BBQ advice needed
Thread Starter: Rick Potter
I just finished looking at old threads about BBQ's. The weber seemed to be the choice in '05/'06. Is this still the case, or is there a new best choice? I just need a basic, medium size gas BBQ that runs on natural gas. I think I want stainless burners and grates, since I have had problems...

Rusty Jointer still good?

Thinking about the Grizzly G0555 Bandsaw..any comments?

I have the G0555X with riser and love it. I did do some upgrades though that turned a really good bandsaw into a fantastic bandsaw. Even though the

Crooked bandsaw cut

Thanks to all for the helpful suggestions. I'll start with higher tensioning, since that is the easiest to fix -- along with a slower feed rate. If the

Looks similar in shape and function to one I made this last year from some scrap purpleheart and mahogany (I think). This one has a laminated head and

Here in Maryland, recycling trash is strictly forbidden by the authorities. When I was a child, people used to grab usable stuff at the dump, but that
