    Use Sketchup

    Ben, I would fire up Sketchup and draw one to scale. Doing that will not only yield exact measurements, it will allow you to easily tweak it and maximize the space with custom drawers etc.

    Could you elaborate on that statement a little please Dave. I am thinking about buying that jointer. If it is deficient in some areas, I would like to know it before I buy it.

    25 amp tool on a 12 awg circuit

    Do you guys think it's safe to run a 25amp 220v tool off of 12 awg wire? 12 awg wire is rated at 20 amps and a 220 volt tool should only be pulling 12.5 amp on each hot wire.

    TIA

    bosch 4212 vs 4210

    I just noticed the Bosch 4212 is significantly cheaper than the 4210. I don't understand why. I would think they are essentially equal with the obvious exception of size. What gives?
  8. There are a few videos on this page

    The videos on this page (click the 5 images on the top of the page) were what helped me decide that I didn't need to spring for a more expensive jig. The 4212 is pretty impressive as you will see.

    Look at the difference

    You can't look at the amount your spending to make the best decision. You have to look at the difference and decide whether the difference is enough to justify the inferior end result. Let's say...

    Don't hang a door from rafters

    Hanging a door from rafters is a silly suggestion. Firstly, when doors are hung by their hinges in a door jamb, you have access to all 6 sides of the door anyway and painting them is simple and...
