Looking good! I too suffer from your same ailments and am working at just digging in and doing it. Keep it up, it's turning into A great garage!

I'm thinking a simple MDF top mounted to a workmate. Here's a question, are most router bases the same bolt pattern? I'm a machinist and I'm thinking I could make an aluminum insert for the table top.

Ok, thanks guys! I guess that's enough bad reviews to keep me away. I think I will make something simple for now. I do have a router but I would like to move up to a half inch one. I'll check out the hitachi What exactly is the difference between a shaped and a router?

Thanks for the input....unfortunate I'm no closer to a decision now than I was ! But I'm in no rush, maybe I'll luck into one in the meantime!

I think I need a router table.....I had plans of building one but that has not happened as of yet. It would see pretty light use, mainly for rounding corners. I was thinking about ordering the HF unit, has anyone got any experience with them? I'm hoping they are a diamond in the rough like a...

Table looks great! Superbec, be careful using break cleaner, if you havent heard the horror stories it's worth a read. http://weldingweb.com/showthread.php?182941-DANGER-using-BrakeCleaner-to-clean-your-Parts

How did I miss the new addition? Looks great! We have an xlo at work and it has been a good reliable machine for many years. I'd recommend a vfd to convert your mill rather than a new motor.

It worked out ok, lighter ga would have been better, it would have tightened up nicer. As usual though I got by with what I had on hand. Stove works great, drafts like a champ. Vast improvement over the old one.

Installing new wood burner, had to fab this up for the pipe.

Doubles as a truck dog

It's 16ga

Someone said instead of bricks just leave my floor Jack under there to make it easy to clean the pipe. Nice, he was an engineer too.

Thanks guys. Me, you aren't the first person to suggest setting it up on blocks, I do appreciate the advice! The telescoping pipe would be perfect but the local hardware store didn't have one nor did their supplier. They had a draw collar in galvanized but were unable to get one in black. I...

I just acquired a new wood burner. My chimney goes strait up through the ceiling and roof. Here is my question, how can I install the pipe from stove to ceiling without removing (lifting) chimney? Do I need to add elbows to give me some wiggle room to assemble the pipe?

Looks like a great start!

I made a beam by sandwiching 3 2x6s and it just lays across the ceiling joists. I drilled a hole through the sheeting and dropped a chain through. Chain is wrapped around beam and bolted. No problem hanging deer from it

Wow! I just found this and I gotta say it looks great! You have got a great start there! Subscribed!

I get along great with my neighbors. We don't sweat the small stuff. Pole sheds aren't small stuff. Take care of it before it's an issue.

Good lord! Whenever selling something I am sure to point out the flaws. I at least avoid the "I drove all this way and didn't know about that scratch, I'll give you half" That guy needed an *** whooping.
