    YouTube Woodworking

    Does anyone watch the woodworking people who post on YouTube for new project ideas? What is your favorite? Also if you do why does the PVA white glue used in some foreign countries look like the icing for cinnamon rolls?

    My experience with a Tormek. PLEASE READ

    Help with my workbench

    I was very fortunate that my Uncle gave me an old table he has had for years. It is 84" x 36" x 1 3/4" thick solid maple. As it is now it is way too low for me as a woodworking workbench and I am vertically challenged. My call for help is, should I scrap the whole base and legs and build a...
