    Veritas 24" twin screw vise vs. dead man??

    Ok, I know some of you have the Veritas 24" twin screw vise; so is the assumption true that unless you are trying to support an entire tree that a dead-man becomes unnecessary? I know the official answer is "it depends" but give me some context as to what you have successfully secured vs...

    Dead Oak

    We have an old oak tree that was struck by lighting about 8 months ago on our church property and died. Our pastor wants it cut down before mother nature knocks it down herself and destroys buildings. I was wondering if the tree would still be good to saw into lumber? The tree is about 6...

    A Curious Dead Link

    I had a meeting today with the Board of Directors of the Western NC Woodworkers Association and heard from one of our joint members here that the website for Woodworks Events is not working. It isn't our link that is bad; their website at http://www.woodworksevents.com is not responding. I...

    What is this and is it dead?

    I noticed a couple of weeks ago that an unruly shrub on my shared property line had dropped probably 95% of it's leaves. Upon looking closer I noticed it was covered in "spots". So I have a couple of questions. Pics below for identification. 1) What the heck is it? 2) What the heck is on it...

    Dead or desirable? Non-functional DC

    My Delta 1hp DC seems to have coughed it's last. After a few weeks of whiny noises when it spun down, it now refuses to spin up. It's only an AP400, but I threw the money into it to upgrade to the 5micron bag. My thought is that the impeller and bag might be worth $40 to someone, but wanted to...

    Bosch 1617VS Dead?

    Well, yesterday I was using it and today it won't start. It's the Bosch 1617 variable speed model. Honestly, it sounded slightly different yesterday (but I told myself it was just my hearing) ... and then today, nothing. Not even an attempt. So ... do I take it somewhere and try to get it...

    It's dead!

    I only had it 30 years, I don't understand why it had to quit on me. So, I'm looking at Bosch and Milwaukee hand drills. Any other I should look at? I don't want batteries, I just need a drill for around the shop, high torque stuff, drilling steel, driving tons of screws, drilling big...
