  1. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I recently purchased from a local widow my first hybrid table saw, a 2009 Hitachi C10FL. It had been sitting idle for a few years, so there was much cleaning and adjusting to be done. I'm at the tail end of all that, and in running test cuts it occurred to me how 'tall' this saw is on its...

    I just saw this in Woodworkers Journal e-zine Table Saw Blade Height Somewhere along my pathway of woodworking, I was told that a table saw blade should be limited to 1/8th inch above the wood being cut. In pictures in different magazines, I have seen saw blades raised as much as 2 inches...
  3. Safety in the Woodworking Shop
    Hello all this is my first post here in the forums. I had a question of something I am curious about. I am looking to build a workshop soon under my carport attached to my house. The dimensions are roughly 12' x 28' for the most part but the thing is the height of my shop from floor to...

    Hello, Yep, I bought a cheap table saw because I move every two years and didn't want the movers to damage my Woodshop centerpiece. I've had a kobalt table saw from lowes for about 4 months, and it has worked awesome. Unfortunately I was doing some dado cuts and noticed the blade height...
  5. Focus on the Workspace
    Hello, I just purchased a new home in the Colorado mountains that has a beautiful 70X40 unfinished shop on the property. It is a 2X6 framed building with 16 feet to the bottom of the rafters. I plan to segment the shop into two sections 30X40 for my woodworking shop and 40X40 for my automotive...

    For those that are height challenged or confined to a wheelchair in the shop, I just bought a new Grizzly G0690 3 hp cabinet table saw. the 34 inch height was to high and I was unable to get pictures of the underside of the cabinet to know for sure what I was going to run in to. I was hoping to...

    Hey gang, So I got one of the Delta 36-725 T2's (the one with the tubular black frame; see https://www.lowes.com/pd/DELTA-Contractor-Saws-10-in-Carbide-Tipped-Blade-15-Amp-Table-Saw/1001385562), for 120 bucks, in damn near-destroyed condition. I restored it to pretty close to cherry, upgraded...

    Delta Shopmaster Bandsaw - SM400 - A Budget Bandsaw So I finally made an excuse to buy a new tool - a bandsaw to be precise. The problem is that I can not foresee a need for a heavy-duty model, nor can I justify its expense at this time. For that money, I could simply ask my wood supplier to...

    Machine and Table Heights I recently built a router table and when I was taking measurements around the shop to determine how tall to make it I realized something about my shop: my table saw is on blocks, my workbench is on blocks, my radial arm saw table is jacked up to about chest hight on...
  10. Designing Woodworking Projects
    Has anyone made one these themselves? The ones you would typically buy are metal and have hangers you hook in to a metal strip you attach to the crib. But I was thinking why not just make a wood platform for the mattress and attach it with a bolt or screw of some type in to the crib? When...

    As a beginner I recognise that I need to build the best workbench I can afford, taking into account my low skill level. Planning is essential and that's what I'm doing now, by reading all the stuff on the site and with a couple of books I have. One thing is puzzling me, the height of the bench...

    How often do you start a project and half way through, the light comes on and you redesign and salvage a project that may have ended up in woodstove? Today was one of those days for me, I started a box that a friend wanted for a valintine present and he had a few ideas of how he wanted it, so...

    Hi, We're renovating our place which features a sunken living room. Problem is…the ceiling is also lowered, and there's an opening on wall, and a concrete construction beam (outlined in red ) that runs over it. We want to put crown moldings into the living room that are about 5" tall, but don't...

    This question may be a bit vague and hard to answer, so I apologize in advance for any raised eyebrows this causes… I'm building a rolling cabinet that will house my shop vac to quiet it down, and will also house a Thien Cyclone Separator. The whole thing will server as a dust collector that...

    Has any one used biscuit's when makeing edgegrain cutting boards ? I am pretty sure it would not work with endgrain boards but thought it might help with the alingment and maybe cutdown on sanding time on edgegrain boards .
