Years ago I had a Sears DC with a fabric bag but it was so coarse it just filtered out the big stuff and launched all of the fine dust into the air. I have since used way more efficient DC's that...

Good deal Rick. I think you are going to be very happy with the SawStop! It really is muchn more than the blade brake.
I'm pretty sure there is a conspiracy amongst the manufacturers that made sure there was some kind of sale whenever I thought I needed a clamp. seeing the sale price naturally I bought a few to...
I also have the SawStop Professional cabinet swaw and it is very easy to adjust the miter slot to the blade, but so was my PM2000, both just have the four bolts that loosen the top. the sawStop is a...
Check out the link below, it's to a story on my metal site that talks about wire speed and related things. that is a big part of getting a MIG to weld right. You still have to practice and experiment...
I had a PM2000 for secveral years and while it is a very gfood table saw, I went to the SawStop. I think the SawStop is a better saw all around plus there is the brake thing. I also got SawStops...
When I did my testing of the SawStop I was very impressed with the braking feature and when I added that on top of the saw being so well made overall my PM2000 as good of a saw as it is, rolled right...
A friend of mine was at a hobby shop with his son getting model airplane stuff when he noticed that they sell carbon fiber in strips of various widths and lengths, used to re inforce model airplane...
I have reviews of a few wire welders as well as a couple of stick machines but for the purposes you list, wire welders will be light years easier to use/learn. My personal machine is the Lincoln Pro...
I have the PCS and while I was very impressed with it right out of the box, that has grown now with experience using it. This is a really well made saw that performs very well in every way I have...
I know they had this lathe in the works well before the recession hit and then like lots of companies it went on the back burner until the economy started showing signs of life. I like what they did...
I would think that it has the inverter for pne phase lke the 3520B. 3 phase is really industrial only in most places.
Not a flesh-sensing table saw but the speculation should be over by the end of this coming weekend.
I have been a fan of Carter's stuff for years. tbheir bearing guides are the best I have seen and are on every band saw I have int my shop either when it comes or shortly afterward. In my opinion...
I also joined the SawStop ranks a couple months ago and was also pleasantly surprised at the quality of the saw around the brake system. I have the Professional Cabinet saw and it is full of new...
I have the industrial mobile base under my PCS and love it. two or three pumps (bring your lunch, the pumps are like 3" strokes that take maybe a whole second each!) and the machine is up and on four...
I look at the misconceptions about the SawStop triggering accidentally in the second part of my SawStop review. They have thought of your concerns and you can deal with that kind of thing easily. The...
I've got the Professional Cabinet version and have used a PM2000 for years and other higher end table saws. The SawStop is a very nice piece with lots of very nice engineering and thinking besides...
I use the DrillDoctor 750X in my shop and love it. I have brought dozens of old drills back from the dead with this thing and can freshen a drill very quickly when needed. See the link below for my...
Yes. It's a get rich quick scheme. Or, you can just watch the one at the original link for free.
Yup. You don't have to worry about me doing that again! Maybe next we will investigate playing in traffic or something.....
Note: The requests for the kickback video have far exceeded our ability to deal with individually. I am working around the clock to get a DVD (Blu-Ray also I think) put together and into production...
I had been thinking about this video for over a year and have been talking to people about how to do it as safely as possible but yet show a full--on kickback. the reason we went with the push block...
I posted a story and video yesterday in which I tried to recreate a kickback on a table saw. I did get the kickback but even with all of the planning and knowing what was about to happen I very...
I think that this is a good example of trying it on scrap first! I have used poplar a bunch of times and depending on the finish, the end grain pins do get darker than the long grain enough to show...
