My neighbor's tree shed it's top 1/2 earlier today and it took out my workshop. Blew out most of my lighting, shattered about 60 bf of lumber in the rafters, koocked off 2 cabinets, including one...

True, but the pattern template would provide more consistency when making multiple copies of the leg. I would have cut 1/16 off of the line w/ the bandsaw and then used the template to pattern the...
Excellent work. Love the granite top and black island as well. You should look into replacing the white outlets in the island with black ones.
I have my eye on a used Performax 16-32. I've never really considered a belt sander for reasons of space and usefulness, but the price is right for even occasional use with this one. I was thinking...
here's one:

Nice work. I like the clean design and the construction looks top notch.
Good thing it was built for my sister.
Dennis - the MOP was purchased in very thinly sliced veneer sheets (approx 5"x9" per sheet). It is hard to describe, but it looks like someone took larger...
Jewelery Cabinet on a stand
Mahogany, white oak, mother of pearl, patinated brass, silvercloth

TB III wil work just fine. Zebra wood is not oily like ebony, cocobola, rosewood, etc.
I have the General International w/ the tilting head. IMHO this is the best of the benchtop models. It has the high quality of the best brands (PM, Delta). It has the tilting head which makes it...
I'm going against the grain here and saying don't even bother to put a pull on it at all. If my eyes aren't deceiving me, there is a lip on the bottom of the drawer that protrudes below the drawer...
at least...
From what I gather by my non-scientific tests, the Wixey seems to be pretty accurate.
Mine seems to burn through batteries though. I may have used it 6-8 times and had to replace the battery. ...
Old Unisaws of any vintage are awesome (I have an early 40's model), but the new one looks really nice. It has received many positive reviews. If money wasn't an object I'd go new for two reasons...
Looks nice. I like the finish.
FYI - they make black soss hinges that match the other hardware you chose.
Sounds like the saw is priced on the higher end of the spectrum, especially w/ the economy the way it is right now. I have seen a lot of tools at bargain bottom prices on CL lately. $650 - $700 is...
I am looking for a piece of black ebony to make some square shaped handles out of for a piece of furniture that I am trying to finish prior to Christmas. (nothing like waiting until near the end)...
Nice to see some more contemporary style work on the boards. I can only look at so much Craftsman and Shaker before my eyes stary hurting.
I am a fan of contemporary furniture design and...
I would definitely suggest connecting the ground wire on a 115V application.
Is a Mercedes E-Class really worth $52,000? Maybe not when you can buy a Lexus ES for $34,000. There are certainly differences, but almost $20K worth??? Same goes for a nice Makita or Bosch vs....
I agree completely. I have the General Int. as well. I looked long and hard at the Jet and SC and probably would have gotten the SC, but the tilting head on the GI makes it a lot more flexible. ...
There is no choice to consider. Get the Makita and be done with it. I have the MAC700 and it works great. It is an oiled compressor so you can expect that it will last for a long time. It is...
I used to use my iPod in the shop w/ a pair of Shure in the ear phones. I always had the iPod in my back pocket and I ran the wire up inside my shirt so it didn't get in the way.
They sounded...
No. Looking at the leaves is the first way to see the difference. If you were just looking at the wood, that should be rather easy to determine as well.
I hate to say it, but a 1 car garage does not qualify as a "small" shop by most standards. I went from a 1 car garage to a 12' x 16' detached shed so I know what you've got. You could barely fit...
