    Cyclone Talk, Again

    For the past 5 years I've been running a Jet 1100 dust collector in my hobby shop, and in that time I've tossed around "when" I'm going to upgrade to a cyclone system with better fine dust collection. Well, I'm back at it again ... :eusa_thin Cyclone talk has become similar to a religious, or...

    Let's Talk Flush Cutting Bits

    I understand the concept of a top bearing (hand held router) and bottom bearing (router table), and those bits with both a top and bottom bearings. What befuddles me is the bit diameter. :dontknow:Whether the diameter is 1/4" or 3/4", it will still trim flush. :eusa_thin Are the wider...

    BIG Lathe Talk

    Now I'm dreaming a bit here, but it's hot on my mind ... so I wanted to see what talk could be generated about some of the BIG lathes ... in particular the OneWay 2000 and Powermatic 3520B. Both look like beautiful offerings, but is the OneWay worth a few thousand more $$$$? Anyone have both...

    Let's talk about Circular Saws

    All my life I've used circular saws that were "right-bladed." By that I mean that from the back of the saw, the motor is on the left and the blade on the right. And for the most part I use the guide on the plate to follow the cut line until I get to the end of the cut, where I have to lean...

    Routers...can we talk?

    I searched the archives for router information. From reviews on the Bosch Colt and Trend to methods and techniques. I have a Bosch 1613EVS plunge router and is a great tool for rabbits, dado's and heavy duty work. I find though that for me it's too heavy and big to do more intricate cutting...

    Talk about BarBQ!!!

    After all the post and no concrete answer, I decided to steam the pieces with worm holes. 210 degrees for 5 hours should penetrate 1/2" (half the largest diameter of the pieces) and kill anything that "might" be in there. Time will tell!!! A couple pics will show the steamer-------if I got...
