Both blades are the WWII general purpose 40 tooth. The new one has the rakers for flat bottom cuts for boxjoints and spline work. I used the original one for about everything except acrylic. See,...
Well, by Chattering and mean as soon as the board gets to the blade, it wants to bounce up and down and seems to fight being cut. This was on 3/4" stock. It cut OK through 3/4 ply and even very thin...
I lurk here often and pick up lots of valuable information so first off, thanks to all of you. Here is my current problem. I have a TS3650 that I have had for several years and had no problems. As of...
Harbor Freight has a halfway decent table with t-tracks and a fence for about $35 bucks too. Not a bad deal for occasional use.
I saw this the other day. Will this help? http://www.eagleamerica.com/product/400-1297/best_sellers
What glue are you using? Weld-on 3 or 4 should work well. When you assemble it you should put a small peice of wire or needle in the joint, apply the glue and let it sit for about 30 seconds to a few...
I built the one from New Yankee and have really gotten a lot of good use out of it. The only modification was the height. I matched it to the table saw to use it as an outfeed table too. It's a very...
When I worked in a metal shop years ago, we used regular highspeed steel drills, sharpened like normal and then did what the olds guys called "break the edge". Just flattened the sharp cutting edge...
Joe is absolutely correct, wood does not do well from a humid shop. I have this problem very very badly. As far as my table tops though I use the magnetic covers I purchased at Woodcraft. With...
First I'll tell you, I am NO motor expert but, my best guess is the speed switch/potentiometer is dirty. I would clean it well, maybe spray some WD40 on it and work the dial back and forth several...
Thank you all. I really appreciate the help. I loaded up the cutlist program so I'll see if I can figure out how to do it now. Thanks again.
I am terrible at figuring a cutting schedule for my projects. Is there a computer program any of you could recommend that I can enter the size of my stock and the desired sizes after cutting that...
I Sprayed some kitchen cabinets with the SW acrylic gloss white. I used the Rockler gun and for a first spray project was very pleased. I didn't thin it as much as suggested. I thinned about 10% and...
I still have a very old one of those. Mine is a New Hermes from the 60's. It is a very good tool and that price is right if you need one. Mine is fairly heavy duty and I can even engrave Stainless...
My neighbor gave me an old stereo with a 50 disk CD player and I had two big ol' Jensen speakers, from the 70's. I have them in my shop and it works great. Total cost... 0! I like the yard sale idea...
I have used that HTS2000 aluminum "welding" product with decent results on my pontoon boat before. Don't belive the hype about the strength and stuff but, small holes are easy and permanent fixes....
Love mine. No complaints at all. Use it for darn near everything and anything I don't do on the router table.
I'll preface this with I have never worked with granite at all but, I have drilled glass which I suspect is similar. When we do holes in glass we use a diamond bit and build a dam around the hole...
Very nice! Thanks for sharing. Those are awesome. Did you have plans or make it up as you went? Either way, great work.
Wow, I just learned a whole bunch. I had no idea that stuff is bad for finished wood. Thanks. Not to really change the subject but along the lines of cleaning furniture/wood stuff. Is Murphys Oil...
Sorry, I should have mentioned that. Yes, I tried a few other blades and got about the same results. It does seem slightly worse on the WWII but still, the others do it too.
I've noticed more vibration of the wood when using it lately. Yesterday I cleaned and waxed the top well, again. I also cleaned the blade well. (Forrest WWII) I reset everything and made sure...
Well, I just did this, Not saying I'm proud of it but hey, it works and no one will know but me. I put the casing where it goes and marked the drywall with a pencil at the outside edge. Then I took...
I love my Forrest Dado King set. I think it was well worth the money.
