Hey guys. Just wanted to let you all know that the box arrived today and I have already released the top. Who's next on the list?

Everything went really well. I used the tablesaw with my...

If I am not mistaken, I believe I just used a simple shellac/dye mixture for that particular demonstration. If you are looking for a more dramatic effect, I would instead recommend a dark brown...

Just for complete clarity, I did learn that technique specifically from David. But the concept makes sense to me. Rounding off the back of the blade "should" help reduce drag and allow you to...

I have been playing with some waterbased dyes lately in an effort to reproduce the "oil" look. I have had some good results using combinations of light brown and amber in a pretty dilute solution. ...

Hey folks. I know there was some interest in my experience with the Earlex Spray Station 5000 and I just finished up my video. Overall, I was very happy with its performance. Hopefully you know...

Hey guys. I have been getting a number of questions lately about the Earlex. Seems everyone is interested. I haven't put the unit completely through its paces yet, but let's just say things are...

Right height.......too pale...... :)

Well then that brings up another very good question: Who's going to be the next Gary Coleman?????

Well, in our little world the market seems good for it, but our viewpoints are skewed. In the grand scheme of things, a woodworking show can't really hold a candle against programming for the...

While I am honored at the mention of my name in this thread, I have a slightly different viewpoint. At that risk of pulling a Time Magazine Person of the Year (2006) move, I really think the next...

First of all, I am a humble doofus. Just ask my wife.

Interesting take Bill. What would you suggest I do then when it comes to discussing my opinion on a tool? Do I have to do a month's worth...

Just an FYI, I had a very lengthy response explaining things in further detail and I have since removed that post. Since it was in direct response to someone else's post, it was mutually agreed that...

Hey Greg. I actually did contact Incra. In fact, I contacted the marketing person that I was dealing with initially. I explained that I was having issues, outlined them specifically, and let him...

Glad you guys are enjoying the shows. I have been on our hosting company for a while now because of the overall sluggishness of the site. But I think their tech service is run by 12 year olds with...

Just wanted to let everyone know that Episode II is uploaded and ready for viewing. I will not be posting regularly when these Episodes are available, so be sure to check the website often or just...

We used this company to get some great business cards. They were fast, professional and affordable. We went with them after reading a comparison article in PCWorld.

Thanks for the help Dan. I havn't placed a link to The Wood Whisperer on my regular business website yet. I am still not sure if/how I want the two entities to interact.

And I also didnt think...

Hey guys. I havent been to this forum in forever. Been quite busy with some big commercial jobs as well as teaching classes. As if I wasn't busy enough I have been spending quite a bit of my time...

I was going to ask the same question Jim. I have an old can of Turtle Wax that I have used many times without problems. I too wonder if its just one of those hyped-up woodworking myths. I dont...

Did someone say Marc???

Oh, wrong Marc. :)

Very nice table, by the way. Is the top a veneer or a solid piece of canary?

As mentioned above, epoxy and maple dust turn a few shades too dark to match the maple properly. Here is what I do. I use Durhams Water Putty. Its a maple colored powder that can help balance out...

welcome bob

I finish as much as is reasonable before glue-up. The important thing is to protect your joints from the finish. This can be done rather easily with blue tape. But sometimes its just not possible...

I use a one-time use foam brush to dip into my container and spread on the surface. After giving it a few seconds to absorb, I wipe off the excess with a clean rag.

Actually I dont know. Fortunately, I am not being charged. :)
