    This is Scott Smith's fault

    No problem.. careful what you wish for though, considering our relative professions. Scott->tools, Brian->root canals.... :D

    This is Scott Smith's fault

    That's a Pinnacle Premium Coping Sled. I picked it up from the classifieds here a year or two ago, it didn't work well for what I had in mind at the time but is perfect for this so it's no longer collecting dust.

    This is Scott Smith's fault

    At least that's what I'm telling my wife when she gets back to town.... I was talking to Scott last week about getting a shaper vs. building a decent router table. What he said made a lot of sense (usually does), this is the result. Seems like whenever my wife goes out of town I spend a lot...

    looking for a source for vaneer?

    Check ebay- last time I looked (though it has been a while) there was a broad selection available in small quantities.

    Charlotte CL - Rikon 25-200 12" jointer planer $1300

    FWIW I have this jointer\planer, and have been pretty happy with it. The fence is kind of flimsy but otherwise no complaints. Takes up very little floor space for it's capacity, but don't mistake it for a long bed jointer, that it ain't.

    Best tool to sand complex rounded over plywood edge?

    Maybe a flutter sander? It's more or less the same thing as a sanding mop but if a dedicated machine is an option for you I imagine it would be a lot easier to use. If that is an option, there's a couple of them available in an auction ending tomorrow in High Point on IRSAustions.com. They're...

    Walker Turner TS on Raleigh CL

    This looks like junk to me, but the "old iron" crowd seems to get a bit glassy-eyed when Walker Turner comes up, so maybe someone will want this: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/tls/2327442683.html

    Drill press

    +1 on the PM2800. Agree w\ all above, and the ability to adjust speed on the fly is one of those things that once you try it you'll never go back to changing belts. The only complaint I have is the depth stop is kind of primitive and a nuisance to adjust. If a similar Delta, Rikon, etc has...

    I'm in for 50 sheets or $100 worth, whichever is less.

    Drum sanders

    I had the same problem with the paper that came with my Woodmaster- I shredded it pretty quick. I got rolls of 6" wide H&L from Klingspor's and have had MUCH better success with it. Not sure if it's because it's tougher paper than the Woodmaster or because there is a lot less edge on the paper...

    Drum sanders

    I have both the Woodmaster 18" planer\moulder\sander and Grizzly 24" dual drum sander. I picked up the Grizzly because I got tired of changing the paper then running my work through a 2nd time on the woodmster, and have absolutely no regrets from the purchase. I run 100\150 grit then takes just...

    A little gloat...

    I don't usually post gloats but thought I'd make an exception today. About a week ago I saw an ad on CL for a saw I thought I might be interested in, so I sent an inquiry. Turns out it belongs to a good friend of mine who unfortunately is closing the doors on a cabinet shop he started with a...

    Oxygen in the Shop?

    Not sure if this is feasible, but what about a CPAP machine with supplemental O2? Between the mask and the positive pressure I doubt you'll have any dust infiltration issues. Might be a little pricey, but you might be able to justify it medically and pick one up through insurance.

    Powermatic Tablesaw Motor - $600 (King,NC)

    This actually might be of real interest to the right person, as there's a 3 phase PM 68 12" table saw currently going for $175 on IRS auctions, ending tomorrow, located in Zebulon. The 68 is pretty old, but with a new motor and a tune-up you could have an extremely solid saw for a steal...

    Feed direction relative to drum rotation in drum sander

    Well- I'm glad to report a very successful fix. I got off to a bad start when I found that unfortunately the motors are cheapies made in Taiwan and are not reversible (at least not in the traditional sense). Neither the feed or main motor have a discreet controller; the starting capacitors are...
