    I've used chainsaws for years, but I've never had that particular problem. I don't dump my fuel (don't want it polluting the ground water, etc). I always use stabilizer during the winter months.

    In my neck of the woods, spiders are always less prevalent during the winter months (whether or not osage orange apples are present). From my experience, that's a myth.

    For the Windsor pieces that I've done, I used Titebond liquid hide glue rather than making up the hot glue pot. I believe that modern liquid hide glue is a very high quality glue. It is also a lot...

    I only had the LN curved bottom shave when I did my Windsor chair recently. While a flat bottom would have been preferable for the outsides and flats, the curved bottom did the job quite well. You...

    I had essentially zero sawdust inside my headstock (after 4 1/2 years!). So, that's not the cause for my situation.

    I can chime in with my recent experience. I have a 4 1/2 year old Nova DVR 3000. Recently, I have been getting frequent "Current Overload" faults only when pressing the "On" button. Cycling through...

    It don't think learning how to use SketchUp is comparable to learning how to sing or play a musical instrument. Those skills require a combination of timing, muscle coordination, and physical...

    Depending on the season, I have a slight concave bow in the extension table where it meets the right CI wing. Since it doesn't affect performance of the saw, I don't worry about it. Regarding the...

    I've adjusted mine, but I don't recall all the details right now. I'll have to take a look tomorrow. It was a tight space, as I recall. I must have the appropriate wrenches to get in there. My tool...

    I'm curious about letting the machine sit in the crate for a few months. Could this have contributed to the corrosion? It's not clear to what conditions the crate was exposed. Personally, my PM2000...

    Larry,

    I probably should have been more tactful in my statements. However, I see posts like yours every now and then. It came across as being a hopeless situation. I've observed that learning SU...

    Respectfully, I think most of the problems that SU newbies have are due to the fact that they refuse to read and/or watch the tutorials. How can one understand how a software application works...

    I think it's a bit premature to state with certainty whether a chair using Domino joinery will last 100 or more years.

    Most likely, it depends on the quality of design, materials, and...

    I guess it depends on your personal perspective. My perspective appears to be quite different than yours. I'm a SketchUp user, although I've also used TurboCAD quite a bit in the past. I've looked at...

    I made a hammock stand in 2004 using bent lamination of Cypress. It turned out very well I think. Plenty strong, but still flexes nicely to give a good feel when in the hammock. I used 1/8" thick...

    Another no, here. I quite like the LN 60 1/2, whether using it one or two handed. For really small pieces or close quarters, I use the LN Squirrel Tail modeler's plane.
