Daniel, Looks your grand kids appreciate quality woodworking machines.
I get low cost running shoes that feel good in the store. I cut my own insoles from 1/4" thick crock like foam( I have lots of scrapes of this eva foam). I buy one size bigger than normal or bring...
I have both and I"ll reach for the 1/2" first. They work as good as 3/4" or the heavy Jorgensen "I" beam clamps for most of the work I do.
I like the lighter weight.
Many of the tips In FW and other mags are puzzling to me. Everyone works with and views there tools differently,but most tips have me thinking "my way is better".
Once and a while there is an...
I would be willing to rent mine and the double barrel. I think she would be very good at this. If she sees this post ,I may find out.
Leave a radio or TV on loud with a 24 hour station. A thief may knock but would think " is someone asleep in there and not hearing the knock".
Yes Robert,I made a big sled like the photo shows at the start of your thread. A strip of plywood with a wood bar in the miter slot.
Now that is funny Jim !
I've been using 250 watt heat lamp bulbs for heat and light in my shop. They are cheap and last longer than plain 250 watt incandescent bulbs.
I can get my gluing area to 65 degrees F in 1/2 hour...

I sliced up some small logs on a 14" bandsaw with a riser block. I used standing dead trees so they were dry. The largest log was 10" diameter by 8'.
I used the wood to build a live edge stairway...
Sounds like you are getting close to an answer Scott.
I had a 3HP model 66 I bought new in 1972. I ripped lots of thick hardwood in my commercial shop. I replaced 3 HP Baldor motors more than...
I built a sled like the one on the cover of Finewoodworking #199 many years ago. I thinks it's a better design.
I love the contrast of sapwood on walnut, but I do cut off some if it's super soft.
If your sapwood is hard enough to wear well I'd say:
Only a sap would cut of that sapwood!
How do you get it free? The website form asks for $21.95 a year.
Dirk,
How thick is your stock? What do your customers use it for? How much is a LOT of stock?
I was given a complete set of FWW stating with #1 two years ago. What a treasure. I was an original subscriber back in 1975 and read them all cover to cover,but tossed them after a few years. Now I'm...
I'm not a radical environmentalist, BUT --where does the plastic/composite deck go when your done with it?
Real wood goes back into the Earth nicely.
The prices I get from mto on 12v are about $70 to rebuild 2 batteries with shipping.

I got this off the Steel City site:
Steel City Tool Work's standard five-year warranty and special 10 year warranty on granite components.
For Steel City's full line of woodworking machinery and...
Lance, Does it stop as soon as you let off the trigger like PC claims? That would be a great feature.
I bought an old building for my shop and showroom that had apartments upstairs. I built custom furniture for the apartments and a showroom when I had no paid work in the shop.
You pay no social...
Very smart of you to be concerned about your risk/liability and potential lawsuites. The LLC may be cheaper than commercial liability insurance, but talk to a lawyer. I think you are wise to claim...

Anyone tried one yet? Looks like a great design. The motor is brushless so they claim it will last longer.
The 4lbs 10oz model is cute, but I prefer the heavier cast iron versions!
