Over the years of collecting tools and woodworking supplies, I have ususlly resorted to giving Woodcraft a very good shot. However each and every time I engage the retailer, I find myself more and...
I'd feel proud sitting on those. ;)
Good thoughts. I did tighten the tailstock down pretty good to make sure it was safe. Maybe I went to far. I will also try not to overtighten the belt.

Thanks for all your suggestions guys. I am also leaning towards the 20" as to add a spiral cutterhead in the future is not much more than buying it now. Also, the "knife" cutterhead on my jointer...
I have heard some rant about the ability to plane boards after glue up. Hence the benefit of the wider planer. It would be so nice to have 20" of room, I just hate giving away the nice cutterhead.
I have found the desire to replace my 12in Delta breadbox planer with at least a 15 inch stationary planer. However I am torn between the two planers:
15" with spiral cutterhead:...
The feet are great for kitchen counters to prevent it sliding around while cutting.
My neighbor saved me a bunch of $$ by helping me put a set of brakes on my car. I decided to pay him back with a new cutting board. I used some left over maple and walnut. If they treat it...

This afternoon I was biulding a blade holder in one of mu shop cabinets. I took dimentions off of a Freud Industrial Rip (24 Tooth) and found that it was actually 9.75 inches in diameter, not 10...
Chris,
Go to HD and get a longer cord. Depending on how many AMPS your Table saw runs, be sure to buy a cord properly rated. A 12/3 cord so work fine for amperage ratings up to 20. 10/3 will...
Any other methods besides branding. I have heard of methods using permenant pens. Anyone use this method?
