One of these guys has 60 grit, the other has 240. I rarely need anything else. Not switching paper seems to extend the life of the H&L and it makes the work go better.

With your space limitations, maybe you can't have an aircraft carrier to land your planes on. A bench-centric shop may suit you better. Shrink the SS Sawstop and slide it to the right till it's...
We had our house built in '86. In about '89 the assessment went up more than usual. I asked to see it. It showed a finished basement. It was not. Seems they don't even do a drive by reassessment...
Snap lock duct should be fine if it is not put under full suction. Screws and rivets may catch tangly stuff and can be a real pain if the duct needs to be cleaned. Tape around the joints should hold...
Here's something useful around the barn.

It's a boot dryer. It contains a blower scavenged from a clothes dryer. Given the healthy fear of fire in barns this provides no heat, just airflow....
In my Experience they usually prefer shorthairs.
Declare it a learning experience and move on.
As with most wood, apply equal finish to both sides, equal in moisture resistance.
Do you have the bed frame and mattress in house yet? It would be a real frustrating event if it didn't quite fit.
Are you really ready to start cutting wood?
"Bolted to studs in multiple locations"? This seems like overkill. Assuming that it will stand on the floor it should only need a pair of connections at...
Will it be strong enough? Depends on your joinery.
If you store the chisels bevel down it will lift the edge off the wood, possibly preventing rust from moisture in the wood. Also it makes the chisels slightly easier to pick out of the box.
Nice box Bill
Did you glue in/on the plywood bottom?
Yes I have feet on the bench ready to install but it sits beautifully as is and that counter never gets wet. Besides, that would make a place for the kitchen spiders to run under.
These utensils had gotten out of control. For now they are corralled.

African Mahogany and Oak with just a coat of shellac. Hand cut box joints. Yes the stock for the bottom was...
1/8" will be fine for bottoms and cabinet back. Glued in works great. Gives a more solid feel. So just make a 3/16" wide rabbit 1/8" deep for a flush bottom, or a little deeper and plane flush. If...
My brother gained access to a pretty nice mill that hadn't been used in years. It even had a stack of logs he could have. Cost him about $200 to get it going, and a couple days labor. Then he had fun...
When we had our house built in '86 the cost for living space was $50/sq ft. Add a basement $5/sq ft Add a garage 5$/sq ft. Of course the numbers are much higher today but the ratios should be...
Maybe adding a surge protector in the power feed will help.
My small bench is 24" square and 43" high. It's really handy for close work. It's built on an antique table saw pedestal.

Hi Howard What are you going for?
Powered is going to be a bigger challenge and probably won't feel rock solid. Manual can be better if it meets your need. Lift one end and insert a pin or two...
We have lots of counter space but much of it has little used stuff camping on it. I'm #2 in the kitchen so try to say nothing.
Thinking about just darkening the lightest spots using an artist's brush.
Try an automotive or boat upholsterer.
Last time I needed to bend some oak I went to a mill that mills anything he can get cheap and makes pallet wood and crane mats. He sold me very green oak...
A story stick (maybe a 1 x 1 the length you want to repeat) can make setting each piece in place on the sled quicker and more accurate than measuring and marking each piece.
