I have owned the rt1000 table the last 4 years. Very sturdy, excellent dc and lots of storage. Got the offset wrench from Sommerfeld's Tools along with their raised panel router set. I don't know...
I have bought from this company a number of times. Dvd's, raised panel router set, tongue and groove set. I do not own this particular jig, but would not hesitate. A small, innovative company that...

David B. That makes sense. I like the idea of attaching the boards. The seller has a winch and trailer so I should be good. No steps involved. If this deal comes off, I will post some pics of the...
My biggest concern now is the weight of this lathe. An old catalog I found on that SBL Workshop website that David W. suggested, shows this lathe with a crated weight at 820 lbs. Any suggestions on...
225675225676225677I checked out the machine this morning. A little disappointed that a 3 jaw chuck was no where to be seen. However, the ways, 4 jaw chuck, steady rest, tailstock seemed fine. Other...
Davids, thanks for the info. I did find it listed in price list 23-a, Sept 5th, 1938. It is described as a 9" underneath belt motor drive lathe-floor legs. Series "R". I should see it on Wednesday....
Hi, I have a chance at a South Bend 109y lathe. So far, limited info and only over the phone. I am trying to gather info before I go look at it. It was decribed to me with the 109y model no., 9"...
Jerome, I build a face frame which is easy to get square. I use Sommerfeld's tounge and groove set, grooving the face frame, tounging the carcass. Glue it up and staple a back on. The cabinet will be...
Ernest, I am absolutely stunned by your craftmanship. Thanks to Richard for suggesting moving this thread to the main forum. A few years ago, projects were posted here. I still do not understand...
Hi guys, Wifes been strongly suggesting getting a decent generator to hook our sump pump, fridge, a radio and a few lights to during a power outage. The unit I got is a 5000 continuous, 42 amps at...
Scott, I have a newer Jet 16-32 (performax). I would consider this machine to be very precise. Of course setup is extremely important. I can run multiple pieces thru and be within a few thousands. I...
Bret, great job on that table. Thanks to you, whatever the cause was is now $800.00 richer. If you get some spare time, could you give an overview of the inlay process. Thanks
Greg, very nice job on that stepstool. I think you'll find the finish of shellac to last. The projects I have done with shellac end up with a hard and long lasting finish.
Brian, Looks interesting. I bookmarked www.duragrit.com for future purchase. Around 20 bucks.
It is amazing what can be learned from posting a thread. I have been wearing NB for years, but the cheap kind. I had no idea the NB991 has over 70% American made content. Of course that shoe is no...
I have been holding off on this post for about a month, trying to come up with a solution for my arthritic knee problem. My shop is in the basement, on a concrete floor. I have one 3X5 mat that I...
Keith, I built a similar entertainment center a few years ago for our home. I used poplar, birch plywood and we stained it. We did a few field trips to Amish country an hour away, saw these built...
