    Flammable storage in garage/furnace question

    Flammable storage in garage/furnace question

    Just moved to new house and I'm getting my garage set up. after filling up this cabinet I had a second thought about it being near the furnace. I checked the furnace over and see no warnings about storing flammables near it. Should this concern me? I could move it to the other side of the garage...

    Same thing happened to me today in Washington. Spent 45 minutes filling my cart only to be told they couldn't accept gift cards because the system was down. I was wondering why they weren't announcing that overhead every few minutes..

    Woodworking 101--Tools and Tips

    I watched this video upon the recommendation of many searched posts. Alex Snodgrass is supposed to be the Bandsaw Guru. I think he does an excellent job explaining the setup. I can cut a perfect straight line with the miter gauge with no blade drift. I'm running a Timberwolf 1/2" 3tpi "low...

    HF dust collector

    Not the same at all. General is a pretty well respected brand of wood working tools. It also has a 2 micron bag instead of the HF 5 micron. The impeller looks pretty substantial too. http://www.homedepot.com/p/General-International-1-5-HP-Dust-Collector-10-105-M1/205414480
