Pat, I'm a recent convert. I sold my 3 HP cabinet saw that had rails that allowed a 50" cut to the right of the blade. It was replaced with a MiniMax SC2C with 48" right of the blade. I love the...

My shop is exactly what Jim is proposing. It is pole construction with purlins and osb sheathing on the exterior with lap siding fastened to the sheathing. I have a metal roof, but since our home...

27 mm is just about .012" over 1-1/16.

Jim. I like the layout you just posted. I find "zones" like you show to work well.

I can't imagine why you're not able to break the anode rod loose on the new tank. I've replaced lots of anode rods over the years with the tank in service. One house, I had to buy the jointed style...

Depending on the type of woodworking you'll be doing, I think a 3 HP saw is the sweet spot. My rodded Craftsman had 1.5 on it and it would bog down ripping. I then had a 3 HP Grizzly Cabinet Saw...

We vacationed in the Chattanooga, Tennessee area last week, so no shop time. The weather was great all week and we got to visit a lot of historic sites which I enjoyed greatly. This week we'll...

PM sent for Miter Square

Adam, give serious thought to moving the conduit up near the ceiling. My old shop was like you're talking about and in was a PITA. It was constantly in the way for hanging stuff on the walls or...

My shop has EMT circling the walls near the ceiling with junction boxes every 8' or so. I then have drops out of the junction boxes for outlets down at a comfortable height. This keeps the conduit...

We had our almost 200 year old home sprayed with closed cell foam when we renovated it. Though expensive, we were able to get much better r-values than we could have with other materials. ...

Nope. Hot 1 & 2 are interchangable. You are correct that the Green/Yellow is ground.

Yep. It is definitely a face frame hinge. I figured I would end up making a mock up, but thought I'd see what others had to offer first.

Ah....that makes sense. Thank you for the clarification.

I have some old GRASS 850-01 Hinges that I'd like to use on some shop cabinets. They also have 99-12 stamped in the hinge cup. I normally don't use this brand, so I have no tech specs for the...

Aren't Sicar machines Chinese now?

Nope. The recipe on the Quaker Oats canister with real butter and lots of extra raisins. For bread, homemade whole wheat.

Hi folks,

I just received an email indicating the dealer I worked with purchasing my SC2C has been successful in obtaining stock for their showroom floor and they'll have inventory in a couple of...

It is a product made for treating shake shingles prior to install. Chevron makes a version, as I'm sure others do to.

Nice job. It looks well designed and pretty impressive for scraps!

Thank you everyone for both the congratulations and advice. We're going on a Road Scholar package (We've done several trips with them and like the programs), so much of our onshore time is covered...

We'll depart from Juneau and have stops at: Colt Island, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Tongas National Forest, Hobart Bay, Kake and Sitka.

In celebration of my 5 year clean cancer scan, we've booked a Cruise of the Inland Passage August 2023. Anyone that has done this, share your "Must Do" list or "Must Pack" item. This is a once in a...

John, I had just one leg on the back, right corner. I considered one in the front, but never needed it and liked not having it in the way on the front.

I had this almost exact setup on my tablesaw prior to selling it. My lift was placed per the dimensions you mention above and it worked well. I didn't have a miter slot, but occasionally would have...
