Oh that mild 45 chamfer is a nice look ! Thanks for the visual br549 ! I'm sure i can do the long edge chamfers pretty easily, but are the short edge (vertical) chamfers cut by hand ? Someone asked about the dimensions..i forget exactly at the moment but it is near 200 cu in. I think the interior di...

So I'm working on this burial ashes box for somebody. General shape/design is done but I keep looking at the top/base (light colored hard maple) and thinking I need to do something to those very square edges. I go back and forth between leaving it square as is, or softening either the horizontal edg...

Having started with powerPro, I came in not knowing any speed settings needed for each SPT. The sticker label listing the recommended RPMs was great back then when I hadnt internalized the values. The reported RPM on the LCD display in agreement with the label confirmed for me I had setup correctly ...
