We have oak cupboards with 2 coats polyurethane. Our current regimen is to clean with Murphy's Oil Soap and apply multiple times English Oil before buffing.

Please tell me if you have a preferred...

Hi Jason

It's amazing to me how many guards/pawls/splitters disappear! Judging by the few used offerings, people must throw them away.

I bought two model 10s this spring; neither had the...

Will you share a picture of this Bill?

Thank you all for the advice.

I was determined to use no hardware except for the wheels.

I'll follow your advice and save that idea for the next project.

Here's a crude drawing of a mobile base concept:

The idea is to not raise the machine very much. The wheels are 4...

Wow! That's some engineering feat! (And fine construction for that matter.)

As a new woodworker, safety is a major concern. I bought two non operating model 10s. Neither had a splitter, pawls or...

It occurs to me that with Cary's method drawers could be put in!



Tubing runs on each side of the legs across the bottom of the table. Unless I'm missing something, other than that and some...

Thanks for your replies and sharing your experiences.

I don't have a brad nailer (as used in the WW video) so have been considering other designs.

I need to build an TS extension table (wing) for a Unifence U50 and mobile base.

Heather Thompson kindly pointed me to torsion boxes.

I have a Sears transmission jack Harvey but hadn't considered using it to move the lathe.

Yes David. One pair of wheels would be on a 4x4 with a handle and eye hook similar to what is shown on...

I intend to make a base similar to this for a Jet Jwl-123 lathe.

I assume one would want to keep room for ones feet at the...

I have a JWL 1236 too Bill and have seen other posts decry is somewhat high lowest speed.

Have you considered this modification?

Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. I went over and looked at the logs . It turns out they have been on the ground almost 2 years. The largest was 3 feet diameter.

I told him I'd pass on...

I just discovered a friend cut down several oak and a walnut tree that are about 4 feet at the base last year. They where cut into 8 to 10' lengths and left laying on the ground. It is believed that...

Thanks for talking me out of that.

I'll stick to oak pallets.

There seems to be a piano offered free on CL in my area pretty much weekly.


Are they worth grabbing to salvage the wood?

Again my thanks to all of you for your guidance.



I wish I was in sunny California. (Unfortunately, I'm in snowy Wisconsin.)




This is now MY hunk of walnut! :-)

Thank you for your replies.

I need your ideas to help me get a clue!!

Here's black walnut? that a friend brought over when I mentioned that I'm trying to learn.

I am new to wood working and have spent the last few weeks reading about table saw use.

I was disappointed when the "Mastering Your Table Saw" DVD recommended against resawing with a TS.

While surfing looking for confirmation that acetone would remove the acrylic residue or a warning that acetone should not be used for that purpose, I ran accross this:

What's the best way to remove acrylic residue? (I'm betting acetone.)

Thanks Chris; I assume you wanted me to see the awesome Super Sled . (The link is to making a tenon jig for the SS.)

BTW, I can't watch youtube because I only have dialup.

I plan on using...

Hi all

I bought a Delta 34-440 TS that came with no miter guage.

I intend to build a double runner cross cut jig.

The plan is to measure the distance from the miter slot to a marked tooth...
