Any woodworkers?

That's what she said

 

I’m too cheap for that, OMTech.

 

What model?

 

40 watt CO2

glowforge $4,000 vs OMTech $500

 

This, absolutely this. While you wont typically see catastrophic failures of ejecting your board, you will see a lot of delamination of the wood fibers on the side that exits the planer last. The planer blades peel the wood fibers off along the edge grain and it comes out looking like a hot mess. You can plan around this by building oversized and cutting square after the planer or by making a sacrificial frame/border that you cut off after the trips through the planer. I've built a frame around the board in the past and just zipped it off with the table saw after I was finished.

Went to the mill again today. Picked up some more oak and walnut, added curly maple and purple heart.

 

I love picking up wood!
I wish I could afford more of it though.

 

You must be rich!!!!!

 

Or foolish


Starting a business. Not rich, but hopefully not foolish.

 

Foolish can be fun!

 

That place is awesome (last photo). Not a whole lot of people know about it as it's in the middle of nowhere, aka 15 minutes from my house

But, it does stay busy constantly.

 

Started a business 6 years ago. You’ve got to to be slightly foolish.

I’m just now at the point where I’m starting to feel successful lol

 

Times like these I wish I had an Alaskan Mill…
