  1. So I'm working on a project that has many firsts for me. First time creating mortise and tenon joints, first time using my mortise attachment for my drill press, first time using my table saw tenon jig. Creating the mortises went fairly well once I got the attachment set up properly. The tenon jig, not so much. I think I need to do finite adjustments with my gauge to make sure it's perfectly square to the miter slot. I used the table saw to cut part of the tenons and the band saw for the rest. My tenons ended up as trapezoid shapes instead of rectangles! See pictures below. This particular project doesn't require perfection, hence why I'm starting with it, but I'd like to learn how to do better for the next time around. Can anyone offer suggestions on what I did wrong and how to correct it for next time? Thanks!
  2. Just a quick little comment here. I love perusing the Facebook Classifieds, I never buy anything, but it's fun, I guess what I'm doing is yard sale hopping from my arm chair, anyway it occupies about a half hour of my day, I like to see old trucks for sale, antique furnishings, and during my perusing I have noticed that woodworking machinery seems to be tanking, the values. If there is a time to get into woodworking and anyone wants to out fit a shop with second hand, at least here on the left coast, the values are pretty danged low. I'm seeing quality Delta and Powermatic table saws for 5 or 600 bucks, and other machinery at a 1/2 or less of what they were bought for. This saw is going for 600 bucks, this is a good saw, just a couple years ago this saw would have been no less than 1200 bucks used in my area. Don't know what's driving this but I found it interesting.
  3. Well I have discovered the solution for that board too short. Article from American Woodworker from Summer 1987
  4. well here is the shop, daughter #2 showed me how, my my its so simple, lol, hope i don't forget how. pic one is from south side, you can see the re located chop saw, gonna build base cabinets in length of about 10 ft and a few uppers above. #2 is from in front of lathes, you can see the baker racks we use for parts and drying racks. also above the clean room (8x20) you can see the mezanine where i store a lot of exotic lumber. #3, is a shot from table saw to rear door, orange cabinet holds a mini mill, and to the left you can hardly see is a grill covering a metal lathe, ( i dable making old, old gun parts) #4 corner where the band saws, drill presses, you can see a groove jig , this one i got right, worked out. #5 shot from by the orange cabinet jointer, 15 inch planer and table sw in pictures #6 see old router table attached to a mech box, its gonna go away later this week, and general work space, #7 The new router able, hope to have up and running later this week now that i know how to post pics, i'll throw some up once in a while rj in az
  5. Kickback waiting to happen. This one is not even from a Chinese company, it's a Canadian one (Though I don't know where it's manufactured).. A battery powered table saw.
  6. I saw this on Craigslist. I didn’t know the existed but what a cool concept. https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/tls/7559512644.html Paul
  7. I thought I would try making TS cut dovetails. I used a special grind (10-deg) TS blade, an Incra HD 1000 miter gauge, and a flush trim router bit. I made a sled which attached to my miter gauge. Using a marking gauge, I laid out the tail height on a sacrificial board a smidge higher than the material thickness, tilt my TS blade 10-deg, and raised the blade to the desired height. I ganged my L/R drawer side boards and cut the tails simultaneous. Because the tails were symmetrical on the front bd and the rear top bd, the tail cutting went fast. I clamped a block to the sled to allow me to make repeat cuts by flipping and rotating the boards between cuts. After the tails were cut, I laid out the pins, the same way you would if the dovetails were cut by hand except, I used a 0.5 mm mechanical pencil instead of a marking knife. I did not need a knife kerf and the pencil line is easier to see. Sorry no pic. Now, I changed out my blade to a flat bottom blade and set the height the same height as the special grind blade. Using the Inca miter gauge rotated to 10-degree, I started to cut the pins. After the pins are cut to the initial setting, rotate the miter gauge to minus 10-degree and cut the other side. Do not change your set-up. When cutting the pins always error on not cutting enough material. I used a coping saw to rough cut the pins and then cleaned-up the bottoms using a ¾” dia. flush trim router bit. My initial fit-up revealed that I had 3 pins which needed more