I did the exact same thing with my 1221VS. Had to buy a die to fix the threads.
Has anyone tried to remove theirs yet? Easy or hard to do? Roughly how much does it weigh? I've got a new 1221VS arriving in a week or two, and I'm wondering if I remove everything from the base...
Jack, I just saw this article. Very well done!
The concrete floor is in good shape, but I'd prefer to work on a wood surface for my own comfort. The concrete is cold, hard, and damp (the builder did not use a vapor barrier for the garage). ...
I use "heavy duty" hooks that I buy from my local hardware store. They don't have any special clips or attachment mechanisms, they're just made from 1/4" rod that *barely* fits into the pegboard...
Right now I use 1/2 of a two-car garage for my shop, and I'm considering converting the whole garage to a shop and putting in plywood floors over the concrete. I plan to use 2x4 stretchers with...
I recently picked up an old Skilsaw Model 825 (wormdrive, 8 1/4" blade) at a yard sale. Seems to run well, but it could use an oil change and a new gasket or two. Does anyone have an old 825 manual...
Yes, thanks.
Yes, thanks.
Yes, thanks.
Yes, thanks.
I'm in, thanks.
Also called a "slitting gauge". It's missing its fence; the hole at the end was probably used for hanging the tool on a hook. Graham Blackburn describes it on page 20 of the May 1994 issue of...
Ditto. The G0555X with riser block really takes a 106" blade. If you already have a 105" blade, lower the tension as much as you can and then wrestle the blade on.
I'm trying to refinish an old saw handle. I tried removing the old shellac by soaking the handle in denatured alcohol, but this left a white, dusty residue behind. Repeated soakings in fresh...
I'm in, thanks.
It's more than just plans to build a tool chest. About 50 pages is a meditation on building furniture to last vs. buying furniture that won't last, and about buying from fellow craftspeople rather...
Can anyone recommend a small mitre box similar to the Langdon No. 16-1/2? I would be happy with a Langdon No. 16-1/2, but they are hard to come by. Thanks.

The fence can easily be removed. On my JJP12, I measured 21.5" from the cabinet back to the front of the on/off button assembly (which protrudes from the cabinet front).
I have it, it's probably my favorite hand tool. I don't use it as often as I would like -- guess I just need to build more projects that contain drawers.
I've had one shutdown since I started running my JJP12 without the back panel. I think it allows the machine to be used longer, but the motor still gets hot.
I'm using an ECE Primus Improved Smoothing Plane (wooden body and sole). It has a 50 degree bevel-down blade. I'm taking .002" shavings. I don't know how to accurately measure the camber, but I...
I've cambered the edges of my smoothing plane iron so that it does not leave plane tracks, but it does leave slight "furrows" in the wood. As I plane, the ridges between the furrows are getting...
You might try releasing the table lock handles whenever the machine is not in use. It sounds like it's slowly flexing when you leave the handles "torqued down".
