I have two antennas. Rabbet ear HD in the living room, and HD roof mount. Rabbit ears into TV, roof mount into receiver to TV. Depending on the weather, I will switch. I have not really figured...
Youtube. Although, you might then be back here posting about too much detail.
For the past year, I've been lusting after a Gramercy bow saw. But it's $150, and the coping saw works just fine. I got one in the mail today. OMG, why have you fine folks not told me about this...

My younger brother was laying on a mattress in the back of a truck on the freeway. Wind picked up the mattress and flipped it out on the road. Luckily, he and the mattress flipped all the way over...
If it sounds anything like a router, I will pass. Can't stand the sound of a router, even mute the TV when someone uses one there. Actually, that is one of the reasons for my neanderthal leanings. ...
Drill, then chop. It's a thing of beauty!
Had to make some 3" mortises 1 1/2" deep today. Chopped the first one, then looked over at the bit and brace hanging on the wall. Never tried that,...
I'm working some QS oak, and am getting tear out jointing an edge. 6-8 inch is great, the an inch of tear out where the grain rises, then all is good again. I suppose species is not important for...
I would rent a few and decide what you want. It's a lot of money just to be disappointed. I rented a class B, and two different size travel trailers before I figured out I like things a bit more...
You need a groove on a board. Easy, peasy, you look at the grain and choose the best direction to plow. Clamp the piece to the bench and plow your groove. But what if you need another groove on...
A couple of weeks ago, I was having some adult beverages. Knowing better than to go into the shop, I hung out on some websites. I had a project coming up that required a ton of mortises. The only...
I used to use a propane heater to get the temp up, then an oil filled electric radiator.
2 years ago, I pulled down all the drywall and insulated, then had 12" blown in the attic above the...
I don't know what an "SW" logo means, but I will take a few more shots. Might not be tonight, as some beer accidentally fell into my mouth and my shop time is done for the day.
On a good note,...
Thank you, worked great.
Yesterday was a rather full day, but I'm not sure yet what was good or bad. I finished the shave horse, went rust hunting, and tried my hand at hammer veneering.
1. finished the shave horse -...
I knocked down a wall between my 2 car garage and a 11' x 11' bedroom to expand my shop. While doing this, I pulled down all the drywall in the garage and insulated behind new drywall, and had 12"...

I'm in north Fort Worth, TX, and am happy to get some assistance. Plus, the only other woodworker I know seems to think all hand tools are completely useless and all furniture should be shaker style...
I've been trying to learn more of using hand tools lately. Since I don't know anyone local who can help, it's all been internet learning, and trial an error. Last night I needed to rip a 9* angle...
Thanks for all the replies. Found time to get back in the shop today and did my remaining cuts on the bandsaw. Not as smooth of a cut, but felt much better through the blade and gave me an excuse...
I was ripping some 12/4 maple tonight and was having a problem with my saw bogging and wood buring. I have a Steel City cabinet saw, 1 3/4 hp motor, the stock riving knife, with a WWII combo blade. ...
I have this #4 Stanley that I bought new a couple of years ago. Never have been able to get it to work. I didn't know if it was me or the tool. I suspected me since I have never used one. Last...
I will start with reading the sticky.
Zahid, I might just take you up on that offer after I do some more reading.
I need some help with learning to use a plane. I have seen what these tools can do in the right hands, and mine are not those. I also understand that it is a skill that no one is born with. ...
