Check your drive belt tension, it could be the belt is slipping when you hit harder sections of the wood.

No offense Jim, but you aren't old enough to have used one like that.
Do a search for "antique spoke adjuster" and you will see many examples. My grandfather had one that he used.
We have a timer on ours and it used to help save cost because there used to be an off peak rate and special meters that tracked on peak and off peak use. Because we are total electric including all...
Nice looking mailbox. Hopefully the postman will use it since it an official postmaster approved box.
Looking good.
I don't think there are any standards other than normally the thinner drawers are at the top and the deeper drawers are at the bottom. Since it is a kitchen determine what is likely to be placed in...
I believe the small tool with the wing nut located between the Marsh Plane and the saw vise is a spoke adjusting tool for a bicycle or motorcycle.
Interesting design with holes in the doors....
I agree with Mike. However, if you can blow out the fan end of the motor with compressed air first it would clear any dust of of the switch.
The SMC search function leaves a lot to be desired. Open another tab and use google for the same search it will find SMC posts that are relevant.
Coincidently, I'm working on a night stand with a design similar to the table you showed in your post. I made a little champfer plane that I use to break the corners that I'm not rounding over. The...
I'm 71, don't tell anyone...The problem with Craftsman radial arm saws (and most others) is accuracy and repeatablity. The reason you see cuts at angles in the tables is that for cleaner cuts you...
My phone uses Drive pdf viewer or Samsung notes.
Some wood processor formats do not play well with the Vbulletin software. You may see all sorts of extra weird characters in your text when you post it. Remember you can edit your post for 24 hours.
I still have the original motor on mine. About once a year I pull the little plastic caps over the bearings and add a few drops of oil. My motor is 1 Hp and I find it adequate for all the cutting I...
I've had my 113 saw for over 30 years and I did the alignment about 5 years after I got it. I checked it a couple of years ago and it had moved maybe 0.002 according to my dial indicator. I rarely...
I'll take one. I need to think about replacing the door to my shop from the house. Very nice work.
My saw is a 113.298720. I would definitely recommend changing the pulleys. It has been too many years to recall where I got mine. What you want are machined pulleys of the same diameter and hole...
What is the model number of your saw?
I have a Craftsman 113 model saw with the cast iron open grate wings. I have tuned my saw, added a Beismeyer fence and a Kreg crosscut guide. I also replaced...
It works great on cars, generally I avoid having any amount of silicone near my woodworking. I have personally observed fingerprints on painted surfaces caused by residual silicone remaining on...
When I added additional insulation to our house, I noticed that the added insulation was blocking the air flow from the perforated soffet into the attic. Since the area was almost impossible to get...
Having lived in that part of the country the most likely answer is, most houses in Texas are built on a slab of concrete. They were not built with sustained freezing temperatures in mind. Pipes are...
After giving it some additional thought, I am up over 75 projects in my home. That doesn't count multiple items like picture frames, wood toys, curtain rods and brackets where I made several at the...
I sometime use my phone for taking photos of things. I transfer those photos to my lap top via blue tooth. That allows me to check the photos for proper orientation before posting them on SMC.
Nice work so far. Hopefully you checked the local building codes for maximum and minimum dimensions for your handrails.
