    Router Sled Update (with pics now)

    Well, like I said, cold or not, got me some shop time in today. When you put on the polypro thermals, wool cap, and Gore Tex gloves just to do a little woodworking, you're either determined or not too bright.:jealous: Oh well, been waiting long enough and had to go for it.

    Policy Statement Update

    Per the telconference last night, I updated the North Carolina Woodworker Policy to inlude "Illegal activites of any type" in the list of Prohibited topics. IMHO, we should allow a thread reporting on illegal exploitation of rain forest lumber, but not one on "Hallucinogenic Woods" or...

    Spindle Sander rebuild - Update #1

    I was able to disassemble the spindle mechanism down to just the spindle socket with its seized spindle which made it much easier to take to a local machine shop. For $25 he heated it up nice and hot and put a REALLY BIG WRENCH on it and successfully separated the two parts!!!! Spindle socket...

    My Dewalt DW618 Router Croaked! Update, Fixed Under Warranty!

    :BangHead::crossedlips::wsad: I got the DW618PK 3 base kit 2 or 3 years ago when Mark at HDT had a few for ~$120, a fantastic deal. 90% of my routing I do with the Bosch 1613 in the router table. I doubt if the Dewalt has 3 hours run time, all hand held, heck it's never been dusty! I started...
