So it’s been a few years since I’ve been on here, but things are starting to come back to somewhat normal for me. Getting used to my new normal anyway.
But it looks like things have changed slightly. Why can’t I see pictures anymore? Is that a contributor status only? Liked looking at the pictures for ideas. I will have some questions coming up as far as woodworking goes and pics might help. Ordered a new mattress and want to build a frame for it, so I’ve started looking through my magazines for ideas. Love the Greene and Greene, so it will be something in that style. And I’m going to need some tools to do so, some upgrades and some new. Hoping to avoid the planer just yet if I can source some dimensioned lumber in Southern California as I’ll have to rearrange my garage for the planer and dust collector, which I have neither of.
First upgrade will will be my drill press. Never liked my drill press and the earthquakes this summer knocked it over and dinged it up anyways, so good enough of an excuse. Is the nova worth the price? Want something that I can get to turn in a circle with minimal runout, which my current one won’t do better than 25 thousandths. Any other suggestions? Price probably isn’t as big an issue once I get past the sticker shock. I’d rather have plug and play as much as possible with my time constraints. Don’t care for the powermatic.
