What kind of warehouse/business do you work for? Perhaps there are similar warehouses out here in my neck of the woods I can find and approach about their used pallets and such.

Are there ever any coupon codes (for general use or use with/for power tools) for LOWES ??

I guess it's a "hit or miss" thing. I'll just have to keep trying.

On the issue of companies using/discarding pallets - and relative to my frustrating experience I described above . . . . - HOW would one go about approaching any given company/office to inquire about their used pallets? - WHO would one want to speak to at the company/office? - WHAT might...

As a side - yet related - note . . . . Does anyone have any insight and/or advice as to where to obtain wooden crates and/or big ole' wooden spools (used or otherwise) ??? e.g.

Not if you build them a couple of these . . . or maybe one of these . . . :thumbup:

So, as I continue along in my "finding decent pallets" journey - and beyond the awesome and very much/forever appreciated/generous assistance I received from member John (aka "El Barto") - I recently had my first unpleasant "pallet gathering" experience. So I was driving my truck the other day...

PICS ??? PICS ??? :drool:

How to you attach the masonite to your benchtop to keep it from sliding?

So the "vents" are for weight reduction .... that's it?

I have a question about the difference in some table saw tops . . . . I see some table saws with sides that are (for lack of a better word) "vented" - such as the images below . . . . . . while many others are not - such as the image below . . . What is the purpose...

I've found some reference images and such to help you understand what I am talking about. This first one is actually a vertical disc sander for the drum shells - so, if one were to go this route, it wouldn't be much of a deviation from the original idea I referenced in my initial post. (I...

Well, in a former community forum life (not this one - another completely different topic/themed forum), I actually had been suspended for being one of the few "non-conforming" members who partook in the "off topic / political discussion" section ... which, as you can imagine, often led to some...

Anyone know of any plans - or have any ideas - about how to take this homemade disc sander idea, but have the disc sander as the flat surface ... kind of like a motorized lazy susan type deal? (hope I described that clearly enough) The reason (and goal) for my question is because I like...

Whew ... I got it too and I couldn't figure out for the life of me what I could have done wrong. Glad it turned out to just be a glitch of some sort. I mean, I haven't even BEGUN to start causing trouble. :FIREdevil

I thought of that too, of course. I was just thinking that, perhaps, some kind of nailer might be handy for certain types of projects. Of course, I am still very much the novice DIY'er .... which is why I turn to you all for your experience and wisdom. :bowdown:

If you were responding to my additional posting ... you're most welcome. :thumbup:

How deep does the Rockwell Versacut ... well ... cut?

Well, for the most part, making shelves and - perhaps - some makeshift pallet type platforms. I really like the strength and feel of MDF - though I do also work with plywood. I have not yet used any kind of nailer, so that's why I wanted to ask (and try to learn) here. :)

I can't help but wonder how the Rockwell Versacut compares to the Harbor Freight Double Cut Saw I mean, for all intents and purposes, they seem capable of the same tasks .... with the HF Double Cut Saw being about $40-$50 less than the Versacut. Just sayin' and thinkin' ... that's all...
