Regarding the comments that you should not check a square with a square and the only way to check for square is flip and mark.

oh.... I thought I posted this in Lumber Yard.
I have been looking for some pristine highly figured walnut. Nothing locally. The one picture was something that sold online before I could inquire. Not sure of the price. The other picture is on...
I do "stand with Alex Snodgrass" when it comes to the concept that if you have a miter slot on a bandsaw, the fence (and blade) should be parallel to the miter slot.... meaning you should not adjust...
You are EXACTLY like me. Historically more of a power tool woodworker, now beginning to appreciate the value of being better with hand tools and sharpening, and with limited available shop time. I...
Thanks for the information. I went and read your interesting combination square series. It seems like the very vintage ones are of interest for collector purposes, but the Starrett is what you...

So much for the early bird gets the worm LOL. If you ever decide to sell, please let me know. I will pay you well...
I tried to find this discussed. Once upon a time, I purchased a few Makika "D" handle routers which were fairly stable and not too prone to tilting. I used them with the Keller jig and clamping...
I can't be sure, but I believe Derek posted a picture of his gauge made by Kinshiro and it was discontinued. I have been mostly a power tool woodworker, and am developing more of an interest in hand...
Not sure where you live, but my suggestion is that you try to visit the shops of a couple of people who have sliders vs Unisaw type table saws, track saws and miter saws. I learn a LOT when I visit...
Are you going to come home from work and and put it to the test on curly maple ... or are you going to come home, flatten the back of the blade to a nice mirror finish so your wife can see how shiny...
Check with John Teneyck. He makes a shooting board that can do everything. Do a search for Universal Shooting board.
Are these for sale?
I just came across this video. I thought sure, the Kangaroo strop sounded interesting and I saw a link for purchase. Sold out! No option to buy. Guess Kangaroo is popular!
If you can see the saw or a similar saw where you have a tape measure in hand, you can get a good idea. This is what I have done when re-configuring. For sure you need to have room for the wood and...
I previously had good luck with figured walnut at Austin on several occasions and on one occasion at the Anaheim Ball Road and on one occasion at Hudson and West at Torrance. I was seeking figured...
Thanks, but I am not having luck reaching Japan Tool. I get multiple error messages that make no sense when I try to contact using the form, and I have no direct email address. Appreciate the...
Thank you.
Looking for refurbished in outstanding condition. Thank you
As an alternative to the standard drill press for woodworking, I prefer the radial drill press. I think it would be easier to use for woodworking than a mill with a nice ability to drill far from...
Also, there are less expensive options than the VinGardeValise, but not sure if the inserts are removable in sections. Of course you can always make custom inserts with Kaizen Foam
One thing about the beautiful storage boxes Derek posted is that while they nicely organize the tools, are beautiful, and demonstrate what can be accomplished with the tools in there right hands,...
I once had a Delta Unisaw, and I now have both a slider with pneumatic clamps and a Festool track saw. If you ask me will the track saw replace my table saw ---- NO. However, that is because I have...
Any updated recommendations on plug cutters? I see Amana and Montana and CMT are possible choices now as "best plug cutter". I have some old Fullers, but not sure if the newer offerings offer some...
"Refuse to stain? Im sorry mamme I cant make this piece to match your Beidermeyer furniture cause I dont stain. Restoration work usually has to match perfectly. Nailing stuff not easy thing at times....
I recently sold my 20 inch mint condition Agazzani back to Jesse at Eagle-Tools in So Cal. He was the one who sold it to me. I parted with it to make room for a Yates vintage bandsaw, but if space...
