I think this falls under the "right place at the right time" Steve. Good for you! I've sold a couple things under potential value for a fast sale. Doubt he's hurting for cash.
Beautiful work Dennis!
I've made boxes as short as 1 1/2" on my table saw without issue. Why switch to the router table? With a saw blade the force is pushing back to the IBox, a router bit wants to push to the stock to...
Here's the one I bought Bill. Plan to make a larger table. Not a low-cost option but industrial grade quality.

I had a 12” disk 6” x 48” belt sander for years, sold it and bought a high quality dedicated 2” x 48” belt sander. Rarely used the disk and the 6” belt was more than I needed. The combo machine took...
Ended up getting the Powermatic, very pleased so far. Fit & finish is excellent. My garage floor has a few significant cracks, the elevation system works very well.
Looks great, Mike. Love that urban lumber.
Well done Glen. The ebony is a really nice touch.
Looks great, Bob!
Thanks Rich,
Great memories! I also used the VCR. It aired here on Saturday afternoons, my one time I could count on to be in the shop building something.
Done both but table saw is much easier for me.
If you like Incra you should check out their I-Box jig. I started with a couple home-made jigs but this is really sweet. Used it many times.
Joe, I've had both table moving up and head moving down. Both seemed to work fine but I like the table moving up better. The backlash in the elevation screw moving the table up is always working in...
I bought the 18" version maybe 15 years ago. Very solid saw. No issues. I did replace the guides. Did not care for the ceramic ones.
Thanks Tony. I considered a metal box but is hard to find one that has shallow drawers unless you want to spend a lot of money. I did this one with a deeper bottom drawer for my Lathe Chucks the...
Thanks Frederick
The drawer faces are Edinam, the rest is solid red oak except the drawer bottoms are Burch ply. 3 coats of Water base clear gloss polyurethane.

Powermatic got my vote. My 6" is great.
Trying to get a little more organized around the shop. All drawers have ball bearing slides. Got lazy on the pulls but was ready to be finished.
I cut aluminum every so often on my wood working band saw, wish I could slow it down. Doesn't sound like you would ever have the need.
100% agree Glenn. Open to any brand. I have an older Uni-saw that has treated me right for many years but poor dust collection and is hard to move. Thought about another one but mobility is...
Made this for our poor man's gun club skeet field. 6/4 white oak. I've never done any outdoor projects like this. Finishing was a concern, did a search here and found recommendations for Penofin,...
Has anyone bought a new one in the last couple years? Would really like to hear how you are liking it or not. I've watched Kev's you tube videos.
Over the last 3 years I have updated my major tools...
Well done Steve! Looks like a really stout bench also.
My wife bought me a smock made by Easy Wood Tools. Works great. I've used it for years.
Can you make a pattern and use a router with a guide bushing?
