I have an old Delta 50-850 d.c. that's about 15 years old....About 2 years ago I replaced the top bag with a Wynn 35A canister filter, and have never looked back...Best move I ever made on...

To all my fellow vets. Thanks so much for serving so proudly.

I don't have the K3orK4 system, but thinking about getting one. I been using the Mini Kreg, and for one hole at a time, it works really good. Like has been stated, use glue also. You don't need a...

I built Norm's router table about 2 years ago. The d.c. he used pretty well sucked(no pun intended). After a while I got tired of it not working right. I took out the set-up he had, drilled out a 4"...

I have one for you: Several years ago my wife talked me into shaving under my arms!!!!!!!! That's worse than the face any day I'm hear to tell you. When it starts growing back, it will just about...

I guess it doesn't matter what jointer you have, it's gonna throw sawdust on the beds, and not get ionto the d.c. good. I disconnected the hose and let it go to the floor, and sweep it up later. Now...

Mickey: Thanks for the reply. I do have the old model 190, and it never has had good dust extraction. I guess I'll have to live with it. I do have a big broom and scoop!!! lol.

Hi all:
Ok-- here's the deal. I have a Delta 6" Deluxe jointer that I've had since the mid '90s. Ever since I got it, it throws dust and chips on the i.f and o.f tables, and on me. The shute gets...

I 've had a Delta benchtop mortiser for years. I've also got the mortiser for the d.p. The d.p.m. ties up your drill press, is a pain to set up and tear down if/ when you need the d.p. Buy the b.t.m....

Go to Lowes, Depot, or Walmart and buy a sanding block. They are rubber, and you use a 1/3 or 1/4? sheet of sandpaper and lock them in. Or better yet, if you have a shop vac, get a random orbit...

I use WWII's, Freud, and CMT's. All really good blades, but my $$$'s is on the WWII.

Glen;

I use tung oil a lot on my projects, especially shop furniture. I buy my tung oil from woodworkers supply, inc. There are 3 stores, Casper, Wyoming being the main store. I use Behlen's...

Denny, I responded on this thread yesterday about cutting mortises. This morning I've been cutting mortises for a hall table in the legs. These are5 ' mortises, and using oak. My bit and chizzel also...

Denny: First of all let me say do not spray anything on the bits. Whatever you spray(i.e. water, oil, lubricant, etc.) will drip down and soak into the wood, even if you think you cleaned the...

Thanks Randal: Just did that, and it works. GEEEEEES-- too many things to remember on this dang computer. I was born in the wrong era fro this stuff. I need a personal secretary to get all this crap...

If you think you can't build a jig and unsure, here's an easy solution:
Get a piece of 1/4" perferated hardboard--you know the kind that has the holes in it--moreover called"pegboard". Has perfect...

Jason;

Where did you find all of my post? I thought most of them were gone. Some show up--some not. Some would not show at all.

Am I posting in the wrong place, or what? I was just hitting...

Build your own jig for spacing holes-- it's cheaper, and a piece of plywood is less expensive than the jig!!!

I guess I don't get this site at all. I've posted several things on here, and took part in discussions and topics. When I post something, it doesen't show up as posted immediately on the page. What's...

Hello William:

I would for sure use dados in the vertical dividers. I would trust them more than pocket screws for this application. Can't go wrong with them. I think you get a stronger joint...

Looks like I'll be pretty busy this fall and winter. Right now I'm building a hall table and a new taper jig for the legs. I'v also got a new customer that recently moved here from around Chicago...

Dwain, it's no big concern about getting some water in the tank. They all do that. Depends on much you use the compressor as to how often you need to drain it. If you're using it to spray poly or a...

Yep-- just slap a little turpitine on and rinse with some alcohol mixed with salt!!!

Kinda like slapping Tabasco sause on a cats butt!!!!!

It'll feel better when it quits burning!!

Kinda...

Awhile back I gought the blade cleaning kit form Rockler, with the tub, lid, little wire brush, and a qt. of cleaner. The tub has a rizer in the bottom to keep the blade from sucking to the bottom....
