You could certainly use dyes, etc., to emulate the tone of a specific piece of white oak, but you'd want to choose a species that's going to provide a similar open grain pattern. I say a "specific...
Seal with Anchorseal (you can get it by the gallon on Amazon) and as Izzy recommends, get it sawn as soon as possible so you can stack and sticker in where there is good air flow so it can begin...
"Holy Price Difference, Batman!" Sheesh...you need to find a friend across the border to take deliveries for you!
Yes, in general, that's exactly what you want. There have been a few examples of this posted over the years...I could be wrong, but I believe that Derek Cohen has shown one as he has a very short...
Yea, if my spam protection at the server doesn't catch something...which is rare...my MacOS Mail app gets 99% of the rest straight into the "Junk" folder.
What "base" is used also matters, not just what collarant is added
Yea, I agree. The shipping on my slider in late 2022 from Georgia to Pennsyltucky for about 1000 lbs was $1200 and that was with terminal pickup, not door to door. LTL rates are much higher due to...
Making the "windows" is an approachable task, but the opening mechanisms are a different issue, especially since you can't use a simple hinge and prop setup with them that far up in the air. No way...
Many folks with shorter stroke sliders will make use of a ripping sled on their slider wagon to increase length capacity for critical straight line rips. You still have better control than by using...
Yes, it was released mid-last week. Please note that they are offering the upgrade at the "old upgrade price" until 30 April 2024. After that, it bumps up to the new going-forward upgrade price. For...
These are well known phishing payment scams. DO not respond. DO not click on any link "in" the message. If you are concerned about a "payment" go to the normal website for the entity that supported...
I didn't have any dowel stock appropriate for the need but do have a good quantity of Total Boat resin, so that's what I went with. Since the issue was near the end of the day, letting it cure...
I don't have any issues with labels from my P-Touch sticking to anything, for the most part.
If you use Aspire 11.5x or greater, I can send you the files. PM me your email. You'll just need to change your post processor and tweak for your tooling and material, etc. I'm setting them on a...
Jimmy Diresta's latest video project is a nice exercise in metalwork, including some things he's not done previously. Two metal shop stools.
Sadly, three panels...so one complete cabinet and one half. But the recovery worked just fine and I slapped myself up-side my head to insure I don't make that mistake again. I always try to make a...
David, if you do a ton of narrow component sanding, then yes, the smaller 125mm/5" format is going to be easier to keep things flat. But in general, the current generation 150/5 (or similar from...
Wow...nice haul on that lumber, Rod! I've be coveting those wide boards for sure. :)
I actually spent quite a bit of time in the shop this past week and it was nice. My current project is a shop...
There is also the aspect of actually physically and safely moving that weight through the cut (sled required for safety on something like this) and understanding that a vertical bandsaw like that...
I don't believe that there have been many changes at all to the venerable S45 over the years and it's still made today, AFAIK. It's the one bandsaw that SCM/Minimax makes in-house. PartsPronto is...
I've thought about that a few times, but ultimately decided that this is my hobby "now" so it's not worth worrying about it. My one compromise is that I take one-time/limited time use needs and go...
Tesla eventually "closed" their offer and started requiring their own solar roof or panels, if I'm not mistaken, in order to buy the PowerWall system. Originally, it was able to be used with other...
For metalworking (and some interesting woodworking) Pask Makes is a good channel.
Just one thing...the 9 hole pattern with a center hole (for better dust extraction) that Festool uses isn't really "proprietary" and all the major abrasives suppliers support it if you want to buy...
