Hey there's at least 7 of us that comment. Usually there's more voyeurs out there who look but don't comment. Gives us a behind the scenes look into how it's done for a profit.

 

Some threads I started I dont even know if I got 7 comments

 

LeeroyMan, you give us ideas, and we like to see progress on projects. Keep up the good work.

 

i agree about the looky loos,why not chime in and contribute.ive had projects that get liked but the dont say anything ? hell if i like a project ive always given a comment. leeroy dont ever think what you give us is not 110% appreciated. hell if ive got only one guy that liked what ive given,i feel it was worth my effort.

 

OK, Okay..
Then here's a LeeRoy Tip! YMMV

Sometimes, when applicable like below, Here is what I do.
I'm dadoing the grooves for the recessed backs. (3/8" dado) I don't like the jointer pads or whatnot, I just use my hands but to give better grip, I take a damp rag and go over the surface. Grips like a champ, lets me push down firmly without my hands sliding.

now see thats a cool tip.when you said it i realized right away how well that would work.

 

Interesting tip. I may try that one on the next set of dado cuts. I really don't like all the new fangled safety things on machines. Of course most of mine are at least 30 years old. Table saw is 60 years old, no safety stuff on that.

damn wild man !!!!

 

I believe in safety in the shop. Just hate ones on my tools, they get in the way. And I will take precautions, the other day I was cutting some aluminum stock with the chop saw, clamped the stock to the fence.

 

Thats useful for me since I dont always grab the pads either. I'm guilty of not using the safety devices on my table saw took them all off.

i new you were a wild man ! so what are considered safety devices ?

 

All I have is a blade sticking out of a cast iron top and a fence

 

That sounds about right. Works like a charm.

I cant see nothing with the guard on. Dropped the riving knife down also. Got in the way using the dado set and never put it back up

I think this is one, I can't remember the last time it has seen action though.
I keep it around for OSHA

 

LeeRoy that's what happens when you forget to lock the doors when you leave for the night. The riff raff sneak in and make a mess.

It's all good,
I think we are all considered riff raff…..

 

Here is the top section box, almost ready to put the poplar front on.

Tried to get a shot down the line to show how straight they are, but it didn't show very well.

Here is the top section completed, still needs to be cut to length, detail sanded, edges eased, etc, etc…

On to the next,
rinse and repeat, (this one is 3" thick)

 

I can see that thing is straight as an arrow. Is that a Wexler clamp? Whats the height of that bench?
