I was extremely leery of doing this (climb rabbeting on plywood) even after watching Mark Sommerfeld's videos. But after trying it out I got over my apprehension pretty quickly. Just crank a...

Very nice!

You might be able to replace the cat with some additional bracing. That would free up the cat for a different use.

Thanks for the comments. As much as I enjoy tinkering and technical projects, it would be nice to focus on the woodworking design rather than on torturing the CNC system into behaving. :-)

Roy, are your bits 1/4" or 1/2", and if the latter, what spindle/system are you using?

For those with CNC systems based on "real" routers, do you find any use for standard router bits in your CNC setup? I'm talking about just your average kind of stuff: roundover bits, slot cutters,...

Hello, Creekers - CNC newb here, and I could really use some advice regarding CNC router systems. This is really just another "which CNC should I buy/build?" thread in disguise, but I think I've done...

Here in Seattle, a 4' x 8' sheet of 3/4" MDO runs about $80.

There is a more complete brochure available here with some additional details. Blum recommends stabilizers for drawers over 24" wide, regardless of depth.

Another great option along these lines is MDO, which is a resin-paper bonded plywood. All the structural advantages of plywood with a surface even flatter than MDF. I haven't used phenolic plywood,...

I'm working on some cabinets for our laundry room, and I ordered the Freud 99-036 adjustable tongue and groove router bit set for making the doors. I just want to make simple frame-and-panel doors...

Ah well, it seemed to good to be true. :-) Thanks for the comments.

I would like to make a simple end-grain cutting board and was thinking of a design something like this, in walnut and hard maple:

Oh pooh pooh, this is more the illusion of peril rather than actual peril. The SawStop is always miraculous to watch, but this guy's finger wasn't in any real danger. He could indeed have done this...

Thanks for writing this up, Leo. I'm interested in this particular comparison since I'm in the process of moving from the Ridgid to the DeWalt. I'm relatively happy with the Ridgid, but I wanted to...

Keep in mind that both Home Depot and Lowe's seem to have a policy of accepting competitors' coupons. I was able to use a 20%-off-one-item coupon from Rockler there recently.
