For sure price this out. I thought the PODS was such a great idea until they quoted me for the move. I ended up doing the UHaul route myself when I got sticker shock. As people mentioned above their...

I had a plumber install one for me and it's a fairly easy job. I am about to do it again and on this new property I will be doing it myself. I used a utility sink and utility sink pump from HD. It's...
Thanks Mike for the input. I too don't like the lower ratings, typical overseas, good enough as long as it doesn't immediately blow up. Anyone that actually has this machine could check it would be...
Good evening guys. Trying to help a friend trouble shoot a late model Grizzly (G1066) 2 drum, drum sander. The problem I believe is the centrifugal switch on the motor and the capacitor. I'm...
I do the stanley bins as well but use the harbor freight knockoff. They are a lot cheaper and basically the same exact container. I'm not a fan of open containers for hardware as they collect dust...

Ken,
I didn't, I just wanted to take a look to see what was going on and shot some cell phone photos. The contacts look about how they should with as much use as they have had and time...

Alan,
Perhaps it's time for a new switch then. I took mine apart and saw normal signs of flash and wear for what it is and how long I have had it. From what I understand it's either the brushes,...
Robert I think your reply is a bit over the top. If he is concerned about health risks he can always purchase formaldehyde free MDF. One small project is not going to subject him to long term health...
I redid the bearings on my old powermatic 8" jointer that I restored. I decided not to go cheap on these because the high quality ones aren't much more and cheap bearings can make an entire machine...
MDF is great but should be used in great moderation. Build the cabinets out of a more reliable and stronger substrate such as birch cabinet grade plywood. I prefer pre-finished maple plywood but cost...
Well if you filled them with epoxy there is not much you can do for stain as if you had done it prior the stain wouldn't have taken well in those areas, just like if you left yellow glue. If you...
Wondering if any of you guys have issues with the electronic brake on your sliding compound miter saw? I've had it for a little over 10 years and worked it hard so this by no means surprises me, I...
I have a few signs I am looking to make for some family that are expecting :D newborn children. I love these signs, but always do them carved with my cnc router, however sometimes the stenciled look...
Yes, I always wax the table before runs of any quantity. I am sure the feeder just needs some tlc, it shouldn't be running hot. I will pick up a bottle, thanks guys.
I picked up a 1/4hp stock feeder not too long ago and tuning it up I never got around to changing the oil. I ran only about 100 linear feet through it the other day for door stock and the motor got...
Forget it, if they rub you the wrong way just walk. It's still a tough economy and I am never in a rush to buy a tool, especially a pricey one. The talks you got on not being able to sell it in the...
Looking for a source for steel screws like hinge screws. In particular #6, oval or flat head, but in different finishes, nickel, antique brass, black, brass etc.. I recall that there was a good...
600 views and 1 reply, lots of lurkers here or what?
Here is another update. I hand sanded the legs with a block to even them out. I started with 80 grit and worked up to 150, and then sanded them with a RAS with 150. I think they came out pretty...
Wow, that is incredible! Great work!
Here are some updated photos. I went through my lumber and started sorting things for the top as those are the biggest and nicest parts needed. I then milled up the rest for the rails/skirts. I...

And here are photos of what will be on top of this finished table. This is the dressing mirror I mentioned in the first post that I made last year for her.

I then took them to the belt sander and got them cleaned up as best I could. One has to be careful to not get too hasty with power tools and cedar! Patience is the game....
I think this is the first project I've posted here. I've always enjoyed other people's builds, they are all fantastic. I'm proud to be a part of a very friendly and skilled group of woodworkers.
