How about a little side contest? Make a Pencil sharpener...
Thread Starter: David Weaver

Lie Nielsen new waterstones
Thread Starter: Dave Cav

Well, thought I would not ever own any of the Green German candy. So much for that thought. I recently left the restaurant business after 30 yrs to go

Remotoring a Rockwell 28-350 20" Bandsaw

First, if the machine has all its parts and is reasonably priced, run and buy it right now. You won't regret it. These machines were built to last a
