Been messing around with making fly rod grips using birch bark instead of cork. The ones I'v done so far have included both birch bark and wood. I decided to try this chunk of wood I had lying...
Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I suspect a wiring issue. We haven't been using the fan recently so I don't think the vibration is roughing up the filaments. However, previous vibration may...

We have a ceiling fan that has a light fixture that uses 4 of the small "teardrop" shaped light bulbs. Recently, 2 of the 4 individual light sockets...
I am new to laser engraving and cutting. Been slowly learning as I go. Things are going pretty well so far. I do know my engraver is capable of a lot more than I understand yet but am enjoying the...

This is NOT a For Sale post. I need some advice. From those of you with some experience in this sort of thing. how do you go about selling used equipment?

A buddy just sent me this picture. We're trying to find out for another person what this device may be. Anyone have a clue?

I need some advice. Here's what I did...
I printed out a pattern on "water-slide" decal paper. Cut the decal to size to wrap around the pen tubes. All good so far. Plugged the ends of the tubes...
I ordered some items from China (not through Amazon, but another outlet) that were sent "China Post". My package arrived MUCH quicker than I anticipated.
A while back I made a mounting plaque for my brother-in-law's European Mount elk rack. Normally the taxidermist supplies the plaque when she does the european mount but my BIL wanted one made from...

Been wanting to try this for a while now and just got around to it. I picked up some scrap aluminum tubing at my local scrap yard. It was about 3/4" OD with a slightly larger than 1/4" ID. Cut a...
Thanks for the input, Jack. You make some very good suggestions. I think I'll give it a go. I do have the slow-setting hardener. I'll mix up small batches with just enough wood flour to give me...
Thanks for the thoughts, John. I have seen the epoxy/black dye you mentioned and it can look really nice. In this case I want to make the "repair" look a bit more natural.
