Ody, I have the Domino XL, which uses the larger sized tenons. I have built a couple doors with this. My stile and rail layout allowed me to use a total of 32 of the 14mm x 140mm tenons. I can assure you that this makes for a rock solid door assembly. It also makes for an anxiety filled glue up...

For the money you can't beat these EBCO's: http://www.ebcoproducts.com/stor.html Light weight, galvanized and sturdy. I have 4-5 sets and use them a lot. $14 each at my local Menards.....and less than that when they go on sale. Rich

Are any of you guys using the Milwaukee two speed or variable speed saws in the SWAG table? Seems like it would be a desirable option....just wondering how it works out in real life. Rich

Here's my version. A couple scraps of cherry screwed together, one inch dia holes.

http://www.grkfasteners.com/index.php/en/products I use the R4,cabinet, and finish/trim versions.I get these at a local lumberyard.A bit pricey, but a great product.Their driver bits are outstanding also....they last longer than any other bit I've used.I also get the Torx construction screws at...

I'm calling this Wilton done and ready for takeoff. Now for the next one..... Rich

This is my first Wilton resto. All parts are cleaned, painted and ready to go back together. I didn't set any speed records with this one but I'm happy with the way it turned out. Rich

Autopts, Holy Moly! Nice job on the 800s. I hope to see one of those in person someday....

I'm a carpenter/remodeler and I use this DeWalt saw as my job site saw. http://www.dewalt.com/tools/machinery-portable-table-saws-dwe7480.aspx I've probably had it 6-7 yrs now and have logged some miles on it.I have no complaints as it has done everything I would expect a compact saw to do...

I use a roller for the first coat when it's on the sawhorses, and a brush for the final coat.The brush goes quicker than you think as Hardi takes paint very nicely. Rich

We have Hardy on our house and a couple other buildings.I've also done a few siding jobs with it as a contractor. I prefer to use the primed and apply one coat before installation. Then install and paint all cut ends.Caulk as needed with a good grade of paintable caulk and apply finish coat.This...

For me, I use both.I will disassemble and give any greasy or oily parts a scrub with this de-greaser or similar. http://www.supercleanbrands.com/products#15 Then all the rusty bits go in the electrolysis tub.Don't be afraid to leave them in for a couple of days or more if needed to bust loose...

I'm a carpenter/remodeler/woodworker during my day job.I've tried many sawhorse variants over the years, both purchased and home made. I've been using EBCO's exclusively for about the last 8-9 years now. They are light weight, sturdy, and fold up into a relatively compact package for transport...

Drivesit, Thanks. I just maintain a strictly amateur status as a writer.Although, I've been married for 35 yrs now and that has helped my story telling skills evolve considerably. A Morgan 50 is this largest vise to date in the Subie.But, I'm always on the hunt for larger game. Rich

I got up Friday morning,grabbed a cup of coffee and checked CL. "Vise, large, heavy duty,6 to 7 inch throat,$40" caught my eye. Typical fuzzy CL photo looked like a Reed, and closer inspection showed it to be a pivot jaw model in addition. A quick Google image confirmed my suspicion. Dropped...

I finally got the resto on this one done.I started right after Christmas, but then the Polar Vortex set in and I didn't feel like being outside to wire brush. It' seen on the back burner ever since. I ended up going with basic black and a slightly none traditional paint job on the lever.It...

I have one of the Justrite 5gal cans for my lawn mower. I like it a lot. Will probably get a 1 gal version for the 2cycle equipment also. http://www.justritemfg.com/products/safety-cans-and-containers/type-ii-accuflow-steel-safety-cans/ Rich

Thanks Guys, I agree...it looks like a Stephens.Which, is cool as that's my last name.

I received this lever action vise for Christmas from my brother.I think I have seen similar vises in the vise thread, but my Google Fu is letting me down.I'm wondering if anyone might know the manufacturer.There is no identification of any kind on this.It has 4 1/2" jaws.I don't have a scale to...

I've had good results with this supplier: www.supergrit.com. http://www.supergrit.com/products/products_discs-mechlocking.asp They sell the fiber discs individually,the sanding discs in multiples of 10. Rich
