    Goodwill Lathe is up and running

    First, Thanks to NCWoodworker for the opportunity! I had a piece of Ash left over from a set of table legs I made so I decided my first go on the lathe would be a bat. It is not to any dimensions, just from what it seems like a bat should look like. Boy can you make a mess quick with a...

    Attic fan for filtration?

    I have free access to a cheap attic fan similar to this one from HD as my dad replaced his with a solar unit. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Ventamatic-1300-CFM-Power-Attic-Ventilator-Gable-Mount-CX1500UPS/202913798#.Ue0pLtId6rZ I was thinking that I could turn it into a filtration unit for fine...

    Opinions wanted - Stacked rail and stile router bits?

    Just wanted to hear from people who have used the stacked rail and stile bits. I have not, but it seems like the combination of economical advantages along without the need to switch bits seems like it might be a good option for me. Here is an example of what I am looking at: To elaborate...

    Free wood plane - no blade

    Picked this up at a garage sale a few years back thinking I would try to get a new iron for it and I just don't think I ever will. Before it becomes firewood, would any of you want it? I'm in Holly Springs. The chisel was the closing thing at hand to give it scale.
