My bad, Larry. I assumed you had built that cabinet and had taken those pictures to show us your work. Now I understand.

Hi Larry! I like the look of this cabinet, but the picture file size is so small I can't see much detail. Any chance you can upload a larger version of this picture? Is it freestanding/rolling or...

Mike,
I'll give you a very hearty YOU SUCK. I mean, it's just a stand, but I want to keep your spirits up so you'll keep searching for, and posting, your finds. You have been inspirational in my own...

Nice post! I know I was NOT a contributor to your knowledge base, but I feel the same way about this forum. Invaluable. Thanks everyone!

I'll be watching this thread closely as I consider the new A3 31, myself. Please post any and all impressions of the new design! :)

I'm confused about how you lost 1-1/2". Are you saying the throat depth decreased because of some kind of added obstruction from the riser block or blade guard? Do you have a picture? Regarding the...

I've noticed that I get a better and quicker response from sellers when I make my email to them look as legit as possible, to make them feel comfortable that I'm not a scammer or shotgun low-baller. ...

Thanks Dan. I should visit the turner's forum more often!

Now that I look more closely, I can see those aren't really .50 cal. If there were more dust in the shop I'd have a better sense of scale....

I just watched that whole video, Andrew. Incredible and very inspirational. I hope you find that kind of Zen in China. :p

Coincidentally, the mill in my shop is for sale in the classifieds section...

Wow, tabula rasa, eh? Did you just win the lottery or something?

This ought to get you started:

(looks like China is your best bet :))

When/if I ever get to a point where I'm ready to show the world my woodshop, I will clean it up before I take pictures, too. It's funny how we always tease the OP about how clean their shop is. But,...

Alchemy is real! Nice job, Julian. It's beautiful. Looks like it was found in an Egyptian tomb!

My first thought is that the pulleys have been out of alignment with each other the whole time, causing uneven wear that finally resulted in a breakage.

No problem at all. I think that question would have been a hard one to search for if you hadn't already seen it before. I didn't mean you shouldn't have asked, just that it was easier to answer with...

Third time I've seen this same question on SMC. See the linked thread (it's funny you both called it a "mystery part"). BTW, congrats on what I assume is a brand new J/P!

Well, I bought a cheap (but highly effective) gear puller from HF Sunday morning and was very happy with how easily the wheel came off. When it's time to put it back on again, is it a simple matter...

Ah ha! Good, another opportunity to buy a special tool! And there is definitely not another set screw in the hole. I can see all the way in to the key. Well, thanks so much, Ken. I'll get a gear...

I'm starting the restoration of my Powermatic 141 bandsaw, and I have it almost completely disassembled. But, since I skipped machine shop class in high school, I have no idea how to remove the lower...

Hi Michael,
I detached the legs from the crate by removing the blocking and freeing the legs. Then I attached the casters, while the machine was still on the crate base, by lifting one end with a...

Beautiful workspace, Todd! Nice and bright (and clean, but I'm sure that's just for the photos). A dream come true for you, I'm sure. We love shop tours here, so thanks for taking the time to show...

You guys really turned me around on this decision. At first I was thinking I had to buy it--"too good a deal" and all. I'm used to the standard mix of opinions from which I'd have to glean the best...

I recently bought a used MiniMax FS-41 Elite jointer/planer. Along with the purchase, MiniMax agreed to send new plastic covers that had been shattered while it was being used and shipped as a demo....

I'm not 100% sure of this, Van (and I have no time right now to google it), but I believe the hypnosis pattern was only used on the nosecones of Luftwaffe aircraft during WWII. In my mind, I'm seeing...

I love the idea of some risque nose art on that old saw, and maybe a few fake bullet holes. Humor in the workshop is a good thing!

I want to revel with you, Mike, but I have zero imagination and need close-up high-res photos.
