually an orchard) for her and a 5-car garage ( read workshop) for me. Now that we are proud owners, here is what the shop has...
It is...
The free shipping says it's good til 11/10. It is only on internet orders. When I selected the Shark Pro Plus it put in a promo code and shipping was free -- though they did add $65.00 special...
I have looked at CNC for a long time with envy. I am considering a mid-range machine, but need something that will handle a 24 x 24 workpiece.
I think the CNC Shark Pro Plus is on the short list....
Rockler is running a special on the CNC Shark line, $200 off plus free shipping.
This puts the Shark Pro Plus under $4000. Plus $100 for the router. And you need a computer
The software on...
I have the Oneida 2hp Commercial DC. At the time they were out of 2hp motors, so they sent a 3hp. I opted for the SnapLock ducting and followed the ducting plan provided by Oneida. Today (four...
Thanks for all the kind words. The wife has a list of "honey do's" that has grown quite a bit while I made two of these chairs. Got to get back to the kitchen and bathroom cabinet doors which will...
No nailguns involved on this project. Much of the work is bandsaw, bent lamination and a lot of shaping with an angle grinder. Then a lot more sanding.
I put the finishing touches on this rocking chair that will be a gift to my daughter-in-law.
I don't get much shop time, so this took me about five months from purchase of wood to finish. ...
Recently purchased a second home that will become our retirement home in about 3 years. The place has a 5-car garage -- three bays will be the shop.
I am considering an epoxy coating for all...
When I retire, I want to learn to document things with video. It is certainly much more difficult than one would think. At least there is a monster learning curve with the software.
I tried with...
I built the Norm version a few years back. Yours appears similar, but with some well thought out improvements. Most notably the table top.
This should be in the living room... Well done.
Thank you for the input.
To clarify: The garage is a detached building with a full divider wall so that three bays are in one "room" and two bays in the other. I will graciously give the two-bay...
I have found a house with a 5-car garage. The house has a 200 amp service with a 100-amp subpanel in the garage. There are two 30-amp 220 circuits and about 3 other 110 circuits (15-20amp). The...
I picked up most of my collection of Besseys on sale at Rockler -- 30% off. Parting with $$$$ was hard that day, but in the last 5 years, I have used them a lot.
Their performance has been all...
I did remove the chip deflector. Without removing that, there's no way. I saw the gadgets you showed. They are available for something around $65.00. If they are smaller than the planer pals, that...
I have this old Griz 1021 (15-inch) planer. I have never replaced the knives and it seems like a good idea before embarking on the kitchen cabinet door project (26 doors and a dozen drawers).
