I lost the yellow safety tab that clicks into power switch for my lathe (sorry, I don't know the terminology). Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? Or is it possible to make one? And yes, I have been using a tab from another tool in the meantime, I just want a more permanent fix...

With all the great saws showing up on Craig's List at dirt cheap prices I am temped, but…….. It does everything I have ever wanted it to do. I am not going to be making furniture or cabinets except for maybe an occasional project just to try it. The biggest issue is the tune up. My old...

Every now and then it seems we run into some conflicts with members who are at odds for one reason or another. Some members are die hard craftsman who only want to see WOOD used in each post, others ask questions, share experiences and give out priceless information. Of course there are also the...

This saw is a recent purchase from Craigslist and everything on it works properly. I go this saw to use for cutting bowl blanks from logs and perhaps some re-sawing and also in my construction of Cigar Box Guitars. I am looking to add a riser kit to increase the depth of cut and add some type...

I want to replace the deck boards. The current deck boards are adhered with nails. Considering Midwest weather changes, should I use nails, rather than screws, when replacing the boards to allow for better expansion/contraction?

I am rehabbing a craftsman table saw 113.29940. The switch is all but totally shot and I want a paddle switch for safety. Tomorrow, this switch http://woodworker.com/onoff-switch-wstop-enclosure-mssu-140-066.asp?search=paddle%20switch&searchmode=2 will be arriving via UPS. Does anyone have...

Hey all, first post here. I'm in a jam and need some advice. I bought my first bandsaw from a guy off of OfferUp. It's a Tradesman (Craftsman's step-child) 10" three-wheel bandsaw. I was skeptical, but the guy sold it to me for $20 bucks, so how could I refuse. I've used it for several projects...

Hey all! I'm new to the forum - thanks for taking a look at my question! I just picked up a Delta 34-670 table saw off CL. Of course, it worked great when I tried it at the guys' house, but I get it home, and now it won't turn on. My buddy and I checked/confirmed the switch and the breaker...

I apologise in advance for the long post. If you can make it all the way thru, I'd love to get some feedback. I'm in a situation where I'm not sure to keep going and try to keep a repeat client with high end, interesting, portfolio worthy projects, or stand my ground and almost certainly lose...

(Finally) Upgrading from a Shop-Vac So for the longest time I've heard how much a Shop-vac doesnt quite cut it when it comes to larger machines, and how much quieter "real" DC machines are compared to a shop-vac, but being a weekend warrior, my budget is limited, and space was a big issue for...

Found the site and think it is great. Lots of talented workers here. I do have a question for all you experts. I want to replace my fence on a Delta Contractors Table Saw Model 34-444. The fence rail is 44 inches long. The table is 20" wide by 27" deep. I hope that is all that is needed to get...

HELP! Can anyone give me advice on replacing bearings on my planer cutterhead? Last week my planer blew a bearing on the cutterhead. It is a NuMark 12" planer, more than 30 years old. The company went out of business many years ago. I cannot determine how to remove the cutterhead. Here's...

I couldn't find much help with this on the net, so when I figured it out I thought I would post this here. I needed to change the belt on the 22-580, 13" planer, so took the extra I had for a few years, and removed the covers from the machine. At the motor shaft end, there is an allen head...
