Most commercial feather boards are $20. or more, yuck.
The 3/4" PVC is perfect for feather boards, again, it was not my idea, here's where I found it:

I just discovered PVC exterior trim at Lowes. $20. for a 1X6 8ft long. It fits the miter slots on my Sawstop perfectly. I attach it with 5 min epoxy and it sticks like a ton of bricks. I have made a...
Just picked up one of these on CL, really happy with it so far. Does anybody have one of these? I'm planning to make a chip shroud and did some poking around the machine, the steel plate that covers...
Thanks Cap! Pennies are a great solution.
Great idea, thanks jim:)
I know, it's weird. I'm building a new miter saw station and want to make the platforms on either side of the saw height-adjustable so I can tweak them for level. I plan to put T-nuts under the...
Anybody know if the 1.5HP Shopfox DC can be upgraded using the Rikon impeller?
The Snappy is a good tool tool. Let me know if you discover the other one.
I like the "Great Planes" brand, always had good results with it. Amazon.
Here ya go:

Amazon has the Fisco big T tapes, just got the 16 footer, it's excellent....
This is the best hex bit holder I have seen, I've had it for a long time and don't remember the brand. It ejects the bit when the knurled collar is pulled toward the drill. Bits are inserted by just...
I found a website in the U.S. that sells the Frisco tapes:

Interesting that the major brands like Stanley don't talk about accuracy. I ordered a BT16E, will...
Yeah, I bought a pedal that you have to keep your foot on to allow air to pass to the cylinder, I put a regulator between the pedal and the cylinder, been experimenting with how much pressure is...
The big issue is the hook. The rivet holes become elongated over time. I have had to tweak the hooks of some older tapes I have.
So what do you like for use in the shop, cabinet making and other smaller projects.
Went to a granite counter top shop today and bought a 6" X 30" X 1.25" backsplash cutoff for $40. Looks to be flat enuf for woodworking, my precision ground straightedge looks great on it.
I just watched William Ng's sled video too and I have the same question. What are you using as a "Flat reference"? How about a 4" piece of square aluminum tubing?
Any other ideas?
How do they grind...
yeah, could have been much more dramatic than it was.
Yup, agree 100%
Nonetheless seems like it would be prudent to mold these parts out of material that doesn't turn into shards, just sayin'...
So...I was cutting some 2 inch wide strips of 1/2 inch baltic birch about 8 inches long when the blade caught the piece and shot the end of it into the dust chute. The chute fractured breaking off...
Yeah, really good point, I have moved the fence to the left of the blade to do some bevels in the past, another reason to have some table available on the left. If the rails are long enough the fence...
Is safety the reason for left-tilt?
So sheet goods seems to be the big driver of space to the left of the blade. Track saws have changed the game I guess. My thinking was solidified before there were track saws, in the past I always...
