    Only if we get a second stimulus check. I will buy me a new one and give him the old one.

    My son finally got bored and is cutting things out on the scroll saw. I need to get some of the blades Kevin got with his Dewalt because he is breaking a few while learning.

    I just got an email from my plywood source. They are now taking phone orders and you pick it up and load it. No interaction with the employees. If they deliver you must maintain 10’ separation and they takes picture no signing the invoice. At least I will be able to get some Baltic birch in the next couple of weeks (yeah!).

    Nice sign only it should read (out of toilet paper - hoarders of America).

    That was a project I had my 7th graders make first. They would use it on all their projects. Tools used: hand saw, hand plane and a hand drill.

    +1 that is how we maintain our sanity during the shutdown. There would be less domestic issues if your out in the shop all day.

    My local supplier and Kevin's is closed for a least two weeks. LLJOHNSONS Workbench. They were doing a pickup only until Michigan went on stay at home order. I missed getting some Baltic Birch by a few days. Now I have to wait awhile, still have plenty of hardwood. Looks I will be doing a lot of resawing.

    I guess you will be able to go 48 years until you buy another new blade. My blades don't last that long because I don't really cut enough to be good at it. Your blade must have been made from titanium I think Dewalt quit using titanium for blades 3 1/2 years ago.

    I have started reorganizing my shop and build a cradle my wife wants for her dolls. There is no better way to spend time since we need to restrict our travel.

    My woodworking club shop closed Monday and Tuesday so they can figure out what they want to do. I hope they let me get my tools out of my locker so I can turn things on my lathe at home. I have as much variety of tools and machines as they do except for a large lathe and 15" planer. I have enough wood for a few years of building projects.

    With so many people hoarding tp they should install a bidet. I got my months supply from Costco two hours before the mass run started.

    Looks great! The price is right less than what I paid for mine.

    Jim you are so close to Indianapolis did you get the woodworking show at the fair grounds? I always think about it but then since it's in the winter I don't like take a chance on the weather. A 2 1/2 hour drive on I69 is not nice in one stretch that becomes an ice rink. This year would have been nice but I was giving a presentation on the Tablesaw at the local woodworking store.

    I will stick with Johnson's Workbench wood expo the weekend after Labor Day. I usually drop enough money between wood and equipment it takes a toll on my shop budget. The rest on purschases are from the local woodworking store where I give presentations every now and then. I get a $50 gift certificate for each presentation which adds about $400 dollars to the budget. I always have my eye on something I don't need but get anyway. I always spend more than the certificates cover.

    If I had to make the plywood thinner I would use my drum sander. You would get better results and it would be safer.

    I buy it in 5x5 sheets and they cut it down for me into a 3' wide and 2' wide sheets. They have 4x8 sheets but the thinnest it comes is 1/2" and the cost per square foot is more expensive. I will stick with the 5x5 sheets.

    Nice addition, you should be producing some awesome intarsia very soon. It's always great to get new tools.

    No, I lucked out and accidentally set it the right distance from the flue. I had my son in law run the gas line. I hooked up the thermostat and electricity for the fan. I have had it installed for four years and no problems yet. I didn't check with my insurance company but several people have that type of heater installed around here. I will check to make sure I am ok with the insurance.

    I use a mr heater bigmaxx 50000 btu natural gas heat hanging from the ceiling. It only cost me an extra $120 a year to heat the garage to 68 degrees 24/7 in the winter.

    Here is my shop mess and all.

    For around $10 you can get a micro chuck and put it in your drill press.

    If you have lathe you can make a segmented ring and turn it on the lathe before attaching the top ring.

    That looks great! When I need a large copy of a pattern I save them up and print the pattern out on a plotter. I have access to the plotter when I substitute for the CAD teacher at the local vocational school. I can print 42" wide and the length needed.

    Excellent ideas now I need to choose which one will work for me. Decisions are always hard. I may try a variety to see which is best.
  25. Woodmaster1
    Awesome work. My son is a diehard Ohio State fan so maybe I will be able have him cut one. I will tell him that it is required of all Buckeye fans.
