my apologies for the sideways photos, still haven't figured out photos.... The trick with the photos is. always hold your phone in landscape mode, ie. long direction side to side, when taking them. I tend to set the aspect ratio as [1:1] myself, but that is just me. The way the phpBB software handl...

I see that guard was made for the Mark VII, I don't recall having seen it before. You are using the 5/8" universal arbor. Change the order of the washers and blade on the arbor to move the blade closer to the headstock. :) ie, from left to right. arbor, thin washer, blade, thick washer, tongue ...

I didn't get it hot enough to boil the water, and took it off burner (electric) once the wax had mostly melted. Heating in a water bath just makes it easier to not overheat the wax (can't get over 212 deg) My sense of smell is not very acute, I don't find the smell of the solvent unpleasant, but I a...

I have had to reconstitute my can of TreWax a couple of times, dropped the can during cold weather and the wax shattered. To avoid the risk of over heating, and fire, I put the can in a pot with an inch or so of water in it, and heated it on the stove over with a fairly low heat.

How over priced is this 10e? Was thinking about picking up something like this. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1207218600203009/ At the current $300 it's getting into the ballpark. I don't see the extension table, unless it is the board against the wall next to the steps, nor a 12" ...
