I would know more of this "vinegar/epson-salt/Dawn mixture" you speak of :D. I have moved varmints along with minimally impactive treatments and would love to deal with the gravel area in a similar...
I have a gravel area with plants. The layer cake goes something like so . . .
- original soil
- Gopher screen (heavy hardware cloth basically
- About 1" of sand
- Double layers of stapled...
Thanks Jim. There are some tasks that we just consider tedious. The tasks involved with the final shaping of joinery, pulls and other design elements I consider the "fun" part.
That is some beautiful material. The value beyond $8 - $10/bf for generic walnut around here would be specific to the material and your value of it. I know that does nothing to help you. Much like...
Hard to go wrong with a No 5 or a low angle jack.
I'll just toss in that the fixed table / movable head is a good thing if the machine is able to keep the movable head stable and aligned. This should go without saying. However, if one looks at a...
Many of us have grown and evolved through the challenges of limited space. I say make the best use of your space that you can and don't hesitate to change if required.
My tools are way more safe than something like an automobile. That being said they are, of course, used with a degree of risk directly proportional to your training, experience, and personality :D. ...
As you have discovered, when you buy your cast iron router wing or table you have set the dimensions and corner radii of your usable plates or lifts. I agree that a lift for a larger motor with...
Thanks Mark. I try to use continuous or book-matched grain on the 'in your face' surfaces. I have a twisted sense of humor and it gives me a kick. I often do the same on drawer pulls if the...
I have an inline muffler on mine between the cyclone exhaust and the hole in the wall where I vent to the outside. The muffler does pretty much diddly but, once I exit I hit a pair of adjustable...
Amen. Couldn't have done it better ;-)
I have some operations that take an extra step due to what I have on hand to perform the task. Maybe cutting the strips 1/16" wide and then making another run with the thinner, lighter board and...
Ad Block Plus user for many years. I am often shocked when I use someone else's PC. I have actually forgotten how much junk you would wade through without one. I do a lot of things to lock things...
Drawer fronts cut to final size and profiled a-la "Maloof Round".

No surface prep yet but this is the general drawer front field look.

Did this with an old Delta 14". No issues.
Moving along. False fronts selected, roughed out, jointed, planed, and ripped to final height.

Small wedges let me center a piece of scrap to verify my height measurement visually....
I have gotten such better results from the Bosch blades that I don't even look at others anymore. When something works I tend to stick with it.
+1 for K&V 100# full extension slides. I avoid hex key or allen screws as much as possible. Maybe I have a deformed gene or something but I find them the most difficult screw recess to deal with. ...
First, "Regular Home Inspection was done, and no major issues noted." in my experience this generally means nothing. Home inspectors are not on the hook for anything that they miss. Around here it...
Gee, wonder what happened last time???
Wonderful news Bill. Congrats. Woodworkers as a rule are not the best folks to be kept idle. Getting back to sawing on something must have been very satisfying.
I agree with Jim that posting the pics to the forum provide a consistency for those coming along later. I do wish you could post 10 or 20 pics at a time like on other forums. I find the awkward...
I don't do it much but I think I do as John does; prime all, paint the show faces.
If you are talking about the WR700 I use one on my 3HP PCS. I previously had the same unit on a hybrid and a contractor. As I upgraded saws I just moved it from machine to machine. I did finally...
