I guess I fall into the same catagory as Joe Landon. I am a relative newcomer to turning and to this forum and do not post that much. I never felt it necessary or mandatory to "gloat" every time I...

I have looked with no success. Does anyone make a floor standing drill press with an automatic table raising and lowering device. I simply get tired of crank crank cranking all the...
I must agree with everything that has been said already. Over the past few months I have purchased 3 Glaser gouges from GlaserHiTec truly amazed woth the engineering of each gouge. Being a relatively...
I don't know if 50 miles is "close" but there is a great place in Bradenton for blanks.........WoodTurningBlanks4U
This is beating a dead horse but I would only buy Stihl chainsaw (and ONLY from a Stihl dealer). My Farm Boss is pushing 40 years and still runs like new. Upfront cost is well worth the...
The Thursday night game at Mississippi State could be a good indicator whether LSU is the cream of the SEC. The Tigers' defense will be the key to their season. DB Tyrann Mathieu is one of the best...
During the polymerization of cyanoacrylate (exothermic reaction), CA monomer is released as a gas. This monomer causes the burning and odor......not toxic.......just very irritating.
I would say that fuzzy math is the key. Most manufacturers state HP, amps, or watts (HP x amps = watts) BUT they don't reveal the actual efficiency of the motor. Most motors probably are in the 60%...
What they said.......I too had the same issues with CA. Virtually never have a problem now with 5 minute epoxy. I use Crayola Magic Clay to seal the ends..........no muss no fuss and reasonably cheap...
So I go over to Home Depot this morning for some lumber. My friend who works
there said they sold 24 generators in 90 minutes yesterday because of Irene. However the talk of
the store is the...

Being a novice I am trying to learn as much as I can. First of all I want to say that I am not questioning nor criticizing any techniques or tool makers. Everything I've read concerning...
I was removing a tenon from an 18" walnut bowl when my 3520B started walking. As they say........nice CATCH. The bowl flew off the lathe in 3 pretty pieces. No more turning during an earthquake I...
A quick story............in December 2010 I sent a check to purchase my 3520B...........the check was received March 20th..................'nuff said
As stated several times above, CA is considered to be non-toxic. However it is an irritant to membranes and a small % of users experience sensitizaion from continual exposure. The off gassing is...
I guess my perspective is somewhat obtuse. I spent many years with exotic hardwoods making many types of furniture and cabinetry, jewelry boxes, music boxes, toy chests, etc. My enjoyment was always...
Please count me in................
Paulo is the man!!! It's great to see how he strongly supports the SMF.
From the area of USELESS information........in Fox Hunting 12 1/2 couple = 25 hounds soooooooo a couple = 2.:D:D:D:D;);)

I believe it has been mentioned on the Forum before, but a quick dip of the wood into hot water removes virtually all of the wax. Then the water cools and you simply skim off the solid wax. I now use...
Sorry Bill..................the private message police still say you have exceeded your storage. Time to go to a higher authority......
You guys are killing me. Everytime I promise my wife that I'm set with necessary equipment, a new must have tool pops up. Oh well I'll just tell her John Keeton made me do it. I just might need a...
On all the natural edge furniture I make (table tops) I use clear shellac. Works great.
