Congrats on the new mill. It's no less a money pit than anything rotary. I've had 3 rx7's. I sold the last one with 2 spare engines, 3 transmissions, and enough spare electronics for 2 space shuttles. I miss the sound, but not the constant task of chasing down intermittent problems.

Dimple dies will do it. Of course they will work best 'upside down' as shown in the picture. "Grimples". If the die leaves a flat edge at the "bottom" of the dimple, a slightly larger hole will get rid of this and allow for better traction.

The easiest is a dado. If in plywood, it's best to use a track insert of aluminum or plastic as the plus can chip/break easily depending on how closely spaced they are. Make the top channel deep enough that the door can be lifted up and out of the bottom track. You don't want it permanently...

I went to college for architecture and our shop replaced both of our table saws with SawStops after a professor(a long time wood worker) lost the end of his finger. With around 200 people, many of whom are not experienced with whirling blades of destruction, the saws were worth it. We had a few...

Congrats on the garage. I've had 3 2nd gens. Sold my 89 GTUs last year after 12yrs. I had almost enough spares to build another car. Loads of fun when they're running and loads of work when they're not.

My 2 6 amp grinders arrived today. I have a heavy duty dewalt forthright tough stuff, but I'm tired of switching wheels. For $13/ea, I can't complain

Thank you very much for the link. After accounting for 100,000 miles of tread wear on the front wheels and the measurements in the ad, I have a 784 Big Boy. It's a shame the cover plate and nose cap are missing. They really complete the Art Deco look. I'll get a seal kit and start searching for...

Unfortunately that plate is missing. the rivets are still there, so i assume the jack was crammed under too low of a vehicle at some point and ripped the plate off.

Does anyone know what brand of vise this is? My dad had it for as long as I can remember and he left it with me when he moved across the country 15 years ago. I know it's no Wilton bullet or massive 450lb piece of iron, but it sure has held a lot of parts for us over the years. I've been trying...

I've been a lurker on here for a number of years and been a member for a while but haven't had much cause to post anything until today. I found this Walker jack on CL for a pretty cheap price but it needs a rebuild. The ID tag has been ripped off(rivets are still there) and it didn't come with a...
