Update, the switching of wires worked perfectly, but the old girl has many issues and it's going to a new home very soon. Turns out both of them were shimmed to hide the vibration, both motors...

Yessir, the paddle switch is on the list. Lamp cord will be gone soon as well. Someone really goofed on the wiring of this one.

Thanks Rod....I will see if I can see where those are marked and reverse them!

Oh.... I am definitely not using the saw backwards. I took the blade off and will not be turning it back on until I have the solution. I will post the motor plate so you can see which one it has....

I have an old 1969 Craftsman that is wired 110v and is running backwards. The blade was installed backwards as well when he gave it to me. I am electrically challenged to where the capacitor is on...

Thanks guys,

Not sure about the ducks, there seem to be quite a few loose in the yard, but at least some of them are lined up!

If I hadn't already done this once before at the rental I would agree. Sold the last little shop for about 80% of what I paid [it had a lot of improvements that cost virtually nothing] and it wound...

Recently we were lucky to find a true bargain....2 acres in the same area we've lived in since 2005, this one about 6 miles out of Terrell in a little town called Elmo. We'd been renting here since...

I have built about a dozen in SYP. Common for covered porches in Texas. I would say if yours is not covered [most porches are] then I would opt for something other than T&G as others have stated. SYP...

I have made several from cedar 2x6s...I use Tightbond 3 and when I rout them, I paint the letters and numbers then marine poly the entire thing with about 7 coats, Lasts about 4-5 years before...

About a week ago a friend called me and told me I could have his old table saw. I had no idea if it even ran, but I got over there as soon as I could and this is how it looks after it got cleaned...

A few years back, I got a job building a deck at a client's home. He asked if I had ever built cabinets and I said yes, but only custom solid wood and cabinet grade plywood. I got the job building...

Oh...almost forgot. I bought ten blades from Woodland Mills...they are 144" long, have about a 5/16" gullet and about 1 tooth per inch. Aggressive enough to rip right through the Bo'Dark and sail...

Yessir....it's been a very long time, good to hear from all of you! Yes, Bo'Dark [Bois D' Arc Texas spelling] is also called Osage Orange. The trunk is about 20" in diameter. I had promised the trunk...

I like the idea of being able to fill it all in one go or two. West or System Three with Transtint sounds like the plan. Always liked little black dresses...:] Thanks!

I have never tried this other than once with a cheapo 2 part epoxy from the hardware store. I want to fill some gaps in live edge furniture down the road and I remember talking to Steve Jenkins about...

Been more than a few years since I have been on the forum. I stopped building anything but decks and pergolas for a few years and because I wasn't building any furniture or cabinets, I left all the...
