I need to get some thick foam, the type that is used in cushions and upholstery. We need it for a sleeping compartment on our boat. The v-berth has custom shaped cushions but they are very thin and uncomfortable, so we would like to look into getting some nice thick foam that we could make into...
Last year - Around Sept.I got together a group buy on some bottle stoppers and alot of the guys here got in on it - I mentioned that I would try and get another one up around March/April - This is where we ordered them from for ll of the new members here http://www.torne-lignum.com/stoppers.htm...
In the coming months I will be doing some laminating, and another North Carolina Woodworker member and I have discussed buying one/half to a gallon or so of contact cement and sharing it.
This item seems pretty expensive in the hardware store or the BORG's. Can anybody suggest the best place...
This is the best deal I have found:
http://antiquesupply.com/products/GOLDEN_S_PURE_TUNG_OIL_5_GL-3279-549.html
I emailed them and it is about $23 to ship, no tax in NC, so it is slightly over $38 a gallon.
Locally, it is about $55 a gallon plus tax.
Any interest?

Well, I have been thinking about this for a long time now. I kept waiting till the time was "right". As you can tell, that time never arrived. I have been monitoring CL for months now but nothing has jumped out at me. I was at Klingspor's last weekend and saw their Rikon 12x16. The price...

Buying a new lathe with a different spindle size has put me at a crossroads with my old Grizzley chuck. While it's been a good one for the price, I can see a few issues with it that I don't want to have repeated in the next one I buy.
Without giving too much information about what I think is...
I noticed Carolina Lumber Sourcing had a new entry for Curly Maple and called. Gwen is quoting me $2.80/bf for 4/4 Curly, kiln dried, surfaced 15/16, 1Com & Btr. This is not quite as clear as the earlier load but the curl is just as nice in the photo she sent:
I will be ordering mine...
