  1. Had to think about the Bats for a minute but I can see his Point!!!!!!!!
  2. I got them to open but they were slower that molasses in January.
  3. WOW You guys have way too much time on your hands!!!! Just make sawdust.
  4. Thanks Guys I retired for good June 16 and have not slowed down since. I think I may have to go back to work to get some rest. Had a great Birthday and hope to get some time to be part of the village again soon.
  5. Thanks for the info. I also have a 6in belt/disc sander that gets minimal usage. My wife has discovered the Steve Goods Vase patterns and she said that since I was retiring the middle of June I should have plenty of time to make her a bunch of these. I think the spindle would be great for that purpose. I have decided to get a spindle sander but was wondering if I should go ahead with the combo unit. I have read some of the reviews on all of the brands I am considering and a lot of them complains about not being able to get the table square to the belt on all the brands. Do any of you have this problem? I have looked at Rigid, Wen, Harbor Freight and Grizzly. Any other suggestions?
  6. I am considering buying a spindle sander. I have 2 questions. #1 is the spindle/ belt combination something that would get used a lot? #2 is the Rigid actually worth $120.00 more than a Wen or Harbor Freight model? I would like to hear what you guys that have either or models think. Thanks in advance. Larry
  7. Nice looking fire pit Frank. Yes the blocks are heavy. Dr released me after surgery two week ago since then I have unloaded 150 of the big ones 70 of the small ones and will be going back for another 100 big ones this week. Sawdust and Vaseline makes great fire starters. I always carried them in my survival kit.
  8. Are all of your the same species? I have cut 3/4 in with a 2/0 blade many times. If the wood is not the same the difference in the hardness will make a huge problem.
  9. I am just glad that i don't live in Moose territory.
  10. I have 2 Harbor freight framing nailers a 28degree and an adjustable. Both have had extensive use and are still working great. I would recommend the adjustable one that way you don't have to worry about which nails you grab. Sometimes I have found really good bums on some angles.
  11. That would be a good one to cut in an old vinyl record.
  12. Dave the blue pine that we get around my area is almost always shipped from Texas. I don't have any now to get a mill stamp but I would think it should be fairly easy to find..
  13. I love the color adding that you do to your projects. I had not thought about the multi species sides the you did it but it looks great. I saw that one and have it on my to do list if the DR ever lets me back in the shop.
  14. Not a huge Country fan but that was great. I see it was recorded before the recent death of Jeff Cook.
  15. And here I thought it was just the British spelling of it. You know like Tyres.
  16. Pretty sure that is a Diana Thompson pattern.
  17. There is an electricians ornament type pattern in the library here by @ Bob Scroll.
  18. I love that one!!!!
  19. When I subscribed to the magazines I would take the center pages to an engineering firm close to my work. They would make me copies of the center pages that I could cut up and scan in easily. I no longer subscribe and have not bought one in a while. This works really well and is not that expensive. I have found digital copies of a lot of the books I own on Scribe. The ones that I don"t have digital copies of I cut apart on the band saw and scan then I have a huge heavy duty 3 hole punch that I use to put them back in 3 ring binders.
  20. Well Jerry beat me to it. I knew I had the pattern just couldn't remember the name of it.
  21. Let me look tomorrow. I may know where to get it.
  22. Go very slow with them. They overheat with almost no pressure and will bend quickly. Don't ask me why I know this!!! I have a lot of Harbor Freight stuff that I am very satisfied with, but every drill bit I have ever bought from them except a set of Warrior wood bits have been crap.
  23. Just saw that myself. I really miss his posts. Never got to meet or interact with him but think we may have needed bail money if we had. RIP Less.
  24. I have found that if you just ignore them they will soon quit bothering you.
