My town has asked me to repair 4 6'x4' "Welcome" signs. They are 3 years old, sandblasted and painted, made of cypress, and well maintained. The problem is the sign maker obviously didn't know...

Changing my door making for quality reasons and will need to run shorter pieces through the shaper. Anyone have experience with track vs 7 wheel feeders?

Thanks for the replies. Freeborn cutter is on the way. It's exactly what I need. I called myself looking through the catalog but must have looked right over it before.

I've got a cabinet shop, been in the business for almost 10 years and suddenly I've got 2 potential jobs that want beaded face frames. One has 94 doors and drawer fronts. So I bought (luckily found...

I just saw a glue pot in the new Lee Valley Christmas catalog

Thank you for all of the replies! I'm going to attend the next meeting the Pensacola chapter of the AAW is having. Then I'm sure I'll be back with plenty of questions for you guys.

I guess I'm a beginner again. I've had an old Rockwell lathe with the 3 Easywood tools for several years. Mostly made Roorkee chairs with it. I just got a great deal on a Powermatic with a bowl...

I'd like them if still available

Jacob, I use pocket hole screws on my nailers as well, but in addition to 2 on each end, they are also pocket screwed to the top, bottom, or fixed shelf (whichever is applicable). Plenty of strength...

Thanks for the replies. I'm really liking the idea of the pressure washer blaster. Might try that first

I've got a 10hp Curtis 3 phase compressor so I'm good on air. And I'll be blasting out behind my shop so mess isn't a problem either. The enclosed unit would be perfect for the handles but it would...

Not exactly a woodworking tool, but I figured some folks on here have one they can recommend I get or not get. Looking at a 50-100 lb pressure pot style. I've got several cast iron handles to...

It's not too bad to move. When it's not on the stand, I'll lock everything down and angle the miter all the way. Not that it's fun to move, but it's not that bad. I will say, I got the Bosch stand...

Thanks for all the replies. And Jeff, HUGE thank you. I'll be using 5/8 as well. I don't expect to ever deviate so maybe after the initial setup headache I'll be where I want to be.

Does anyone have any experience with these machines? I am really leaning towards the Dodds. I loved what I saw at IWF. And they are American made. Unfortunately, Cantek wasn't there. Not made in...

I'm boxing up my Kapex right now because of the motor. Brian, I'd love to hear what Omga you settled on. I'm torn between the miter saw and the radial arm saw. Although I do miter cuts at times,...

Anybody got a recommendation of a good source for medium to large box hardware? I've got 105 whiskey boxes to build (double box for 2 bottles, opening between the bottles like a butterfly). I was...

Same with me. A few months back on Instagram, I asked her about a molding profile on a piece in one of her older Lost Art Press blog posts and I got 3 replies. First was quick on what she thought...

My old art teacher has commissioned a desk with a hutch. He wants the the base and hutch a matte white, the top glossy black, the hutch top a glossy bright red, but he's given me artistic freedom. ...

Adirondack chair is the most logical. I bought Schwarz's Stick Chair book a while back and somehow the box got put up without being opened. I'm taking it as a sign that I found it yesterday. ...

I've got about 25bf of teak left over from a job (outdoor kitchen next to a 75' yacht). 1" thick, 4" wide boards, 8-9' long. This stuff was $28 a bf. It was thick enough that I was able to resaw...

I use a 1.8. And I think that's about what I paid for mine a couple of years ago. Just called the paint guy at my distributor (I'd say the company but I don't know if that violates the rules. PM me...

I spray Milesi waterbase finish through one of these Anest Iwata guns with the Pressure Assisted System. It was recommended by my paint supplier (they called it an Air Gunsa 9262) and I couldn't...

A little back ground: I'm a cabinet shop. I spray pre-cat lacquer with an air assisted airless. I use Milesi products. I'm not really set up to spray anything else.

Here's my predicament: I've...

Thanks for the replies! I'll try to hit everyone's posts. Hide glue, no fasteners. I knew cypress was going to be problematic but they wanted to match the other wood in the room and I accounted for...
