    When did SYP get so hard to find??? - Rant

    I'm probably going to come across sounding rather dense here with some wondering where the heck have I been. But when the dickens did SYP, particularly in a 4x4 and untreated, get so hard to find? My plan was, and still is, to make myself a hall tree out of southern yellow pine. I was going...

    Rant

    I am almost done with my second and last piece using ash. This stuff works like a dream but I can't get the stinking wood to take a finish without blotching terribly. The first project was a glass front cabinet and I used gell stain on it with less than go desirable results. This one is a...

    Please excuse my rant..........

    But I think members should know when there is an unscrupulous vendor out there. In late July I sent an expensive 10" combination table saw blade to a firm that heavily advertises in woodworking magazines and on line from Buffalo, NY for sharpening. I included a note that although the blade...

    Watching another "Rant"

    ScottM posted a lighthearted rant about the (child proof) screw-on tops of cans. http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f29/can-rantings-33108/ The last post ponders the number of lawsuits against container manufacturers. Looks like another one to keep an eye on.

    Rant Mode on---HVAC Tech in Raleigh

That said can anyone recommend an HVAC repair service in the Ral/Cary area? Or is changing the motor cake...

    Safety rant...

    So I am watching a wwing podcast on making a push stick and the host has his father on to help with the show. The father was missing part of his finger due to a TS accident and the host also has a close call with a TS. They were stressing the importance of a good push stick and shop safety...

    Why not local products

    I have a lot of wood that will likely, eventually, become cutting boards. I know there are a lot of gift shops at the coast that sell wood items like cutting boards, bowls and spoons. I've thought about talking to some of the shop owners about selling mine in their shops. I don't have any made...

    Is It Just Me? - CMS Clamp Rant

    Have I not been looking in th right place? I see (and have one) CMS's with the clamp that mounts on the front and tightens from the front and I've seen those with clamps on the top that tighten from the top. I have not seen a CMS with the option that will clamp from the front and/or the top...
