    Opinions on Worksharp WS3000

    I recently saw this http://www.worksharptools.com/ in Workbench magazine and was wondering if it's as good as they claim. It's made by the same company that makes the Drill Doctor. For $200 it doesn't look too bad....Any comments, pro or con? Thanks for any help, Randy

    Quandary - Opinions needed (gloat or not)

    Long story, bare with me. Built a big (10' long) plank top bench a few years ago from a plan I saw in ShopNotes. Now that the wood disease has got me bad, I realized I needed a more functional bench and more room for tools. I kind of thought my neighbor and good friend had his eye on it for a...

    Air filter opinions wanted

    I have decided that it is time to get an air filter to help reduce the dust in my shop. I use a dust collector, but the fine dust that escapes it is starting to become a problem. I have noticed that I am getting more frequent sinus infections, and my wife says I snore more than I used to...

    Opinions needed

    This pic is the latest shot of my new shop addition. I've decided to put a porch on the left side. The right addition is 14 ft and the porch will be 10 ft. Which would look better, to tie the porch roof in at the same height as the right side or use the same slope and tie in lower?

    Looking for opinions on this Delta table saw

    While doing some mindless surfing on the web, I came across this package deal at Tool King. It looks to be a pretty good bargain, but I'd like to hear my fellow members' opinions on the saw and this deal. Total freight costs would be $87 including liftgate fee for residential delivery. If you...

    Hitachi M12V2 Opinions...

    Does anyone here own and use the newer Hitachi M12V2 3-1/4 router? I'd like to know if it is suited for use in a router table. It is on sale at Amazon.com today for $159.99 with free shipping. Since I don't have a lift, I am concerned how easer/difficult height adjustment is in a table. Michael

    Ryobi BT3000 Series Miter Slot Add-ons -- Any opinions

    While I dream of the day that I get to buy a more serious tablesaw, I currently own a Ryobi BT3000. While it has its limitations, it has been very useful over the last six years. Of course, it cannot really take advantage of a lot of jigs and such that rely on the miter slots in standard...
