That's a good idea Jim. I will check the "Re-Store" used building supply houses and see what they have before I order new stuff. If nothing else I may get a better perspective on what solutions are...

Wow, you folks nailed it. Information and supplier - exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks

Folks,

I am building an exterior door and jamb, and I want to make sure it seals well. Does anyone have a good source for information and solutions for sealing all around the door?

Thank

That wouldn't help since nothing is threaded. The spindle of the eccentric axle (item#4) is supposed to be a close fit into the skateboard bearing inner diameter. The problem may arise that that...

I loosened the allen screw on top, and then grabbed onto the spindle. (Item 4 in the picture in post #5) then worried it back and forth while pulling until it finally came out. You might need to soak...

What is with the metal container? Is this an inside joke? You have me thinking about a scene in Breaking Bad involving acid, a dead body, and a bathtub on the second floor?


Thanks for all the...

I tuned up my planer (Wow! What a difference). I thought I would go ahead and change the oil like it says to do annually. (Haven't since I bought it new in '99).

Where do you find 50wt Oil? I...

Ok, thanks for all the input foks. Looks like I am not missing anything crucial by using half blinds all around. I was wondering if there was maybe an assembly advantage or something.

I was reading a dovetail jig review when I came across this statement: "When making drawers, I typically use half-blind dovetails to join the sides to the front, and through dovetails to join the...

I had a fun Christmas break building a router table.

I bought the Bench Dog cast iron top and built the table with aluminum extrusion I had from a scrapped commercial tool. My Christmas gift from...

I guess I am just "lucky".

I would be curious to hear if anyone else with this model has seen this. Maybe I did get a "mistake".

All that you need to do is unscrew the hose clamp and shine a flashlight down the hole - it...

I was really excited when I finally got my Excalibur overarm installed and hooked up to my dust collection system. I was let down when I saw dust blowing out all around the hood and figured I must...

Rick, I am using a GE Fanuc 90-30 5-slot. And you,re right about the flexibilty. For example I hooked up my floor sweep with a single click = 3 minutes on, double click = 10 minutes on, and triple...

I integrated a logic controller and Ecogates because I got the parts for next to nothing and knew how to use PLC's. I enjoyed putting it in and enjoy having it, but if I didn't have that knowledge...

I put in a logic controller. You can see it at: http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=69919

That is a probably a little more complex than you want to get, but you can buy an off-delay...

I agree that noramlly the shop vac would make the most sense. But in my case, I have the DC programmed to run for 10 minutes after you shut off a tool. (This keeps the number of On/Off cycle below...

I saw the earlier thread about a dust collector running high amp and hot if you free-wheel it without restriction. What about the other exreme?

I just got the Kreg jig that has a 1.25" dust...

With no real reason to make the switch, I think I will save the $50 and potentially a lot of frustration

Thanks for the feedback all

I have used biscuits when I edge glue up a panel, and to my knowledge I have never had any issue.

However when I look at furniture from the REALLY high end stores I notice that all their large...

It is not a book, but I would recomend Mark Sommerfelds DVD on cabinet building

Good to know folks, thanks for the feedback. I just cut it in and it is a fairly tight fit, sounds like I will be just fine.

I just got a new Woodpecker Unilift. There are no provisions to hold it down tight to the router table. (Like screws or under mount clamps). Is the mass of the lift and router enough to keep it in...

It is usually symmetrical and solves the problem once

Well I gotta admit, it is a much better system than my previous dust collection system. (My nose hairs.)
