I've always put the back bevel on the hinge side. My rationale was to ensure that the door closed enough when using inset doors. Without a back bevel I have encountered a couple times where the door...

I frosted the three windows in my shop. I bought a can of the aerosol window frost from the Depot. Still lets in lots of light, but you can't see through them.

I don't feel entitled to anything, nothing of the sort was meant by this post. The fact is, I voiced my objections to levying a fee for a service which apparently constitutes little concern and value...

I almost posted something here, then I caught myself and realized that at any moment I might have to pay an arbitrary amount to see it again or even contribute further.

Phew, that was close. I'll...

I recently completed that same table design for my saw. I didn't have the plans, so I kinda built it on the fly.

I made the workbench with a torsion box top since it is rather large and it is...

I noticed no issues with having the dust collector mounted like this. I've seen several other people who have mounted their dust collectors in a similar orientation. I've had the dust collector like...

You mean like this?

When I moved the rails, I just moved the measuring tape as well. I was able to peel off the measuring tape from the rail and then mark two reference points and replace the tape. It's been dead on...

Scott, I did exactly what you're referring to on my saw a few months ago. I have the 30" Biesemeyer fence that I shifted about 10" to the right to give me 40" total. I think it still leaves about 3 -...

Here's what I recently completed for my dust collection setup. Sounds an awful lot like what many of have done or thought about. It has been working great for me. I modified the HF DC to integrate...

Jeremy, I did just that last weekend. I too have the Delta 14" bandsaw, and I needed to be able to move it around somewhat. I cut a piece of 3/4" plywood and bolted it to the bottom. Under that I put...

Thanks for the info Howie. Does this logic apply to waterbased finishes as well?

What are some of the other problems with the cold weather?

Hello,

I just finished up staining a steamer liquour cabinet, and I'm looking to add a top coat to it now. The temperature has dropped down since I began to about 40 - 50 degrees. I originally...

I'm making a folding top for a liquor cabinet that has melamine on one side and oak on the other for a total of 3/4"

I'm thinking about gluing a 1/2" sheet of MDF with melamine on both sides to a...

It's been a while since the granite vs. cast iron conversation. Glad to see it has made its resurgence.

+1 for granite.

I also have the Oshlun dado set. I used it to make several cabinets for my laundry out of melamine. It produced very nice, flat-bottomed dado's with virtually no tear out.

I would definitely...

I have that same planer, and I bought my dust chute online. I got it through Amazon, and I think it was about $30 with free shipping.

Thanks guys for all the helpful info. I'm going to give it a try by routing out a 1/16th where the slide sits. That seems to be the consensus amongst you guys. If that doesn't work I'm gonna check...

Has anyone ever installed side mounted drawer slides on the bottom of a drawer? I would need to install a spacer block under the drawer bottom to make it flush with the drawer frame, but that would...

Yeah, I looked at the undermount slides, but most, if not all, require you to attach them to the sides of the case as well.

I could use a centermount slide, but I think those are all light duty...

I better clarify my situation here a little. The drawer is in the cabinet that the washer/dryer sits on, and is in the middle of several cabinets that I joined together when I installed them. My...

I installed some drawers in my laundry room last night, and on the final drawer, I ran into a problem. When the drawer closes to within about 6 inches, it gets real tight and extremely hard to close....

Did you have an electrician come in a wire this up, or did you do it on your own? I'm pretty comfortable running cable and wiring, but for $500 or so, I've got other things I can spend my time on.

I currently have one 20 amp circuit breaker feeding my detached garage for all my tools. I can barely run two tools at the same time. I'm looking to add more amps to my garage, and I'm trying to find...
