    DA Sanding Disk Source

    I am planning to order a new Dynabrade R/O sander and I was curious if anyone had any good online sources for either 6" pressure sensitive (PSA) or hook & loop (velcro) sanding disks (or even Dynabrade sanders themselves?) I am trying to decide if I should get a sander with dust collection...

    Hole Saw for steel plate

    Along the same idea that brianpgriset posted, if you drill a few 1/4" (or whatever size) holes so that their outside edge is even with the edge of your desired 2" hole they will give even more room to clear chips and the sharp edge the intersection creates will actually scrape the teeth clean...

    Fedwrench mentioned Zep Cherry Bomb in his post above.... does anyone know where to buy that online? I used it a few times and I thought it was great. I'd love to get some for home, but I can't find anyplace that carries it. Thanks Tommy

    Small business ( would you call this company )

    Sorry, but I have to agree... I wouldn't call based on that site. Sometimes a poorly designed site with limited content (and free hosting) can be a detriment to a company. With that being said, I also personally look online for everything so without a website you are losing a lot of your...

    drill press vice/pic's of a project

    If you want a cheap and quick setup take a look at this aluminum v-block from McMaster-Carr.... type the item number "20065A8" into the search box. It has a 7/16" groove in the bottom for bit clearance and alignment. Just chuck up a 7/16" drill rod (or upside down bit) lower it into the slot...

    Kinda along the same idea as dxdexter, but there are tools for this exact purpose called Blind-Hole Spotters. I know that McMaster Carr has them. I have no idea how to link to a specific item so to find them just enter 2238 (page number) in the find box. Hope it helps Tommy

    Milwaukee Tool Battery Recall

    I am not sure if this was posted here before... if so sorry, but its worth mentioning. Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation is recalling all 14.4V 2.4 Ah and 18V 2.4 Ah NiCd Battery Packs manufactured between 1999 and February 2004 because the battery packs could explode if an over-pressure...

    Outback Steakhouse Lights

    I know that you just wanted the reflector, but McMaster Carr sells fixtures that I think are the type you are looking for.... maybe if you contact them they can order just the reflector. Hope it helps.

    Hey LetsJet, I don't have one or any experience with these, but I saw this a while ago and filed it away for future use. It looks like it might be just what you were looking for and it looks to be about $80 directly from Moen. Good Luck Tommy
