Purchased the dust collector at the same time as the CNC and therefore it's also like new. Ran it only when testing the CNC...

    Rough oak lumber for sale $1 per linear foot

    Hi all, We've decided to sell our house so I have a bunch of cleanup to do and one of the first things is selling off my "practice" lumber. These boards are from a couple oaks that I was given and I paid to have them milled. I am only looking to recoup my costs from milling so I am only asking...

    Oak lumber for sale $2 per linear foot

    I have a stack of Pin Oak and a stack of White Oak lumber that came from two trees my folks had cut down. I had the trees milled for a cheaper source of lumber that I could mainly use for practicing various techniques. It's not lumber mill quality, but there are some good pieces and if you need...

    Mold or something else?

    Last year my folks had a couple trees cut down and I had someone mill them for me. I sealed the ends but that's all. After a couple months, I noticed the discoloration you can see in the picture. First guess is it's mold of some kind. That the case or is this something else?

    Closing in lean-to

    My shop has a lean-to down one side and around the back. I want to close off all or 2/3rds of the back to store a small tractor and other yard tools. You can probably see in the pictures that the lean-to on the side is concreted, but the back is just gravel. I am not planning to insulate the...

    Sealing and storing logs

    My folks just had some trees taken down and I want to keep a few of the trucks. What's a good product to seal the ends with? I have a covered shelter behind my shop where I will store them but do I also need to keep them off the ground?

    Miter saw VS Radial arm saw

    I have to admit that I've never really looked into radial arm saws. For whatever reason, I thought they weren't very useful as other tools. Well, I just inherited an old Craftsman RAS and while looking through the manual I really had a feeling of "wow, didn't know a RAS could do that!". It seems...

    How would you build this?

    So my sister-in-law saw a table that she wants me to recreate... attempt to at least. My first thought on this is steaming and bending smaller individual pieces into the C shape and then join them and veneer the whole thing. The only other idea is to cut the corners from larger stock and attach...

    Help with wiring setup for dust collector

    Hi all, I am trying to set up the circuit I need for my dust collector. It requires 240v and pulls 19A. I've installed a dual pole 240v 30A breaker and run 10/2 wire. However, the only outlet I could find was rated at 20A. Since the tool pulls 19A I thought is best to have a 30A circuit. The...

    Help me decide - Grizzly G0656PX or G0490X jointer

    Been looking at jointers from Jet and Grizzly for several days (sparked by the Jet sale) and I am really leaning towards a Grizzly machine. Comparing the G0656PX and G0490X, I don't see many differences, the biggest is the method for adjusting the table. The 0656PX has handwheels, while the...

    Recommendations on finishing OVRX flooring

    Hi all, I just finished putting down the barricade OVRX sub flooring. I wanted to put hardwoods on top of that, but the budget won't allow for that right now. So I am thinking I'd like to seal and stain it. I want to go with a darker stain so that debris and sawdust show up better. Right now, I...

    Advice needed on hand planing a tabletop

    The 20th is my last day at work (being laid off) and I am using this opportunity to spend more time in the shop and hopefully grow my skills beyond a hobbyist. One of the first assignments from my wife is a dining room table. She saw a very simple, country style table made from pine and she...

    Plywood source in Durham?

    I am looking for a place in (around) Durham to get some better plywood than the stuff Lowe's carries. I only buy a couple full sheets every few months and I sometimes need it cut or the option to buy half sheets. Any recommendations? Thanks! Dave
