Dave,

Cincinnati CL currently has two Troy Built tillers listed by a gent in up in Lebanon, Ohio.

I bought one of his rebuilt (1980 vintage as I recall) Troy Built tillers 3-4 years ago......

I purchase my BB plywood from DSI here in Cincinnati:

+1 on JIM LIECHTY... great guy to work with!

Mike

Come together and moving forward are two of my peeves.

I bought a 36 inch roll of brown kraft paper and the dispenser/cutter from MSC years ago.

I mounted the dispenser just above a window near my assembly table... convenient yet out of the way.

Stan,

$75 is a no brainer!

The Epiphone guitars manufactured in and shipping from China experience a fair amount of shipping damage and show up regularly on ebay.

That said, I have purchased a ES339 PRO and a P93 Riviera,...

Same experience here, John!

Now, I always store my quart can of SealCoat in a plastic bag.

FYI...

I use a pair of 1/4" x 12" x 12" carbon plates (from McMaster Carr) in my electrolysis tank.

No cleaning required and the line of sight process works well with the large, square plates....

I'm a track type fan as well.

If you can find a Mutoh, they are a quality, later version (1980s) Japanese drafting machine. I have a Mutoh Model S from ~1982... great machine.

I've always used...

About 10 years ago, I purchased a downdraft table kit from Duskits: (http://www.duskits.com/kits)

I had the MDF top sprayed with truck bed liner to give it some traction.

I'm very happy with...

I'm on my second Stihl trimmer in 30 years...highly recommended!

Mike

I've ordered a recon Bosch 1773AK concrete grinder and a recon point-of-use Bosch water heater from CPO.

Very satisfied with both!

Mike

Dave,

I've had a Stihl 015 since 1981 and it's still going strong!

Mike

My experience with CPO has been great! I bought a Bosch 1773AK concrete grinder (with a $30 rebate) and it looks and works perfectly!

Absolutely no hesitation on my part to do business with CPO...

Wayne, I did the same thing when I assembled my Dust Gorilla!

I agree with your assessment of the HF hydraulic lift cart!

Watch for the $199 sale price and use a 15%~20% off coupon!

Mike

Craig Coney...

I'm really close to doing exactly as you suggest, sawing a 12" wide X 15' section out of my shop floor to run PVC coated 6" spiral pipe.

My question is, how do you drill the...

The issue is using a water based glue, which causes the fingers to swell.

Try using Gorilla Glue or some other non-water based glue.

Mike

Hey Dave!

I bought a pair of their holdfasts, too. Very good quality; much better than the cast/ductile iron ones that I've broken! :D

Highly recommended!

Mike

I bought a Grex 23 gage pinner from Rockler with a coupon or during a sale; don't recall which...very satisfied!

I buy the pins on ebay: secure fastening on EBAY

Mike

Likewise here in Cincinnati...we have picked two red tennis ball size tomatos to date.

The plants are large, with lots of green fruit, but oh so slow to ripen!

Mike

Have you tried Willis Lumber in Washington Court House ?

Mike

I build +/-100 finger jointed pine boxes per year. My take is that the waterbased glues (Titebond) cause the fingers to swell.
This makes assembly of well fitted joints difficult, at best.

I use Heather's method with great success!

I believe my personal best tomato crop was grown on a chicken wire fence stretched between two landscape timber posts.

The plants were spaced about...
