It never would have occurred to me that I could overtighten a vise.
I did a little googling and I think I got it from Rockler. It's identical to these two though it seems to fall in between in...
About 14 years ago I bought two woodworking vises that I planned to use for a new work bench. I didn't get around to building that bench until now and I mounted one of the vises to my new bench. Of...
I agree. Mine too.
Thanks for all the replies.
My daughter lives in NC and has a covered porch. I'd like to build her a set of outdoor chairs and a small table.
Besides cedar, what would be a good wood choice for this project? And what kind of...
Please don't interpret my questions as an indication that I am not grateful for your generosity. I am new to planes and have no idea what I am looking at.
I think that's really cool. I can see why people collect old planes. Most antiques are decorative. These antiques are still useable and not obsolete. How would you rate these planes compared to...
I've found weed block to be ineffective and it eventually gets exposed and ragged. For me it would be round up in a 2 gallon pump sprayer. I walk the beds once a week or so. A gallon of concentrate...

Look what the Easter Bunny brought me!
Not one but two hand planes. A number 5 and a number 4.
I was working on this pine workbench when they were delivered and they went...
Thank you Steve!
Agreed.
Now I have to actually make something with that plane that's worthy of the generosity. Not sure I'm up to that challenge!
PM sent. Thanks again.
That's outrageously generous. I'd like to venmo you $ for it. I really love the idea that someone who knows how a plane is supposed to work has used it and thinks that it works as it should. That...
Thanks. Where does one buy a second iron? And can you link me to a good sharpening video? I would need both materials and technique.
Thank you Jimmy and Cameron
What about this Stanley#5 Jack Plane? Does this look serviceable and a good place for me to get started?

I'm looking to buy my first hand plane. I've never owned or even used one before.
My first task will be to flatten a 27" by 48" 2x4 pine work bench top.
My second task will probably be to...
I just did a google search and a guy on the Thien forum says that the Grizzly 12 3/4 by 3 1/2 impeller # P1028Z2010 works.
On another forum a guy says that his cfm at the end of a 41 ft run went...
Craig - I am using a HF unit with a Wynn filter - has anyone measured what kind of improvement we can get by going to the bigger impeller?
Or how about a cleanable canister type filter like this one? https://www.oneida-air.com/inventoryD.asp?item_no=VSFSHZ000A&CatId={6F3C8CEC-1505-484A-AD28-BF1FA0D012DB} More expensive but higher...
I was thinking that I should buy one of those plated bag type filters that Wynn Env sells. I assume that those catch more fine dust than the furnace filters I can get at my hardware store.
I like...
I'm building my first air cleaner. Got this blower off of CL. It's 1/2 hp and 8 amps. Dimensions are about 16" x 18" x 13." What type of filters should I be using and what size? Suggested...
Over the summer I purchased a used furnace fan with the intent of building an air cleaner. Have not done it yet, but getting close. In the meantime I have the opportunity to buy an unused, second...
Thanks for that advice. I had that problem with my primer. It was applied in my cold garage and must have taken an extra long time to dry because the dust balled up and stuck to the paper instead...
I am building mud room built ins out of plywood. I primed them with BM primer, sanded it smooth and applied one coat of BM Advance waterborne alkyd satin. I am very happy with the way it looks and...
