I'm a bit confused here, is this the rotomolded polyethylene model or the carbon-fiber one?

IIRC bugs enjoy wet wood as well as the cambium layer between bark and sapwood. I have sawed the bark off all the boards. When it comes to bugs and boards: "If you cambium joint'em." Lordy,...
I have wood burning stove. Shorts go in there, and never seem to come out.
For several years I have had some problems with my chainsaws. I have trouble starting them, keeping them running, lack of power, etc., etc.. I had done some web serfing and found some folks...
Well I don't know, but I been told, a thick coat a paint ain't got no soul! :D
The oak came out great when I dried it in my shop. About six months after I stacked and stickered it, I planed it. It had dropped from 50%+ to about 15% moisture content. No mold and no checks at...
Products from Irene:
Last Friday with Hurricane Irene coming over the horizon, I cut down three large pines on the East side of my house. Each could have caused severe damage/injury if they were...
$20/pound sounds like a bargain. :rolleyes:
I have the HF 2HP DC, it is about a year old. I just measured the amperage. It pulls 27 amps on start up for about 2 seconds and within about another second drops to 8.5 with no load and 10.2 with...
Very beautiful work Mr. Hobbs! :)
It is a china table authenticated to John Townsend of Newport. Probably still in the Winterthur Museum. The open scroll work tray frame is indeed dovetailed in the corners. The skill and execution of...
Concur, well said. Thank God for the SEALs!
Bruce Hoadley, Understanding Wood is a wealth of useful information on all aspects of wood characteristics and properties. I wood recommend it for all woodworkers.
A long fence is nice when attempting to straighten a board. I clamp a 6 foot level to my Unifence when I need something longer.
That is a very pretty piece of work! You've done yourself proud!
1.) I have a woodstove that I use to burn:
a.) Wood that I recover from my land.
b.) Wood scraps
c.) Sawdust
this provides most of the heat.
2.) A canister type 40000 BTU propane heater that...
We generate lots of sawdust. Currently I burn about 90% of it which is time consuming and spreads a lot of the dust in the area around my woodstove. I shovel it right out of the bin into the...
I think I read about you in the newspaper, the headline read: "Nut Bolts, Leaves Washers Behind, Screws Self." I found the article both fastinating and riveting, so included it in this thread!.
I cleaned up the rack gear and pinion with a wire brush today and lubed it with graphite. Helped a little bit. Then I noticed a lock nut on the pinion gear axel and loosened it, which helped a lot....
beautiful stuff! :)
I see lots of references to the "borg". From the context I'm guessing it is not a reference to the pseudo-race of cyborgs, from the Delta Quadrant.
In my woodworking life I started at the other end. By that I mean that I had a project in mind and then found the tools and the materials to finish the project. I guess I don't know how to proceed...
I have a couple in my shop, but I despise them. I store a variety of things in them. Every time I go into them I start planning a set of drawers to replace them, but never seem to get around to it....
Looks wonderful! Mine is 23' x 27' inside. I wish mine was just a touch larger.
Seems to me you really only have two choices: cheap and nasty (OSB) or expensive and classy (Knotty pine or perhaps clear shiplap). Why plywood? I went with cheap and nasty and noticed that the...
