About 2 and 1/2 years ago, I bought a Fein cordless drill on a closeout from Coastal tool. 14.4 volt Handymaster. I have not used it a lot, just for home use. Last weekend it lost all torque, no...
Any of you had any experience buying tools from Canada and having them shipped thru the postal service? Was it slow or expensive?
Bob, I don't run across cherry very often here locally, but I've never really gone looking for it. If you decide to bring some down, throw a little extra on and I'll take it off your hands when you...
I called today to check on the availability of some white oak from my usual suppliers. One is clean out and the other has retired and moved away!
Anybody know where I can find some White oak,...
Try Jefferies Woodworking ouside of Knoxville. Chapman Hwy, thru Seymore
at the old Camel manufacturing plant.
I need information on air compressors for spraying finishes. If the compressor is rated at 5.5 SCFM @ 90psi, how does that translate at different pressures.
Does that equate to 11 @45 or 2.75 @ 45...
Let me know when you are getting together, and I just might make the trip.
I left Lincoln in '87. Miss the people, don't miss the climate. We get back every once in a while, mainly around...
We are in the process right now of building a new house, and the shop will be in the basement. First, I knew that I would start to skimp on a seperate building as the costs for the house became a...

How do you people store the flammable products you use in wood finishing?
I'm thinking of all the laquer thinner, mineral spirits, alcohol, etc. I am planning a new shop and am trying to think of...
will the black flexible ribbed drain line fit over the 6" sewer and drain by any chance. Seems like that would be a good spring type answer to keeping the pvc from collasping when you bend it.
I checked the lowes I usully go to and they said they had two, it was discontinued and was $255. Called another and they said it was $140.25
I asked them to hold it. Went right out, and it was...
You will go by the knifeworks on your way into pidgeon forge just off the interstate. Just behind it is a tool outlet store. If you are going thru Knoxville, you will also go by the exit for...
Gatlinburg, just about 5 miles through the park, is home to Arrowmont, a fine arts school including woodworking. Some nice things to see.
I saw a respirator the othe day on the web and have been trying to find it again. It was full face and had some type of new style retaining setup. It also had a type of sealing device where you...
I've had the Shop Fox for a few years and used it quite a bit. I'm completely satisfied with it. I put an x/y vise on it and that makes all the difference over the normal system. There are...
Ted, I found 26% anmminia at the local blueprint company. It was used, and it was free. They needed to get rid of it. It has worked fine. When I talked to them on the phone they said they would...
About 3 months ago I corresponded with someone here who had some white oak for sale here at Sawmill Creek. Couldn't get there at that time but told them I would check with them the next time I was...
