Hi Andy,
How much did it cost to replace the board?

Great suggestion John. I never thought of a hand plane, but it makes so much sense. I appreciate the good advice.

I'm making a bandsaw box as a present. I also was surprised how thick the wax was. I guess scraping and sanding sound like the most logical approach. I was hoping that there might be some cleaner...

I just purchased some wood blanks from Rockler for a project. Is there an easy way to remove the wax from the blanks besides scrapping it or sanding it off.

Thanks for your suggestions!

I can't speak for their customer service currently but 6 months ago they bent over backwards to help me out. I just wanted to let others know that they really do care about helping a customer out.

I've been using the 746 for about 9 years and wouldn't replace it for the world. It's the perfect saw for me. I also have the slider and it comes in handy all the time.

I asked at the Dewalt...

I've been using the Accuspray system for about a dozen years. It's fantastic. I used to use the turbine setup, but switched over to a small IR Garage Mate compressor to run it. I've used it to...

Great feedback guys. I am really appreciative. I think I might try to see if Forrest could straighten the blade. Some how I bent the blade so it doesn't run true. It's not that bad so I'll send it...

I need to get a new table saw blade. I've always used the Forrest WW2 thin kerf on a DeWalt 746 Hybrid saw (1 3/4 hp). I'm wondering I should get another thin kerf or buy the regular 1/8th WW2...

Thanks so much Guy for the suggestion. I never thought of sending the blade back to get fixed. I knew they could add damaged tips but didn't know they could true a blade. I'll give Forrest a call...

I've noticed that my Forrest WW2 - (thin kerf) is wobbling a bit. It's about .009 from being flat. You can actually see it wobble as it stops. I checked with another blade and that seemed to be fine,...

Thanks so much. That gives me a range to price it.

I have a new Delta 3/4 HP motor that was originally for one of their jointers that has never been used. I wanted to put it on CL but didn't know what price to put on it. I looked at what Delta...

This is great info guys. I normally use Norton 3X sanding paper and the ROS disks cost about $0.85 each. I go through a lot of sandpaper, and the palm sandpaper costs about 1/4 that price.

I...

I have a PC 5" random orbit sander and a DeWalt quarter sheet palm sander. I've started to use the DeWalt more because of the cost of the H&L sanding disks. I had a salesman tell me that the only...

I've been using the Sommerfeld's cabinet router bits for about 2 years now. It has totally change the way I build cabinets. It is a tongue and groove system.

I saw them demonstrated at a...

This is what makes this forum so great. I had no idea how many great responses I'd get. I kept hearing that little voice in my head that told me to think several times before attempting this. I think...

Is it safe to feed a 9" board, using a 6" jointer if I take off the guard and then spin the board around after the first pass and clean up the 3" side that didn't go through the jointer on the first...

I have the 2 hp Garage Mate compressor and use it for all of my shop needs and with a Accuspray HVLP sprayer, #10 gun. I also have the turbine for the Accuspray but rarely use it anymore. I always...

I've always sort of bucked the trend of putting a vise on the left side (for right handers). Every bench I've ever had I always put the vise on the right side because I use it frequently for cutting...

I had the same question and yesterday I just spoke to the people at Whiteside to see if they resharpen their raised panel bits. I spent a ton of money on it so I was a little scared to try to sharpen...

I tried the Irwin and returned it. If I member correctly, it didn't register that great. For about half the cost I found a similar laser at Rockler, and think it's a better made product. I hope this...

I have a Dewalt Table saw with a sliding table. It came with an Osborne clone miter gauge. While it's not a bad miter gauge, I've never been able to get 100% perfect miters with it. So I recently was...

Even though I thought these clamps were way too expensive when I bought them several years ago, they are the first clamps I reach for almost every time. You'll LOVE them if you get them. I can't tell...

Here's another choice you might want to consider. http://www.toolmarts.com/air_locker_p630.html. I've had one for several years and have had no problems so far.
