I know how involving kids can be, I have a son and between work and his sports it is pretty taxing I can't imagine 3 young ones!! Admittedly I probably should not have taken on this project since I already have so much going on but luckily I am able to justify throwing money at this and I have...

You will have to excuse me as I am still learning about cabinet saws and especially the Unisaw. My electrician friend (who also is a hobby wood worker) explained that the motor would be cheaper (which it was) because they are less desired, it would be built more robust thus lasting much longer...

So this is my first "build thread" here on the Garage Journal. I am hoping to make it as informative and entertaining as I can and hopefully it will be fairly quick from start to finish. A little background on this adventure and the saw to set the stage. I had been away from the GJ for awhile...

After Ryan's latest post I bought a vintage Delta Unisaw

Unfortunately I don't have anything on this computer, I a plan on taking some pics tomorrow to use as a starting point. Especially since right now it is more packed than it has ever been!! The garage is your basic two car attached on a new home, it is 21' wide and 26' deep. I do a little bit of...

So like the title says I have been a member of the forum for almost five years now and this is my very first post. I have frequently referred to posts on this forum when starting projects to use from reference or inspiration and even at times when I was bored out of my mind and just wanted...
