when you aren't lucky enough to stumble into the legendary deals that people often gloat about?
In the past, I have ordered from http://www.hardwoodstore.com/. Nothing at all wrong with them, but it would sure be nice to be able to go and look.
I am in matthews, and would prefer to stay...
I thought I would use my 14,000th post to emphasize two things that are near and dear to my heart. The Spring Picnic '09 has been a WIP by many folks on this site and should be the greatest one ever...but only if you come.
The Raffle is very important to maintaining this site's existence. So...

If anyone else wants one let me know in the next few days ..(send me a PM)....the cost is $20 plus $6.00 shipping. The boards weigh zip, so the shipping cost ought to be the same for 10 or 1...
Recently read a post with some good references for an on-line seller of shellac. Can't find that post. Can anyone point me in the right direction....please?
Hello all!
Well, I've decided that I want to install a sprinkler in my garage - just in case. My current dust collector is a Ridgid shopvac, so cleanup is a nightmare. I don't want to come home to a shell of a house because something arc'd and dust caught fire.
Anyway - I have everything I...

I'm going to order a switch (for my table saw) from Grizzly and the shipping is almost as much as the switch. So, I figured I'd pick up a few other things while I'm at it. Any suggestions (under $50)? Do they have any good pen making kits/mandrels/etc or jig/fixture type things that I can't live...
Only a few posts on here, but I have an opinion question.
I only a few projects under my belt, but a few lined up. Since I don't own a planer and am just starting out, I've limited myself to working with dimensioned lumber from big box stores.
Here's the question: I've found a good deal...

My parents are building a log home (www.capefearloghomes.com) and I am trying to find them some hardwood flooring. They are in Atkinson NC (close to wilmington) but they could have it shipped if cheap. They are looking for basic rugged hardwood. They want it to be solid 3/4inch. But between the...
So, not sure how to phrase this question - but here it goes, it's certainly worth the shot.
This musical instrument refurb I'm working on - I need to make 30 - 35 tuning pegs of 3 different sizes - I'd like to turn them using a rigged up duplicator on a small mini / midi-lathe. Right now I'm...
Just setting up my first shop. Yippee. 57 years in the making--if you know what I mean. Want to go with well made and reliable equipment. Read where Laguna makes a really good bandsaw. Where can one see these and purchase in the Raleigh area?
I have visited WoodCraft in Raleigh, but they...
