  1. another look into the haunted forest ... broke my morticing machine [email protected]#$!!!!

    Last weekend I started 5 frames. The first three are now complete. The first 2 already posted. Broke my Delta Morticing machine last night. It's the second one I broke in the past 3 years. Broke off the indexing teeth at the base of the handle. The last two frames will need to be machined...

  4. Rolling Printer Stand/File Cabinet

    This is my printer stand that I just completed. Its made of birch ply with iron-on edge banding which, incidentally, didn't take the stain so well and looks pretty sad. I made a lot of mistakes on this one, but I learned a lot as well, so I'll chalk it up as a victory.

    I could not figure which forum where this questions should go. I said "no" last weekend to an expedition over to Lee Valley Tools in Ottawa (someone wants me to pick out a birthday present)... because I have not had a chance to find places to buy wood nearby or in between. I'd like to optimize...
  6. Wood & Lumber
    Been woodworking as a hobby for a couple of years. I know of Hardwood Lumber and More in Milford. Does anyone out there get their lumber from another source. I grew up in rural Indiana and there were sawmills all around, but there don't seem to be any in the Greater Cincinnati area. Any help...

    Hello. I am doing a remodel on my house and getting ready to start the interior trim. My house is over 100 years old and I am looking to trim out the windows. Previously I had no casing and just had it finished with drywall, corner round and an apron that was made out of poplar. Question I have...
  8. Wood & Lumber
    Good Morning Jocks! So, I've always just gone ahead and purchased my lumber at the big'ol orange store. Of course, that means picking through piles and trying to find something that isn't too warped. A lot of times I'm just grabbing common pine boards, since I'm really still just in practice...
  9. Wood & Lumber
    I have run into a problem that I cannot seem to solve with an efficient method. Looking to cut down time and effort without damaging material. I'm sure you've seen these tiny 3/8" sticks that separate material. There is a chemical burn that gets left on the face of the material from these sticks...

    I am moving to Northwest Indiana (Porter County, about 80 miles ESE of Chicago) and incredulously the closest lumber yard I can find that sells rough stock is in Indianapolis, IN - a 2.5 hour ride South. If you're from a relatively Northwest portion of Indiana and have a particular lumber yard...

    Atlanta Woodworkers: Great place to buy wood on the South Side I've done a little complaining recently about how I was treated at a big box store, so I wanted to balance the karma out and tell everyone who might not know about a great place to buy wood on the south side of Atlanta. Atlanta...

    Even though Canada supplies so much wood, I am having trouble getting good wood at fair prices in and around the Toronto area (specifically Mississauga). I dont like what HomeDepot or Rona has…. Any recommendations for places that people here use? Do you get it shipped (like order online or over...
  14. Wood & Lumber
    A friend of mine says he buys $10,000 worth of logs every couple weeks (runs them through his mill) and sends them to lumber buyers in Canada. Within 3-4 weeks they send him a check for $12,000-$14,000 depending on the grade. Is this possible? I am in the business of buying Cherry Veneer...

    Man, …what a great weekend! I recently remodeled a master bath which included making a new custom cherry vanity. Well, that meant we had to take a two hour road trip to pick up materials at Owl Hardwood Lumber in Desplaines, Illinois. I decided to go on a Saturday so my wife, Lynn could go...

    Hi- Does anyone know of any good places in Central NJ to buy woodworking lumber? I live in Manalpan, NJ (not far from Freehold, Princeton, and New Brunswick) and I have not been able to find a lumber yard/store with a decent selection of wood. I'm always driving through Northern NJ for work...
