Hey there Creek, I am needing some help.

I am about to do builtin cabinets for one of the rooms in my house. I have built many cabinets before, but this will be my first builtin. There is already...

Thanks to everyone for the thoughts, I really appreciate it. Like I said, I am definitely not getting rid of my table saw; the only reason I would do that is if I was getting a Saw Stop.

Some of...

Let me first say, I'm not getting rid of my table saw.

I have an old 1960s Delta Unisaw that works great. I added a 32" wing to the right so that I could use the table saw for larger panels. I...

Hello everyone. I just wanted to come back and say thanks to y'all for the advice and ideas.

We will definitely be doing classes at the local Rockler to start with, and I'll be watching the sales...

Thanks, Richard. I'll keep all that in mind.

Wow! Thanks!

Hello wood turners,
My daughter has now told me multiple times that she would like to learn wood turning, so I've decided to take her seriously. While I've been doing wood working for about 5 years...

I thought I would come back and let everyone know that I ended up getting a new table saw. Everyone had some good suggestions but I couldn't figure out why I was getting a rolled cut at the end of...

@Robert, Lee, Derek, and John

I am embarrassed to type this, but the truth is I had no idea that lever was a tilt lock. I tilt was always a little firmer to move than I would expect, not so much...

@Rob Luter, for the dog point screws, did you just tap the threads directly into the oak? Do you have a product for the jack screws you have used in the past that you suggest? I'll admit I prefer to...

Wayne,
I have heard of doing that. But also heard of the top being milled so flat that the miter gauge sticks out of the channel. Do you have any experience with having that done?

Eric,
I'm not giving up on the saw just yet.

I know part of the problem is that the fence sucks. I knew it was bad but I didn't realize it was this bad until this process.

I had started...

Got a chance last night to look at the top of the saw. I was definately not doing it right before. I was using a quality straight edge, but it extended all the way to the wings. I started with a...

Robert, the piece rocking somehow did occur to me last night. It would explain the curved edge as well as the burn mark that seems to be happening at about the same point from the end of the cut...

Based on what several of you sent over here is what I have done. Also, several of you asked for pictures of what the cut looks like I have added a couple of those. The first two show the issue with...

Oh, that I didn't think to check. I'll try that this afternoon.

To clarify to those asking, yes I meant .01-.003. Sorry for the typo.

I am having a problem with my table saw that is about to make me lose my mind (up in here, up in here). I am about to finish my first year of woodworking. I have a 90s model craftsman table saw that...

I found out after leaving that is was a super odd place as far as custom art framing was concerned in that it was an art related place run entirely by lawyers and accountants. We didn't get to cut...

@Richard Coers and @Jim Becker

Sorry, your points are well made.

I didn't phrase that well with "only". Many years ago I worked in custom art framing. There was a rough ratio we worked off of...

Ok, I'll admit I thought an error of less than 5mm over 970mm wasn't that much.

The rubou is a 4x6 roubo, and was my first really big project. If it is a reflection of what kind of crafstman I am...

I finally had a chance to come back to this and wanted to come back and say thank you to everyone for the help.

Everyone who said the cabinet carcass was out of square was correct. It was very...

EXACTLY!!!!!

I will definitely be giving a donation. Thanks, Jim.

Wow, y'all are amazing. I have to admit I am overwhelmed, in a good way. I asked this question in a couple other woodworking forums and basically got no reply except for one guy telling me not to...

I am building my first cabinet with drawers. I have a Robuo style workbench with flip up wheels I made in the fall and I am adding a cabinet to the bottom of it with drawers for storage. I assembled...
