That is a sin...allowing a bottle of Chimay on that lovely bench..... not sure what the Belgians were thinking with them trappist beers... A nice Imperial Stout would be better IMO :rolleyes:

Why convert???.... I reckon putting a 220v outlet in will be just as easy, if not easier and probably cheaper than buying a quality new, lower HP motor. 220 is not difficult or complicated if you...

I think it is a safe general practice to take the above precaution with ALL rags with finish on them. Even though there may be some more dangerous than others, it just builds a good "Safe Practice...

I know the Cdn $$ is different, but my 2 local HD's had that jointer on sale for $299.00 brand new this past week! so if you can take a trip below the border, you can get a brand new one instead of...

Chris,

I am all about convenience and for me the WWII (along with the Ridge Carbide) is the perfect tool for that work ethic.

e.g. Today i was working on some various projects and was...

Ridge Carbide TS2000 has the atb-r config you are looking for and I might add it is a fantastic blade. Cuts as nice as my WWII, in some instances maybe even better.

And to think I get to live...

While all the above are wonderful causes , there is just something about Habitat for Humanity that seems to fit so well for what we all love to do. I hope to take part in future projects when...

We just painted 6 rooms in my house... +1 for Benjamin Moore products....especially their Aura line of paints which we used in two of the rooms. IMHO their was no comparison to the coverage quality...

If you have a sportsmans shop near by, the are likely to have some great ear protection. I do not recall the brand off hand, but I use the ones from my shooting days and they work extremely well and...

did you happen to meet the guy on the street and get the stuff off the back of a truck? Wow, I would pay more than $150 just for what is on the table....IMPRESSIVE!

I would rather ( and often will) use the first method simply because I have more faith in raising my bit height accurately than having to readjust my table fence which doesnt have a micro adjust...

The thin plastic liners are what I find the most convenient. They slip right into your old metal tray, use as normal and when done toss the liner. I usually buy them in packs of 50 or 100 and the...

I have the Delta you speak of and absolutely love it. It is solid, accurate and with a good blade and fence system can do pretty much anything you want.

One upgrade I would suggest is a power...

Love it......simple to use and when not in use it stores away in its little bag in a cubby for another day. Split point feature is nice as well, has made many a bit I thought were garbage work...

Not sure if they will fit but I know Freud makes quite an extensive line of blades in all different sizes/widths, etc... maybe try them

I don't disagree at all Larry, rather that is my point about how different areas of the country have been affected quite differently. I cant presume to know about your town, but I certainly know that...

Link belt and machined pulleys can make a world of difference.... of course prefaced by : if they are not working right to begin with. I have to imagine a new belt at the least may be the way to...

Truly interesting topic..

As someone who lost his day job in Dec, but is fortunate enough to be in a good position I am in the beginnings of starting up my own little shop. I have not even...

John,

excellent post and very interesting to read your results. I have been making some decorative candle holders and using a 2 1/8 bit probably about 30 times in the past two days in woods like...

Joe,

I did exactly what you are asking on a few boards I made for x-mas gifts... 2 were face grain and 1 was end grain. I found that using my router worked ok ( I admit I was not using the...
