Miter saw help, please. I’m stumped. My Delta 36-225 10” compound (non-sliding) miter saw, equipped with sharp Freud LU85 is producing 90-dgree cuts that are crowned. What I’m calling a crown amounts to a cut that curves ever-so slightly outwards from the edge closest to the fence, reversing its...
My daughter still thinks "Dad can fix anything" even though she is in her 30's now. I'm trying to keep my image up and not let her in on the real truth just yet, so I need some helpful ideas and opinions. She sent me this picture of damage to a dresser that she would like for me to "fix" next...
Hey all,
I'm looking for smallish scraps from 1/4" sqaure by 12" long of various exotic hardwoods that are colorful (looking for Purpleheart, Yellowheart, Bloodwood, Padauk, etc.). This is for Jewelry for the LOML, and family gifts. I can also use scroll saw scraps, 1/16" x 1/4" x 12"....1" x...
I would like to add a bead to the inside edges of my cabinet face frames. I plan to use pocket screws for assembly. These will be cherry cabinets with a clear finish.
I have read several articles about how to do it. They all look pretty time consuming. So far it looks like I might as well just...
I have a 1963 house with a 4/12 pitch hip roof with at least 12" of blown cellulose insulation on the cieling. I put a new roof on last year a and on the advice of my "roofer" I removed 6 box vents (without fans) from the roof, but have a complete vented ridge. A different friend of mine...
Does any have a duplicator that some extra cash? The lady who makes these dog beds needs someone to make the feet. If you are interested PM me and I'll put you in touch with her. Don't know the volume.
We snagged an Ott-Lite Floor task lamp on some major sale a few years ago and the ballast has stopped working. In my research on this I'm finding that Ott-Lite doesn't make their spare parts freely available and I'm not sure I want to continue with this style if it doesn't hold up any better...
I am thinking about a project that will need a sliding dovetail joint, so today I was fooling around on the router table and thought I would try one out of some scrap pine.
I used a 1/2" straight bit to cut a groove to start the slot so the dovetail bit didn't have to hog out all that wood...
The good new is we look like we will have a record crowd for this year's picnic. The sign-up is pushing 160 with a few days to go for sign-ups. The bad news is we could use some more help with setup and clean up duties. Any one who can lend a hand will be greatly appreciated. Even if just...
LOML has decided that she would like the easy to build glider featured in the latest Wood magazine. It calls for about 60 bd ft of cedar but cypress would also work well. I can live with some tight knots.
Does any anyone have a stash and if so can you PM me with pricing information. Near...
This might be an interesting opportunity for someone who is retired and likes to work with kids.

Samaritans Purse has organized a disaster cleanup effort for the Raleigh/Forestville area. They are operating out of the Wake Crossroads Baptist Church. They particularly need people with large chainsaws to cut up some big trees, starting Friday, 4/22. If you can help, or just loan them your...
My saw is putting out a mix of chips and dust. It takes over a minute to get through a 10" oak log that had been standing dead for a few years. Perhaps my expectations are wrong, but that seems pretty slow. Last time I used it, I was cutting some smallish (6-8") freshly felled soft maple and...
I got this email via Charlotte Woodworkers. I know some members are college/grad students so this might be of interest to them. But I also wonder if they'd Alex be a camper/instructor!!!