material removed. Because I was using a miter gauge, I could re-cut either side of the pin. I use a pencil scribble to mark where the pin material had to be removed. You may see a #1 and #2 marked on either side of the pins. These markings helped me use the correct miter gauge setting. Because I used symmetrical set-up/cutting to make the tails, I used symmetrical set-up/cutting to cut the pins wherever possible. Because of this technique it appears in the pics that I was off my line when cutting the pins, but the fit-up reveals something different. In some locations the pins did not need to be marked. As I gain experience using this technique, I will learn where to mark and not mark. The pics of the tails and pins are from my 2nd effort and before glue-up. Sorry, I did not get many set-up pictures. The holes that are in some of the pieces are for Blum Tandem undermount draw slide attachment. For me, I’m sure this technique is faster than cutting them by hand. I am pleased with the results. Danl
  8. I will tell you about the tips that everyone may know but that I remind myself of from time to time. This can, of course, applies to many machines. Grizzly Table Saw safety tips are essential for any woodworker. By following a few simple tips, you can help keep yourself and your family safe while using this powerful tool. We all know that accidents happen, but there are some things you can do to help prevent them. Here are some safety tips for using your Grizzly table saw: Always use the guards that come with the saw. This will help protect you from the blade. Be sure to unplug the saw when you're not using it. Keep your fingers away from the blade. Be careful when cutting through hard materials, such as metal or wood with nails in it. Always wear safety glasses when using the saw. following these simple safety tips will help you avoid accidents while using your Grizzly table saw. Thank you for your precious time.

  10. Check out my Table saw/band saw fence. I used two dial indicator magnet bases for the saw attachment. One side works just like a fence and the other side has a removable feather board.
  11. I have the first edition and Jim Tolpin has written an updated version. I did not read the whole book, just looked at the pictures . Well I did read some because I have made several jigs from the books and still use them today. The jigs and other tips are very well illustrated and information is easy to understand to build the jigs. I would recommend this for anyone from newbie to experienced woodworker. He covers everything from tuneup , blades, jigs, crosscuts ripping , accessories, and grooves and dados and much more. You can get it as low as 1.99 at Barnes and Noble or 4.99 at Thrift Books. I have on my saw the magic fence pictured below. it can be added to for tenon jig that can do more than tenon.
  12. Everyone hates these sort of days....Mom is staying in an assisted living center....her house has been sold....the "kids" and their kids have to go in and clean things out, before the new owners arrive. What we don't want, will go to an estate Auctioneer.... So....Dad was a Mechanic...all his life....had two full sets of about every tools Craftsman, S&K, Proto ever sold...I got the set he used at the house...I also got a ladder or two.. 8 footer. Got a couple lawn chairs.. Not sure how well this will do in gravel... Have spent many an hour on this thing..with these in use.. Anyone know what this big tool was for? There was quite a bit of tools for working on cars.. I'm keeping these two.. Just in case I change my own oil... Or a tire. As to what all of these are sitting on? The wheels are in the house, along with the wrenches, mitre gauge, and blade guard (2) While there was a drill index... There was also this.. Drill Mug? There were a few other power tools.. Weller, B&D, Craftsman. Framing square is an oldie. Tag on the one 2' level says "FURROW"...the one behind it? Port Austin, MICH. USA.....about as old as I am. Then there was this box... Not sure what that is...but what IS inside? Taps..lots of taps..some were a bit BIG... The two bigger ones are both 7/8"....from there on down....regular and Pipe thread ones. Coffee can full of hole saws? Anyone need these yellow plugs? In addition to about every size wrench, screwdriver, socket sets ( all of which in now in my roll-around) and pliers...I haven't even started on this bucket.. Along with quite a few electrical tools and supplies. A "Trouble Light", and a cord in a reel ( needs a plug)...We had a pickup truck and the van loaded...whew. Need to find a decent 8" saw blade..sometime. BTW..what is this "level" Almost like looking through a gunsight....Bonus question.. Says Stanley on it?
