Re: Finishing a woodworking bench

Go ahead Marc..... do the right half with the oil finish and leave the left side natural. You'll have the best of both worlds! :)

My choice for what is worth, apply a nice oil finish for looks. Yeah, I'm a cosmetic kinda guy as you veterans here know.

Interested in opinions on a stain only???

Nice work Marc. The project end is in sight. Love the rolling caster design on the legs. How about posting a close up and link to them.

Re: Everything E / ER - Technical info, documentation, links

Time will tell dusty. I retired last Friday so I am going to have to find SOMETHING to do with all my time besides vacations, mountain biking, and driving Mrs. Daigle crazy. That last item is likely the easiest! :D True. It's a short trip! (On no honey, I wasn't talking about you. I was talking abo...

At 64, it's time to have 100% freedom from work responsibilities. Looking for a nice RV, our first. Wife REALLY wants small class B...

Re: mickyd here.  Gifted my ER10 to a friend. He needs admin registration help

JPG, I definitely agree with you. But I do know they love Phil’s BBQ. Pinky? Don’t know what that is. Pinkie was a concept machine for Mrs. Daigle, thinking she might like woodworking. Neither Pinkie nor wifey as a woodworker ever came to fruition. Pinkie idea goes back probably 8 years. When God w...

mickyd here.  Gifted my ER10 to a friend. He needs admin registration help

I gifted my ER10 to a friend who is a newbie woodworker.  You'll see him on the forum (user name 'joncast') as soon as he can resolve his registration problem.  I told him to contact Shopsmith custome...
