Thanks everyone! I can't see an unstained side yet. It is in a home I am buying, and since I don't own it yet I can't imagine they'd be pleased with me tearing at it :)

I've never worked with...

Howdy, I am looking to identify what type of wood was used for this trim and molding. I am planning to make a wood paneled wall to match. Any help would be appreciated. I think it's maple, but I...

I've rebuild the sled with no slop at all and aligned with the blade. The blade is a little off from the miter slots (as indicated) but I agree that it shouldn't be causing as much of this motion. If...

Good idea. I will give that a try in the short term

Turns out my blade is .0004 off at 90 degrees and .0012 off at 45. After Christmas I will get to fixing this but need a faster solution for now...

Ah, I didn't know that was a thing.

Unfortunately, it seems I'm not cool enough to view images on this site.

Thanks for the info everyone. Follow up:

-The blade is sharp, though it is a 10" 60th finishing blade (full kerf) so there is a little pushing involved
-It's a good point about checking for...

Howdy, so I am racing to get some boxes made for Christmas gifts. I am trying to cut the 45 degree miters on my table saw using a cross-jig. I clamp the work piece in place and use stop blocks, but I...

Thanks for the info everyone. I ended up finding a great Craigslist deal on a Jet 8" jointer and went that route. I will keep the King info in mind for the future though. Also, it seems like there is...

That's the hardware store I was mentioning :)

Howdy everyone, my local tool shop has started carrying a load of King Canada power tools, in lieu of many other brands. I am shopping for a new jointer and am looking at the KING CANADA KC-203C. My...

Thank you everyone for the advice. The easiest way would be sanding, but I am using this as an opportunity to practice and so will continue to work to flatten the board completely by planing.

I've glued several boards together to make a panel and between two of them is a slight (1/16th") raised edge. I could sand it all down, but I want to get better at using my bench planes. Try as I...

Thanks for the encouragement everyone. Will keep it warm and see what happens

Howdy, last night I routed a pattern in a cherry board. Each groove was approximately 1" wide and 3/16" deep. I poured Envirotex Lite epoxy resin (with a little dye) into the grooves to create an...

Jet models are on sale this weekend for black Friday. I was eyeballing the Jet 708494K. A little above my budget but seemed to have good reviews.

I found a Rigid TS3660 on CL for $400. Seems in pretty good that. What's people's opinions of that saw? I could put it on a mobile base but I have never used a Rigid saw and have no opinion of the...

Thanks Lee, I will check that out.

I had looked at that SawStop Robert. It seems decent but I'm concerned about the cost if I accidentally hit something conductive when cutting (assuming it's not...

I like in North East Ohio but unfortunately Craigslist seems to be a bit sparse on table saws. I do check their often though. Many of these saws are much bigger than the space I have available.

Thanks. The 113 is definitely accurate and suits my needs very well. The problem is the lack of safety features. For the cost of adding a riving knife and blade guards, I'm starting to get into a...

Howdy, I have an older Craftsman 113.29730 contractor-style table saw with extension that I inherited from my grandpa. I have it on a rolling wooden base and so far it has treated me very well. I am...
