Are you building the home and shop or designing the shop in an existing space? I am using two thirds of my basement for instance.

Nice review,,
@chadm Did you see this nice review?

Dude, I’ve been getting swamped with these morons on the other site I mod, a couple of weeks ago I deleted nearly 20 new members, all fake accounts.

Well….my new jiggy came in today 👍
Gotta love CPO. I got the 7.2 supposed to be in a cardboard box, for a phenomenal $149.99. What did they ship me????

Seriously. I love CPO, I have been saving my points for quite a while and can not get the 7.2 on the site and a, still saving ever so slowly for the axial glide. CPO has once again after years…[Read more]

Lie Nielsen low angle block plane. Finishing some edges on the new bench top 👍

It’s been in the 60s here all day. It was kind of chilly heading home today!

Thunderstorm came through NW Montana on Friday, news today reports 10 new fires started…. gonna be another one of those years.

That sucks bro, today was the first day in over a week and a half without any torrential down pours. I just saw some news updates about out west, we h…[Read more]

Same here. If I hear…”yeah but we need the rain”…from one more person I’m going to stuff my sock down their mouth. We got smashed last night with some really good thunder but it has been over a week and a half of heavy rains followed by cloud…[Read more]

I spent part of my afternoon yesterday trying to get some rust off of my Sawstop table. Yup, condensation from one of my copper pipes created a drop over a couple of weeks not in the shop and….
I tried Balistol and some steel wool, the iron is stained but the rust itself got knocked down. Not too happy about this, looks like I’ll be cleaning i…[Read more]

Congrats on your new tool, enjoy.

Why thank you sir. Actually pretty stoked to use this. Everyone I have talked to about it seems to really like the saw and I am hoping it tracks well because I specifically want to use this with some timber work 👍

Found it!

Bosch part #2601016093

Dang, that took a while. Hopefully will have the saw Monday or Tuesday 👍.

Will do! I am going to my local Woodcraft tomorrow to get some finish for the bench, my nephew has assured me he has a decent weather resistant finish for the dash….we will see

Beautiful work Jim, finish is really sweet. I will have to watch the video.

Beautiful work Ron! My wife got me a Fuji HVLP Semi Pro 2 for Christmas last year and it is a great kit!

So….I know it has been a little while but…
I just got a smoking deal on the JS572EB to replace my Carvex which I ended up selling because I was sick of the bases. Great jig, not a fan of the bases. Anyways, I digress, does anyone know if they make a splinter guard for the saw? I don’t posses the little beast yet, it is on the way and just in…[Read more]

Dude, congratulations! That is an awesome saw, I have the 36v brushed model and it kicks butt. I spent a lot of time last year with it on my ATV clearing riding trails for my Wife and Mother in Law. They make a phenomenal cordless chainsaw!
