#2 is the one I would choose. No doubt. :)
I may be wrong, but I'm guessing most table saw accidents these days are by average do it yourselfers that aren't avid woodworkers. Sure, woodworkers like us still have this type of accident because...
The smaller the pieces you cut on a miter saw.. the greater the chance for less support from the fence (depending on the saw). Ideally you would have a zero clearance surface and zero clearance...
I have a bad back and I moved mine new sawstop about 2 months ago, into my basement from my garage.
Not with brute force mind you, but with patience, planning and leverage.
I removed the top (yes...
I wish google also had a popularity measurement instead of just trends. That way you could truly judge the relative popularity of woodworking instead simply the trend. The trend of festool ......
It is declining, but I think it is also changing into something else with youtube and the maker movement.
Time will tell ... but check out this graph on google trends for woodworking searches...

I have the bosch hose on my makita track saw as well and it is perfect.
I've used spray glue to attach a paper template to wood for cutting things like bandsaw boxes, but I've found it to be a bad idea to use my 12 inch disc sander to remove it later because the glue...
Type of wood is a factor, but I choose to take less than a 1/16" (more like 1/32") per pass and make more passes.
The other factor about face jointing to consider, is that you don't have to get...
My first choice would be CNC. Second choice would be to use templates as a guide.
Festool Domino here.
IMHO... a better name for both machines would actually be:
A jointer should be called a planer, since the board surface "planer". This is what the British and Aussies call it.
A planer should be...

I only sticker the bottom board from the floor in my basement. My basement is very dry (no dampness at all).. the floor is still bare concrete and could still impart more moisture to the bottom of...
I got the makita and can't imagine needing anything more. I therefore concur that the makita is the best value and if money were no object, I suppose the festool may be better. Not sure exactly how...
For me... it should have no wobble or slack, but shouldn't be tight. It should be a slip-fit. It should slide easily together with mild friction and little effort. Like you said... the glue will...
Southern Yellow Pine or Cypress, but definitely not Ash IMHO.
My hand truck isn't a Harbor Freight brand... I was just using it as an example. A good one with the roller belts really helps avoid scraping your steps. :)
Hand Truck / Dolly with ratchet strap and stair climber belt. Mine looks something like this one from Harbor Freight http://www.harborfreight.com/600-lb-capacity-appliance-hand-truck-60520.html. ...
I just learn to expect it and choose which part of my body takes the shock. Fingertips have more nerve endings than the back of your hand.
1. sand
2. fill with a quality 2 part epoxy
3. sand again
4. repaint
Agreed. Well said Glenn.
I am lucky enough to have dealer in my area. If I bought a sawstop for $3000 online... shipping appears to be about $250 most places. If I purchase locally... the tax would be about $180. This is...
Between those 2... I would pay the extra and get the Powermatic. My biggest concerns would be the accuracy of the chuck and the quality of the clamping table. I have the cheaper Rikon mortiser and...
