    Renewing an old Sears 6-1/8 Jointer Planer

    I suppose I could but I'd rather not fiddle with the bearings and retaining rings if I don't have to. I actually managed to get all the screws out using just wd-40 and metal-on-metal persuasion. I'll need to replace them but at least they're out! Now I'm having trouble getting the...

    Renewing an old Sears 6-1/8 Jointer Planer

    Unfortunately the knives are rusted stuck into the wheel. Despite my best efforts and plenty of wd-40, I managed to strip most of the screws holding them in. They're socket head hex machine screws as pictured. I've never done a drill/tap but it seems that's my next move. What exactly do I need...

    Renewing an old Sears 6-1/8 Jointer Planer

    I picked up an old Sears Craftsman 6-1/8 Jointer Planer for $30 at a garage sale (Model 113.206931). I dug up the manual (attached) and intend to make it usable again....unless anyone can convince me it's dead. Motor runs, belt is usable. The blades turn without any whining or squealing.... the...

    15A circuit load (Ontario Code)

    Thanks. Is that pretty well defined somewhere in the code? I'm borrowing a copy this weekend and just want to look it all up. Also wondering if I need AFCI on potlight-only circuits. I believe they're only required on circuits with outlets and that an AFCI outlet can be first on the circuit...

    15A circuit load (Ontario Code)

    I'm doing a basement reno in Ontario and looking for clarification on circuit load design. Unfortunately I don't have a copy of the code because its ridiculously expensive (if you have it please pm me!), but I do have Electrical Code Simplified, based on the 23rd edition which is a little old...

    Higher Wall Shelves for occasional-use storage

    A combination of busy work schedule and just plain old dragging my heels meant I didn't actually action anything on this shelf idea until last weekend. I ended up just going with some spare 2x4s I had lying around + chipboard. Simple 45 degree arm support design. I have 24" centre studs and...

    Higher Wall Shelves for occasional-use storage

    Yeah I sketched some plans yesterday and decided not to go with the vertical post. I'm planning to angle down (like the 2nd picture), but to attach the 45 degree supports to the wall with an angled cut, AND put a horizontal 2x4 immediately below (running the span of the shelf). I'll also screw...

    Higher Wall Shelves for occasional-use storage

    Just moving in to a new place and setting up the garage. I have higher ceiling and would like to make use of the empty space for storing tools & that I don't use frequently (or seasonal items). I DID try searching the forums first, but didn't come up with much, so here it goes.... My garage...

    Hello from Ontario

    Hi everyone. New member, just joined. I was actually surfing for some wall shelving plans and discovered this forum. After reading through a few threads, it seemed like a good idea just to join! I'm in the military so we have moved around a little bit. We just got a new posting a couple...
