    Brief review of iGauging Snap Depth gauge

    Picked up one of these from Hartville Tool this week ($15 with free shipping) and had a chance to play around with it a bit today. It is designed for measuring the depth of dadoes, rabbets. It measures in metric and inches with an optional fractional display mode (shown): It comes with 1" and...

    Makita UC4030A review

    My killer requirement for a chainsaw was to be quiet enough for use in my neighborhood. That pretty much rules out gas chainsaws. When I looked for reviews online there were not many positive reviews for electric chainsaws. Most seem pretty cheap. Many have problems with the gears stripping...

    Review - new safety glasses

    About 4 weeks ago I had cataract surgery on my "second" eye and the results are good. Both eyes are now corrected with lens implants to give me good distance vision without glasses although I will need external correction for close work. This means that I can finally purchase low cost safety...

    Charlotte Show Review

    I took a long lunch and went down to the show today. NCWW has a nice set up. I got to meet ScottM and saw Gotcha along with several other folks. I won't name them all cause I'm sure I'll miss some. One thing to note is the layout isn't what I saw posted earlier, also it is in Freedom Hall...

    Delta 7670 / Dewalt H7200 8" stacked dado set review

    Back in the mid 90s, I bought my first dado set - the Freud SD306 Safety Dado set. IIRC, I paid around $125 at the time, on sale. I've used it occasionally throughout the years and have always been pleased with the performance. My only complaint was the little bat-ear corners where the outer...

    Positive vendor review

    Just FYI. I ordered 2 Norton grinding wheels from Sharpening Supplies.com this week. They had the lowest price I could find on the web, even after including shipping. Once I placed the order, they were very good about keeping me updated on the status. The order arrived this morning, almost...

    Review of Carter Accuright Log Mill

    As a fledgling turner, I am always collecting promising looking logs when I see them on the side of the road. My problem is turning them into blanks. I dislike ripping logs with a chainsaw, so I decided to give the Carter Accuright Log Mill a try. So far I love it! It holds the log firm even...

    Mini-Tool Review Veritas Low-Angle Bevel Up Jack plane

    I said I wouldn't, but then I did. Went looking for that Narex Chisel deal at Lee Valley and ran out of $$ before I got 'em. Happy Birthday to me!! Came away with this: As you can see, I added a couple irons so it could be all that it could be, and besides, they will also fit the wooden...

    Book Review: The Workbench Design Book / Schwarz

    I ordered Christopher Schwarz's latest tome, The Workbench Design Book: The Art & Philosophy of Building Better Benches, and I just finished reading it a couple of days ago, so I thought I'd share. First off, I did something I rarely do with woodworking books. I read it from cover-to-cover...

    Review - Lousy Websites

    I guess I'm getting grouchy in my old age, but internet websites are really ticking me off lately. It seems you can't find a place on the screen to park your cursor without some window popping up giving you totally useless information that you didn't ask for in the first place. Sometimes little...

    For Immediate Review, Three Strike Policy

    This is the proposed three strike policy I would like to post and put in place prior to creating a new off topic forum: I think I remember the BOD asking to see the policy before I posted it. I spent almost four hours on the phone that night so it is kinda running together. And, yeah it is...

    iPad review for Woodworking

    I was given both Fine Wood Working and Wood Magazine on DVD as a gift during the last 2 Christmas. I really like the magazines but do not want to sit in front of the computer to read them. I wanted to find a way to read them when I travel so I loaded a few up on my Kindle. The Kindle is great...

    Mini book review: More Woodworkers Essentials

    Just got done reading this, at least what I could absorb of it. This is a sequel to Woodworkers Essentials which I have not read yet. I have read probably 20-25 woodworking books since becoming interested in the subject, and this is by far the most technical. The author is a retired organic...

    Review of the Dale Nish demo

    Due to the wonderful weather of Friday night only Andy (CarvedTunes) and I made it to dinner. From there we headed to NCSU. Dale Nish put on a wonderful turning demo and lecture. For those who do not know of him many folks consider him the father of modern day wood turning. He has taught...
