    Table Saw purchase

    http://fortwayne.craigslist.org/tls/5009155575.html Think it's a good deal provided it works well? Anything to look for when testing it? I couldn't get anything to come up with the model number listed on google.

    Made myself a router table

    I've had this router for a couple years now. I got it in a package tool deal via craigslist. My guess is that it's from the late 60's. I finally got some bits from harbor freight and started using it and decided a router table was in order. Got the top at my local Habitat Re-Store for $3...

    Can I plug my compressor into this?

    Here are the details for my compressor motor. I can change the male plug to match if it will work. I can switch an outlet and light fixture but that is about the extent of my electrical knowledge.

    My new parts tumbler (Pictures)

    I found this old thing in the basement. I was originally going to use an old 110v dryer motor with a 5 gallon bucket but I think this will work too. It was in the house when we moved in, I wouldn't use it for ice cream anymore but I'm running my first few pieces through right now. First few...

    Anyone have a C-man drill press like this?

    Picked this up at a garage sale a couple years ago for $2. My black and decker drill fits in there perfectly. When I finally get my garage clean, I will mount it to one of my workbenches. Anyone else got something like this?

    Oil Bucket Screen

    Was draining some oil out of some of my buckets today and realized I hated holding the bucket there waiting for the oil to drip out. I made this today to solve that problem. Just found some old screen and some rope and voila! I keep the oil in that bucket until it fills and then its off to recycle.
