To be clear, Jason said it was an absolutely excellent tool but he just doesn't use it enough to justify keeping it in his shop and taking up the cabinet space. But yea, the woodpecker table (which...
If it's not dried, stack and sticker where there is good prevailing air movement with just a cover on top so that precipitation doesn't stand on top of the wood. If it's try, you can store in a more...
"Technically" the faced fiberglass needs to be covered due to fire risk, so I'm glad you intend to do that with the 'rock or T&G. You might consider using Rockwool instead of the fiberglas because it...
No question it was the right choice for you...I hope I didn't sound like I was suggesting otherwise, because I wasn't!
If you're using straight sided tabs, try tapered tabs...smoother operation...
The Festool system (or the Mirka system, for that matter) are designed to work together pretty tightly and yes, they do perform surprisingly well. For Festool, since that's what I know and use, that...
That movement is from the inertia of the gantry and spindle head's mass moving and then stopping. That's where the heavier welded machines come into play since their rapids are a lot mo' rapid than...
The bottom line that I see is that using the appropriate heavy steel post brackets on either poured piers or a stem wall eliminates the largest threat to a post frame building and that's wood in the...
Yes, their spiral offerings are nice and they are great to do business with, too. Since they also do quick connect, you can still use that in conjunction with the spiral for terminations and other...
You should spend some time watching RR Buildings on the 'Tube. Those brackets are not "sheet metal"...they are heavy, welded steel and designed for the specific load and column size you will be using...
While Michael clarified what his process was, there's no issue with doing two coats of Rubio Monocoat, even though the word "Monocoat" indicates it's not necessary. Many folks do two to get a...
Rick, 120mm is just under 5" which is approximately 125mm. :) So yes, a 5" ID hose should slip over the 120mm port or at least be close enough to "encourage" it. But again, using a Fernco rubber...
The nice thing is that you don't have to upgrade Jerome if there's nothing compelling there, but can choose to upgrade for "the same price" whenever should some new feature really catch your eye. (I...
Cutting wet wood on the bandsaw benefits from a band that's designed for wet wood...I recall some specifications around that were on the Suffolk website...the folks who make/sell Timberwolf, but I...
If you are just screwing them into the cabinet materials directly, you can use the elongated holes to provide some level of adjustment for forward/back and up/down. If you are using the 32mm...
For the 120mm port on the Felder, a popular option for adapting is a Fernco rubber sewer adapter; 5" hose can be clamped on one side and the other slips right onto the 120mm port. I use that method...
I doubt that the nice folks at Fernco ever imagined that they would provide so much value to the woodworking world. :)
"Drying Tent". You need air flow, preferably from the prevailing winds, so if your tent isn't just a "top", you're going to have continued moisture issues with that lumber. There's a reason that...
You could certainly use dyes, etc., to emulate the tone of a specific piece of white oak, but you'd want to choose a species that's going to provide a similar open grain pattern. I say a "specific...
Seal with Anchorseal (you can get it by the gallon on Amazon) and as Izzy recommends, get it sawn as soon as possible so you can stack and sticker in where there is good air flow so it can begin...
"Holy Price Difference, Batman!" Sheesh...you need to find a friend across the border to take deliveries for you!
Yes, in general, that's exactly what you want. There have been a few examples of this posted over the years...I could be wrong, but I believe that Derek Cohen has shown one as he has a very short...
Yea, if my spam protection at the server doesn't catch something...which is rare...my MacOS Mail app gets 99% of the rest straight into the "Junk" folder.
What "base" is used also matters, not just what collarant is added
Yea, I agree. The shipping on my slider in late 2022 from Georgia to Pennsyltucky for about 1000 lbs was $1200 and that was with terminal pickup, not door to door. LTL rates are much higher due to...
