I believe that is a drying rack which I love I have one as well in my shed but this one is much nicer than mine. Yah same here I've heard of the shopsmiths but first time I've ever seen one with a bunch of the add ons Very cool - do they still make those?

I'm kinda in the same boat although I have bad knees, I just feel like my leg gets tired using a foot switch so I opted for a remote switch I keep on the table with the dust control switch, It's easily accessible for me to reach over and push the button. Plus my stool is too high for a switch without adding some platform to the base of the stool or to the bench in front of me. Either way, I've grown accustomed to the remote switch

I have a similar setup based on that top/bottom set up - works great and I get very little dust on the bottom - I also have my blower blowing the top dust towards the top dust port as well I also use a remote switch which turns on the saw and the overhead fan system Thinking of enclosing my shop vac though - it is so much louder than anything else in my shop LOL Thanks for the video

Nicely done! Thanks for sharing your projects

Lovely projects! Thanks for sharing

Nice one - thanks for sharing it

Love how you do those - thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing Phil - you make your own Dulcimers? Very cool!

Nice shop @munzieb - yah way too clean LOL I really like the bench your saw is on - very sturdy and very big! Thanks for sharing

Nice projects - good luck with the show. I would think your cannabis stuff would go over well, as well as that wolf and skulls - that's my thought anyway

Nice job Lew - thanks for sharing. It kinda does look like the pics I've seen of Doc H

Looks great Lew! You under sell yourself too much

Lindsey. Did you get the link in the other thread for this stool? If not let me know and I'll repost it.

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing it and your talent

That's what I thought as well! LOL - Nice job and thanks for sharing. Next time move the door LOL J/K!

Very nice - I remember you were looking for those books - glad you were able to complete your mission! Thanks for sharing

From what I've discovered Rusty, yes it will affect the wood - it will seep into the pores and may inhibit staining or finishing. I've not tried it with any of my cleaning fluids so I don't know this first hand, but it makes sense. Also, you may want it to affect the finish with the polish though - food for thought

HF has them really cheap at the moment

Thanks Len, sounds a bit more advanced for me at the moment :(

Super looking models - thanks for sharing

You all probably know this already, but it was an enlightening moment for me... First off: I'm in the process of cutting out letters - actually, trying to decide if it's better to cut letters or cut words. So far letters is winning for my needs since I only need 3 or 4 words. After making a dozen or so letters approximately 1/2" in size, I thought to myself "Self, these are going to be one time consuming bear to get the fuzzies off". So, I started to think... Hmm what can I do to speed this up... and "EUREKA"! I yelled! We are avid reloaders ( we reload 12 different calibers) and have a full loading room devoted to it so perhaps, our tumbler could be used to speed this up. I threw a bunch of the letters into our tumbler - which is loaded with Corn husks and set it tumbling for 45 Minutes Sure enough, at the end of the cycle all of the outside "fuzzies" were gone and just a few of the 'A". "P" and 'E"'s had just a small piece left inside which was easily removed! In case you opt to try this yourself remember the tumbler mixture should be dry. The corn cob in my tumbler had no residual wet chemical - it had dried out quite a while ago so nothing stained the letters/wood. For mixtures, you could use: corn cob (the cheapest), walnut shells (more expensive but a really good medium), bits of sand paper, buck shot (if you load your own shot gun shells) as well as marbles and more! Just thought I'd share in case anyone wasn't aware this worked. Thanks for reading
