I have a set of 3M Worktunes with Bluetooth,
but mostly I'm rockin to my vintage Sherwood receiver playing thru 4 EPI speakers.
I can hook my phone to it thru a simple patch cord to listen to...

Is this you too sometimes?
Being a guy who works mostly 6 tens a week and still wants to make stuff for family, friends and church, (which I do a lot of) one of the things I looked forward to the...

My lil "elf" got me a Supermax Air Filtration Unit for my workshop, and honey-do list requests for new kitchen drawers, and a built-in corner coffee station cabinet.

I was given a nice piece of the biggest Mulberry tree I'd ever seen this spring.
Asking if anyone here has experience on how it takes to turning.
Specifically, I'm thinking about making a couple of...

Do you have a riding mower/garden tractor? Back in the day when I lived on 12 acres with a 1400' long driveway​, I moved all kinds of stuff around on a redneck sled made out of a 4x8 sheet of treated...

I too would modify my saw blades to fit the existing arbor. As a machinist myself, I can tell you it will take longer to set the blade up in the mill than it will to interpolate the bore to size.
I...

There's a group of folks at our church who get together once a month to knit hats and scarves and such for the homeless and disadvantaged. Many are golden agers, and have mentioned numerous times...

I'm not saying no, but, the entire geometrical design of an end mill is designed to optimize removing metals. The fast twist as pictured will tend pull the wood fibers up and increase tearout on the...

I see your point, because everyone should use their property they way they enjoy to the extent their neighbors cannot enjoy theirs the way they want to enjoy. Makes perfect sense to me now. I didn't...

I am going on what you said the neighbor complained about...The smoke.
I have to side with the neighbor here. Some folks are truly allergic to smoke. Others have respiratory issues that are severely...

I've been using my Grizzly 1023 3hp since this summer with no issues of inadequate power so far. I think keeping a sharp blade in it is key regardless of power available.

Congrats on the new shop Bob!
I have a new shop too, and some of my 70's stereo stuff is out there in a ReStore find hi-fi cabinet with glass door. Receiver, cassette deck, equalizer and turntable....

Is it just me?, or the camera angle?, Or, in the cabin panel, is that a double pole 30A breaker on the bottom LH side with one pole hanging off the bottom of the buss not connected? I agree with...

It's time to heat my lil shop so I can work in there.
Looking in Menards, they have a couple of them I am considering.
King modelGH24077B @$294 or
Profusion model EH-4604B @$134.
Both are 7500w....

My 2cents: after checking out the obvious, that being all accessible components from panel to non-working outlets/switches, for incorrect wiring/defective components, I'd then have a look inside the...

Regarding the linked YouTube video, I can't decide on what I am obsessed with more, the level of skill and ability, or the apparent level of spare time to work in the shop!

We had well water at a property we lived at previously. We had a problem with iron algae, and other hard water issues. We got Hague's best system and had success with it.

I bought a Grizzly 1023S from a private owner a year ago. Couldn't pass up the price for the condition of the saw. It wasn't until June this year that I had 220V in the shop to use it. It is great...

I can get some cherry and mulberry for picking it up. Freshly cut. What to make out of it, and when?

Thought I'd share the shutter progress so far.
They are made from 1x6x14 pine boards from Menards.
The battens ripped to 4" wide.
Assembled using 5gal paint stir sticks as board spacers, and a...

It says I don't have permission to read.

Radial and axial run-out are your issues with any "by hand" fix.
I had the same problem with the impeller on my furnace flue exhaust. They wanted $85 plus shipping for another crummy impeller held...

The squirrel cage HUB is what's wallered out right?

For checking run-out on a wood lathe, any indicator will do. An expensive Starrett indicator will just make your wallet lighter. Accuracy in measurement here is not an issue, since all you are trying...

Scott pretty much called it! The ones that make her majesty happy are the ones to make!
My wife likes the narrower battens, that's what I'm making.
Since pine was her wood if choice budget-wise, I...
