    Table saw opinions

    This is not directed towards anyone, but I always find it odd that everyone is always pushing the sawstop. With the reasoning it’s cheaper than a hospital bill. But what about all your other shop tools bandsaw planners routers shapers. All of which have no flesh sensing technology. Do you...

    Need Carpenters Help

    Up to the 9' ceiling or not?

    Well guys...I need some guidance about a well. I am feeling quite defeated.

    Just to clarify did you replace wire and piping or reuse existing. I would take pipe apart at well casing pull it up about ten feet and turn it on to see if it pumps water.

    If you can shrink your cabinets on the right of the refrigerator you could add a pantry like these examples. 9 inch depth floor to ceiling would give you quite a bit of storage.

    Spraying cabinet doors

    White cabinet doors.

    What finish are you using. Most shops would be using double refined mdf for the panel. That’s what I use for flat panel doors. As long as the door is flat and smooth before primer I usually just need a light block sand. If I have a lot to do I will put a soft backing pad on the RO and use it...
