Tony that looks like an older columbian.
Heat gun and a sharp scraper, been there!
Well the saw is back up and running. The switch did come in the day before I got back from work. That is two weeks plus for service. The saws running fine and is working good and I got that wood all...
I’m sure I just got an idiot on the other end. I have been reading that there cs has gotten much better which is what made me feel better about buying from them. It is a really nice saw that fits my...
I would not think a vacuum would be a good idea as it may pull the water too quickly and crack the bowl. If I want to dry them quickly I turn them as thin as I think I can get away with and seal the...
Made one myself out of a 6 inch faceplate just thread 3-4 of the holes, sharpen the screws and put a jam nut on the mack side. Then get a stub center to pop in the MT. Works excellent.
A few months ago I purchased a Laguna 18bx bandsaw. It is what everyone said it would be works great. I found the table not quiet level , when facing the saw as you would use it the far right hand...
I learned to turn left handed for roughing greenbowls. (picked up from glenn Lucas) Out of the line of fire. It only took a piece flying off that weighed a pound or so hitting me in the shoulder to...
Sweet gents, lts of great ideas. I bought the laguna 18bx earlier this year and I will try what is set up from the factory and go from there. The dust collector is a 1-1/2 grizzly G0860 new design...
Wow almost three times as much, I'm in! I can spin a metal bell mouth to keep it ling and just yous it on the drill press as well. then set up the splitter for the band saw. Or can you get a 4 inch Y...
Due to the nature of my work and hobby I wear wedding rings like a nice watch......when I take the misses out on the town. No bling bling for this fella!
This is a good thread, safety is a word becoming glazed over so to speak. I work in the helicopter maintenance business and it is safety safety safety all the time and for good reason. There is no...
Me too I would love to see. I think all would agree, a timberframe just screams ultimate wood shop!
thanks everyone. I realize the chips will go where they go , what I'm trying to avoid is all the fine dust mostly from sanding. 200 bucks is just a bit much for me. I will build a head to hold the...
I'm not sure but the piece on the right in the first picture is a tool for setting planeing type blades. The blake piece might be a stop of somekind
I am setting up a DC for the lathe to catch dust when sanding primarily. I will use it when cutting too but I am looking for some kind of a hood that I can fit a 4 inch hose to. I will make a stand...
If you have one that is epoxied on just heat it up with a heat gun and drive it off. If you do not have a lathe but a sander and a drill you now have a lathe good enough to make a handle. If you buy...
I have several tool handle lengths and for roughing green bowls I have the longest one I think is 22 inches 3/4 bowl gouge. I anchor it low hence the length the shortest handle is about 10 inches. I...
i agree with paul. I have the lacer one and it is going strong after several years, i use it for most of the tools except scrapers. I really like it because it has two rounded edges, two different...
I have done it with and without the vari-grind jig. I prefer just the platform most of the time because of it takes less time. If you looking for constancy you can set your vari-grind on the first...
I know it is frustrating but wood is wood. On the soft maple species I have seen this many times. I seal it with seal coat , then finish it it seams to help it somewhat. but you could always stain it...
WOW, not much else to say
agree with leo
Thank you, I contacted Heineckewood. They did not answer the phone so I sent and email. I image I will hear from them today sometime
I have been reading quiet a bit and if I understand it right, not all basswood is created equal. Is this fact or just some folks threading a needle? I am sure the expert will be able to tell the...
