Happy Birthday!

Yeah, that is pretty laughable for what I assume it’s going to cost. I think I’m going to pick up a drum sander now to just round everything out and ensure Steve has a complete shop to use once the adaption paperwork is complete. Trying to decide between the Powermatic 2244 and Supermax 25-50.

Possibly, it’s more the weight than the size I’m concerned with. We will see on how much they actually are. The wife strangely approved me to get whatever I wanted so... It’s lifetime (plus some) tool for sure. They all are really.

I’m with Steve, right tool for the job. The ping pong table can do everything a table saw can, but is no replacement for one.

I’ve decided to only buy tools that have a factory rep come out and verify setup and calibration. That Felder AS951 is calling to me.

Oh that would explain the desire to smash with the router. Could put the bevels on first then cut the parts down to size on the miter, or use the miter and clamp them in place.

Have you tried it on the table saw yet?

Mashing complete. Now to mount on the wall.

Well that saves me some time, thank you!

No help with the miter, but I did have some successful ping ponging. First time carving this in real wood.

I think it would really hurt if I attached one.

Because it’s a $5 plane or that I actually used it? 😂

Had to bust this old guy out today.

Considering this one. Seems very Head-Case. https://www.webstaurantstore.com/ceado-e37z-hero-single-dose-espresso-grinder-110v/385CDE37Z.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=GoogleShopping&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9_Pyt6nQ7gIVyFPVCh2_eQcYEAQYAiABEgI0ufD_BwE

I can confirm officially now that a computerized ping pong table is not a replacement for a jointer.

Ironically I have purchased a couple Japanese saws in the last couple weeks. I’m not against using hand tools at all, for some things they work better and faster than any power tool. But for more complicated things, my hands can’t repeat things within .001”.

I’m with you, Steve. I like doing the job, but I also like getting the job done. I also never see myself using a bow saw while listening to chamber music and sawing in time with the rhythm. Props to those that do though.

Put up some overhead board storage.

Build a frame with cross braces in the back and contact cement it to the frame. not sure I would want to be in an enclosed area with someone’s old mattresses though 🤮

Looks great!

Using the router and cleaning the edges with the chisel would be the faster method. White side even makes a corner chisel. Looks good to me though. I’m also no expert, but I think you might be using the wrong chisel.

Exactly what I did basically. Set the start depth at .0015. All done with a 90.

Thanks. So much to learn, so little time. No intentions of become a sign maker but it’s a little fun.

Re-did the lettering on the bottom.

Gag sign for a friend whose wife caught herself on fire while cooking. Learn something every time. Should have used a bolder font.
