    Sharpening gloat

    I scored a set of shapton glass stones from a guy at knifeforums.com for a great deal; the 220, 1000, 2000, 6000, 8000 and 16000 grit stones for $170 shipped. In addition to my previous score of DMT D8XX, D8C, D8F, and D8EF ($100) I should be able to get an edge :)

    A Tasty Gloat

    Being a complete sucker for gadgets, I had to get Rockler's bench cookies the day they came out. So, when they introduced the Bench Cookie Rack I am sure they knew I would be first in line. And before the naysayers come out, these really do work!!!

    Burl gloat!!!

    I receive a call today from a man that works with my brother about the possibility of making two bowls for him in exchange for this burl he had. This is a picture of the little burl. I should get more than 12 bowls from it. His estimate is that it weighs in around 600 pounds. It looks just like...

    Delta or Jet table saw? - NOW A GLOAT!

    Hi all, I am thinking about picking up a tablesaw during the woodcraft sale this weekend and was wondering if anyone had any comments on either of the two I am considering. On a fairly limited budget, so anything above $1k is really out of my range at the moment. I am looking at these...

    First Tool Gloat.

    Picked this up from the Chapel Hill Lowes for $150 (see Delta clearance thread). It was the floor model, and is missing one of the two table adjustment handles, and the safety key for the switch. For the short term, a pair of scissors works well, and I ordered the missing parts for a...
