I have a Delta 28-206, 14" bandsaw (it's about 5-7 years old). It was a really popular model; I attached a stock photo of it.
Does anyone know what bandsaw blade length this thing takes? Not...
Wow I love this forum. Thanks for all the good suggestions. I don't have a router table, so it would be free hand routing. That means I need a bit with the bearing closest to the shank, correct...
I need to make a dozen "moon shapes" (like a crescent shape), about 12" long, for a project for my daughter's room. My idea was to cut out the rough shape on a bandsaw then shape it exactly the way...
Where would I find designs for shop built ones? Do any of the magazines have good designs? Or are they pretty much custom and designed by each user?
thanks

I have a 400 lb. Grizzly 8" jointer and I need a mobile base for it. What's a good one to buy? Is the Rockler "All Terrain" one a good (although pricey) mobile base? I'm in a garage, and my floor...
I finally pulled the trigger on a real dust collector (Harbor Freight 2hp unit). Now I need to hook it up to my Ridgid TS3650 table saw. The Ridgid table saw has a crude dust chute that says it...
Yeah, I meant the vertical tilt of the blade. I was cutting 90 degree cuts and they were off a good deal. So I need to make the blade perfectly perpendicular (or as close as I can get it) to the...
I've received so much useful information on this forum, I feel compelled to give what little advice I can offer (I'm still quite new to woodworking... mostly because I get so little time to work on...
I’m tuning up my 3-year old Makita SCMS (LS1013) and I’m having a hard time understanding how to adjust the right/left vertical tilt. I’ve read the owners’ manual and the procedure for adjusting the...
Got it! Salem, thanks for the tip... that was the trick. I couldn't get it all the way on because the pins weren't aligned correctly. Once the pins were aligned, it went together.
And yes,...
I "accidentally" removed the blue blade guard on my Makita SCMS (model LS1013) and now I can't get it back on.
I was attempting to tune it up, and I figured I'd take off the blade guard because...
Wow I love this forum. I picked up the March issue from HD and there it was! Thanks for the tip (saved me a bundle). This could be the best deal of all my WW'ing purchases.

Well after all the helpful replies about DC for my small shop, I'm planning to go with the Harbor Freight 2HP DC: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=97869
Does anyone...
I was thinking I could put it in my attic, but the ceiling height is really small up there too. I think it's about 4' in the center (the highest part) and then it really drops off from there as the...
That Delta 50-760 does look really nice. Some suggested mounting this thing on the wall. Is that possible? It looks really tall with both bags. In fact, in some photos, there's a guy standing...
I appreciate the helpful replies Dan. I can't stress how cramped I am for space. I share a small 2-car 19'X19' garage with a SUV, kids stuff, strollers, lawn equipment, and all my woodworking...
When I first saw the Rockler unit with the expandable hose I thought "Aha, that's what I need!" Seems like a really nice design. However, I can't find much info on it, here or anywhere else.
I...
I need a small dust collector and I've narrowed it down to these choices:
1. Rockler Wall Mount Dust Collector ($219): 3/4 HP, 650 CFM

2. Grizzly...
I'm about to build a simple bench and I want to use Southern Yellow Pine (SYP). I got the idea to use SYP from Chris Schwarz's "Workbenches" book. In the book, he recommends buying 2X12 SYP and...
I will eventually be building Schwarz's Roubo bench (it's really appealing to me for both looks and function), but first I'm building Josh Finn's simple "Torsion box" workbench (FWW Issue 202). I...
I live in the western burbs of Chicago. Not sure if Yellow Pine is easy to get around here.
I'll pick through the stack of Yellow Pine at HD and look for the smaller rings. Thanks for the help.
I'm planning to build a workbench from Chris Schwarz's "Workbench book" and he recommends using Southern Yellow Pine (specifically 2X12's). One of the Home Depot's around here has 2X12 in "Yellow...
