    Chinese laser purchase/Shenui/Laserworks tips and tricks thread

    Thread Starter: Rodne Gold

    Considering a lot of us are going or have gone that direction , I thought it a good idea to combine our knowledge pool in one thread. So I have started one. Those of you that have already posted to other threads can perhaps repeat and consolidate the posts here or at least point to other posts on...

    Your Best Nifty Shop Tip?

    Thread Starter: Russell Neyman

    It's the small things that often make the biggest difference. I've found that the crafty veterans seem to know a little trick here or there that make turning better, safer, faster, or easier. So I'm throwing out a challenge: give us your best "nifty" and when this thread is done, it will make a...

    Is CBN simply worth the extra cost?

    Thread Starter: Matt Mackinnon

    Thread Starter: Don Jeansonne

I would like to introduce to everyone a new process me and my son developed to laser engrave true 8bit shades of grey using a 445nm laser diode.

    Buy versus build?

    Thread Starter: Jamie Buxton

    Because we're builders, we can make stuff for our shops. We also have manufacturers which are happy to sell us similar stuff. For instance, you can make your own sawhorses, or you can buy them. You can make a workbench, or you can buy one. You can make your own jigs (for instance a shelf-pin...

    The Baileigh tools I bought with the winnings.

    Thanks to the members that voted for my box in the contest, I was able to get an Edge sander, a mortising machine and some dust collection accessories.
