    An opinion, please

    I have been contacted by a member about allowing a Calendar Contest entry submission taken by a profession a photographer. I felt it would be OK, but he replied that per the rules, the photo should be "a reflection of your woodworking and photography skills" Should we allow professional...

    What is your opinion of a ......???

    Good Evening All, This "might" not be in the appropriate forum, but I hope it's OK. It's a question about a power tool, but not about the use of one. I've been wanting to get a table saw to use to cut my wood to size, etc. for my scrollsawing. I've seen a used Shop Master by Delta for $80...

    Your Opinion about Grizzly?

    http://fayetteville.craigslist.org/tls/2112960422.html I talked to this guy today, I am thinking about going to get this saw. He says it is a late 90's model. I know it is a contractors saw, but I don't really have room for a big heavy cabinet saw in my shop. I offered $200 and he said...

    Compressor/Nailer Combo kits - Opinion on brands?

    So I have some trim work to do both at home and for a friend. Seems like a compressor/nailer kit is in my future. That cash outlay will eat up what my friend will pay me to finish his trim work (if I had a regular job I'd do it for free). Seems the major brands are priced similarly...

    Opinion's needed

    I'm looking to replace my current lathe with a better unit and have posted several options for question and review. I'm trying to decide on a mini versus a full size. I think a mini might suit my garage shop better and the main interest i have is pens at this point. Anybody bought a mini...

    Opinion on jointers

    If you had your druthers.....well if you only had two choices i should say...between the Ridgid jointer and the Grizzly G0654 (orG0452) which would you choose? With shipping on the Grizzly, they come out to the same price (at least based on the price of the Ridgid at the local HD). OR!!! unless...

    Opinion on W Butcher Plane needed

    First let me say, I know nothing about planes!! My neighbor was kind enough to give me this plane after I commented he should leave it to me in his will:wink_smil. I'm not venturing into the neander world (YET) but was wondering if it is worth restoring. The only parts are the iron and body. No...

    Lathe opinion

    Saw this on craigslist, seems high to me. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/tls/554269002.html Brand new the 46-715 sells for around $400 from what I've researched on the net. Opinions? I know next to nothing about lathes, just looking for a good deal on a used starter lathe.

    Table Saw Opinion

    Opinion on Walker Turner

    Anyone ever seen or used this scroll saw? It was mfg in approx 1953, maybe on the same day I was manufactured...:lol: so we could be twins??? I was able to find a manual and exploded view parts list on OWWM so I know more about her innards than my own. It was left to me by my FIL, who got it...

    Jig Saw opinion

    Hi all! I have been using (daily) a late 70's-early 80's AEG barrel grip jigsaw for 14 years. I inherited this wonder from my grandfather. The chuck has been broken for about a year, but I have rigged a few 18ga brads into the chuck to make it work. I have searched, extensively, to find...

    Sharpening, yet another man's opinion....

    I know that an opion is like an ______ and everyone has one. So do I! I have spent the past 2 weeks "learning" to sharpen a chisel on waterstones by hand (aka no jigs or grinders). To start, I read many books on the subject, watched a few videos and way too many google searches. I...
