    That pic of your bench is motivating for sure. But maybe I am not being clear or more likely misspeaking. The ShopNotes bench plans have the edge of the plywood exposed. This would be like a bench...

    Thanks for all the thoughtful feedback. I have had these reservations myself about an epoxy bench top, hence the request for comment.

    I have made laminated bench legs of plywood in the past....

    The "feel" of an epoxy bench top

    The folks who use an epoxy, marine or otherwise, on their bench tops all speak to how tough it is. In the newly resurrected ShopNotes Vol.24, Issue 139 there is a bench build that laminates plywood...

    These are all very helpful observations and ideas. I think the issue that I wondered about is "trouble" they go in the transition from the round duct to the open slot of the boot. It is a pretty...
  5. Difference between a simple 5” duct versus a transition hood/boot in bottom of miter

    I’m building a miter saw hood that will be ducted at the bottom with a 5” pipe into a 6x5x3 wye with a flexible 3” duct to the blade guard.

    I can run the 5” duct straight into the bottom of the...

    Those are the lines I am thinking on. When I see a Bombe cabinet it reminds me of a strip wood kayak or a cold molded wherry row boat. Once I figure out the measure and dimensions I have confidence...

    I was able to get used copies of the books which look helpful. I have lots of shop, tool, and jig books but few furniture books. Thanks.

    The TMac video has eluded me.

    I am wondering if there is...

    Bombé Commode

    Google Bombé Commode and tell me these are not wild!

    I am less interested in the ornamentals and marquetry. But, I am fascinated by the organic shapes of these Dr. Seuss chests.

    I did find an...

    This was a real treat. The picture of your island caught my eye. Is your green band saw table height the same as your table saw/assembly table?

    And I have a copy of Practical Shop Cabinets as...

    HDPE is a tough flexible Polyethylene that nothing sticks to. I got a 1/4" 4'x8' from a local Piedmont Plastics and if I remember it was about $80. It lays flat and stays in place with edging trim on...

    Cool beans. I need to set up my cyclone and will experiment with a vacuum line. Thanx all for the input.

    The cyclone and dustbin are continuous but a liner for the dustbin inevitably gets sucked up into the cyclone without a holder to keep it in place. Grizzly has this 1.5" vacuum hose that connects the...
  13. Grizzly G0440 dustbin vacuum for liner hold-down, does it work?

    I did an archive search for this and found only one thread reference and no comments on its performance. At the risk of being redundant, does the Cyclone vacuum tube and hose attachment in fact...

    Laminating 2x4's works for me too and I did that on a more permanent shop. But I think I have found a source for decent untreated 4x4's and I want these pieces to break down without too much trouble...

    I am not brave enough for a RAS. They spook me. But yes, the bandsaw is quick. I likely need to get beefier blades and increase the tension so cuts in thick material track better. I will set up a...

    Gentlemen,

    Pure gold. Thank you.

    I have moved and need to rebuild a shop. I have an empty 2 car garage filled with boxes and tools that is a blank canvas for a shop. I was thinking the...
  17. Sears Shaper, time for a new motor, how large?

    I have a 30+ year old Sears Shaper 113.239201 and the 1/2hp motor is on its last lap. It is a 1/2" spindle and has worked alright. Bushing let it accept 3/4" cutting bits, but its a little...

    My first thought was the discipline shop paddle but I see it has already been included. Those aerodynamic holes would leave quite a pattern on your behind. It was most in use for lapses in the...

    Keith,

    What are the rough dimensions of these bins? Is it a shovel to wheelbarrow operation to empty or are there bins that you carry out to empty. I am assuming it has a "roof" or cover but can...

    Other than the issue of air replacement, and noise that may be objectionable, I would encourage some sort of screen to cover the top of your trailer. My guess is you are not in a close in residential...

    If you have a bunch of small blowers why would you not consider using a small cyclone or a Thein style separator between the blower and the filter bag? These little plastic guys work well or you can...

    You have already outdone yourself. I see clearly how you have created a more than sturdy carcass that needs only nominal tacking to the wall. There is no need to locate studs and the wall is...

    Jamie, my bad. I did not realize that there was a support surrounding the bin. I thought the cyclone/blower/motor were just somehow balancing on the bin. There is no shot of the top but I now...

    Maybe we are talking about different size motors. My Baldor 5hp weighs in at over a hundred pounds, the blower is likely another fifteen pounds. I maybe over-engineering but I think this puppy needs...
