That explains why my contribution only covered me for a little over 7 months.

I made some small clipboards for family and coworkers. They were made out of small scraps, about the size of a half sheet of paper. Good way to play a little with inlays and different wood...

They now have 25% off, which makes it $71.23. I just ordered a set for my kitchen project. My wife wants something similar, and I've had a hard time finding the premade beadboard that didn't look...

A couple of years ago, a good friend of mine, that owns a large timbering business, purchased a portable mill to play with, and now lets me use it, as long as I purchase a replacement blade when...

Another opinion, the trim definitly looks like SYP. The floor is a little harder because of the straight grain, but looks like heart pine to me.

My shop has a wooden floor which over time has developed high and low spots. When I roll around the saw, the mobile base would bow with the floor which would force my laminated extension table out...

I agree with Glenn. I've flattened wide boards with hand planes many times. If a wide board is cupped, in most instances if the cup is noticeable with the naked eye, it will require removal of a...

I have a new RT Unisaw with a similar problem. The mounting bracket is too far to the left, and results in the splitter being to the left of the blade. As like you, the splitter pushes the piece...

Started off Saturday with a plan of replacing my old fuse box in my shop with a breaker box. I need a 220 line, and the current box couldn't accommodate what I needed. After opening up the box,...

Saturday, I deliver my radial arm saw I never use to it's new owner. Sunday I clean up the space where the RAS was, and get it the power ready for my new Unisaw being delivered Monday.

I'm new to the forum and the rules, so I won't post a link. But, if you search the old Badger Pond forum articles for a pdf article on planer setup, it has helped many people for many years in...

Thanks for the comments. The geometric bands is an inlay. I took an inlay class a few years ago, and we spent an hour one night gluing up this pattern. By the end of the night, each participant took...

Nice truck, but I think those 2 comments may be in direct conflict with each other.;)

I really like the proportions and the overall lines of the piece. Also, a great choice in wood. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful Job Terry. Your talent really shows. Thanks for sharing.

I was talking to man at a local craft show that made the shaker boxes and sells them. He told me to get a Woodslicer from Highland. He's been making the boxes for 20 years and has tried just about...

I finally found some shop time this weekend. My wife wanted me to make some clipboards for Christmas for our teacher friends. It didn't happen, and I really heard about it. So, I decided to go...

One project I'm currently working on using only scraps are small clipboards. They are made to fit a half size piece of paper (9 x 6) I just rip my scraps into random width strips, arrange them how...

I've used the inlace on a small box project before. The inlace was a gift, and didn't have any projects in planing that I could use it on. My 11 yr old son decided to make a box for Mothers Day...

Beautiful work, and a great post. Your talent shows, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the tip. It gives me an idea to modify the one (pic below) I made several years ago for the router. I have a small shop and needed a way to joint long boards and it was the only solution I...

I had a much longer response, but lost it when I tried to post, so this is the condensed version, sorry.

Besides the cost of the mill, you need to also consider the cost of the rip chain. ...

Very nice score, would love to find a band saw like that one.

I have that exact saw (without the mobile base handles). The original fence is a pain, but if replaced with an aftermarket fence,...

I think your goal of a rustic piece was accomplished, beautiful work.

A beautiful display of your craftsmanship, thanks for sharing.
