Is there any particular primer that I should use? Would the Sherwin-Williams Premium Wall & Wood Primer work well?

When I painted the ceiling in my basement I used Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint...

I built an indoor dog/house kennel for my dog out of big box store Birch.

From what I’ve read online, it seems that I want to use an oil based primer and paint because it will paint better. Seems...

I have a Sawstop PCS with the in-line router table, but with the 57” rails. I have the melamine insert to fill the gap from between the table saw and the router table, but it would be nice to make it...

Here’s a trick that I do with my table saw.

I put Bioshield on the tabletop, but I also put towels on top of it. I went through last winter with the table saw in storage and all I got was...

Just in case anyone cares, I got the hose from Peachtree. It seems like a pretty nice hose. Not sure if it's like Rockler Dust Right, but I like the Peachtree one.

I attached an image of the layout of the house. Where it says 8 feet, there is 8 feet of wall space between the wall and the closet. Since that space is almost useless because the closet takes up...

Thanks for all the comments.

I ordered the Peachtree "EZ Sweet", I guess I'll find out if it's any good in a few days.

What bandsaw blades does everyone recommend?

I have a Ridged 14” bandsaw. I was still using the blade that it came with it and did a lot of cutting with it over the past two years. I knew the...

I know, get a licensed electrician and a permit blah blah blah. My cousin is a master election, but I wanted to seem at least somewhat educated before I start having him help me. :)

I want to put...

I was thinking of picking up a dust collector and was wondering what other's thoughts are on this dust collector found...

Does anyone have any experience with the EZ Flex Hose at Peachtree Woodworking Supply? You can find it at the top of page here: http://www.ptreeusa.com/dusthose.htm

I have a small garage shop and...

Mutual fund stock is calculated at the end of the day for the stock prices. For example, let’s assume your fund is made up of MSFT, AAPL, AA, and DELL. At the close of the day they will calculate its...

Tom,
I wouldn’t declaw my cat either and I believe it’s not good to do to the cat (it’s like cutting your fingers off at the knuckles).

I suggest getting yourself a finger nail clipper (I’ve...

Jim,

I’m sorry to hear this. We’ll keep you, your wife, and your family in our prayers.

Thanks everyone for your response. I ended up getting a 36" Steel Straightedge from Lee Vally. In my winter coat I found a gift card for $70 and the $69 for the straightedge with free shipping, it...

Count me in

Another thought is perhaps low cost storage for your car. My Dad stores one of his car at a different location than his home and when he wants to drive it he goes over there and takes it out for a...

I have a sports car too and in the summer it sits outside and in the winter I put it inside to keep the snow off of it. When I want to work on a project I will take all three cars out and put them in...

Yes, sometimes they are that hard. I have a restriction because I can’t build a structure within 100 feet of the power lines behind my house. I doubt I could get a variance because my whole house is...

My wife and I are in a similar situation. We have a three car garage and we were out working on a project and she said, “Boy, it would be nice if we had a bigger shop” (We’re currently taking up all...

I’m curious as to what the rest of you use for a straight edge for checking the flatness of plans, table saw tops, etc.

Did you buy something at a big box store like Home Depot or do use...

Please enter me.

Is there anything that I should know aobut BarKeepre’s Friend or just that it not being shinny/new doesn’t bother you so you’d leave it alone?

Thanks,

Brett

Matt,

My sincere condolences for the loss of your Dad.

I have a new table saw that while I was assembling it I got some sweat on it. This caused a little rust and I was able to remove it, but after I removed the rust it still left a mark in the cast...
