Good Morning,

I have been slowly getting my act together after the company downsizing/ reorganization from last year. Needless to say I have been busy in the shop finishing up our bedroom set. We...

Pretty busy weekend with 4 bball games and 2 indoor soccer games. I did get to finish LOML's cherry triple dresser. Bought some more cherry last week to build a tall chest for ME! I have never...

Thay are coming out of the woodwork...so to speak :p

Mike,

It would appear that you can make 3 separate "boxes" and secure them together with the center box offset and higher than the other two.

The boxes do not have a top or bottom to them and...

Dennis,

After using a Stanley #92 for years, LOML got me the LV Medium shoulder plane for my birthday. I tuned it up and used it to fit some tenons. The difference is night and day vs. the old...

Got that heater hooked up yet? It has got to be cold this weekend dude!

Paul

Jason,

Nice piece of work. I think the legs look great! Did you use a wooden drawer glide of some sort of metal beasty?

Paul

Waymon,

I am in the minority as well but it seems to be getting more competitive. I have a HTC 2000 under my JET 6" CS jointer and one under my 14" BS. They are stable and move nicely! I have...

Schweeet! really nice...

Good evening all!

Has anyone used the Lee Valley honing jig for planer/ jointer knives?

How about the type of jig that can sharpen knives while they are still in the jointer?

Has anyone...

Real nice Dave,

I just have mine hanging on cup hooks in the tool cabinet. I think I only have 12 last I counted...

Doc,

I purchase some flexible gas pipe from Menards for $40 (25 ft) that you can bury underground if sheathed in conduit. They also have other lengths as well. This is a safe, cost effective way...

Dave/John (et al)

Dave...have you noticed a slight hum when there is power to the heater at idle? I am sure it is just the electronics but wanted to be sure yours did it too. I always shut off...

Bruce...

I dead stack my lumber and haven't had a problem yet...the rack is much fuller now than when this shot was taken...

Stickering it would just get in my way...

John,

I just did this last weekend. 5" B-vent pipe, thimble, adapter and cap is sold at Menards (Lowes and HD also should have it). You need a 3" to 5" adapter and a slight pitch downward if you...

Matt,

There is a good design in Shop Notes (can't remember the issue) that I have with the intention of building it. It hasn't happened as of yet. You may want to look at the Shop notes site and...

$442.00 plus delivery Tom. I don't get WOOD so I am not sure.

I am going to order a shop furnace this morning! I have been hemming and hawing and trying to talk myself into using the old electric heaters one more winter.

Going to go with the Hot Dawg 45K...

What a scheister!

Good going John...we need to see some pics of the new place after you get settled in ....

Paul

I noticed this as well when the Jorgensen feeding frenzy took place a while back....99% of the links went back to Amazon.com.

What a monopoly!

Howard,

My guess is that the stock is dry if they have been stickered for two years. Short of using a moisture meter, I would just use it...

Paul

Great Job Tom! You lathe guys are impressive....

Paul

Thanks Tom,

Now that life is settling down a bit, I need to get re-aquainted with the forum and all its little nuances!

Paul

Keith,

How does one enter for such a drawing...is a secret handshake needed :confused: :confused: :confused:

Hi Dom,

I thought maybe you were starting a high roughage diet, then I saw you made this bowl for someone else! Nice job on the turning...you turners impress me!
