Thanks Jim. I have looked through that web site in the past, and gained some good information. I did find the thin kerf to be better when I cut 8/4 hard maple for cutting boards. I also decided...

I was all set to pull the trigger on the used Unisaw, then I got to thinking the main reason I want to upgrade is safety (and accuracy), and the unisaw doesn't have a riving knife or a blade guard....

Thanks Matt. I think you are right, I can make sleds to do most things I would need the chop saw to be accurate for. I just found this
for $750. I have a feeling this is a dumb question, but would...

First off, I am retired, I tell my wife, my woodwork is a buisiness, but honestly am happy if I sell for enough to pay for the wood and electriciy.
I have an old chopsaw, that works just well...

Thanks again for all the replies and suggestions. See if I can answer a few of the questions.
The only tools that touched it were carbide, and clean fresh sandpaper.
While I don't scrub the sink...

After I took it out of the water I set it outside to dry I think it was around 80 degrees or better with not much humidity

Thanks Guys, I guess I will try just spraying and using distilled water and see what happens. It soaked maybe 15 minutes. It doesn't do it every time, but Cherry seems to have the biggest issue. ...

I posted about this once before specifically working with cherry, and didn't get any replies. I have run into it again, and would sure like to know how to avoid it.

This is mainly cherry and...

Thanks John, and Lee. That sounds like it should work. Funny how obvous something seems once you find out how to do it ;) I was stuck thinking of shimming the wood which of course wouldn't work.

Thanks Dimitrios, but that isn't quite what I mean. I mean tilting the table and cutting arcs out of the wood. Like these

I am working on a bowl from a board, (only my second one) and to get the pattern I want in the end I need to cut the circles on a 50º angle. I know the trick of shimming up the board if you are...

hope this is OK. If not delete it and accept my apologies.

I bought some cheap tapered router bits from this place once, and today they sent me a add, with this in it

I have been using...

I should have done this earlier. It dawned on me to do a search for 5415K38 the mcmastercarr number. I found 4 or 5 threads that contained that number, and all of them were satisfied with the...

Praying for Seahawks, but honestly they way they have been up and down this year, I will be a little surprised if they make it past this weekend. If they do, I would say they have as good a chance...

Thanks for the reply Ray. I plan on keeping the runs as short as possible. It sounds like you suspect the interior is less smooth than other dust collection hoses? Or are you just saying flex...

Has anyone bought the Very Flexible Duct Hose from McMasterCarr? I see it is only .015 thick. If you have it is it holding up? It is the cheapest I have found but that doesn't mean anything if it...

Thanks for the replies.
Bill, I was thinking about just doing the same thing. I am redoing my dust collection.... moving the DC and adding a cyclone. I was just reading all the threads about how...

Has anyone converted a 19-38 drum sander to 6" dust collection? Was it worth it? How did you do it, build a whole new lid to it or?

Thanks

Thanks for the replies and suggestions.

I started taking down the ducting so I can move the DC, and I think the bag filter was so clogged that all the dc could do is get the dust up to the tubes....

This might help. I saw a better description a while back but haven't been able to find it ...

I broke down and ordered a Super Dust Deputy XL. I only have a 2HP Shop Fox dust collector, but I asked Oneida which one I should get and they said since I already had 6" ducts I should go with the...

That is essentially what I did, just that I bought cheaper bulbs off ebay (8 for less than the amazon ones) that require the balasts to be removed, and when you use that type of bulb, you have to...

I have a 2 year old lighuania high bay 6 tube light that died. The ballasts are expensive, so I decided when I couldn't find the costco ones, to buy 6 bulbs off Ebay and ordered some tombstones off...

Anyone still able to see these on the costco site? Looks like they are gone to me?

I have been reading all day and still can't make up my mind. On one hand I have always been a do it yourself type of person, so that leads me to the Bill Pentz design, and building it myself. I...
