Thanks matt, but I'm looking for manufactured table pins like you see here: http://www.leevalley.com/us/Hardware/page.aspx?p=40145&cat=3,43715,43726&ap=1 Metal rod would require a lot of work to...

I suppose another option is to buy the 8mm inserts for the dowelmax (within 3 thousandths of 5/16") and just stick with the readily available 5/16" table pins. Then I also have the option to use...

I've scoured the web and can't find anyone who offers a metal table leaf alignment pin that has a 3/8" o.d. I see wooden 3/8" ones everywhere but only see 5/16" or metric metal ones.

Reason for...

First, make sure the larger motor will fit in the cabinet and/or with your current mounting system hole size. Motor sizes follow established conventions and in the size class you are asking about I...

I see you got a new fuji MM4 out of this project, well played. I have had great customer service from jeff at target finishes so ask him first if you need to scuff sand, you may not need to. If you...

Rick I realize you have solved your problem so this comment would just be for your general information or for people reading the thread in the future.

There are two ways to control blotching in...

Just want to remind everyone that we need to be aware of all the marketing nonsense that comes on a can when you're dealing with this kind of thing. If the manufacturer won't tell you what is in the...

most people will recommend an acrylic finish for the least color change, pick your brand but they will all be a lot less yellowing than oil based

Start keeping exact track of your direct investment (mostly finish but include mask filters, fan filters, finish filters, masking tape etc. in the equation), and exact square footage of finish...

seconding that comment, I have a 1 cfm and it works great for veneer pressing but I can't imagine it doing bent laminations or vacuum chucking, make sure you get enough pump if you want to do those...

Seconding matt's recommendation here. This is probably the right time to just either google a good guide on setting up a jointer or buy one of the books on it and go through the entire process. ...

If you think you might ever have a problem you could always head it off by making them something nice as a gift, explain it as a hobby you love and then their first experience with your woodworking...

nitrile 5-7mm thick, never had a problem with contamination, 5mm rips a little easily though

I have limited storage space for lumber in my shop (2-3 projects ahead is about all I can fit) so I have a good amount of experience with this. I work with primarily northeastern hardwoods, air...

tell them how it can be fun for them, especially when that yields something useful, the skateboard idea someone mentioned is a great idea
other ideas would be making a wood-framed electric car for a...

I have experienced price swings of roughly 20% on a weekly basis, this isn't the supplier necessarily messing with you, just a factor (possibly) of who they have to get it from that week. If you are...

after telling myself I would make shop-made racks for multiple years, I picked up the metal ones from rockler on sale, they are very space efficient and work great

Re-joint them, they bent that way for a reason and clamps don't resolve that reason! If you clamp it out and the glue strength remains greater than the wood movement strength you will be ok but with...

redrill larger, if it is for a customer it has to be done right

Personally completed with the rotex 150 from 100 grit rough sanding to 2000 grit+ wet sanding/rub out of the cured finish.

klingspor, best value

I'm going to divert the conversation and ask who would ever face nail flooring like that? Why was that done?

Was it just near the edges of the floor near the walls or over the whole floor? If...

I have carbide insert knives and have noticed zero difference between exotic woods and domestic woods. Even over years of use I notice no difference, I think you don't need to worry about it too...

Dale,

That is great that you did that, if there wasn't already the quick-release option out there I would upgrade to your model instead of that. Cool that you figured that out so easily.

Just guessing but you probably have a very simple switch malfunction. Unless the machine is under warranty you can easily troubleshoot and fix this yourself if you buy a multimeter and read up on...
