Above 1200 Sq/FT Rebuilt after a small gas leak

A plumber friend of mine gave me a 5 gallon water heater about a year ago. Bought a new faucet and got it installed. Did not know how much I love hot water

Wanted to extend the feed table so I disected my old Craftsman table saw and drilled taped and bolted 60 lbs on. Now I am looking for another Craftsman saw for the other side

Looks like Santa showed up a little late this year. Very nice.

Figured I wanted an extension on my Dewalt table saw. Drilled it and bolted extension on. End of saw is not square

Drilled and tapped some leveling bolts and wallah it aligns

The saw plate has to be past the extension so the fence still works. And yes the extension is heavier than the table saw

Good stuff.

I have been looking for table extensions and they are fairly expensive and not all that heavy. I wanted to add weight to the planer. Some of the issues with the Woodmaster is chatter. I think it is just sheer mass. All the other big planers are 3 times the weight of this one. I had the table saw up in my loft and have not used it in years. It is really heavy and only uses a 8" blade. The top was just bolted on. It is cast iron and Is machined flat and square.
My wife bought the jointer for my birthday which was just before Christmas and I have been looking for a planer for months. They are usually $1500 or more or 4 hour drive away. A few came up that were close and reasonable but sold before I could contact them. I wanted at least a 15" and this is a 18".

Picked up another table saw. $25 with a fence and T slide. The stand it is on is worth $25

All cut and clamped down. Plywood is warped terrible. Hope it streightens out some

Cabinet construction is great, cool tool acquisitions and refurb, too!

Nice snag on the new saw

I have not been slacking this winter I had the offer to get all the free hard maple I wanted first load is off to the sawmill

The next 18 pick up loads stacking them all behind my pole barn. Should be enough for about 6 years

I just dropped a 50'-60' maple today. I'm pretty sure it's soft, but you can have it for free. I'm guessing no, but got to ask.

 

[Jo Diesel]

Thanks for the offer but I have all the wood I need for a while and a lot of projects got put off so I have dry wood in the future.

Cabinets are painted. My son wanted white finally getting doors hung

Cabinets are all done. My son thinks he is selling his house so they are going up here

Wasn't planning on it but they will look good on the wall

At least the cabinets won't go to waste. Did you take the Vette for a spin?

 

[Jo Diesel]

Cleaned out the back of the shop ground the floor and applied some industrial epoxy that I got for free

 

[Jo Diesel]

Here is the after picture. Still have to do the front but will have to be warmer

 

[xtremek]

That looks fantastic. Will you have enough to do everything, once it gets warmer?

 

[Jo Diesel]

Yes I have enough epoxy. It doesn't cure below 60. Had another florescent bulb burn out so I am converting to some LED's that I got from Amazon

 

[Jo Diesel]

They are definitely brighter

 

[xtremek]

How much did those run you?

They are cheaper now. $45.86 for 8 lights which will do 2 of my fixtures. I have had them in my garage for a while now and so far so good.

I started this press a long time ago but I just needed it for U joints so it is going to get finished

VERY COOL. Congrats

Got my Freightliner fired up and back in the shop

 

[Jo Diesel]

Been acquiring parts

 

[xtremek]

Mini-bath? Remind me again please, what are the plans for the FL?

 

[Jo Diesel]

Sorry I have not updated in awhile. Been sick as **** lately. No shower or water heater. Will have sink and toilet with fresh water tank with water pump and a waste tank. Got the 110v wired to a new breaker panel and a power inverter that should be able to run a small fridge

 

[xtremek]

A little progress is better than no progress.

 

[Jo Diesel]

Running wires for rear speakers and backup camera

 

[Jo Diesel]

Found some melted wires. Explained why the cab lights didn't work
