    In the next couple of weeks I want to replace my deck boards and since I have never done this before, I hope some members will weigh in and give me some pointers. I will remove the original two byes and replace them with 5/4 treated boards. Wish I could afford the trex stuff but at about 30...

    Grrr-Ripper ordered! (safest way to rip thin strip off small boards)

    UPDATE - OK, you don't have to beat me with a 2x4; well, not that many times... :rotflm: I was swayed by the consensus and the missus even jumped on board for an immediate purchase when she heard it was a safety device that I was making do without. I just got a bunch of spindle blanks that...

    Pack ratting boards & cutoffs.

    Has anyone else looked at their wood pile and realized that they are a pack rat when it comes to boards and cut offs? I'm getting rid of my current wood shelves to move to a vertical storage system to save some space and I realized that I've been a pack rat when it comes to wood. Rather than...

    Hi all, I've been struggling to figure out how to cut some 4'x4' masonite panels to smaller sizes and sand the edges down so that they can be primed and used as painting canvases (up to 12"x12" and as small as 3"x3"). I've been using a standard table saw and hand sander, but it takes forever...
