Oz: What are your thoughts on Redguard on top of concrete with a few hairline cracks prior to installing the porcelain tile?

 

Haven't used it , is it an elastomeric crack bridging product ?

 

Almost finished my Toy Box

 

What, how, where, why.....? What are we looking at besides your truck?

 

Grouted today

 

Looks good.

 

Thanks

 

Wrapped carport in T1-11 just waiting for my 18' X 10' garage door....

 

Whats the deal with the headers in the framed wall behind your truck ?

 

Was a open carport CMU & Beams were existing

 

Oh , yeah I thought you might have framed in a couple smaller garage doors or something

 

Bored in the shop today.

 

So after a lifetime I finally got to rig up and test my Veritas Cyclone lid with my 6.5HP Ridgid vacuum , tested it running a DeWalt 744X 10" tablesaw ripping cedar for about 2 1/2 hours straight























First run no bueno

Can caved in under static pressure



I realized the problem was that the black and orange hoses were different ID , the smaller orange hose being on the inlet was causing a airflow restriction , swapped them around , all good





32 gal Brute can 1/2 full



Only a trace in the vacuum and on the filter

 

Very nice!
Thought abought installing my .22 competition offhand custom carved oak grip on mine.
Hmmmm.......

 

Nice.

 

Love the dust collector Oz. Anyone ever use the Hitachi 8.5 inch slider?

 

Never used an 8.5 saw them mostly used by flooring guys.

 

I have a dewalt 8.5" slider that was a really good deal. If I had a do over I would have gotten a 10" easier to find blades and the 8.5" wont cut through a 4x4 in one pass.

 

Did you need to glue the inner short coupler piece to the gray conduit, or was fiction fit sufficient?

 

No glue

Before you start picking up bits and pieces , I may go back to shop vac couplers . The DB2 couplers work but the fit is really tight , and you need to support the lid fitting while attaching the hose , I'm going to see about switching that up
