Went to the Indiana State Fair today, saw the largest lathe to date for me. Woodmizer has an add on to the bed of their sawmill that indexes so you can cut a tree (length of the bed, oh, 10-15 feet)...
Alan, I hope all turns out well. It is nice to hear of compassion by people in a large corporation. I doubt I see her in Indiana, but if I do, I'll notify you! Don't forget to call the shelters so...
Last year my neighbor to the North of me died. He was a second hand farm equipment dealer. Really nice guy, anyway, the lady that just moved into his house is working on a series of grants from...
Okay, to further the information provided in Cliff's post about tomatoes. They turn red or yellow???????? The only way and time to eat a tomatoe is when it is green. Wash, slice, flip in flour,...
I have had a Central Boiler outside wood burner for six or seven years now. All I know, how ever long it has been I have not had a heating bill since then!!!!!!!!! It is the single best investment...
Ear muffs in the shop as I wear a conventional ball cap type hat there. Ear plugs out shooting as I wear a cowboy hat in the out of doors. Both with the planer isn't a bad idea, my DeWalt planer...
Maybe I am paranoid, but if it is the last cut, I shut off the TS and also lower the blade. The only time my TS blade is up and ready to cut is if I am in the middle of making a bunch of preset...
I have a Craftsman VS lathe that was worked on this spring. Yesterday while turning an antler for a pen it made a "popping" noise and the motor runs but neither of the pulleys are turning. Called...
Its all the wants not the needs that cost us the most over time it seems. Heck if you retire, you won't need that mustard, keep what you have and create a list of all mustard owners then visit them...
A carpenter's pencil like already mentioned except I turned the wooden barrels on my lathe and built it myself. Oh, and the pencil sharpener is in the cap! So guess that is two tools!
New house and new shop? Figure the one story gray building must be your shop. For old age living, stairs are a killer. Build to use in your old age, if it must go up due to space of a lot, think...
I have always enjoyed reading your answers and posts about things. You have always sounded like a level headed person that knows where they are going and how they are going to get there. One thing...
From one Jon to another, welcome and what an incredible sign! Fantastic work, the detail is top notch!
I didn't think you sounded political. Seeing something like that makes most of us drool and dream. As you state, today's dealings aren't all above board any longer so many of us have learned to be...
It is a great feeling isn't it!!!??? I bought a Tool Shop full sized lathe and a set of turning chisels (cheapies) and a decent set of carving chisels last weekend for $35. Figured I would make a...
I got Grand Champion with my kaliedoscopes and my pens won Reserve Grand Champion. But,,,,,,,,, someone stole the pens from the glass case somehow during the fair. Hmmmmmm.....
Daughter won Grand...
I think upon seeing the pictures is load the equipment onto a truck or trailer and then bridge across instead of using the stairs. You can utilize the stairs in that the blocking can build from them...
Just spent four days last week in West Lafayette for the Indiana State FFA Convention. Nope, no relation, my grandfather was an orphan and at age 18 a judge allowed him to pick a last name, the...
Dave, do you mind me asking where you live? Notice my name? I have a cousin in Northwest Indiana, is this you?
I voted for the table saw but the smart aleck side of me was thinking, "a sharp knife and someone else holding him upside down!"
Very nice shop tour. Thank you for sharing. Hope the back is healing according to plan.
I use only my DeWalt cordless drills. Tried friends other options, okay, but the DeWalt's are like old friends, just hard to beat.
Thanks for the tour. Very nice equipment, nice use of space. Definitely shows, "where there is a will, there is a way"!! Good job.
One word, "SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
