I love my old unisaw, but as I was making cabinets for my woodshop, it became clear I needed more extension for the fence. And if you're going to add an extension, you might as well add a router table. So I found a commercial grade, vintage Biesemeyer fence on CL for cheap... It needed a lot...

I'm about to build some cabinets for the wood side of my shop and wanted to seal the concrete under the cabinets. But I had some plastic down there under some cardboard boxes and it got pretty wet and moldy over a few months. I've read that if you get condensation through the concrete, you...

So I think this is mostly for West Coast guys... So my vision for my new shop has always included insulation and drywall... Currently, it's exposed studs and joists with tarpaper... Old-school, but dark. The studs are a dark brown color and I always assumed they were just pine or fir coated...

Hi, My new shop started as a 20x20 that someone added another 20x20 to the back of... From the outside, it looks like a 20x40 shop, but inside, there's a wall in the middle that no longer bears load but divides the shop in half... Obviously, my first thought was to immediately rip it out and...

I always wanted at least a 20x40 foot Garage... Well the wife found me one and we moved back to So-Cal for it... Not really, but that's close enough for now... I also always thought it would be cool to have a little office in my shop... I work from home about 80% of the time and we share an...

Hi Guys, I've been lurking a while... Forgot I registered a long time ago and couldn't remember my password. I live in Austin and could use some advice on a new garage project. Thanks, Phil
