Hello All-
My favorite garage sale experience was with a friend of mine. He had a skil-saw in good shape, except the cord had been cut.
He put it out on the table with a tag that said, "50...

Hello All-
Well, I tried the Silicone spray on the teeth of the Incra Fence, and sure enough, it did the job. I spent most of the weekend in the shop (building Norm's Router Table project) and...
Hello All-
I ended up calling the Incra tech-support people, and like some of you had said, he mentioned two things that can cause the problem.
The first one is the micro-adjust lever. He said...

What a beautiful job you did on the built-ins. I will be making some to put down in our finished basement soon.
I had a few questions for you, if you don't mind....

Hello All-
I have the Incra TS-III table saw fence and absolutely love it. However, lately, when I release the fence "lock" device, the teeth do not separate and I have to "jiggle" the fence...
Hello All-
Thought I'd add my 2 cents... I saw this coupon early on in this posting, so I printed it out and took it into our local HD. I asked if they would honor it, and the guy checked with...
Hello All-
For those of you in the Colorado area, is there a place in Denver (and surrounding areas) that you recommend for purchasing wood for woodworking?
Specifically, I am looking for...
Hello All-
Was wondering if you might be able to help me out here... Our kitchen stove (not that old) has decided not to heat up like normal. So, I stuck in a digital thermometer and set the...

I wanted to give you a big "Thank You". I read your post, saw the price of the turbine HVLP gun and looked it up online. They had it listed for $79.00.
I then printed out your 20% off...

Hello All-
Due to a job transfer, I will be moving from Colorado back to Oregon in the next few months.
I have a lot of large tools and house-hold furnishings that will need to be moved. ...
Thank you all for your replies.
There were a lot of great replies. I like the dado idea to keep the face frames straight with the carcase. I also would love to use pocket holes/screws, but don't...
Hello All-
I am building some cabinets for a lady at our church. I have the cases and the face frames built.
I was wondering... What is the best way to attach the face frames to the cases? ...

Consider yourself lucky! I had a similar accident and didn't fair so well. I was turning an alabaster bowl (a type of stone) on my lathe. I wear a full-face mask (the AirMate, which I...
Hello Vaughn-
Thanks for the pictures and the write-up on the router bridge.
One thing I would be worried about it tear-out on the edges of the cutting board where the router bit enters and...
I don't enjoy reading about the injuries in this post, but I do enjoy reading them because it helps me learn.
The only major accident I had in my shop was on the lathe. I was turning a large...

Hello All-
I was hoping one of you might be able to help me identify this saw. It was handed down through the family to me. My Grandpa used to have it and then gave it to my Dad. My Dad never...
I know it sounds corny, but it works... After you squirt the medicine in, rub the cat's nose a bit. This causes them to instinctively swallow (don't ask me why...)
Do this as soon as you squirt...
Hello All-
I am in the market for getting a router lift. I had made my own "poor-mans, cheap" version of one that "pushed" the router up as you turned a crank under the router, but it doesn't work...
