What can I say other than WOW!

Jim,

Those plans seem to require lots of metal work an custom cut metal parts. The beauty of buildyourcnc methods are that it can be built with hand tools. If you watch the videos of the older...

I have been looking at his site as well. I am making a sketchup model similar to his Blacktoe. The AL rails will be replaced with steel and i do not like the X-Axis mechanism altogether.

I...

If I remember correctly, you send Jackie a PM and let her know when you make the donation and the name on the donation. She can then match you up. This has happened to a few here in the past few...

I did the exact same thing when I was in charge of the Pinewookd Derby. All the Dads had an absolute blast. We too only had a weight limit. Anything else was fair game. One of the items that robs...

I see sources for this all the time in industrial quanities. Try looking at Grainger or McMaster-Carr. They will typically have this is the material handling and/gasket sections.

Good Luck!

The thread is related to what type of WWer you are and how you got into it (at least that is the intent). So please share! :D

Many of use...

Happy New Year!

Yes...that means I want in also!

Count me in as well!

This is really a two part question.

The first is related to a set of chisels that I bought a long time ago. They are Craftsman (don't shoot me!) and have always worked well. However, I am...

Micheal,

If you are wired for 3 phase already, then that is typically the best options. You get lower amperages, smaller wires and I believe better eff on the motor itself.

Okay, I know nothing about the machines you are interested in. However, I have spent 12 years designing compressors and other machinery. Look at the Hp ratings for "Power to Power" comparison. ...

Micheal,

I am confused. Horsepower is Horsepower no matter how it is supplied. It seems that you have converted the Euro's to Hp so you have the numbers in front of you already. So am I...

Yep...especially the PRICE!!!!:)

Joe,

Let me be the first to welcome you to the Creek. This is a fantastic place to learn alot and save alot of $$ too! :D I would suggest that you post this question in the Design Forum. That...

1985 Unisaw....so my rudimentary math skills say that it's 22 years old. However, I just got it last FRIDAY! Although its in great shape, I have plans..oh how I have plans :D

Okay guys...the rain caught me. No matter how much tarping I did, my new Unisaw top is soaking wet. What now? There is a Woodcraft right down the street. Any suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!

Lou,

I will have to say that is the most well built sub-panel that I have seen in home construction. Normally you only see the squared off grouped wiring in well made industrial stuff!...

John,

Well, I am picking up my Unisaw today. :D Now if I can just find a place to use it, I will be all set!
