+1. I got the 7 1/4 Makita 18v LXT as a bonus tool HD special. Use it way more than I thought I would. I understand wanting to stick with your existing eco-systems though. I tried that, until I...

I contacted Bosch. They basically confirmed, if the 90 detent is perfect and the 45s are off, you likely have a detent plate issue. There is no adjustment, short of filing, modding, etc. They are...
Ahh. Good point.
Command decision - bought a Tenryu MP-305100AB 12" Carbide Tipped Saw Blade. 100t ATAFR, 1" Arbor, .118 Kerf. $155. Well reviewed, reasonable price point, available, etc. Will come back once...
Another wrinkle. The owners manual states, "To avoid injury, ...The blade’s maximum plate thickness is 0.100"." I've never seen or noticed that disclaimer before. That would seem to negate the use of...
That's a really good point - I should probably be zeroing in a quality blade. I never did rotate the stock thin-kerf Bosch blade to see if the measures stayed the same. Not to start a blade war, but...
I was sidetracked by a whistling noise from my wife's Q7 engine. Now in process of pulling supercharger off and replacing PCV valve. ...And while I'm at it, the thermostat. And water pump. And...
Hello,
I've scoured the forum for feedback, but have not seen this addressed. I purchased a new Bosch GCM12SD miter saw. Trying to calibrate. While I adjusted the 90 degree detent, perfectly zero'd...
Added drawers to my workbench. Dowel construction, full extension self closing slides. Holds my planes. Lined the drawer with a sheet of cardboard, sprayed it with WD40, threw in a few desiccant...
Definitely not overthinking it. It needs to be considered. If you can’t angle the space to the left and right, make sure you space the fixed cabinets far enough apart for the full swing, left to...
Richard, I think a room temperature IQ could interpret my comments with greater accuracy. I simply thought the Grizzly looked nice. And as I stated in my original post, “I have no interest in...
Thank you so much, Aaron - very appreciated insight.
Yes. Clearly this is what I've stated.
I'm gleaning a general theme here. Maybe this goes back to my father's sage advice: Don't buy crap. (Other Kermitism: "Two things you spend money on: a good ladder, and a good pair of shoes." ...RIP...
But the new Grizzly’s look so pretty… ;-)
Thank you, just hit the Donate button.

Finally finished, sans dust collection, my new miter station!
In market for first #5 hand plane. Internetting and YouTubing all the options - Stanley, WoodRiver, Lie-Nielsen, Veritas, Kunz, TayTools, Jorgensen, Quangsheng, and finally, Grizzly. I have no...
Very nice work.
Feel kind of funny stripping and repainting a chunk of metal, but I am. Soaking in vinegar again, will prime and paint next week…
Thank you! Makes total sense.
sometimes I love the internet…
Belated update. So I bought a couple butcher block counter top pieces from Menards, glued them together, trimmed the edges. Kind of took the ideas from several examples. First real woodworking bench...
Hello,
I found the following 28 lbs chunk of steel on the side of the road. Was a rusty red color in before a vinegar bath. I initially thought maybe it was some railroad related part. Have since...
Hello. Seeking plans, tutorials or general considerations for making a mobile woodworking workbench. I work almost exclusively outside my garage door when nice out and put all my mobile tools back...
This crazy... Less than a month ago, the Shop Fox W1888 was $1,570 at Home Depot. Today it is $3,250! More than double. What the what? And the Shop Fox W1837 was $1,075 and is now $1,999. I cannot...
