I got one from Eddie Castelin for $45 shipped with 3 cutters:

I have a 1.5HP treadmill motor that I'm planning to put on my lathe one of these days. The electronics with my motor takes a very specific input, so I need to make a custom speed controller for it.

I like on-lathe finishes that are fast to apply and hard to screw up, read into that all you want and you will probably be correct! There are two finishes that I use on almost all of my work.

I've been using one of these bestwoodtools.com MT2 to 1"-8TPI adapters in my lathe for the past year. My lathe is an antique and the headstock has an uncommon thread arrangement.

There does not...

In my mind some is better than none. You can spend all day trying to figure out the ideal DC solution, in the mean time a cheapo harbor freight collector and wynn filter are better than nothing.

A friend asked if I could make a new handle for this pot today. I'm told the pot has been in use for 60+ years making cookies and ginger snaps each year for the town fair.

Based on recommendations on a pen turning forum, I ordered some at this web page: http://woodenwonderstx.com/ZC_WoodenWonders/

I have no idea how it compares to other brands, but the price looked...

Please add me to the list, I'd like to see these! Thanks, Will

When sanding I just wedge the 4" hose from my DC unit between the tool rest and the bed and point it at my work. This setup is surprisingly effective no matter how I am sanding.

I don't claim to be an expert, but from my research it seemed like no two people do basement insulation the same way. If it wasn't a shop I would have used thick foam and no framing. For my shop I...

I used rigid foam up against the foundation, framed over that, then special ordered some "Stone Wool" insulation at the big box store instead of fiberglass.

I moved one of the craftsman zip-code 3/4 cabinet saws down my bulkhead stairs without too much trouble with the help of three people. We tied a rope to it and wrapped the rope around a tree that two...

It looks like your Jet 1642 has a serpentine belt, I've always considered them better than V pulleys or link belts. Also the pulleys probably wouldn't even work with a V-belt.

Nice vice, those have always fascinated me. Even $500 seems like a good deal so $300 is a bargain.

The crack looks like it is in a fairly low stress area. If thats true I would be tempted to just...

Sign me up, thanks Kevin

I put my lathe on stilts about 3 months ago to raise it 6". The stilts are just pine laminated together and attached with 3" lag bolts, my original plan was to add a cross piece between the two sides...

Apparently I got lucky when buying plywood this weekend, I don't buy very much plywood so I was surprised to read all these stories after my good experience.

I got some of the BORG's top end...

This guy would use it

I have an old 1/2HP motor on my bandsaw that also just hums when I start it. It has dual axles so I "kick start" it by rolling the axle with my foot, after one or two kicks it starts right up.

My lathe walked away from the wall a couple weeks ago while truing up an unbalanced blank. I've found its new location very convenient for cleaning and retrieving stuff that falls back there.

I can't turn down a contest. How about 105

Nice upgrade Mike, the red paint and mirror finish on those shelves look great too. Motor bearings aren't that hard to replace if you want to save the motor.

I've been wanting to do something...

I've been wanting to try my hand at a goblet for a long time and was finally presented with a blank about the right size.

This is a one piece goblet and hollowing the cup was a royal pain. Part...

+1 for a 14" bandsaw. I went with a vintage delta, it will be perfect once I get around to purchasing a riser kit.
