  1. Well done Gary! Glad you could use the pattern.
  2. Welcome Travis, as I recall, you make cartoons as well. Sappy Sam. Pete
  3. Kris, my little shop is in the basement, in what used to be a bedroom before our nest emptied... The vac hose goes up into the ceiling and over to the utility room where the shop vac lives. The reason I put the vac in the other room was just for the noise. I can't put it outside here in Minnesota for obvious reasons, but perhaps you could. I also have a little box for painting and spraying adhesives that is vented outside similar to how a dryer vent works, see pic.
  4. Here's mine, suction from top and bottom of table, through the dust deputy, up through the ceiling and into the next room where the (remote controlled) shop vac is located. Works great, the only noise I hear is the suction. The drill press is also connected to this system. Pete https://youtu.be/XCWK-yJ1U4A
  5. I use a regular shop vac in another room operated by remote control. Had a lot of help on this from member "Multifaceted" (Carl Jacobs). I had severe COPD and had to remove as much sawdust as possible. How I made it. https://youtu.be/DnVFuMb4LqM Mounted on saw. With upgraded light. https://youtu.be/XCWK-yJ1U4A In use. https://youtu.be/5j7AcrcDiB0
  6. I also have the Harbor Freight switch.
  7. Here you go. You'll find a link to the manual here too. Pete https://www.skiltools.com/Tools/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?model=3335-07
  8. This is not what you asked for but.... Here's a list of the fonts I choose from. Hope it helps. Pete Scroll fonts NAMES.pdf
  9. Welcome neighbor! Pete
  10. I'm a basement dweller also. I have shop vac hoses to the top and bottom of the saw and to the the drill press. Vac is in another room operated by remote so it's quiet. Also a box to spray paints and adhesives that is ducted to outside like a dryer vent, so no fumes. I do have a router table and orbital sander in the garage, but don't spend too much time using those. Especially in the winter. Pete https://youtu.be/XCWK-yJ1U4A https://youtu.be/5j7AcrcDiB0
  11. Like Ron said, I keep mine in another room in the basement operated by a remote. All I hear is the sound of sucking air. Pete https://youtu.be/5j7AcrcDiB0
  12. I did modification shown in the video except I slotted the holes in the back by the pivot rather than the ones by the linkages. I also raised the back of the table by using a customized pivot thingy. The combination helped immensely. Pete customized pivot thingy, wood one was a prototype.

  14. I made a bunch of those tiny reindeer last year and used this from my local Menard's big box store. Pete
  15. Thanks Randy, I super glued it to a small piece of 1/8" ply. After cutting the coin, I trimmed the ply just outside the coin and dropped it in a dixie cup with a little acetone for 15 minutes. Pattern and wood fell right off the coin. I have to get a shorter chair so I can get my eyes closer to the blade.... Pete
  16. Kinda rough, but I did it. The cutting wasn't too bad, it was the staying on the line I had trouble with... Pete
  17. I went to 3 banks, seems they don't have any half dollars. Third bank had 1. Will try the mint. Pete
  18. Thank you Randy for taking the time to do this. I have been wanting to try this since I saw your first ones, maybe a year ago. Pete
  19. Hi Pete! Nice to meet you. Pete
  20. I made one as Ike did out of 1/8" ply for my old craftsman. Pete
  21. If you have a "dust collector port" you may have a craftsman? Pete
  22. Minnesota here, I vent to outside for spay glue, lacquer and paint. Hooked up like a dryer vent. Works really well. Pete
  23. Compound cut, Mini birdhouses or reindeer? Pete
  24. Very nicely done! For those who don't know, he was awesome! from wikipedia Freddie Mercury (5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991) was a British singer, songwriter and producer, best known as the lead vocalist and lyricist of the rock band Queen. Pete
