I've been trying to buy a track saw (Dewalt) for over a month and everyone is out of stock. Something about Dewalt having production issues since November. Anyone else heard of this?

Yep, its full size, flat and solid. The center panel is floating so I'm not concerned with expansion. It is very very heavy though. As for perspective the bench you see has a 4" thick ash top and is...

After hearing from some very smart gentlemen here I opted to build my interior doors out of Ash. Below is the first of 7 that I need to build, but Im thinking of changing up the design on couple of...

Thanks guys for all the advice. I didn't realize that the moisture content was so high in construction lumber. Unfortunately in my area its difficult to find the small sawmills that have a kiln. So...

So sounds like I should look at going with the glued up boards

Hey guys,
Its been a while since I posted here, but I really need some advice. I'm in the process of finishing up the house and I really want to build my interior doors. I'm wanting to build rustic...

I handed over my latest project to the LOML last night and needless to say she was pleased. She had asked for a coat rack to stand in the entryway of the house. Her description of what she wanted...

I was cleaning up the shop and found thos slab. Can anyone idenify the wood? Its from a beam that was used in a 50 year old sub station. Im guessing some type of red wood.

Thanks

I actually started in the opposite direction from what your talking about Dan. I built my workbench first and now Im trying to figure out a design on my outfeed table. I believe Im going to stick...

Well guys its another post about Bandsaws. Like a lot of the other guys on here lately Im looking at purchasing/upgrading to a larger Bandsaw. Ive pretty well made my decision on the Grizz 17"...

Brian,
That is a really great layout on your outfeed table. Im thinking of building one very simular to it, only Im going to build it on casters so I can move it around in the shop as needed. I...

Yeah Jim it is quite handy having a wife that is getting into turning, she has already told me Im going to have to get a bigger bandsaw if we are going to be doing this kinda work. I love it.

Actually yes they are dowels that you can see on the faces of the drawers. I planned on those drawers holding a bit of weight so I used dowels rather than screws to give me that additional strength....

Its easy to move as long as you have a tractor, or dozer...... Actually I can move it fairly easily on the concrete floor, it takes a bit of mustard to get it to moving, but the floor is slick...

Sean,
Thanks, and your right. I built it heavy enough that I will never have to worry about anything I try to set up there. I decided when I was building it that I wanted one of those old heavy...

Well guys, Ive been a member here for a couple of years, and only posted a few times, but I have gained a lot of ideas and good tips from your posts. Like most of you guys Ive always wanted to build...

I agree with Mike and Mark, the electrician should have known that the wire was too small. In the NEC 310.16 it shows allowable ampacities of conductors, they give diffrent temperature ratings but...

I watched one at the St Louis WoodWorking show and was so impressed that I forked over 2300 dollars for the entire setup. The carvings that it made were fairly impressive, and I thought I could use...

I am just curious how many of you guys out there have bought these machines and had good or bad experiences, and if you would buy it again knowing what you know now.

Hi Guys,
I made it to the Wood working Show in St Louis this weekend and now am the owner of a fully NOT functional Carve Wright Carving machine. We went thru all of the design process down to...

Anyone going to the Wood working show in St Louis this weekend? I was just curious what to expect, and if it would be worth the trip.

Guys,
Im looking for a little advice. Im thinking of purchasing a spindle sander and cant help but look at the Grizzley G0529. What do you guys think? Is it a worth while item to have, or is a...

Good Evening Guys,
I reciently purchased a 8" Shop Fox Jointer, and what a beast it is. Ive checked the beds and they seem to be flat with no twist. But being new to using jointers I have a couple...

Well guys I bit the bullett this afternoon and ordered the Shop Fox Jointer. Im looking forwared to it arriving in a week or so. Also just wanted you guys to know that if your intrested in any of...

I have been doing a lot of research lately (for the last couple of months) on Jointers, and finally narrowed it down to the Shop Fox that I had read quite a bit about on here. I called Bibb Tools a...
