Thanks for the quick and informative replies. I am leaning toward fir too. I have not applied the finish yet and will rethink towards shellac.
I have never used shellac before. Is it...
I am installing a Fir T&G ceiling with a clear poly finish. Now time for trim. I am using 1/4 round. Will pine retain a similar color to fir over time with the clear poly finish, or should I go ahead...
A friend and I are gettaing ready to install a 1x6 Douglas Fir T&G ceiling on his patio. We are going to put the flat side exposed, not the v groove edge exposed.

This thought is way out there. What if you drill a hole near the end, inside of what you want to remove. Then do a pry to split along the grain from the end to the hole, essentially creating a check....
I need to cut some 1" to 2" by 24" strips from 1/4 Corian. I am going to use my PC 4 1/2" trim saw. What blade should I use and are there any tricks to avoid chipping? I have a limited amount of...
The mounting piece was built by Stiller Hitches. I bought the unit from Darling AC. I assembled everything. Darling came back and evacuated and charged the system. He also did he electric hook up. I...

When all your work is consistently of this caliber, words like outstanding and great become the norm. That leaves me speechless unless you don't mind me mimicing everyone else. That is truly...
I sold my 97 Ford Ranger two years ago - 8 years old with 23k miles. Not used much so I got rid of it. Recently traded in my mini-van for a Prius. Figure I'm saving $200 per month in gas do to my...
I haven't been going to HD as often as in the past. I read this thread a few days ago and found it quite interesting as I had noticed a decline in customer support.
A day or two after reading...
I am ready to by an 8" dado set for my Unisaw. I went to Woodcraft yesterday anticipating a Forrest. All they had was a Timberline ($129 IIRC) and Amana ($200). I've never seen the Timberline but...
Nice DP. Congrats. I have my Jet on a Shop Fox Mini as well, but I put the wheels to the sides rather than the front and back. That gave it a wider footprint and so is more stable. It also lets me...
Good Info. Thanks a lot. I passed this link to FIL and discussed it with him. So far, no more contact from 'buyer'. FIL thinks he will never hear from him. He assures me he will do nothing until...
MY Father-in-law is selling a Shop-Smith on Craig's List. He got an email from someone in the UK saying they want it at full price ($850). They have been in email contact four + times and FIL...
I am making a shelf to span between two walls. The length is 77" wide, 12" deep. There will be a gentle curve along the front that will bow out four inches. I'm putting a 3 1/2" apron along the...
I toured a couple mobile home factories a few years ago. The air cushions is how they maneuver the mobile homes down the assembly lines. I was very impressed to see a 16 x 80 unit moving across the...
I just read Mark's thread on his new SawStop and did not want to hijack his gloat, er - thread!! :D
When the stop component kicks in, what happens to all the inertia in the motor? Does the...
Sounds like a lot of academic research when the easiest and quickest way to determine the answer would have been to join your son for lunch one day....
That's the way it works if you rent a car. Leave the barn full and return it full. Try renting one year. Split the cost of the car plus the gas from pickup at full to return at full. No splitting...
Now that the Jet slow speed sharpener has been out for a while, has anyone used it? What did you think? I read the old thread from July and got some good info. The differences between the Jet and...
Rodney - I see you are in Cedar Park. I'm in Round Rock. If you need a good electrician let me know. I had a guy put in six circuits in my garage including 240. He did an outstanding job. All encased...
Thanks guys - 3/4 birch it will be.
