Any woodworkers?

Cherry, Hickory, Maple and Walnut

 

Must have been fun playing with the puzzle pieces. Recipients should be happy.

I am waiting for someone who wants me to make another. For the remainder of the summer I have outside activities to focus on. Maybe later I will toy with more end-grain boards ... sooner if I am asked.

 

I don't do things because I am asked haha I do them because I can

 

You better hope it lasts a lifetime as they no longer produce it

 

Yeah, someone else mentioned this.. and I'm sure it'll out last me.

 

You can find it on ebay....but its not cheap

 

You can still get minwax paste wax and I prefer that on machinery. The sc Johnson is easier to spread on wood working though. As I've stated before I have also learned to make my own.

 

I feel like any carnauba paste wax will work.. even the stuff you put on your trucks

 

I think I have asked you this before but will you refresh my memory on what, if anything, you're using on the ends of your slabs that you're milling?
I'm about to mill a bunch of walnut and I'd like to do the right thing

 

I use anchor seal, the original formula. It works great! A 2 gallon pail will last a long time. I just use a disposable brush. If it's really nice wood I like to also do about and inch up on the flat and not just the ends.

 

Just make sure it doesn't have any silicone in it.

 

Thank you!

 

This gets good reviews, is on sale and appears to have two miter slots.

Who’s pulling the trigger first on the new M12 6” sander? I’d buy one in a minute if it was not battery powered.

 

I keep looking at the the 6” Festool Rotex. I don’t mind corded since it will be hooked up to the dust extractor anyway.

 

Price is the same at Lowes. Take it home with you, if your local store has it in stock.

 

I just bought the Bosch equivalent haven’t tried it out yet.

 

I went with the Ridgid R4518 for $359

 

Also upgraded to the Bauer 14 Inch bandsaw from Harbor Freight.

 

people have done some really cool setup with these portable saws.
