    Rip-Offs continue

    It would seem the American system of IP is working as designed. It's nice to see that happen every so often. The original inventor has enjoyed a period of exclusivity, thereby avoiding normal market forces. Now, with the inventor's investment repaid and wealth and riches secured, the citizens...

    Table Saw Throat Plate

    I'm sure others are far more talented or lucky but every gap, hole, void, ridge etc. in a throat plate is where an off-cut will get caught up. That's no bueno.

    LATHE CHISELS?

    "Find a box" has been a bigger challenge than expected. The missus says there will be two boxes arriving today, one of which should work. If not, is it ok if I just toss the crummy wooden display box and send the tools wrapped individually? (That may impact future portability.)

    Shelix Order from Byrd - 7 months and waiting

    Sounds like Byrd also may be running afoul of the"30-day Rule." This has all the sounds of a company circling the drain. Start working to get your money back - directly or through your credit card. https://www.findlaw.com/smallbusiness/business-operations/laws-governing-shipping-advertising.html

    End Grain Glue Joints Are Weaker, Right?

    A couple years ago I was able to reconcile "joint strength" and "glue strength" and "end grain/side grain" debates in my head by concluding, "If you use proven techniques you don't need to worry about this stuff." That quieted the voices in my head. End grain to end grain is strong enough to...
