    Made some boards from a 3x4

    So I grabbed a 3x4 from work. We use them and 2x4s for pallets to ship the stainless steel coils we slit. I managed to find one that looked fairly straight with the grain running relatively straight and sawn with the grain running more or less quarter sawn. Squared up using the table saw I...

    Mastery of hand cut dovetails

    The category that I would vote is wanting to learn how to do them. Need a few things before I start learning them, bench with vice to hold the wood, dovetail saw, sharpening gear, decent chisels, fret saw. Basically everyone needed to do them.

    Think it's still good?

    Working on getting the garage cleaned out. Note that my parents bought the house in 73 and I'm inheriting it when my mom passes. With that I'm mind there's obviously going to be a lot of old stuff that was forgotten or I have no use for our any sentimental attachment to. Even though I have two...

    And they said it would never get off the ground

    The FAA grounded Starship indefinitely following the launch. While it was a successful launch, the noise and debris kicked up caused a lot of issues and may also be the cause of separation failure and blowing up. Apparently the dust was thrown several miles from the site. Need to consult with...

    Free wood

    Searching Facebook marketplace and Craigslist brings up quite a few listings for free wood. Can anyone tell me why most people cut it up and post it as firewood before listing it? Sure it's good for that and making short live edge shelves and other smaller projects but it seems anything that...

    Craftsman Table saw 113.298720

    A few pics of it completed. I forgot to get a pic of the top before I started removing the rust. Started with a red scotch Brite, then 320grit with wd40 and worked up to 600 grit. You can see a few spots that are pitted and would require surface machining to remove. I think it cleaned up quite...

    Craftsman Table saw 113.298720

    Looking like a table saw again. Got it on a new mobile base, it's all assembled except for the motor and guard. Tonight I got the new fence installed. Squared up as best I can till I get the day running and can make a cut. I might end up getting new sides for the fence, the ones on it now...

    Prime Rib Gloat

    I love my food saver. I always double seal though. I found that a single seal wouldn't hold. I get a lot less bad seals double sealing. I roll the end of the bag down to keep anything from getting on the area that gets the heat seal. also fold a paper towel and place it in the bag in front of...

    Diesel heater for garage shop?

    Has anyone installed a diesel heater in their shop? I just learned these exist. Sold more as camper and rv heaters but I'm seeing YouTube videos of people using them to heat their shops. Some using a car battery on a trickle charge and some getting an ac adapter. Big selling point for them...
