    I Give up!!! (pic added)

    I had to remake a door frame for the work truck. After getting it built and the 1st coat of finish on it I decided to see how the art work fit in so I could make the molding to hold it in. I AM 3" SHORT ON BOTH THE HEIGHT AND WIDTH:kamahlitu:kamahlitu!!!! I just trashed $55 worth of 8/4 red...

    Thought I would give it a shot - WIP

    This all started because I wanted to see if I could hand cut dovetail joints (not easy...I still need to practice). So I built a simple box. (The picture quality isn't very good. I'm not really set up to take good pictures.) Then I decided that I should do something different for the lid...

    I give! no more dust please!

    OK... I'm saying uncle already. I can't stand all the dust everywhere in the shop. Every time I sand it's the same story, a coat of fine dust all over the place. I realize it's a workshop, but move something and I might as well wear a mask full-time. I have a wall mounted shop vac I hook up to...

    Going to give away the sawmill business

    After much consideration... I've decided that I'm going to give up sawmilling and logging for a while anyways and I'm going to give all my sawing equipment to my father-in-law in southern IL. He really enjoys running the woodmizer and he can use it to supplement his fixed income. I really hate...

    Wood into Food, a way to give back

    I've been mulling over an idea and wanted to throw it out for comments. I've only been making sawdust for a couple years, so am still learning (where'd that board stretcher go?), but I find I don't have enough family and friends to absorb the various things I make. Unless you woodwork for a...

    Changing an item to free ought to give it a bump

    I gave up on selling an item and changed it to free. I was surprised when it did not pop back up at the top of the list. I understand why little changes shouldn't count or people might keep making a minor edit every few days just to stay at the top, but changing an item to free seems like it...

    Some thoughts as I give up the stewardship of NCWWI

    When I first started the incorporation process, I assumed that I would probably end up being the president for many years. But starting in Jan and Feb of this year, I came to the conclusion that I wouldn't run for the board at all. I no longer was of a mindset that would allow me to be fair and...

    Consistant Cuts...... I give up..... HELP

    Ok..... I've been working on this all day long. I'm trying to get consistant 90 degree cuts ..horiz and vert. I've been messing with my 7.25 sliding miter saw and doing all that I can to make sure I push down the same rate and I push it back to finish the cut. I also tried building a sled for my...

    Show Me Your Workbenches & Give Me Ideas

    I realized early into my first project that my current workbench is not well suited for woodworking. It is "L" shaped and fitted into a corner, attached to the walls. There are shelves above it. The shelves limit my ability to work with tall pieces and I can't walk around it. It worked great...

    Ok, now's your chance to give Scott Smith a hand

    I just heard from Scott about his needs for help. He needs help this Sat(5th) and Sun(6th). This first will NOT be the glamorous "barn raising". It will be nasty, dirty clean up. I would advise than anyone coming bring some form of breathing particle filter. If you have any serious respiratory...

    Iturra Design - I give them an "A"

    I purchased 2 bandsaw blades from Iturra Design earlier this year. Upon arrival, I discovered that the Bladerunner blade was 3/4" too long. There was no way I could make up that slack. I had given them the spec'd length over the phone and that is what I was billed for. After just one call...

    I give you my heart...

    We received a request for a custom project from the sister of one of Clay's co-workers. Here's the original thread for background - http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/showthread.php?p=69506#post69506 I decided to take on the project as it wasn't something I had ever done, I had the stock, and...

    I give up!

    Ok....I finally give up....I can't figure it out....After all this time I still don't know what BORG stands for other than a Star Trek TNC creation. So WHAT does it mean? I've thought Big Ole Red Garage, and other variations. :BangHead: Thanks, Woodrat

    Had to give it a shot ( Pun intended )

    I had to give this a try Ebony and a 308 shell with copper kit. If any one wants to give this a shot I have about 50 never fired 308 shells :icon_thum And one from Jeff's blank pile I think he said it was red oak burl

    Bandsaw Purchase or give up?

    Tried the Delta 28-475X, big time vibration problems. All the reviews said Rikon 18. Ordered the new model Rikon. New Rikon tensioning/tracking design bites, IMHO, and I just can't buy something that I know is WRONG. Will return to dealer. So, thinking aloud...is someone trying to tell me...
