OH ya! The bandsaw works beautifully, it's amazing, so simple, and preset and calibrated, very few moving parts, the genius is in the simplicity of the BS.

The jointer planer attachment, same, works fine, it's a little noisy but I think I just have to sharpen the blades and it'll quiet down.

An MK V is old enough for me. The only tools I restore are pencils. :lol: 

@John Morris, William Ng has the best video I've seen for sharpening jointer blades.

I had one of these doohickeys that worked pretty good. I gave it to the guy that I gave the Sears jointer to.

I decided to take some pictures of my shop to show my shop and when I came in and posted them I saw in one of the pictures a box that had a project I started a year or so ago and then forgot about posting anything for I went out and started on that project again.

  But then when I reread this original post by John no one was showing their shops for he was talking about other things so I didn't miss out on the shops thingy..

John, & Gene,

Larry, don't upload anymore GIF's, it's taxing our resources. Please shoot me a file full of the GIF's you'd like to have here, and I can load them up in our emoticon menu. Thanks!

Sorry John, I haven't been uploading them they're in my attachments.
