Update on our move to Bowling Green, KY Part 2
Gene Howe replied to Allen Worsham's topic in Free for All
Sound great, Allen. Fingers crossed for ya. -
How old is that video, I wonder. They might have quit offering it. Or, it's a special order item. I didn't see any of the stability benefits Doug mentioned that I don't get with the Tenryu. They're a very well balanced blade. Try one. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

IDK. Lemme check. BRB. Nope. The biggest is 1" on their 12" and 14" blades.

As you know, I'm not too tech savvy. What is the reason a forum would time you out? And, why would a user log out?

No wonder you're moving to hand tools. Seriously, they sell decent blades. Don't know who makes them. I seem to recall that maybe they're Forrests. But, ya gotta try Tenryu. IMO, the best blade out there. And, I've tried a bunch. I get glue ready rips and their crosscut blades and miter pro blades are phenomenal.

I know a lot about machinery...if scissors and can openers count.

Moved it to Bugs and Issues, Jesse. I haven't had a problem. But, my password is saved in the computer. Never have to enter it. I'm lazy and have a poor memory.

The only 5/8 hole blade I've had problems with were painted red. Those massive Shopsmith arbors do a good job of damping flutter but, most good blades are so well balanced that it's rarely a problem. There are exceptions...see my first sentence. Due to the hassle of installing the arbor in the blade, most guys have 4 or 5 mounted up in reserve. Doug mentioned 8" blades and, moving in to smaller work, when I need new blades, they'll be 8" ones.

Artie, here's a couple different screw options. http://www.spax.us/products-overview.html https://www.mcfeelys.com/8-x-3-4-self-drilling-wood-screws-305-stainless-steel-bugle-head-square-drive-qty-100.html

Who We Are
We are a woodworking community with an emphasis on sharing and learning the skilled craft of woodworking and all of its related disciplines. Our community is open to everyone who wishes to join us. We support our American veterans and active duty, being a veteran is not a prerequisite to join. Join us now!
Objective
Of course just like most online woodworking communities we are centralized in the arts, crafts, and trades that are woodworking. But, we have another focus in our Patriot Woodworker community, we are the only woodworking community that was founded on our care and concern for our disabled veterans.
Volunteer
The Patriot Woodworkers are an all volunteer community, from the staff and hosts who run our online woodworking community to the members who frequent our forums, you'll find volunteers in all of us. We are not on a payroll, unless you consider the spiritual rewards gained from volunteering, as compensation.
Education
One of the many projects we are working on is a wiki for our online community. A wiki is a great way for woodworkers and enthusiasts to share their knowledge to others, and to impart their knowledge for others to learn from, and utilize as well for their own benefit. We hope you'll consider being a wiki contributor.
