Good call again Sam. I agree maybe, as juvenile as it may seem, you should start with a simple stool or even a box. Not that you can't build your desk soon, but I think you would be greatly helped...
Good luck Sam. Hope it goes well and that your competence show in what you say and that your genius show in what you don't. I just scored a beautiful winding foyer set that we will do in a couple...
Sam,
As a stair guy I agree with the suggestions above, but as a builder I'm quite impressed with your hesitance to make a major new suggestion to the clients. I wish more of my subs would learn...
my advice is to forget Bosch all together and get a Hitachi, I've had both of the Bosch you mentioned and felt like they could not handle the abuse my employees and I gave them (we are finish...
I am looking for some herring bone patterns to show a customer, any ideas on where to have him look?
I own one and could not be happier, I have used the Grizzly and there are some neat differences, but the Jet has been an amazing saw and I would highly recommend it to anyone who will listen.

what is the best way to liquify perrafin wax and mineral oil together. My shop is on the backside of a firestation and I sure don't want to be the guy that started a fire there, I'll be using their...
I love the fact that the idiot used a 5 gallon bucket to start a table saw
I wouldn't do it at all, my first bandsaw was a 14" two wheel 3/4 horse Delta and I think that brand new I only paid $700. It's a shame your on the west coast, I've upgraded my saw and my old one is...
I am trying to figure out exactly how do you salt a block, call me an idiot but I just don't get it. I am also wondering if Linseed oil is a good finisher, if not is there something I can get at...
