Not a bad technique. If it wasnt 8/4 I would try it. That wood doesnt bend even when i stand on it.

I'm scared to do a 10ft planer sled. with 8/4 oak. man that will be heavy and a beast to move. Yall ever made one that big?

Its probably more... I didnt measure, Customer doesn't want to put something on the table and it start rolling. They want flat.

But the question is not what is or isnt alot, question is what is...

I wish I could cut it down. It's a 9 ft table. I need the whole length.

Thanks for invite to McKinney. Quite a drive. If I get too frustrated I might give you a call.

I have a 9.5 foot long board. about 7 inches wide. 8/4 rough oak.

It has a good 1/4" bow on its face.

I need to get that bow out before I plane it, and its just too long for even my 8"...

I have thought about using bondo, since this will be painted. Usually I dont go more than 1/8" with bondo though, and this is about 1/4". And everytime i use bondo it dries in 2 minutes, and with...

Normally I would but if i made a clean cut Its end grain and end grain. If i put in a piece of wood it wouldnt be that great of a glue joint.

thats an expensive system for a small 1 time repair

Repairing a pinball head. Removed the top, and going to reglue, but there is some missing wood. What is the best product to use that I can find locally?

DAP Plastic Wood?
2 part epoxy?
JB Weld...

Steve, if you want to get that 5hp sawstop feel free to bring the 3HP one to Texas and ill buy it off ya.

BTW I have had good experience with grizzly. Lower price doesn't mean lower quality. ...

John, I think having the tools have perfect alignment out the box is a little extreme. I have Jet, Powermatic, Rikon, Grizzly, and a lot of other smaller brands. Never has a machine arrived...

If you have a handplane, you can also help the planer out by doing some of the major area flattening so when you send it through the planer it doesn't rock.

For getting a straight edge use a rip...

Like I was saying Cosmos, best way to deal with wood not straight issues without a jointer is to buy thicker wood. Cut the wood in the rough to the width and length plus a little to the part you...

No problem.

If it's something you will use often then put those 2 boards on a flat table and sandwich them together. Clamp them so they don't move. Drill a 1/4 or 3/8" Hole through both boards on...

I do agree with John that a good long jigsaw blade will do a clean cut, and no tear out if you masking tape both sides. You may get some blade tilting though

Get 2 2x4 and 2 clamps. Make sure the one edge on the each 2x4 is straight. Clamp them onto the slab. Make sure that the edges align with a ruler on each end. Also make sure the boards are 90...

Ahh true...

David. It affects all kits on the 1/4" mark on the jig if yours has the problem.

He likes the older version. The paralign.

If you are buying lumber in the rough then a planer is mandatory first. The thicker the wood you use the more a planer will act like a jointer cause the wood won't flex in the machine. Also...

Having to use a shim because the product won't register on the mark it was designed to is a fail to me. I used Bill's jig which encouraged me to buy this, I was scared they would discontinue the...

Bought the Jessem doweling jig (The newer model) with the 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" inserts. I do restoration work on pinball cabinets and there is always a torn off edge that needs repaired. As in this...

Yea, but the dowels are exactly what they said they are supposed to be. Which makes me wonder if something else is going on

I have the new style Jessem Jig, and I noticed I had issues with the 1/4" Dowels being too tight. I got the dowels from LV, and they are .005 oversized (They say this on package). My Jessem Drill...

I have all my 240 outlets in my panel used up and in my subpanel with outlets in my garage. I'm going to put in a mini split in the garage. What you think is the best way to give it power? Is it...