  13. "Back From The Archives" Good day gents. Please forgive me if I have some problems understanding how this works. I am new here although I have been involved with OWWM for three years.
  14. My table saw (10" Dewalt portable) is everything I want and need. It does a great job, saws straight & square. It did not come with a zero clearance throat plate and none is available for that mode.. I made one that works just fine. The only glitch is that When I use it I can't use the riving knife. I can not use it because it would weaken the home made throat plate too much. I could use an 8 inch blade and make one that would work, but that is too labor intensive and time too. Today I was cutting several small pieces using the home made zero clearance plate and when I finished I put my regular throat plate back on. I forgot the riving knife. First cut after that, the small piece I was cutting changed positions and kicked back hitting me in the neck. I never have my face or head behind. It put a pretty good hit on me, but did not do much damage. Only bled slightly. The it occurred to me that if it hit harder and over a bit.....it would hit my juggler vein. I will use an 8 inch blade with the riving knife from this point forward. I was lucky. I will also change my sawing stance. Maybe a face shield too

  17. I have seen the SawStop demonstration with the hotdog a dozen times. But I always felt that it was done under premium conditions to ensure that it worked properly with optimal results. At several of the demonstrations I had questioned the demonstrators and requested that they place the hotdog in a glove so we could see the results. My request was always denied and I was always told, “You shouldn’t wear gloves at the table saw.” Well, I live in the real world where other contractors are on my equipment, we work in extremely harsh conditions, and I can’t keep control of everyone every time they use the table saw. So, even though it is unsafe, contractors wear their gloves at the table saw all the time. That is just reality. My local cabinet hardware supplier, A&H Turf, recently became an authorized SawStop dealer and so I made the request to them and they took me up on it. This video shows how far a SawStop will drag the glove into the machine before it kicks off. I hope you enjoy my version of the SawStop test and stay safe out there;) Your friend in the shop, Todd A.

  18. I unexpectedly acquired this saw when I picked it up for someone who then changed their mind about wanting it. It is an eight inch tilt top table saw made by the Henry Tool Company of London Ontario Canada during the 1940's. It is cast iron and quite the heavyweight for it's small size. As I really did not need it I put it aside in the rat hole. Finally decided to give it the onceover and move it along to someone who appreciated it. Fairly simple overhaul as there is not much to these saws. Biggest effort was replacing the arbor bearings. The rest was clean, polish and paint. Also cleaned up the 1/2 HP General Electric motor I got with it. I had a not so old Delta stand around so I mounted it on that. Surprisingly it runs smooth as can be. The real frustration came when I went to sell it. I listed it on line and got two responses the first night. The first guy said he was coimg but then did not show. He at least called me and explained that his wife was unexpectedly working overtime and as they only had one vehicle he could not get here that night. I told him to call me by a certain time the next day with a time when he could get to my place. I explained to him the other guy was anxious and in fairness he had to commit to buying the saw. The deadline I gave him came and went without hearing from him so I phoned the second guy who told me he would be right over. When the second guy showed up accompanied by his wife he said he wanted the saw but forgot to stop at the bank on the way. Said he would go to the bank and be right back. He never returned and never called. In the mean time first guy calls and says he really , really wants saw. I explained second guy just left to go to the bank and was coming back to get saw. So two buyers but no sale. I relisted the ad the next day and who should call but the first guy. He has a friend with a truck and can be right there if it is still for sale. He showed up an hour later cash in hand. Turns out he was a nice young fellow who just seemed to be a little disorganized. We got to talking and he told me that he had recently purchased a Craftmaster bandsaw. I went into my rathole and came out with a box of spare parts from a Craftmaster bandsaw I had purchased for parts. Told him he could have them. He left one happy camper. By the way, I lost money on the saw but not enough to matter.
