Thank you all for your time and input. I think I will let it sit on Craigslist and see if he will come down in price. I doubt the tools are anything special or he would have mentioned the brand by...

Hi,
Found a Delta LA200 listed on Craigslist, comes with a Nova G3 chuck and some tools. The seller wants $400. I realize we don't know the condition of the lathe or tools. So all responses will be...

Thank you to all for the suggestions and advice. Right now the plan is to make it the same height as the table saw so it can double as an outfeed support and general work table.

Thanks again,

CW--- Thanks for the pics. Definitely want to go permanent, it is on saw horses now and I am tired of moving it around. I wanted more knowledge opinions then mine on proper support to prevent all the...

Hi,
I have an old solid core door that I would like to turn into a work table. You can assume it is solid as it is heavy enough to need 2 people to lift it comfortably and safely.

My question is...

Bob,
Thanks for the suggestion. I threw "portable" into my search string and found a set of plans from Woodsmith. It looks similar to the one pictured on the cover of Shop Notes No. 93. Here is the...

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has built a workstation for their jig similar to this one designed for the Kreg http://www.kregtool.com/images/icons/kreg%20jig%20storage%20unit.pdf.
Looking for...

Sam,
Trying to get a mental picture of how your set up would work. How does the TS work when you have something large to feed through? Do you have to pull it away from the wall? Can you post a pic...

Copy that about lots of outlets. The architect already thought I was crazy asking for the number outlets I did. Little does he he know I am going to add more when the electrician is here. Thanks...

Tom,
No divider wall. I like your idea about infeeding from the car side of the garage.
Thanks

Hi,
We are adding a double car garage on to the house and the boss has agreed that I get the use one of the bay. So I am looking for some advice on layout so that I can have extra outlets (110 and ...

Hi,
So far I have successfully cut through and half-blind dovetails on the jig. The instructions were clear enough and after a couple of tries I had them fitting quite nicely.

On the other...

I like my Rikon but have no other saw to compare it too. When I bought mine I searched the Creek and found my lengthy post about it.

Hi,
I got my hands on an older (blue paint) JET 6" jointer. It needs a few miscellaneous parts. I found a Internet cite that sold the parts I needed but wanted $16 shipping for $ 20 of parts....

Here is a picture as promised. I made mine out of Honduran rosewood. The smaller angle is 43 and the bigger one is 125. The whole is 7 1/8 inches from the bottom and 1 3/8 in diameter.

I Googled as well and came up with lots of hits mostly commercial links trying to sell them. To be frank I was hoping someone else had already digested the information and could give a a condensed...

Hi,
Flipping back through my old issues of WOOD I came across a balancing wine holder in the November 2005 issues (#166, page 87).

I had some appropriate material available so I made a couple...

Thanks for the replies, I just wanted to make sure. This is my first time rewiring any tools. Those electrons make me nervous.

Hi,
I am switching some of my larger tools to 240. I had a professional electrician install 240 20 amp circuit so I should be safe there.
I went out and bought plugs to put on my tools and...

Yes, it is another guy asking another question about bandsaws. I have read more threads here than I can remember and am in the middle of reading Lonnie Bird's book. I have also read several magazine...
