Thanks for the help, everybody.
That sounds like a good idea, Pat. I'd forgotten that's exactly what I did probably 40 years ago on my first decent bench. Thanks for the reminder.
The time has come to retire my HTC folding outfeed rollers and replace with an outfeed bench with drawers and a usable solid top. With the price of good plywood costing what it does, my remaining...
My original RBI Hawk 220vs scroll saw is probably 20 years old. It has not seen much use in the last 10 years, but that's about to change. Lately I've run across several forum references to the...
What velocity (in FPM) through a 6" round PVC duct is considered a cleansing flow? Thanks
Thanks so much, everyone. You've given me plenty of leads to follow. What a great community.
Can some of you recommend good, but easy to learn, lettering and art
software for use with my sign carving ventures. Thanks
30-some years ago when I installed my 6" S&D dust collection piping, I think I got the best cutting results with a fine blade in a jig saw. But to tell you the truth, I don't really remember for...
I have access to some Corian sink cutouts. Is this material any good for router table tops? Thanks
Looking to buy several new 10" table saw blades. I've been using Freud Industrial blades for some years, but now days the carbide teeth don't seem to be holding up well for me. A friend with a...
Glenn, appearing in the background of one of your RT photos is an impressive looking clamp storage wall. If you don't mind, I'd love to see the whole clamp storage area. Thanks. Oh, and that's a...
Has anybody here ever tried cutting Kaizen Foam with a router? Results? Thanks.
l usually clean my cast iron tool tops with WD-40 and an abrasive pad on a retired random orbit sander. Does a fine job. After wiping off the excess WD-40 I usually let it go at just that. This...
Thanks Cliff and Jim. My issue is not running out of threads (but it's close), rather, the issue is simply my inability to tighten the rubber gripped F-style clamps. It's almost as if the cauls are...
About 10 years ago I bought some 3 ft. Bowclamp cauls from Zig Industries. I didn't need them right away, and then life got in the way of my woodworking. I pulled them out to use a few weeks ago,...
Hi Lewis. As crazy busy as I have been the last 12 months, I haven't had the time to organize the lumber selling. However, in the last couple of days I've decided it's time to move forward. Good...
Greetings Osvaldo, from South-Central Pennsylvania. Happy woodworking!!!

I've owned my Performax Supermax 25" Drum Sander for probably 25 years, and I've always used aluminum oxide wraps on it. But I though I might take the short drive over to Supergrit in Gettysburg...
Wow!!! Quite a response!! Thank you all very much, not only for the pricing suggestions, but also for the selling strategies based on your own experiences. Naturally, I'm interested in the least...
Ten or so years ago I added about 1000 board feet of real nice air-dried 4 qtr. walnut to my lumber stash. I bought it at a farm auction near my home in south-central PA. It had been cut from the...
Thanks for all the good ideas, everyone.
Thanks Paul. Good ideas both.
Good idea. Thanks
I have several of the 611s in the stable, and enjoy using them very much, especially with larger aftermarket sub-bases. However, the vinyl-protected rocker switches are a pain for those of us with...
Thanks for all the responses everyone. They'll give me plenty to consider. And Von, thanks so much for your service to our country, such as it is at the moment.
