I have gotten a lot of reminders from Woodworker's Journal to renew my subscription. This despite the fact that I have never actually subscribed to it. I do subscribe to several other woodworking...

What exactly are you doing on your table saw? ;)

I have the same saw and had major issues with the inaccuracy of the fence. Like you, I wouldn't buy this saw knowing what I know now, but I bought the Mule Accusquare fence that is listed above, and...

I used biscuits to attach edging to one of my workbenches, and it seems very solid. Another alternative would be a continuous tounge on the edging and a groove in the countertop. That will give you...

Lowes just opened a store five minutes from here, and it's great. Their business hasn't really picked up yet, so the employees get REALLY bored. They practically chase me down the aisles trying to...

Thanks, everyone. Looks like I'll be getting the 50" fence!

I'm looking to upgrade the fence on my table saw, and am currently leaning towards the Accusquare. Due to space restrictions in my shop, though, I'm not sure if I'll be able to fit the 50" fence, or...

Thanks Jeffrey, you just saved me a heap of money on that Freud dado blade I've been drooling over. Not to mention a heap of time that I will save by not having to nibble away those cuts anymore!

I'm not sure I would take woodworking advice from a guy who makes his shopmade featherboard backwards!

I don't think there would be any added benefit to the 1-slot, 2-biscuit method. The area of contact between the biscuits and the workpiece will be the same as with one biscuit. The added thickness of...

I have used TurboTax since probably 1992. Last year I decided to give TaxCut a try. This year I'm back on TurboTax. I just find it a more friendly and powerful program to use.

I built a pergola this past summer out of PT pine, which was still very wet in some areas when I brought it home. I let it dry as much as possible, then sanded and put on two coats of exterior solid...

I have had the same problem with mine - they bind up really easily when the plate goes a little out of square with the bar. I find that as I'm unscrewing them, I have to continually adjust the plate...

Earlier this week I got a flier in the mail from a company called Price Cutter. They seem to be selling the same branding irons that Rocker sells. If you don't have any luck with Rockler, you may...

Lowes seems to be better at some things, HD at others. HD has a better selection of loose fasteners and better paint (IMHO) whereas Lowes has a better selection of trim, tile, and some other things....

That is HILARIOUS.

(I'd probably still figure out how to accidentally cut off an arm with it, though :rolleyes:)

I am working on a small project right now where a few of the pieces are painted. I'm using spray paint (the canned variety) but I'm having trouble getting a good finish.

I haven't used spray...

I have the Hitachi 159372 (Model # C10FL) and while it's a decent enough saw for some things, it has a couple of major flaws. The fence is a real weak point - getting it square each time you lock...

Nickle test: See if a nickle will stay standing on edge on the saw surface with the machine running. Only solidly built machines with low vibration (including the sawstop cabinet saw) will pass this...

Anyone know if this thing will pass the nickle test? More generally, I'm wondering if this will be a scaled-down version of their cabinet saw, or just another contractor saw with a few extra safety...

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.

Hi all. I've been reading this board for a couple of months now, and have found it very useful and informative. I have been woodworking off and on since I was a kid in 4-H, but am only just now...
