    How long till it checks

    I felled a tree today that was in the footprint of the future workshop.:wsmile: After I cut the stump off low and even, I noticed the coloring in the grain at the stump. I want to turn some of this. I'm not sure what the wood is. :dontknow:It may be a maple. White and wet as heck. How long until...

    Long time Lurker....

    Good Day, I have been in the Raleigh area for going on 10 years now. We began building our shop when we move here.... first time I had a place to set up. I build mostly crafstman style furniture but have been known to dabble in the round on occasion. I found this sight about a year ago and...

    Resawing Long 4x6's

    O.K., I posted about some 4x6 Walnut and Cherry I grabbed off of Craigslist. I'm looking forward to getting some nice 4/4 boards and a couple of mantels out of it. Well, I've run into a 'challenge' while resawing it. I ran a 6' 8" piece thru the Rikon 10-325 last evening and it throughly whooped...

    Greene and Greene Plugs (long)

    I have developed a method for making the square plugs with crowned top that was a common feature in the furniture of Greene and Greene, and I thought that others interested in this type of furniture might find my method useful. Before I begin, I do need to give credit where credit is due. My...

I will be more than happy to expand on any of the processes if you want to give me a shout by PM or e-mail :icon_thum There are as many varied styles and...

    Long mini blind available

    Well - if you happen to be looking for a long min-blind, please contact me. I have one, with mounting hardware, that is available for free. It is 100" long and drops to cover an area about 6' in height. In good shape, as it served as the window covering for our picture window. Would work well...

    Radial-Arm Saw and Long Sleeves

    I was thumbing through some old magazines and found this amazing story in the May/June 1986 edition of Fine Woodworking. It Can Happen to You… Neoma Patterson figured her chances of survival were nil when she saw her left arm—severed by a radial-arm saw—lying on a table in front of her. But the...

    Capacitor on my Jet Mini 1014 (long)

    Just fried another capacitor on my Jet Mini 1014. This is the second one in a year. The first one I admit that I had an extension cord that was probably to light to carry the load and therefor overheated. :slap: But since then I have had the Mini plug directly into a 20-amp outlet. After...

    [Problem-Main Site] Certain pages won't load/ take too long to load

    (Note to self: In 30 or 60 days, I want to FIX these problems instead of reporting them :-)) I can't get to the home page (http://ncwoodworker.net/index.php). It just hangs, "Waiting for ncwoodworker.net...". Same for the "new posts" page. The forums page took several minutes to load...

    A Long but Enjoyable Day at IWF

    Yesterday morning I left home at 5AM and drove to Atlanta for IWF. Wisely, I parked for free at an outlying MARTA station and bought a $4 round trip ticket. Walked into the show at 9:15. Here are some pictures and a report. Welcome to the World Congress Center and IWF 2008! Everyone was...

    last day of SAPFM conference (long)

    Sorry about the delay in tying up my experience at the conference. I have a hard time balancing my time when Silage cutting time comes around. 270 loads down 100 to go. In my last report I wrote about the different seminars. They were all really great. The lighting in most of the rooms was...

    Drilling long blanks

    Does anyone have suggestions on how to drill a blank past the limits of your drill press or lathe? My machines can handle 2 1/2" but I need at least 3 1/2" for the blank (woodworker's pencil). Standing in my garage staring at my drill press and waiting for inspiration hasn't seemed to help...

    It has been seven months since I bought my ClearVue Cyclone and I am finally getting started on its installation. The delay, as many already have heard, is because of damage to my right shoulder and subsequent rotator cuff surgery and rehab. i've made the bin full sensor (following Alan in...

    How Long shold my feet be?

    I am making a free-standing 'display' with two legs (think of a free-standing chalkboard or free-standing headboard, etc.). To keep it from falling over, is there some ratio (foot length to display height) I need to follow to make it stable, but without making them so long that they get tripped...

    How long should my belt be?

    I am just now getting my shop setup since I moved here last fall. I cannot seem to find the belt for my Delta 36-441 contractors saw. I stopped at Klingspors today and picked up a link belt. The kit is 48" but I realize now I don't know how long it should be. It looks to be about 41" but I don't...
