I'm sure this is common knowledge, but setup and a sharp resaw blade are essential. Especially when you're asking a lot out of a smaller saw.
I have the Laguna 14/12 and really like it. Its a...
Perhaps I'm not the pro that you are. I just like to give myself the best chance of being successful that I can. So for me, definitely an amateur, that means to put in a process that is repeatable...
It's plywood. Just glue the bottom in.
If you can increase your accuracy with almost no more work, why not? True, this isn't a machine shop. But why not start off as accurate as possible, given that this is a ~10 minute process?
I have basically the same setup at the lake. No, I don't have cross braces. The frames are ~1 3/4", with the stiff type of screen (not the nylon mesh ultra light weight stuff).
Agree the 5 cut method is pretty simple and works great. I'd give it a go and see if you can dial it in further. But .009" over 16 1/2" seems like its probably good enough...
Tom McLaughlin is...
Well it seems that the tapered part of the handle and the inside of the socket may be way too smooth. So I guess I'll try some 220 and some hairspray? Its one in particular that is a problem. But...
Hey all, I've spent a small fortune on Lie Nielsen socket chisels. While they're great as chisels, the fact that the handle constantly fall out drive me absolutely crazy, especially given the price....
So I had a room redone in all T&G pine. The natural wood doesn't really fit the decor (there is no raw wood anywhere in the house), so I think I'm going to white wash it, just using white paint...
Has anyone tried to make a copy of the Festool router mortise jig? I like the Festool thing but its a hilarious $405 for three pieces of plexiglass and four knobs. That's where you lose me,...
I haven't used a Tormek but it seems pretty great. That said, I think what I mean is that the jigs make it look super easy to use any grinder. Just saw Mike Farrington's video about his grinding...
I agree. 3HP PCS here, I have and love the Freud Fusion...slightly lower cost than the Ridge or WWII, but an excellent performer for me. I'd give it a look.
Regarding the full vs thin kerf, go...
Hey All, I'm going to build a bed for the lake. Its a queen, so the mattress is 60" long x 80" wide. I've built a few beds before and often struggle with some common dimensions. I realize that...
People are dumb. That isn't going away.
One cuts finger off. One makes decent scratch. But...the one that doesn't amputate the finger is safer. This seems obvious.
Giant step from "available in the lumber yard" to "the very best available," too...
Hearne lists their figured at "$35+," so I bet you can get to $100/bf for stuff like your picture.
Well, I had AI do my NCAA bracket and I was eliminated on day 1, so...take with a grain of salt?
This may be an unanswerable question, but ya'll surprise me quite often...so...
I have a ~15 year old Ridgid miter saw at the lake. it has lived in the "basement", which is more of a crawl space,...
This is a false equivalency, and sorry, but, kind of nonsense. Saying the object, not in use, is not dangerous is silly. Driving a car is inherently dangerous, and cars are meant to be driven. ...
My buddy's dad is a microsurgeon, reattaching fingers and stuff. He said table saws put his kids through college. So not NOT dangerous...
I have the D-handled M18 Fuel one. It's awesome, but it is NOT cheap...
I'd say it would work fine; I am not sure the concerns mentioned above re alignment would be problems. BUT its going to be really low in use. I generally use a Moxon to get the workpiece higher up...
We need s a shop tour! Every time someone has a question, you seem to have an answer stored in some sort of beautiful storage! Impressive!
Like lots of other people on here I'm sure, I ponied up the $130/each for a 12" and 6" combo and a 4" double square from Starrett when I started trying to make things. They're excellent, for sure. ...
