  1. I'm not familiar with the HF. sander but just a heads up C.P.O. Tools has a Bosch refurbished ROS for forty bucks. Factory Reconditioned Bosch ROS20VSC-RT 5 in. 120V VS Palm Random Orbit Sander Kit with Canvas Carrying Bag I have the Bosch that I bought about four or five years ago( Refurbished) and it has performed flawlessly. You might check them out if you are thinking of getting a new sander. I'm sold on the refurbished tools personally.
  2. I have had a subscription for two years and I have not found anything in the magazine that I have cut. I guess I am a weird person, I don't like portraits or frilly fretwork, Like I said it's just how I am. I probably will not renew my subscription.
  3. Welcome from Kentucky Glad to have you here
  4. Clear silicone will do the trick.
  5. Also don't put the base color on too thin, I usually squirt a puddle of the base color and brush it around and add more if needed, I use the acrylic paint also.
  6. I prefer the Red with your wood choices, Nice box.
  7. I can't find the pattern for the body , but it is pretty simple I used 1/2" Baltic Birch ply for mine. You will have to size it when you print it out.
  8. If you have enough money to burn up a wet mule, then go for the best that's out there, otherwise as was said, i'm too old to get the best to leave for someone else to enjoy.I don't care how you go about it there's always someone out there improving technology. there is no getting ahead any more!
  9. Just curious, did you sand the plywood before you put the clear shelf liner on the wood? Sometimes the surface is sort of rough on luan ply. By the way, Very nice cutting.
  10. Sorry dgman, I wasn't degrading your state. Here's how we treat our water in Ky It takes about 7 years
  11. I'm surprised that California even allows water to be had, It does contain chemicals you know! Sure glad i live in Kentucky!
  12. I got some a couple of weeks ago but I have not been able to get to the shop to try them the back says forget about it right now, Getting old really sucks for sure!
  13. check out CPO tools.com. Reconditioned is the way to go.
  14. looks pretty normal from here, You should see mine LOL!! Nice setup you have there.
  15. Always nice to read positive feedback about a supplier. Glad you got good service.
  16. If you want a clear coat finish Go to Sherwin Williams and ask for a gallon of clear base. This is the base finish paint WITHOUT the color added. It looks milky before it dries but it will dry clear and last a long time outdoors. Try it you might really like it for your project.
  17. Great tip, thank you I just might swipe your idea!
  18. WOW, and it's in my neighborhood, Very close by but I don't have the room LOL!
  19. In a drawer, I never throw ANYTHING away!
  20. Sounds like a good fix I will have to do mine as you did, Thank's for the idea.
  21. I have the HF switch and it works like a switch, No problem so far I'm a cheapskate.
  22. Beautiful Job, I love the grain pattern, Well Done.
  23. I totally agree, but some people do it for some reason.
  24. Michael's Craft stores have it here. I get mine from Paxton Lumber in Cincy. good people and a great candy store for woodworkers.
  25. Nobody has guessed Cherry
