That is the 1300. I just bought a used non-working one for $50. It needed a drive belt, so for another $28, I was into a nice planer (stealth gloat). I found the model number somewhere funny, I think...

Please count me in! Thanks!!

I'm still not sure what the blue line is for...

I just saw that on CNN.com. Sure someone will get a very nice hunk o history.

Imaging turning a hunk of that and finding a musket ball? Wow.

Thanks, Jim.

I resoled an old woodie smoother using Bob's tutorial. I also incorporated some of the ideas into my own Krenov style plane. I'll eventually buy a $15 transitional fore or jack and...

Unless I am missing something here, the wood on the ebay plane doesn't matter. I am looking at a cheap jack. I'll use a fresh piece of KD ash to entirely replace the wooden sole with a much longer...

Forgive me from wandering over from the turner forum.

I want to take a cheap wooden transitional plane, probably a #5 and replace the sole with a much longer piece. Basically I am looking at a...

Wow. Very generous.

I am so excited about this!

General Burnside went on to become Governor of Rhode Island and then later U.S. Senator. Neat history.

Very nice bowl!

I don't live too far away from you---so I want to know---where'd you find the burls???

Bummer, Bernie.

I have the 10" Craftsman, I love it. I think it is a little under-powered though...

I stole mine for $60, on Craigslist, for a practically new one. Still, they're a good deal...

I didn't believe that they were carvings. Seriously, I was wondering why pictures of still lives were being called carvings. Until I saw the in progress shots of the cutting board.

WOW!

Very nice! I get a kick out of that design for a handle.

Very nice setup. How much would you say you spent on the parts other than the fridge shell?

Magnetized tools are dangerous if you are using a metal toolrest. So pretty much they are dangerous. I bought one a couple of weeks ago with very poor results. It now holds my knockout bar and some...

I like your method--I am going to adapt this to handle some 1.25" by 0.5" tangless scraper blanks. The only thing that I would suggest to alleviate the need for the plug to take the center would be...

I have the Rikon on a stand that I featured in this thread:

I wouldn't do it any differently in retrospect. I had the goal of including drawers...

The youtube videos are Stu from Tokyo, who at some point, I believe to have been a contributor here on the Creek. He may still be.

I believe that he moved on to a commercial bandsaw though.

I have seen a lot of gallery photos of turners using magnetic tool holders, so I just presumed it would be okay. I am going to try the HF tool demagnetizer to see how well that works. Otherwise I...

So. I have been meaning to organize the mess of turning tools that have overtaken my workbench. Found a good deal on a 24" powerful magnetic tool holder. Tapcons and a few minutes and this nice...

You could use very inexpensive shower curtain liners--the ones that are semi-translucent are about $6.

Drill the hole while your stock is still square. Then, plug it with an appropriate sized dowel or plug. This will keep tearout from ruining the upper side of the hole as it passes your chisel. You...

The Portland, ME store is out and advising that there are very limited quantities of these sets. Move quickly would be my advice.

When I have turned bamboo, I have found that you need very sharp tools--and you are best off with a skew and maybe finishing with a shear scraper. I of course relied on the 60 grit gouge quite a bit....
