I've been making my own versions of these. Where are you sourcing your screens?

Thanks for your responses. It did appear to be a hydrolock which we were able to clear. Filled and running fine now.

I'm hoping someone on here is good with compressor motors. I have a large CH 7.5 HP compressor. I was changing the oil today and had a brain fart. I started to refill the oil through the breather....

Hi all,

Our guild has a wood reclamation program and we're milling trees often. Went through 4 Wood Mizer blades this past weekend with deep metal in old oak. It was more than 4" below the...

I agree with Warren. 2 different tools. I have a stroke sander, use it often and love it. A very skilled friend and ex high school woodworking teacher introduced me to the machine. Very versatile...

It's hard to say with photos but it looks like Cherry to me.

Cheers,

Hi Roger,

Thanks for you comments but the first thing I state is I wear a full face shield. With this, I also wear an N95 3M 8211 dust filter. My face and lungs are protected with my set up. ...

I wear a full face shield and a 3M 8211 filter mask with glasses. This seems to work fine and since I wear the filter mask all the time in the shop, I don't quite understand the need for a $400...

Mark, any idea of the quality? Little said on the website.

I would prefer to order from him myself but I want a response. I'm afraid if I purchase, I will never receive my goods.

I'm a small business person too with an Artisan Woodworking business and...

I've been trying to contact Don Pencil to get his buffing system. Mostly I want his lathe adaptor, the 8" or the 12" for the wheels and balls. There has been no response from his site, email or...

Does anyone know if Don Pencil Woodturning is still in business with his buffing wheels and mandrels? I've sent emails and left voicemails for a week with no response. I'm hoping to get some of his...

That's the shortbed. I'm getting the longbed. But this helps. Thanks.

Actually it's not on their website. I've gone through a couple of times. Downloaded the manuals too.

Anyone else?

Hi all,

I'm installing the floor on my new shop and want to beef up the area for my lathe. I'm getting a Vicmarc VL300 used from someone. It will be shipped so I have no access to it until I...

I will have lots of storage. Under all the surfaces is storage plus on the walls. Again in the side building. My TS is a slider and is next to my miter saw bench so a permanent outfeed table...

OK. Suggestions for lathes have been considered. Thanks Eric. What do you think of this new layout?

It's got 2 benefits over the previous layout.

1. The lathes are butting up to a wall so...

I have a 600 sq ft loft with outside entry above the shop. I will use that for finishing and a gallery.

Where would you put a lathe that's perpendicular to a wall that wouldn't cause new...

You assume correctly. The roller bench moves around easily and can be an outfeed table for the TS. The router table is on wheels but I don't move it much usually. I have another cabinet on wheels but...

Hi folks,

I've been laying out my new shop for months and now it's time to build. I'm wondering if anyone can offer suggestions for improving the layout. The building is already standing with a...

The decision's been made. I'm going with 2 saws. It's extravagant but I use both set ups frequently. It's a big time waste changing over and I find I'll avoid it and delay cuts I need to make...

I need a larger saw for my curvy/small blade machine. I need a min 18" throat. That's been the issue. Buy a larger machine for the curvy work but get a machine capable of resawing. That was why I...

Thanks for your replies. One of my main pieces requires the 18" throat. I had a Laguna LT18 (sold it now) and I utilized all of the throat. Going smaller won't work. I used the term "scrolly...

I have the envious situation of setting up a new shop with new tools. I moved last week (not enviable, totally gross) but sold my machinery for a decent price to allow me to purchase new and not...

Wow!!! That is awesome!
