  3. western red cedar is kinda expensive - so is SYP(Southern yellow pine) - white wood seems to be fairly cheap yet i've been posting on FF(Foresty Forums) about trying to sell some 36"+ white oak logs seems the log market is in the dumps right now. couldnt tell it by the price for lumber thou but yeah i'd use "western" red cedar for the siding and if you use wooden shingles i'd go with cedar too
  4. Nice project what specie are you going to make it out of? western red cedar? pine? or the borgs whitewood? (construction grade lumber)
  5. nice job vector i wonder how it would look with either mitered corner or solid corner posts either a different species or the same. guess there would be some options for some verity anyway lol

  11. hmm i wonder about just drilling a hole in the pulley and them epoxy a nut into it then the threads wouldnt tear out
  12. i have the dewalt saw when i got it and was setting it up i pulled it out of the box and put it on the stand everything else was already on it thou it came with a user manual and abunch of allen wrenches i never used them. The hold down was never put on i keep it with saw but never used it. i'd like to have the lamp that goes with it but feel its over priced and figure since i have 2 flex lamps i might mount one someday. the blower is like a small air compressor with a long hose to blow the dust away from you rather the towards. i think the dewalt is the best product for the money. about the only thing i dont like about it is the way the table is mounted it has alot of side to side play in it due to having left and right tilt which i dont use anyway but i'm sure i will at some point just dont really use the saw as much as i'd like to. i think for me the one best improvement that i can add is the foot pedal to lift the upper arm

    Wii

    yeah we bought the kids the Wii and and few games plus a 46" LCD tv for this last Christmas the kids play it all the time keeps them active where my nephew has a PS3 and PS2 and has hardly any other interests other then fishing and gaming. he's a farm kid thou i just cant understand why he dont find himself other hobbies that gets him outside but i guess he's the type not to like being outside unless he's helping me. blame i really need to use the sig feature lol
  18. Not sure how i should mount that! Right now its just sitting on the shaft for a mock up purpose. I'm thinking of either pinning it with a short piece of 1/8" rod or drilling a hole for a bolt to tighten it down. Each method has it downfalls. If i drill a 1/8" through hole that weakens the shafting and if i use the bolt the threads will tear out easy. whats your thoughts? I'm going to run into the same problem with the fly wheel axle. I thought at first I'd just drill out a pieces of the flat stock I bought and weld it to the axle shaft but that will make it hard to get apart later if i ever need to take it apart. I was thinking I need to dig around and find a piece of pipe with an inner 5/8" dia. and weld that to the flat stock and use a cotter pin to mount it to the axle. blame
