Cleaning out workshop. Here are several vintage chisels that are in various states of rehab, plus 6 socket chisel handles.

Left to right,

1-3/4" Buck Bros, chipped original handle
1-1/2" James...

Thanks for the advice. I pulled my vise off the bench and inspected it closely. In my case, the pressed steel retention plate is nice and flat, and it has indents where the 2 rails fit. What I notice...

Hey John - did you ever solve this problem? I have the exact same issue with mine.
:(
thx.

Thanks, Curt. I will try that. I called Rikon in the first place to help, and they suggested the lower-wheel adjustment. The pdf on their web site was not completely thorough, and I called them out...

Thanks Al - Rikon does have lower wheel adjustment pdf on their web site for my bandsaw. I used it to successfully get myself into trouble ;-) I will need to get it back, as Glenn states, but that's...

I have to agree it's the new blade. I put the original stock blade back on, and yeah, there was a consistent periodic wobble to it in tune with the wheel rotation - I had readjusted the lower wheel...

All,

I have a new Rikon 10-325 14" "deluxe" bandsaw, and am in the process of replacing the stock blade with a Lenox carbide 1/2" 3TPI blade. Blade wobbles front-back now, so trying to fix that....

I bought three of his panel saw kits, and am very pleased with them. Always in stock. He'll sharpen and set it for a nominal fee. Quick turnaround. You just have to shape the handle and go. So,...

Hi Adam,

I am still using my grandfather's MF jack plane with a crack like you describe. I just sanded that area of the sole to make sure there was nothing protruding to scratch the wood surface....

Beautiful. Will the finish have any detrimental effect on a gnawing infant?

Nice review Derek - thanks.
You neglected to list the LN LA jack rabbet as a competitor. Whatddya think?

Well, that was quick - the table saw has left the building, and I'm luxuriating in the new floor space. So many possibilities. Thanks for the push!

Band saw on order. Still enough room for another...

I have the 4" LV version, and my only complaint about it is that the knob tends to get stuck easily, requiring great force to loosen. If the knob was bigger, or had a circumferential ridge, it would...

At least you did no harm. I was working (too) late last night planing down a long thin angled piece to fit a floor-to-ceiling cabinet to the wall, accommodating the curvature along the wall. Didn't...

The point of the journey is not to arrive.

Yes, very little sheet goods. And I'd like to have some capability for resawing. I think the end is near for the TS. It's never really that cluttered, but lately, as my hand tools skills and...

Harbinger of doom...

Lately, it's been more of a table and less of a saw. Perhaps it's time to let it go and reclaim more floor space in my minuscule basement shop.

:rolleyes:

I saw one in action last weekend at the LN workshop with Roy Underhill. It made small work of raising a panel for the door that the class was constructing. Roy was quite smitten with it. I did not...

I have a small shop and 5-foot bench. I built a planing sled that I can drop into my QR front vise, and it gives me an extra foot or so of length. I just support the tail end of the board with a...
