I played around a little bit and made a few pen/pencil holders (using a box template site) as simple gifts. The MRR initial box goes to the spouse of a friend and the GMM initial box has been given to my son. The reverse side of my son's gift is the company logo for where he works. I cut/pasted...

I don't have that brand of sweeper - but I have one of similar design. I don't recall the brand and I'm posting from home - not from my shop next door. Anyway - it's probably about 20 years old and mine is almost all plastic - and I'm certain is more flimsy than the model you've posted above...

I've got a 45W O2 laser (Glowforge Pro) that a relative purchased for a business and was no longer using. It wouldn't be a first choice in terms of brand, but the price was too good to pass up - and I'm considering this a learning process with the technology. I've got a few other pics showing...

First project - replaced paper sticker labels with wooden labels engraved with the new to me laser.

My dust collector system uses a 120V relay triggered by a 12v signal which is toggled "on" from each dust collection gate (near each machine). When I manually open the gate, a microswitch is closed which sends the 12V signal to the relay, hence my dust collector is then turned on. I used simple...

Sold this locally on Fb MP.

I bought a used Jet JSG-96 Benchtop Disc/Belt Sander a few years back - but it's got a 9" disk rather than 12".

I modified/upgraded the fence on my metal bandsaw using a t-nut from some metal clamping hardware I had. I cut and filed the t-nut a little narrower to fit into the slot underside. Also like what RTM above mentioned, I had to clean up the slotted arc as the width was not consistent along the...

I got my samples earlier this week and got in the shop to try them out yesterday. I found an immediate use for the 20 bit holder. I'm a hobbyist woodworker with a dedicated detached workshop and am constantly drilling through holes, or drilling countersinks for wood screws - and then of course...

I like the combination of maple, cherry and walnut. Finish is mineral oil. PM me if you want to get in touch and I'll talk you through the design/construction.

I've got an unrestored grinder missing a few parts. It's obviously missing the left side guard, as well as the safety shields. What you see in the pictures is what you get - but it does run smoothly and coasts down to a stop. I'm in the NE metro Atlanta area and prefer local pickup. I will ship...

Looks like wenge to me - but I've only been doing woodworking for about 45 years.

When I was considering purchasing the sliding attachment for panel cutting on my Sawstop, the Woodcraft employee showed me their setup in the classroom that uses the Jessem stock guides. He said in their 2 or 3 year use with all different levels of students using the saw with holddowns - they...

Fireplace mantel made about 7 years ago and the entertainment center made a few years later to match.

I removed the drum and then the snap ring from one end of the shaft which allows the arbor to be removed. I confirmed the "race" wall in the drum is definitely worn from both bearings - it's not the bearings themselves. Both bearings drop right in with no resistance, and there is a raised lip of...

Ball bearings.

I've got a question for anyone that might have restoration experience related to this sander - or one with a similar design. Our woodworking guild was gifted several vintage tools. I volunteered to take 2 of them and clean them up, inspect them, and repair/replace wiring or parts that were...

I built my 38' x 60' stick framed shop about 10 years ago. Contractor poured the slab, and I had a 4 man team set trusses, sheathing and shingles after I framed all the walls. Everything else I did myself (siding, trim, windows, door, garage door, wiring, painting, epoxy floor) with a little...

That's a great top box - I love mine.

Any one have information on a replacement v-belt? I just picked up one of these saws at an estate sale Friday - pictures to come. The current belt is very, very likey original - and is dried out/frayed - and slips when trying to cut angle iron. My research seems to indicate it's a 3v-350 - or...
