  1. Spalted Maple Candy Dish Flat

    This was a wet blank which I turned out thin and dried quickly. Came out really straight and nice. Some designs lend themselves to drying the way you want, and others insist on becoming something else in the kiln. Thanks for looking
  2. Bed

    Simple twin bed made of yellow pine. Mortise and tenon, dovels, polyurethane finish. Can be taken apart. The only tools used were chisels, hand saw, sand paper and drill (did not have plane at the time). It was ment to save money and be a bit better than big box store furniture. Matches the...
  3. Over Under Shotgun Pen

    This was a fun project Made from African Blackwood and Ebony. Sold it to a guy at work for $55.00. Then sold another one by showing it around work. Now I just need to make myself one.
  4. Adjustable Trivets

    LumberJocks Toughcut and Lazyman posted expandable trivet projects that caught my eye, so I decided to turn out a few to see how they would sell at a craft show. They sold well enough (@ $20 apiece), I decided to make another batch. These are all birch. Here are the projects I based these on...
  5. Maloof Rockers with a twist.

    Over the past year I have built like 20 some Maloof rockers but these two are a bit different. They are both originally dining chairs but I altered them a bit and fashioned on some rockers. The chairs are made primarily from tiger maple (the lowback is all tiger maple and the other has walnut...
  6. Japanese shelf

    This Japanese inspired shelf has only three length sizes of boards, 8", 16" and 32". The Japanese believe in simple designs that are usefull and attractive. This project was very inexpensive, quick and easy to make. I used screws to connect it all together.

    I've checked all parts suppliers I know of with no luck. I'm flexible when it comes to sources up to and including old salvage parts. Anything to prevent me from having to purchase another bandsaw. If anybody can point me in the right direct I'm much obliged

    So I've noticed more burning and jumping of the blade (when it jerks after being wedged too tight) recently on my Craftsman TS I bought new in 2004. Previously I've aligned using the Big Hammer and block method on the back trunnion (near motor). I'd loosen the two bolts on the rear trunnion...

    I have a new Grizzly GO555LX bandsaw. When I try to tilt the table to the right, I always need to "lift" the table a little to get it to move. After that, I can set the table back on the trunnions and it will slide. Since I must "lift" the table, that means I lose the alignment of the table to...

    I purchased this saw used a few months ago. I have had trouble getting it setup correctly. The main problem is the blade is not parallel to the miter slots. It is off by 1/8". So, I loosened the back two and one of the front trunnion bolts and tried to bump it over with piece of wood and a...
  11. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I am new to woodworking in general as well as being brand new to LumberJocks.com. I've been wanting to get into woodworking and decided to pick myself up a Ryobi RTS21G table saw. It's an alright table saw, but I'm wishing I spent a bit more and got a DeWalt or Bosch. First thing that irked me...

    Hi all, I'm bringing an old Delta 12"/14" TS back to life, and the company I purchased from installed a dust collection well….duct that bolted beneath the blade. To keep the blade from tilting into the stationary ductwork, they tapped a hole in the rear trunnion bracket to prevent the...

    Hi, I picked up a Powermatic 66 built in 2002. It's in good shape but I decided to rebuild the entire saw since the height adjustment was locked up from layers of dried grease. I've cleaned it up really well, re-lubed everything, and installed new arbor bearings (might as well). When I...

    I'm giving my 152 series Craftsman saw (early 2000's?) a deep clean before I put on a new Vega fence system. It's been in fine working order for the most part for the ~8 years that I've had it, but it has some light rust on the inner bits. I'm trying to refurbish all of the inner motor mount...
  15. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    Hello all. I'm stuck on this procedure. I have an older Sears 10 in. contractors saw Model 113.298762. I've had to perform a bit of maintenance on the saw recently and just happened to notice today when looking at the blade compared to the insert that the blade is out of parallel with the...
  16. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    It was my fault, I (stupidly) stuck a piece of angle iron on the back undercarriage of my Grizzly G0576 Contractors Table Saw to use to pop out my zero clearance insert. When I adjusted the blade for a 45 degree cut it bumped into the angle iron and knocked off the blade alignment. I realigned...

    FYI - Picked up a 1990 PM66, low miles but sat unused in a garage for the last 10 years. A spritz of silicone spray got the tilt wheel gliding nicely but the raise/lower wheel was STIFF. Took everything apart - top, motor, trunnion out (thing is HEAVY) and found the shaft had congealed junk on...

    Apologies if this has been covered before, but I haven't been able to find anything. A friend purchased a Delta 36 630 Contractors saw and while helping him tune it, I found quite a bit of slop between the trunnions and the arbor assembly. The blade sits parallel with the insert slot when the...

    I have been having a hard time finding out if saw pals can be made to fit the Ridgid R4512. If you do not know what they are you can see them here. http://in-lineindustries.com/products/contractor-saw-pals/ Basically they allow for fine tuning the trunnions on contractor saws. The ⅜" version...
