    Are there no machine/welding shops in your area? Seems like something a decent machine shop would be able to do. It's been 30 years since I had any involvement spray welding. What I recall was the...

    Following your project closely. So at this time you don't have the ability to "index" if you were wanting to do some sort of fluting? Basically at the moment the 4th axis is just a rotary spindle on...

    I don't know if they always have but the Rockler vises now have "Rockler" cast in the handle casting. It's visible in the photo. Woodcraft has an identical looking vise as well.

    Looks like they knew what they were doing. Cast iron has to be flooded with coolant to or it will do ugly things when grinding. As Cameron said wax it now and enjoy.

    The way I read it and how I have always understood it is it is all blended at the distribution point. This says the additives are blended at the terminal. From your link.

    I had to put rear brakes on my 2014 Silverado last summer at about 99,000. Fronts are still original at 103,000. I sometimes pull a two axle car trailer. Less than 5,000 miles of the total though.

    The article shows if you have a BMW M5 then some form of premium is probably required. But it's basically a street legal race car at $130,000. Funny the F150 showed significant differences when fuel...

    While premium is recommended in my torch red mid life crisis two seater it does just fine on an 87 octane 10% ethanol blend. What I find most impressive is that if I drive it without having to feel...

    Obviously regulations differ on this side of the big muddy. Steel hasn't been allowed here since 2008. Only fiberglass. I can't find the info on steel now but I think nothing can be in use any longer...

    I never said bad gas can't happen. I said it's not likely to be a rusty tank issue and sediment stirred up during a tanker filling the tank. Maybe steel tanks are still common where you are.

    I would suggest in most places and at least where I am you won't find a steel underground tank still in use at a gas station. Just last year a station completely redid their tanks and gas islands...

    We will see what happens after the ruling and what happens to the numbers of incidents. While they should all be less severe, will the overall number go up, down or remain the same.

    Is there any adjustment when I replace it or does so I just reverse the procedure?[/QUOTE]

    Just reverse the removal procedure. The head weighs several pounds so be careful. I don't recall anything...

    It's a DJ-20 parallelogram jointer so no shimming to be done. I'm pretty sure you can only access them by removing the cutterhead. Good opportunity to add a helical head. Cameron is correct that...

    I don't think you can access them without removing the cutterhead. You can try Richards suggestion. Move the fence to the middle so you can get at both ends. Use a piece of maple or similar tight...

    It's only going to get worse too. A friend told me today he sold 700 steers for slaughter Friday for the highest price he's ever gotten. $1.91 per pound. Wait a few months for that to make it's way...
