Ok, I know that this is going to sound stupid and many of you are going to think that I'm trolling. I promise that I'm not...

I need to make four wooden forms to produce concrete (actually quick...

I dropped FWW and sold all of my old copies (many many years from #1) several years ago. I can't afford the physical space and the shear effort of looking through hundreds of issues for that one...

I have a question/problem with my tool chest. The chest that I found on Craigslist came with a broken saw till and no sliding trays. I replaced the saw till yesterday and put the first...

The consensus seems to be that it's not a good idea from a support point of view as there will be no bearing on the back side of the blade. I confess that I had completely forgotten that bearing and...

I have a 14 inch Delta bandsaw with riser block and a resaw blade. This bandsaw tilts in one direction only. Is it possible to install the blade with the teeth facing towards the normal outfeed...

I've used Vonage for years with my business. Two lines - one a voice line and the other optimized for fax. I have both lines plugged into a Panasonic KX-TD816 PBX here. Never a problem as long as...

Does varnish soften like that? I thought that only shellac was that easy to rework/fix?

Not to thread-jack this but...

How do you ship saws? I have a twenty seven inch "Cast Steel Warranted Henry Disston" miter saw that came with my Langdon Miter box that needs sharpening. I have...

Only worth it if you are a collector, not a user. The Veritas shooting plane is $339 and the large track is $50. Lie Nielsen has a 51 equivalent for $500 and they plan to come out with a 52 track...

Stephen A Shepherd is the author of "Hide Glue - Historical & Practical Applications". This is an excellent book that I happen to have in my hand right now. He also had a column in Popular...

Well... there's always the "Contact Me" button on his website: adam.cherubini@verizon.net

I sent him an email in February, 2013 asking about 1620's woodworking for my daughter's social studies...

10-32 screws/bolts are used in computer rack and panel systems. I use a lot of them in my business.

Well, I was thinking that too, but on the tail piece I got nice very fine and smooth parings on the two outside edge cuts. These were NOT pounded down with a mallet but rather pared to the line...

Ok, here's a question for you experts. The undercutting method that Lonnie Bird recommends is specifically recommended against by Jim Kingshott. Kingshott agrees that it will look good, but says...

Ok, I haven't given up - here's a few pictures of my second attempt. This attempt was after watching the first half of Lonnie Bird's Dovetail DVD again to refresh my memory. Turns out that I was...

So I've finally started to practice making neander dovetails. Got myself twenty four feet of 1x4 poplar, a coping saw, dozuki, and a couple of Lee Valley marking gauges. My first attempt looks like...

I think that stair treads may be a standard thickness. My house ( about 1923 ) had old pine stair treads with faded stain and a big white patch where a runner went up the stairs. I pulled the...

Take a look at this article and specifically at "Mint". It's free and seems to have a good reputation. You shouldn't just guess; run the numbers and get a real handle on your situation.

I know there's a smiley but... 3200mg per day maximum, 800mg maximum per dose. Use the least amount necessary.

The RSS feed just got updated.

The RSS feed for the Neanderthal forum hasn't been updated since April 2. There certainly are new postings since then.

Take a look at the Unplugged Woodshop. That guy posted a video a couple of days ago:

That kerfing saw that he's using makes the whole thing a...

The Veritas dovetail and crosscut saw pair and an 8 foot 120 led/ft kit with a pair of power supplies. I'm going to get rid of those nasty halogen light pucks under my kitchen cabinets.

I also got mine a couple of years ago - they were custom made and took a few weeks to get here. I'm quite happy with them and probably will be ordering more in the future. I wish Noel made saw...

It's all well and good to say that beginners should sharpen their own saws, but when you're starting out it would be nice to have a good sharp saw to know what to strive for. I'm collecting the...
