Hi Greg, PM sent.

Thanks for the Harry Epstein tip, that was a winner!

Hello! I’m hoping to find a 6” Combination Square in nice condition. If you have one collecting dust, let me know. Thanks!

That's a good point, Michael. I'll probably just go for it.

I have a Rikon 10-325 with the fence rail that only covers the left side of the table. I'd like to get the longer fence rail from a 10-326 and install it on mine. It seems like I've seen somewhere...

PM sent. Thx

Thanks, Paul! That’s really helpful.

I’m looking for some panel clamps. Has anyone used the panel clamps sold by Peach Tree that attach to user provided wood bars? Looking for a review and/or other recommendations.

Thanks, Jim! That’s super helpful.

So I was looking through a box of old tools from my grandpa and was hoping that I could get some help with identifying a couple of items:

After trying out both the Dustopper and Dust Deputy, I've settled on the Dust Deputy. I use it with a 6.5HP Ridgid vacuum and it will primarily be used with power hand tools.

I'm curious, for...

I’ve started to use a Dustopper with my Ridgid shop vac. The Dustopper lid makes a very loud whine or whistle (it’s so loud that it makes the shop vac sound pleasant).

Has anyone else encountered...

Wow! That Lee Valley Seconds sale went fast! At 9:10am, I went to check-out with the Veritas Router, Plow plan and 20tpi dovetail saw. Unfortunately, the plow plan sold out before I could get...

Thanks for all of the input! The opinions seem pretty definitive and one-sided. Maybe I’ll get lucky enough to pick one up at the seconds sale…

I’ve slowly been accruing more hand tools and I’m currently looking at router planes. I usually buy used, but the price of used router planes makes me think I’m better off buying new. The Veritas...

Thanks for everyone's 2 cents! I went ahead and purchased the DVD set along with the book. $20 isn't too much and I agreed with Luke in that there's value just in supporting Sellers work. I'll...

I'm looking to buy Paul Sellers Essential Woodworking Hand Tools book. I see that there is a DVD set, as well. Does any one have a review of the DVD set? Is it worth the extra $20. Thanks!

Yeah, thanks for that. I'm really trying to take a simpler perspective with tool buying. It's so easy to get caught up in collecting everything and only buying the "best." Or do I really need 3...

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'll start with cleaning it assembled. The saw is just a "Warranted Superior."

Hello all,

I picked up this miter box on Craigslist a while back for $40. I'm about ready to do the clean up and I wanted to see if anyone had any tips.

My plan is dismantle it and soak in...

Thanks, James. I'm leaning more towards your suggestion...

Sorry I went silent on this post.

Steven, thanks for the photos. My marking gauge isn't constructed like yours, so the assembly won't come out so easily. There are some brass pins holding it...

Thanks for the suggestion!

Not sure I can the slider out though. Both end pieces appear to be pegged in with copper pins.

Approximately 30 years ago, my grandparents were downsizing and preparing for a move from their lifelong home in Pasadena, CA. My grandfather let the rest of the family know about an upcoming garage...

Thanks for all of the helpful feedback everyone! So helpful to be able to tap into the wisdom and experience contained in this forum. Any recommendations on how to treat the plane after the Evaporust...
