OK Thank you. I guess I didn't know what I was looking at. I can see that, with the side open like this, you don't need to do much to clear the chips.

Looks like a nice easy to build plane, and the results speak for them selves. My question is: how are the shavings cleared from the groove? The design doesn't seem to leave any place for them to...
5 liters of water weighs 5 kg, and at 2.2 lb per kg makes it 11 pounds.
This is a cool design, but I am curious as to what it can do that a screw type vice can't.
I would have been, but I ordered 2 blades just last week. :rolleyes:
Looks like a great place to store her new green belt.
Yes I do have a 17" Grizzly bandsaw. I was tempted to order a 132" blade, but at over $200, it is an experiment that I decided no to try. Have you done this?
Thanks for the info about the...
Thanks I will call them. It is amazing to me that they haven't fixed the order form. I'm a software developer not a web page designer, but I know I could make it work within an hour or two.
Thank you for your quick replies. I tried the Laguna web site and it would not let me enter 131 1/2 inches into the order form. 130" or 132" are allowed, but not 132.5" :confused:. I guess I will...
I did a Google search and I can’t find ANYBODY who sells the Resaw King bandsaw blade in this length. I have seen good reviews for this blade and I would like to try it, but it seems nobody sells on...
Love the box, the handles, not so much.
The Workbench Book by Scott Landis has a short chapter on benches for luthiers.
I did this on the front door of my house, and it works great. It has been 3 years on a West facing door with no sign of a problem. I used a high quality exterior grade oil base paint. Different...
You can use this to draw a circular arc through any three points.
Layout the points that you want the curve to pass through A, B, and C
lay out the two straight edges as shown and tape or...
Beautiful wood with a really nice finish and the craftsmanship looks first rate. The base seems a bit too massive for the box to my eye. I did a quick Photoshop morph where I made the box look...
That is an interesting design. My thought about the wedges is that they will work, but not as well as you would like. It reminds me of an arts and crafts bookcase that I did a year or so ago. In...
I have never tried one, but Lynx claims to make a hand made saw with a tapered plate. They can be purchased at Woodcraft, and Traditional Woodworker.
Ash has many of the properties that make a good bench top, and the price is less than most other hard woods. That being said, however, I feel that a ring porous wood like ash is not the best choice...
The part of the bench that takes the most abuse is the front edge, so I would use hard maple for this part of the bench. For the rest of the top I would use a less expensive material. Soft maple is...
This is a very nice bed. The two woods look great together.
I agree about the grain in the headboard. After looking at it for a minute I had the same thought as you, so I did some photo editing...
They look just like some that I got from a Low's store. I use them for wood storage, and they are very sturdy.
Lea Vally also sells them.
The first photo looks like a tool used by a draftsman to sharpen the lead in a mechanical pencil.
I called Suffolk Machinery and talked to one of there techs and he told my that this kind of problem can result from a bad weld or improper camber in the steel of the blade. Improper camber means...
Thank you everyone for your help.
Justin; I did notice that the blade almost jumped off of the tire when I turned it by hand before starting the machine, but it did settle down to a regular...
Will,
I got the blade from Grizzly. I did call them and they have sent a new blade, but they didn't know what was causing the problem.
Justin, The blade is tracking back and forth on the...
