Holy cow, how have I missed Richard Maguire? I watch youtube videos ALL THE TIME, and I've never come across him.

Thank god it's too cold to work in the shop today, I need to go make some more...

I kind of think the ridges are actually one board marginally higher than the other, but I'll have to look at it closer with a straightedge when I get home.

There is no chance of this many planks...

Haha, had to change my location. We moved East five years ago. Shows how often I post here, eh?

Thanks for the advice. I guess I'll just put some more work into my #4 and use it.

I am just finishing up the glueup of a large walnut table for my wife. It's my first really big project.

I'm a hybrid woodworker, out of necessity, but I love working with edged tools.

The...

Thanks a ton, Walter!

I really appreciate it. Seems like a 5/8" pin would work, eh?

If you can snap a pic from above and give me a reference dimension, I can scale it from there.

Super helpful, thanks!

I got a good deal on an old Powermatic Model 50 Jointer yesterday. Happy birthday, me!

Anyway, it's missing the porkchop guard. Looks like no big deal to make one or two, but I need some help. ...

Any construction plan room can do this. Printing to full size is the same challenge as printing to any set scale, and I get hundreds of sheets printed to scale every week. I'm not satisfied with...

There are no magic buttons. No piece of software can come up with a solution to the problem without more information. Bill Huber shows why, graphically. It's the exact same thing as trying to...

Do you have any issues removing it from a frame? I.e. when you extend it all the way to the edges of the frame, how do you take it out? The corner to corner dimension would be more than the flat to...

Wow, I've had a worksharp for a while, including the leather strop. I've never been fully satisfied, but I don't think I'm using the strop right. I may make that table attachment like the article...

I'm in commercial/industrial construction management. We use self leveling grout to repair floors all the time. You'd need to protect the plywood, however, I'd use something more than sealer. ...

check out Etsy for handmade things. Mostly art/furniture stuff, but you could certainly make boxes and get some cash for them. Etsy charges a listing fee and then takes a cut when the item sells,...

I got the Rigid for Christmas, and I haven't used it for more than a few jobs, but I haven't had the battery issues listed above. I also got a 12v screwgun and the impact driver head for the JobMax....

Yep. Anyone who owns a hammer is a Contractor as long as you're looking on Craigslist.

Around here, there are signs in yards where contractors are working. I'd call them if I needed something...

Will you move in next door? I need to use a jointer.

Who needs a pickup?

This one is awesome.

Sorry for the slight misdirection.

If you google camper shell...

As a complete newb to woodworking, I have to tell you that I hate you.

Here's how your post sounded to me:

Hey everybody, I had a couple hours in the shop today so I went out and made a...

And a-Googleing I go. This sounds like something I must see before lunch.

One of my wife's friends stopped by a couple weekends ago when I was working in the shop. The garage door was open because it was beautiful outside. I had my back to the door using the dado blade...

I admit it, I'm a complete newb to the fine tolerances of furniture work. I'm learning as probably most here did - by making mistakes.

I am building the Tabouret out of Woodworking magazine a...

Anybody know where to find lights like these, but not all yuppiefied and $100/ea? These have to be the absolute cheapest pendant fixtures on the planet. I want three above my bench.

George,

I have a blade from a Stanley 53 that met my concrete shop floor and didn't survive. I think I could make a shave similar to the top one in the first two pictures, but I'm a dummy and...

Pretty sure I bought a house from that guy too. His name is Leroy. Any time I find something weird or bad in my house, I holler, Dammit Leroy. My wife stopped being amused about it a couple of...

Wow, it's amazing how I think about something, and then come here and someone already has a post about my question. This place is cool.

Anyway, my question is a little different. I have a blade...
