Ken has a good suggestion but I would add to that to install some additional filtering if the air is coming back into the shop. Furnace filters are cheap. Make use of them!

Thanks Art. I didn't know that.
If you are considering new equipment, then consider a vendor who provides dual voltage equipment that runs on 120VAC or 240VAC simply by rewiring the motor. My JET bandsaw, planer, shaper, sanders,...
Sorry Allan but you made me laugh with the analogy. You can get 240VAC from two 120VAC if each 120VAC circuit is on a different phase. To prove my point, just open up your circuit breaker panel and...
That is interesting since the resistance of the tool remains the same, the amperage drops in half when the voltage goes from 120VAC to 240VAC therefore the wires size could be smaller with 240VAC. ...
I purchased a 62" Sjoberg workbench with the drawer assembly below five years ago. My observations are that it is well build but too light and too small for serious woodworking. I used it to build...
I am a big New Yankee Workshop fan as I know that many of you are too. I can not tell you how much I have learned about woodworking from Norm Abrams in his television series, the New Yankee...
I went mobile but am hoping to remove them when I get into my new dedicated wood shop. All my stationary power tools are JET as are the bases. (They could be something else re-branded however....)

Thanks Steve. That is the episode although it is in lower resolution (480x320). When a capture the current NYW episode using RipTiger, it saves in 640x480 mode.
Thanks, but I believe that is episode 103 (season 1, episode 3) known as the Drop Leaf Table episode. I am looking for the recently shown season 10, episode 3, the Walnut Table episode.
Did anyone happen to record the New Yankee Workshop Walnut Table episode (season 10, episode 3) that played a couple of weeks ago on the http://www.newyankee.com/ website? My computer was down and I...
I too have done this excellent mod and concur that it is money well spent. In fact, I will go so far to say that if you have a Jet 1100, it is stupid not to do it. Be sure to buy the bracket with...
Well here we are, six years later and I am just now building my dream shop. Life kind of got in the way but I just broke ground last week on the project. If you are interested, you can take a peek...
Congratulations on a great idea. I think all planers should have this gauge installed as a default next to the elevation crank. That being said, what does Wixey recommend? Certainly they have some...
I love reading this old thread.
Here are my creds:
Dropped out of college in my freshman year, much to the disgruntlement of my parents, to satisfy the itch a dynamic campus military recruiter...
I would take this question to one of the electronics forums:

I have been thinking along the same lines for my grandson when he goes off to college in three years however, I was thinking about building an ATA case so it would stand up to rough abuse. Sure, it's...
This isn't a woodworking question but one regarding the workshop.
Is anyone using an evaporative cooler in their workshop? Does the higher humidity level rust your tools? Any other issues?
I'm...
HOLY Shiitake MUSHROOMS! 4,800 square feet??? Dude! You are my hero!
I don't know how I could get anymore space since I am maxed out on zoning restrictions right now other than selling the RV and converting that space. I'll call that option 1 just in case....
I thought of that but didn't know where to put it. What do you think about replacing the sink in the downstairs bathroom with a utility sink like a farm style apron sink? Or maybe in the front of...
You know, I was thinking about that. The two beams that run side to side in the shop are metal I-beams so I wonder if they would support a chain hoist?
Oh yes, Chief Architect. (My mind was in park.) My architect did use it. What do you need to re-render them? The .PLAN file? I do have that. Can you email me at gdis46@gmail.com? That would be...
I just ran into this guy's product last week and am looking for a US distributor. Does anyone know of any?

I really appreciate all your comments on my new shop. I thought a 1,200 square foot shop (four car garage) would have been more than enough room but am hearing from you that it may not be. Now that...
