Hi, I have a 2HP Dust Gorilla that is about 5 years old. It is hooked to the usual layout of woodworking equipment. Lately I have been doing a lot of bead blasting with a small cabinet and it is very...

Finally hooking up the table saw to my dust collector. it is an oneida 2Hp cyclone. I have the overhead guard hooked up to a 4 inch spiral duct and can potentially run a 4 or 5 inch intake to a cover...
Bumped in case any Ontario residents need a Big Delta Band Saw/ 16 hours to go.
I would like this, but my shop is on the small side now due to being a pack rat and am satisfied with my General 15". Anyway, some of these auctions do not go too high, some go way higher than they...
Howdy, been busy lately, but stumbled across this Government of Canada surplus auction with a General (Canadian built) 15 inch Bandsaw. I have this exact one in my shop and paid considerably more for...
You could always take up another hobby , like motorcycle restoration, or buy a CNC machine. Sounds like a good size.
I have always had great service out of refurbs. I'm typing on one now. I also love my Makita slider.
Thanks, I'll check them out.
Yes, I break the rules a lot already!. I do have an area set up for welding that has decent air extraction, just not explosive rated motors. I have done a lot of spray can work in this room, wearing...
Hello, my wife wants me to paint a chest of drawers in a soft white. I figure the best finish I can get will be sprayed on. I don't have any spray equipment, but this would be a good excuse to get...
That looks to be built for some use. Should be good till the year 2225 at least.
I paid $200 for my 5KW Ouellet heaters from Northern Tool and they are made in North America. Seems to me they should all be about equal in terms of output. The one in your link looks a bit more...
I have a Fujitsu ductless AC system in my shop that has a heat Pump. It works great as far as I can see. I was surprised it works in very cold Temperatures. (Toronto gets some). I also have a couple...
I noticed on a Dylos search that Phil Thien had organized a group buy last year. I wish I had acted then. I volunteer restoring a plane similar to the one in my signature shot and we are always glass...
You know if we had a group buy on one of these Dylos meters and mailed it from shop to shop for two week periods, the cost of admission would be pretty low.
My guess is that it is better, customer support is better, but probably not $600 better. If all you could buy was a Grizzly Import, I would suspect the $600 savings would not be there. As time...
I am actually a dedicated putterer. I have everything I like under one roof. Cars, tools, stereo, guitar, AC/heat, books. One hookup to civilization through a 200 amp service. Good lumber store...
Now I want one. Won't be buying a copy if I have the budget for a new fence.
Well, my shop is in a semi tough Urban part of Toronto and about an 8 minute drive from my House. I find cooking wine bottles on my stoop some mornings and have a security camera monitoring my door...
I guess we shouldn't use our real names . Make sure your friends are good aimers. I also have a jug to use in my shop. A custom washer fluid jug with a cutout just for me. It is emptied every night...
I am leaning on getting my concrete floor polished with a clear on it after. It should look like a Home Despot floor when done. (If it is ever done)
To continue with the thread drift, I seriously considered getting a South African built Superformance version of that Lotus. Beautifully finished. I currently have an SC Elise in my dreams at night.
Buy a car or bike with great handling capabilities if in NC. I love the roads. My Dad lives in Boone and I am overdue for a visit.
You nailed me. Just don't tell anybody. I haven't been around here much lately because I built a welding room. Didn't stop there as now I have purchased a beautiful metal lathe made locally (Standard...
I have recently purchased a Plasma cutter and the folks from the welding forums swear by Motorguard filters. (looks like a toilet paper roll) You can get the filters with housing from Amazon for a...
