    Woodworking 101--Tools and Tips

    I am a lover and user of the 77 dowel maker. Complete and working units are getting harder to find and cutters are even more scarce. EBay cutters are listed in the 125--250 range now. Good luck with your quest.

    Congrats on the new addition. Sorry to hear about your Rona scare. But now you have the storm to worry about. Charge up your batteries and open the hurricane cabinet. Good luck.

    Re: DRIVESITFAR IS GETTING ORGANIZED in his 9x15 portion of 2 car garage. DIY’s & COO Drives-- I hope you say home and isolate for the safety of your community. Sooner or later we will all be exposed but isolation spreads it out so resources are not overwhelmed. My grandfather was in med school...

    About the glass--nothing is 100% safe but luckily the kids are old enough to understand proper use. But the bank would be an interesting dungeon for Barbie.

    Woodworking 101--Tools and Tips

    PO Bank Staycation for everyone means more shop time! I found a box of bronze PO box doors when I was cleaning up last month. Since I have a load of grandkids, most of whom are young enough to enjoy something like this, I decided to get busy. It all started with making a prototype. This one is...

    BB--Great score on your H & R set. Much better to buy a good set because matching is important. Good luck making shavings.

    Re: DRIVESITFAR IS GETTING ORGANIZED in his 9x15 portion of 2 car garage. DIY’s & COO Drives--Good score on the shaper. It looks nice. Light passes until you get familiar with it. Just remember to feed from one side as shapers have a working side and a pitch workpiece thru window side.

    Broken Rock Island vise

    Perhaps you could just fab a base from steel plate and weld the vise to the new base. Good luck with your repair.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Anyone with a car NEEDS that inflator. Not only is it a pain to get out the compressor, that bending/squatting stuff is hard on us old dudes. But the inflator is so cool that my son in law will grab it out of my hands just to use it. Win win

    Harbor Freight Yukon Garage Storage System (NEW)

    I have a shop full of Gladiator so this is too late for me. I am a fan of the diamond plate and even have matching flooring. With the HF sales these cabinets should be priced well. Certainly something to consider because nice cabinets really upscale a garage shop. And the storage plus...
