    I prefer reasonably priced American made machines. If that means used, so be it.

    Over 20 years as a full-time meat cutter, and about 30 years as a hobbyist woodworker. I've got all my digits, complete. You can have your SawStop.

    Well Billy, what table saw are you using ? I have and like the older Delta Contractor's table saws with a Unifence. I was lucky enough to find what I consider to be very rare for the saw, a removable outfeed table hardware kit, new, and in the box. It has been a great accessory.

    In one way cool, in another way kind of depressing thinking of more manufacturing jobs gone.

    CharlieL got a reaction from Gunny in Hand Planes, worth ?   
    Hi, I have four hand planes that I
    'd like to sell, but unfortunately I don't know much about hand planes. even the identification / model can be a job to figure out I'm finding out. I've had these since new, early to mid 80's I'm guessing, and never really used them. There is no rust on them, all in pretty good condition in my opinion. Two of them are Stanley's, and the other two are Sears, all of them were made in England. The Stanley bench plane is a 14", and the Sears bench plane is a 9". The Stanley block plane is a low angle, and the Sears is a regular block plane. Any idea of the approximate worth of these planes ? Or do you need more info ?

    To each his own, but a HF or Shop Fox dust collector wouldn't be my choices. And I'm far from being rich, I just try to buy wisely.

    Yeah, I'm looking air a paper towel holder / shelf made of sheet metal that Rockler sells for $20 plus shipping. I'm deciding weather it's worth it for me to make, instead of just buying it.

    Depends on what your time is worth, and how good you are at metal working. I'm pretty sure that I have a new piece of metal that would work for it. A leaf spring or a mower blade isn't going to be flat.
