Hello Andrew. Ultimately, yes, the white paint and drywall brightened up the space. Having a more organized space helped a lot too!

Thanks Glenn! I find myself reading old shop notes articles for hours looking for new storage solutions. I think I enjoy organizing as much as making furniture!
Thanks for your pics, I really need...
Hello Everyone. I spent the last year making some updates to my basement shop that I wanted to share. I have a small space that was really dark so I drywalled the area and painted everything white. I...
This looks great Curtis! I can't wait to see the rest of the furniture for the room.
Looks Great Robert! I was given the same directive last year to build a similar table. The only problem I ran into was finding the turnbuckles. Where did you end up buying them from?
Awesome! By far one of the best I've seen.
I agree, sifting through old magazines can be cumbersome. I've found an online membership to fww to be very helpful. All articles and videos are easily accessible on my iPad.
Great Job Chris!!!
I find of all the things to make for Christmas gifts, cutting boards are the most fun. I'm sure your cutting boards will be the topic of conversation for the day.
Great job.
Grant,
I think I got it...make sure I use BORG WB PU PRODUCTS!
Only kidding, than you for your advice. Learning through other people's mistakes is priceless. I'll try and post pics when I'm done....
Thanks for the tips!
After reading your advice and doing some more research, I think I will sand with 60, 80, and 100 grit. Then stain, and 3 coats of water based poly.
I think I feel more...
Hello,
My basement floor is about 25 years old. It is a parquet pattern and in pretty good shape, but as you can imagine, the topcoat is completely gone.
I am planning on refinishing the floors...
Excellent job Ron...and very unique! Do you mind sharing your finishing process, you seem to have a very uniform finish.

Dave,

Joe,
Check the most recent issue of WOOD Magazine. There is a test done of most, if not all, 1.5-2hp dust collectors for hobby shops.

Hello,
I recently started a similar thread, however, I was comparing the penn state to the wynn. My question is, why do the manufacturers even sell bags on their DC's that are higher than 5 micron?...
Hey guys,
I was concerned about the filter fitting into the DC as my diameter is 20". I did check out the site and noticed alot of owners created donuts to fit their larger diameters but I'm not...
Yeah, I looked at Wynn and have heard of difficulties contacting PSI. I decided not to purchase the Wynn because the largest diameter they offer is 17.5". I need a 20" diameter to fit my DC.

Hey Jeff,
I like the vanity and the counter top! I think the whole project was very creative and you should be proud of that work. I know plenty of people that can't even pour a slab of concrete...

Thanks for you responses! I guess I will search for an adaptor to fit my router first, if that doesn't work I will try a new router. Chris, do you find the power sufficient on the Craftsman?

Hello,
Does anyone know if the porter cable dovetail jig is only compatible with porter cable routers? I have a hitachi router and the template protection guide does not fit my router base. I need...
Hey Gary, what do you use for your backdrop in your photo? It is a very good color to photograph wood.

James,
Very good work. I really like the corner table. You did a wonderful job with the measurements on the bottom shelf, they seem to fit very snug. That is one area that I always struggle with at...
Hello Marc,

However, I own both the ridgid planer and 6" jointer and they have performed wonderfully for me! I have been woodworking for a...
