Thanks for the reply. I have pretty much settled on the Nova machine. It's only $100 more than the PSI unit but it has a little higher capacity and is slightly lighter. I'll search your posts to...

I'm looking for a lightweight, inexpensive mini or midi to take on the road while RVing this spring. I'll likely turn small stuff just to keep generating sawdust and ward off cobwebs while we're...
Searching through previous posts has yielded nothing that trips my wife's trigger. Looking for something I can cut from 2 colors of card stock and make a unique looking card that doesn't look like a...
Thanks guys. Some great ideas. I thnk the plan is evolving. I'm thinking I have room for a midi lathe (Jet 1221 or the Nova II), a scroll saw and an assortment of accessories. I'm also thinking...
Jim,
Kind of where I was headed. I thought that those two tools would give me a lot of options and could be operated in a campground without disturbing the neighbors. I like to build boxes as well...
Thanks. Mostly a chat about a workbench and forest fires, but I do like the bench and may incorporate it into my plans.
I'm a woodworker and have a fully outfitted home shop. I'd like to do a little wood butchery while traveling but not sure what works well on the road. We have a 5th wheel and pickup and I'm trying...
I lived with the noise for a very short time before the blower got a new enclosure and was moved outdoors. I use smooth ductwork to eliminate standing wave noise.
I'm in a quandary. I have a 14 year old VLS200 VersaLaser that I use strictly for playing. It generates no income but is an awfully fun toy. That is, it was until the laser died. My decision is now...
I'd like to apologize for posting a request to locate a Creeker near me to help me out of a pinch after an equipment failure. I have been informed that my request to the group constituted a "Want Ad"...
Bingo. I even have the original magazine in my archive (pile) of woodworking magazines. I think I'm going to have to break down and buy the back issues CDs of my favorites just so I can find these...
A long time ago, in a website far, far away . . .
I seem to remember plans for a shop built sharpening station that was essentially a motor driven jackshaft that had a grinding wheel and several...
What kind of volume are you talking about? Tens or low hundreds might be feasible but if you're talking thousands then you should think about die cutting. There's equipment available from a couple of...
A quick fix or test would be to move the breaker that the bandsaw is connected to down 1 position in the breaker panel. That will move the load to the other leg and should eliminate the dimming of...
We've begun our annual tradition of," What do you want for Christmas?", "I don't know, what do you want?" I aimed her at my desk with the Lie Nielson, Veritas, Rockler and Woodcraft catalog but...
Jim,
This is how you do it.
"Count me in and Thanx"
see? That's how easy it is.

That was it Lee. I still had to get creative with the search but I found it.
Thanx,
Jim
A few months back (or maybe a year or two) there was a link here to a series of videos showing a young man building a stringed instrument similar to a sitar or bouzouki but it had a segmented,...
Yup. I'm in too.

I'm going to the Woodworking In America Conference this weekend and wondered if any Creekers might be going. Might be a good time to put a face with the posts.

Well said Mr. Gold. Let's not forget who "owns" the forum and to whom its benefits should accrue.

Seems to be a lot of hand wringing over small potatoes. Pricing competition has existed since commerce began and suppliers adjust as they see fit in order to retain market share. Some manufacturers...
Got some guidance from Universal and they got me going. I had some issues between the older firmware in my laser that needed fixing before the software worked correctly.
