Title says it all.
Anyone have one sitting in the back of a drawer that you'd be willing to part with?
I'm resurrecting two doors which a friend of mine bought at an auction when a bar went out of business many years ago and plan on installing them in my house at the entrance to a hallway. The doors...

Happy post-Thanksgiving. I enjoyed a nice family dinner at my sister Denise's house yesterday. While chatting she was lamenting the sad state of her 40+ year old olive wood cutting board which she...

I'm resurrecting my great Uncle's rusty, frozen monkey wrench. I've removed the rust with electrolysis and wire brushing. Its now unfrozen and functional, but needs a new wooden handle. I can't ID...
I'm using a plunge router to cut mortises. The tendons are being cut on a tablesaw using a tendon jig.
How do you recommend rounding over the corners of the tendons to fit the mortises? ...
I have a belt sander for aggressive wood removal, but it's large and awkward to use aside from on flat boards. I have ROS's for both aggressive wood removal (36 or 40 grit) or for finish sanding. ...
Hi Julian,
I suggest taking the approach recommended by Mel and Dave, but with a caution about Bondo. First find out the source of the water. I suggest taking off the door and removing the lower...
Following up on what Richard wrote, you can joint a 12" board on an 8" jointer, then use a shim board led to plane the rough side of the board on your planer. Once that side is smooth, smooth the...
There's at least two YouTube videos on making deep-reach C clamps out of wood. The one made with plywood looks relatively easy and inexpensive to make. They can provide a surprising amount of...
Mel and Rick, thanks for your input. I found a YouTube video by Paul Sellers that shows how he makes and uses cam cleats. It's pretty detailed and it's in 4 parts, probably about an hour total...
I'm curious about cam cleats. The limited advertising indicates they provide easy operation and decent reach (depth) when only a moderate clamping force is required. Are these claims accurate? ...
I agree with Lee Schierer's remark that you can do dados well with a router. If you do rip cuts with your RAS, you'll give up that capability. I would replace your two existing saws with a quality...
Woodpeckers is offering a One-Time tool honing guide until May 20. It's basically a copy of the Kell honing guide but with wheels that can be moved to either the inside or outside position. This...
Hi,
I'm about to install drawer pulls on new kitchen cabinets and I'm trying to determine where to locate the pulls, vertically on the drawer front panels. I know I want the pulls installed near...
Hi,
I'm looking at installing LED undercabinet light strips for a kitchen remodel. For the high-task area of the countertop I'm planning on using LED high density light tape (950 lumens/meter),...
Dan, Jim and John,
Thanks for your comments.
I buy into Dan and Jim's suggestions that using the existing electrical service is probably grandfathered since the range would be in the same...
Hi Dan,
Yes, 2 #6 conductors plus a ground.
I'm not sure which range will be purchased. I've checked the installation instructions for some GE ranges and they state "All new constructions,...
Hi,
I have a question that's not related to woodworking, but could apply to shop wiring for a wood-working machine needing both 120 and 240 volt single-phase power.
I'm considering replacing an...
I'm having cherry kitchen cabinets made with a natural finish of conversion varnish. What sheen of conversion varnish on a 0-100 scale do you recommend using?
Thanks.
Bob
What type of screw do you recommend using for installing kitchen wall and base cabinets to the studs in the wall. I'm looking for screw size (#8, #10. #12, etc). length, and head type. ...
