If you are worried about the structural properties of the fill, then I'd drill out the knot, and fill it with an offcut from a branch of a matching species of wood (dry the branch to a similar...

Bleed the tank (this should be done at the end of the day anyways) ice in the tank and/or lines is a bad thing. Having the compressor having to start pushing against compressed air is harder for it...

lol... that is awesome, I've never thought about that... and with a nice back bevel, the edges would lightly dig into the drywall, making it a very tight scribe. I'll have to try that one day.

I remember seeing pictures of a jointer like that in my Grampa's woodwork shop... it was from the early 1900's and all the tools were water powered. As I recall most of the tools stayed in use until...

It was likely the fine dust that coats the motor housing, that stuff will hold a spark nicely and combusts very easily



You are probably very lucky that there was no spark or fire in the DC!!! ...
