    Recommendation on Router table and Router

    Well the 30 year old craftsman routers I have failed. I had two and inherited two, and over the last couple of years all have failed. Kind of get use to the sparks the worn out brushes emit, but then other pieces start falling apart too. I am stationed overseas as a D.O.D. teacher and have...

    Skew Size and Brand Recommendation

    I am thinking about picking up a regular skew for spindle/flute work. I saw the video by John Lucas on Woodturners Resource last night and it helped me a lot....I was wondering what size to get first. I have an oval skew already but wanted to try a regular one like John used in the video. I...

    Neded: recommendation for roofer in SE Wake County

    Much as it pains me to admit, I missed one of the sources of leaks when I fixed my roof last year. I think this is a sidewall flashing problem where a roof-valley channels a ton of water against a sidewall. Can someone recommend a good roofer ? -Mark

    Plywood recommendation

    Compressor recommendation

    I think it's time to get a new compressor. The one I have right now is El Cheapo from Harbor Freight, bought for the exorbitant price of $40. It's worked OK for the last three years, but it is LOUD, and runs fairly hot with associated oily smell. I will probably get a big stationary compressor...

    Jig Saw recommendation

    I have, or used to have until my brother borrowed it a year ago, a Bosch variable speed model. I was never all that happy with it. Can't remember the model number but it's the only Bosch tool I've not been completely happy with. Since he apparently likes it:roll: I thought I'd get myself a...

    Beginner Lathe Recommendation?

    I've attempted just about everything with wood except turning. Now it's time. I would love to hear your recommendations for a "beginner's" lathe. I don't want to buy a lathe just because it is cheap, but I don't want to spend a fortune either. As we all know, having the correct tool for the...
