Thanks, guys. That's exactly the type of stuff I'm looking for.

It's been a long time since I've posted here or even had any interest in woodworking but I'm trying to renew the hobby. I started working wood 20 some years ago using chisels to chop my mortises and...
It's been a long time since I've posted on SMC (or even read posts for that matter). Anyway, I'm trying to fight my way back into woodworking (long story) and I've got some questions about jointers....
After a couple months working with IMSI I finally got my TurboCAD 14 Deluxe working again. I am, however, having a problem with the Offset tool. This is the message I get when I click "Offset" in the...
I bought a copy of TurboCAD Deluxe 14 a few weeks ago and after using it for two weeks it quit working (unhandled exception error). I've been working with the people at TurboCAD to get it working but...
Yeah, tried that too. Left a voice mail.
I bought a copy of TurboCAD Deluxe 14 for use with my laptop using Windows Vista. I used the application a few times for a couple drawings.
I tried to open the program today and got an "Unhandled...
I want to thank everyone for their replies. They have all been greatly appreciated. I have reread everything a few times in the last couple days and I really can't believe the number of responses...
I've been an off and on visitor with a few posts to Sawmill Creek over the past few years. I've worked wood for most of my life in one way or another--building houses, building cabinets and most...
I'm a Sketchup newbie trying to learn 3d drawing with only 2d experience. One of the problems I'm having right off the bat is getting the Paint Bucket to work. I'm using SU 6.0.515 with Windows...
Thanks guys
Those were the answers I wanted to hear.

I'm installing a new ceiling fan with light in my son's bedroom. I think I've got all the wiring figured out but only in my head. One thing that's confusing me is the red wire coming out of the...
The laser on my PC 3802L no longer works. I carried the saw down the stairs to the basement (didn't hit it on anything) and when I turned it on there was no laser line. The rest of the saw works...
After reading all the responses I've decided to find a good right-angle attachment instead of a dedicated drill. There are too many variables with the drill.
I looked at a Milwaukee attachment at...
After fighting to install drawer slides with a shorty screwdriver in some fairly tight spaces I've decided I need to find a right-angle drill. I know it won't get much use so I don't want to spend a...
First, download the instructions from Rockler's website. Although, there's not a ton of info on them there was enough for me to understand how the extension are meant to work. If you need to remove...

I agree with you. I don't usually like pedestal tables either but in this case it seemed that a legged table would seem a little too chunky in the space. This design seems to keep the space...
The finish is McCloskey's Heirloom Oil Base Varnish. I applied 3 or 4 coats using a good quality brush. I sanded between coats using 600 grit w/d paper. The varnish took quite a long time to dry...
That's exactly what we did for many, many store fixtures while I was working for a commercial cabinet shop during college. It seemed to work well although it was not a whole lot of fun. Good luck.

Here are a couple pics of an oak dining table I built a few months ago. It's 48 inches in diameter--just perfect for a family of four. I made only one 12 inch leaf but the extensions I used can...
Alice,
Unbelievable! Great pics and text. After making the Gunterman spokeshave I think I'll give the Lee Valley kit a shot. Thanks.

Mike,
That's exactly what I'm lookin' for. Very cool. I've been studying the site for a while and I think that's what I'm going to shoot for at least for my first spokeshave. Thanks for the link....
I've been looking for some good articles on making my own spokeshave--I know there are some out there because I've read them before. I just haven't found them again, yet.
I'll be browsing through...
Dave,
Since you've made a few of these saws I'm guessing you've experimented with the blades a bit. I'm wondering what blades you find most useful. I had on old 1/2" 6tpi blade sitting around so I...
Thanks guys.
I tried Garrett Wade earlier but couldn't connect with them. Thanks for the link.
I had a couple old bandsaw blades in the shop that I don't like. I tried cutting with a hacksaw...
