Sliders will rip dimensional lumber all day long, you need to do some research. I was a traditional guy, and still am in my shop, but if I was dropping the coin you are talking about I’d buy a euro style slider in a heartbeat. As far as the fences we beat our bies fences day in and out and the...

I’m with the slider guys, if you need an industrial 5hp saw you’re already into slider $$$, you might as well go big. the guys over at sawmill creek are all over these like the posters above. Like said above - school shop and sawstop are a match made in heaven, but for pro woodworking there are...

Craftsman Pro USA ratchet wrenches are on my list, everything else I would want is readily available in todays market. I have some stuff not made anymore and honestly with the exception of Armstrong wrenches I can source most of it easily.

I’d bet that’s it, the 82 pc tool set and the tool box makes 83 pieces. Great find!

In the OP’s case he is in a different spot than a friend or acquaintance. I’m in the camp of no, as it doesn't take long to bang up someone’s siding brake. If it were a more rugged tool or less valuable I’d be more inclined to let it go and bug them every day until it came back. As a rule I...

Like most folks with a deck or patio I have a deck box. I also have some delta poly truck boxes, and a few rubbermade totes. Have you searched the classifieds/CL/Fb for truck toolboxes, I know you are remote but lots of folks keep them around for the next truck, trailer or whatever and then...

Honestly, I am a fan of the RAS, but I don’t have one set up as a user right now. Like many posters I made a lot of thing using a RAS over the years, especially when I was using an old craftman tablesaw. Why I don’t have a user set up now? Space - work envelope and footprint are large Key use...

I’d go for the Deere too. I’ve always bought used ones. My current one is a 325 with a 48”deck and a 17 Hp Kawi motor. Every few years I have to pull the deck and clean and paint it up, check spindles,wheels, etc. Every time I need parts I walk in the dealer who’s 20 min away and walk out with...

I just acquired a used tablesaw saw, and it looks like someone butchered the fence tube. I priced out a factory replacement and it is incredibly expensive. My next plan is to simply fabricate a replacement tube. As all projects, it turns out the tubing is metric sized, so off the shelf metal...

I have a set of the HF locking ones from a few years ago. They have very little use but I did have one self disassemble in normal use. (non-impact) After that I lost any trust I had in them, but have used them so little that I have not needed to replace them with something better. Glad I passed...
