    I went yesterday and paid for Chuck Bender's joinery fundamentals. A lot of it you can learn by reading the Internet, but there were a few tidbits that made it worth while. The technique he uses for...

    I very much like Jory Brigham's work. I first saw him on framework, and very much like the style of his furniture. I did take the TWW guild Hank chair class and build a version of it.

    I would use 3/4" plywood, which is what I used for my kitchen shelves (including pantry). If you use hardwood edge banding it should hold up well.

    For my Dewalt 20V drill and impact driver, I use 1.5 to 2AH batteries as they are lighter. I have plenty of 6AH flexvolt and a 4AH and 5AH that came with other tools. I will sometimes use a 4 or a...

    One of my friends moved into an apartment in the city and had a company install a temporary wall. From what he told me, it was basically held in tension between the floor and ceiling instead of...

    In my shop I have a Sawstop PCS, but I bought a 7485 for working on my rental houses. I ripped a little bit of hardwood flooring with it, plenty of 3/4" smart side or trim, and some 2x softwood...

    I made this one and a matching vanity for our bathroom. As Jim pointed out, the back legs are forward to avoid the baseboard. I did not do any complex joinery, I just put screws into the sides of...

    I use an iVac contactor with the Minimum Runtime firmware for my V3000. I initially had manual blast gates, but now have the iVac automatically triggered ones. I do have a mix of 120V (router...

    I wear my RZ out and about with the caps. I don't notice it being harder to breathe. There is probably a bit more glasses fogging with them, but not too bad.

    Shiraz,

    You have amazing attention to detail and forethought. The panel glue-up jig is very nifty. I very much enjoyed the box and also the anvil stand video.

    I've only built two things with plans from others; both happened to be chairs. Norm's Adirondack chair and Jory Brigham's Hank Chair. For my own furniture, I tend to just wing it after making a few...

    I've got a Fein, but pre Starlock; so I can grab other blades at home depot or wherever in a pinch and am not limited to only Starlock blades. I have no big complaints, but there are times I would...

    I've used a little lipper for similarly trimming solid edge banding, which does make it easier to avoid tipping the router when horizontal.

    I bought the iVac contactor package to go with my V-3000. I replaced the Oneida magnetic switch enclosure with the contactor and the MRT version of the iVac switch so the DC doesn't start/stop too...

    I would certainly make sure you get a router that takes both 1/4" and 1/2" bits. You want both a plunge and a fixed base. I have a couple DW618's and like them. In my table I have the 3hp porter...

    I would use my table as a reference, clamp down the workpieces (or the mating surface I would clamp "up" at a 90* angle to the table). Then use the base of the domino to reference one, using the...

    iVac has a MRT (minimum run-time) switch suitable for larger DCs. Typically combined with their contactor (though you can use anyone's contactor, they have everything in a convenient box). For my...

    Outdoor Table Finish

    I'm going to build an outdoor table out of white oak. My thoughts are that I should use an epoxy like West System 105/207 with a clear varnish on top. At least West seems to leave you on your own...
