Did the videos you watched include the sanding video from Stumpy Nubs? I recently watched his sanding video and multiple times he talked about avoiding pigtails.

In my experience, I tend to get...

I'm recalling a thread here years ago where a guy bought some Chinese plywood and found a basketball inside. That's was pretty hilarious and downright sad at the same time.

Thanks, Captain. (Navy vet here!)

That looks really spiffy!

House was built in 2019.

Thanks, Jim. I always appreciate your input.

I've seen The Wood Whisperer's wall he built in front of his garage door. However, I still have to park cars in my garage. I know, it seems...

My doors are the sectional doors on tracks. They're pretty new, so the seals are in good shape. I suppose it can't hurt to install extra seals.

I'm recalling my real estate agent said he could...

I had not thought of renting a machine to blow in the ceiling insulation myself. Thank you for the suggestion. Is doing that better than fiberglass bats because it's easier or because it's more...

I just moved to a new house where I'm putting together a woodworking shop in the garage. It's a three car garage which has drywall on the ceiling without insulation, open studs on the outside walls...

I'm glad to hear that. But sorry, I was never very impressed.

Funny, I used to live near Colonial Williamsburg. I visited multiple times, but I always found the place downright infuriating. Almost every single building a 20th century re-creation and almost...

I'm not an expert with Amish culture, but I am somewhat familiar with it. Consider it's not one, big Ordnung like the Catholic Church. Each Amish community is independent and they have different...

I too have visited the Denver Rockler only once. I made the drive when I was getting into woodworking and wanted to compare it to Woodcraft. I walked out with a dust collector, planer and dovetail...

We will be hosting family for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'd be in the dog house if the holidays rolled around and we still didn't have a dining set. Another advantage to this particular dining set...

I'm well aware "Amish" doesn't really mean much. (I'm recalling the "Amish" space heater commercials I used to see on TV.) Believe me, my dining set is heirloom quality. I'm not the most advanced...

I can relate. I go bonkers listening to bad Techno music or that all too common fusion of the themes from "Charlies Angels", "Fantasy Island" and "Love Boat".

Mrs. Pat and I just moved into a new house. (Not brand new. It's about 2-1/2 years old.) Unlike our previous house, it has a dining room. Of course, Mrs. Pat wanted a dining set. I'm getting my wood...

Considering the cost of sheet goods, likely a track saw helps contractors to get the cut right the first time. The proverbial "do-over" is now pretty expensive. And with modern lumber packs for new...

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone. I appreciate it.

I'm going a 36". I just don't have the room for a 52".

I thought I might be able to save some money on sales tax, but when you add the cost of shipping, it's likely a wash.

This is very helpful. Thank you, Al. My neighbor has a high school boy who is happy to help me lift things. I will be sure enlist his support.

Very good points, Jim. I do indeed like to support local businesses and like the idea of customer support I can easily reach.

I'm wondering if the saw could be loaded into my midsize pickup (it's...

After kicking around multiple options, I've decided to buy a SawStop 3HP cabinet saw. (The Harvey is very attractive, but in the end, I wanted the SawStop technology and it makes Mrs. Pat feel...

I'm surprised to hear about the Grizzly jointers bogging down. I've never had that issue. I seriously dogged it building my workbench. It has a hickory top and that stuff didn't phase my jointer....
