Hello all,
I have a 36x48 table top that I would like to run through a belt sander. In the past I would have taken it to the Hardwood Store of NC but they have changed their policy and will only provide sanding services for wood that was purchased at their store. On this particular project I...

Hi everyone. I am new to this site and looking for some help. I am building a custom bar in my house. I bought some nice 3/4" oak boards for cabinet face, base board, trim, etc. The boards are planed well, but not exactly square down the edges. Need some help to get these edges straight and then...
I have gotten my hands on a gold mine of white and red oak (and a few others possibly) on a buddy's property in Wendell, NC (just east of Raleigh in Wake Co.). The trees are too big for me to be able to transport to the one mill I have been to before. Does anybody know of someone with a...
About 2 months ago my Dewalt DW788 scroll saw quit working. After spending about $90 and unsuccessfully trying to repair it, I bought a used Hegner scroll saw I located on Craig's List way down in Myrtle Beach. I spent over $300 on parts and upgrades, but was not happy with it, so I took the...

Scott Smith gave me the recommendation for these folks. The owner, Cormac Nagan, is a fairly young Irish guy from Chicago. He's also a certified arborist so he knows a lot about trees and how to care for them.

Hi Folks,
I have 12,000 pounds of Cypress sitting at Ivey's place in Burgaw. I need to get it to Hillsborough. I had scheduled a trailer rental from hertz Equipment and when I got there there was a problem. They then offered me a flatbed truck, but the truck won't start :(
Does anyone know...
I recently had a need to complain about a purchase I made from Supergrit. I sent my complaint via the email address I found in the "contact us" section of their web site. Rather than respond by email, a very nice lady named Laura called me to discuss it and "make it right". Bottom line: I was...
Last week, I posted about breaking a band saw blade, and needing to order a replacement. Well yesterday morning around 9:00 AM, I called Woodcraft Bands and ordered two. Today, the postman brought them. Next day service and great prices, you can't beat that.
Just got three of my Ridgid 12 volt LI drills back from J&S Tool repair. They replaced the batteries ( a total of four batteries) under either warranty, or lifetime service agreement. I don't care which, but it is sure nice to have new batteries for FREE! Don't forget to file the "Life Time...
Hey All,
I was wondering if any member out in the Nebo area (Dysartsville to be exact) has a bush hog that I can hire (or knows of someone) to cut about a 1 ½ acre lot of briers and scrub brush. Very easy terrain to work on. An added plus would be a front bucket to backfill a bunch of test...
I'll be going from Lincolnton, NC to Jacksonville FL Fri Oct 1st and returning Sat Oct 2nd. I'll have a 7x12 enclosed trailer EMPTY on the way down if anyone happens to need something moved to Jax.

Every now and then I come across a negative post about Powermatic since they were acquired by WMH tool group, and just wanted to throw my $.02 in on the subject.
I have a PM2800 drill press, certainly a rather spendy indulgence on one of the less complex pieces of equipment we have in our...

I ordered some bullet cartridge kits for the first time and...
Unfortunately for me, the results are not surprising in a good way :no:
First, a little background. I have a Dewalt 7640, which is a 50t combination blade that was compared favorably with the WWII a few years back (2005?) - not better than the WWII, as I recall, but in the same league. I paid...
Went to mount a blank on my screw chuck that came with my Barracuda 2 chuck, discovered that it's slightly bent. Contacted PSI yesterday for a replacement, they couldn't find my invoice. I stated that I purchased it from Amazon last year, and was willing to pay for it. I wasn't expecting a...
Not long ago, there was a "hot deals" thread about a "scratch/dent" closeout with some very good deals on books at Fox Chapel. I ordered a couple of books. One I wanted more than the other and it was the one that justified the price plus shipping to me and the other was worth the reduced price...
